>>2008 SUMMER HOLIDAY>>

As mentioned on my previous post, I'd be posting some photos during our summer holiday, and here they are! :)

>>MINI GOLF COURSE>>

This is how you do it!

>>DOCK MUSEUM (Barrow-in-Furness)>>

Ahoy, Capitan!

Sam pretending to be an attentive pupil

Miss, is wasn't me! It was him!

>>PLEASURE BEACH: BLACKPOOL>>

Sam feeling big boy queueing on his own (He doesn't need his mummy anymore :( *sniff sniff...

>>SEALIFE: BLACKPOOL>>

Sam's such a drama queen and yes, you've got it right... A QUEEN!

We desperately tried to catch this beautiful sunset on our way back from Blackpool

Still trying to catch that sunset (Ulverston, Cumbria)

>>FURNESS ABBEY RUINS (BARROW-IN-FURNESS)>>

I thought this was beautiful

Sam and I getting fit. Yeah, right!

Sam kept making me run

We didn't do a lot this time as we mainly went on holiday to relax. I've tried to be fair to my boys this time that I didn't drag them shopping with me for a change :). It was the first time that I gave a visit to the candle factory a miss. In the past two years, I've always nipped in the place to haul some scented candles (I'm mad about them!), but I've still got loads from our previous visits.

I think my next break would be towards end of November to visit London for a few days and hoping to spend our 3rd anniversary in Paris next year.

For now... it's back to reality... work, work and work... :)

TTFN!

Summer Holiday

>>I'M BACK!>>

First of all, I would like to congratulate team GB for doing great at the Beijing Olympics. Having been able to take the 3rd place on medal ranks... not bad for a small country eh! I may not be British by blood but I'm damn so proud of you guys. Well done and keep it up for 2012 in the home ground! C'mon guys... make us proud once again :)



Congratulations to team USA as well! I think everyone had eye on Michael Phelps who's done an impressive performance throughout the game. I can't wait to see the London Olympics! Anyone wants to join us? :)

... and of course to my fellow beauty bloggers! Gosh, I miss you guys... I miss reading your blog posts and I miss posting as well. Welcome Jamie (http://mismakeup.blogspot.com/)! I beleive this is not your first blogsite but still... welcome and congratulations on your new site. I look forward to reading your posts (packed with great FOTDs and reviews for sure ;)). Thank you to those of you who have left comments and messages whilst I was away... it was great to check my blog again and find some sweet messages and comments ;)

>>MY HOLIDAY>>

We've had a great holiday at the Lake District. We've been visiting the place in the past 2 years and being there feels like a second home to me. I would say it's the most beautiful place in England.

It was another great holiday and I'm already looking forward to our next one.

What about you?

What did you do during your summer holiday?

Did you go or/and do anything exciting?

Would you like to share it with us?

What would be your ideal holiday?

I'd be posting another article of our holiday... and photos? Maybe ;)

TTFN!!!

CAM WHORING: RED (A trying hard red) ;)

>>CAM WHORING: ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO CONQUER MY REDS ;)

Hello guys! I'd be going on holiday for 10 days and as sis Nikki has requested, I'm leaving another FOTD in reds. However, I haven't got much time to put the details about the make up I've used, I'd be editing this post soon I'm back from holiday. For those of you who can't wait for 10 days ;)... I've used Shu Ueumura eyeshadow in Me Red to create my eye make up teamed with Me Black (another Shu E/E) on the lower outer corned of my lash lines blended with Me Red on the inner corner of my lower lash lines.

See you again soon guys! Take care all of ya and I'll be missing you and your post!!!

CAM WHORING: NYX &ELF

>> CAM WHORING: NYX & ELF MAKE UP (AND AN UNWANTED HORRIBLE SPOT! GRRR...!)

WARNING! 100% PURE CAM WHORING (Sorry to disappoint anyone but my blog doesn't contain any pornographic materials ;))

After seeing red eye make up from fellow bloggers such as Jheng, Mhean and Shen, I wondered if the colour would suit me and what's the better way to find out than trying it on myself?

However, as you'll see on photos (lots of them ha ha ha!) below, although I honestly tried to pull off a red eye make up but it turned out to be pink :( sadly. I think I have not been able to choose the right shades of red. Never mind... I'll have another go using my 120 palette and Shu Uemura make up to find out if it's the colour or is it really me who's hopeless with reds.

...and of course, I'd also like to emphasize that I have used NYX and E.L.F. make up in this FOTD (turned cam whoring - surprise surprise!), instead of my high end ones... well, aside from my foundations and pressed powder.

In this photo, I wore the following:

EYES:

Highlight: NYX Single E/S in Skin (ES83)

Eye Lids: NYX Single E/S in Sunset (ES85)

Creases and Lower Lash Lines: NYX Single E/S in Burgundy Pearl (ES158)

Upper Lash Lines: E.L.F. Brightening Eye Liner in Black

CHEEKS:

Blusher: NYX Powder Blush in Desert Rose (PB17)

LIPS:

Lip Liner: E.L.F. Feather Proof Moisturizing Lip Liner in Bitter

Lipstick: E.L.F. Custom Lips in Sugar Plum

Lipstick: E.L.F. Custom Lips in Crimson (on top of sugar Plum)

I'll be going on 10 days summer holiday up north of the country and I won't be able to update my blog for that period of time. I'd be missing you guys but I'll catch up soon as I come back from my holiday. Have fun everyone with your summer holiday! Don't forget to slap on those sunscreen lotion :)

TTFN!!!
