Glow by Lady E

I will be bringing 3 bags. The gig is out of town so I want to make sure that I have everything covered. This is the second bag which is my traincase. I’m not sure if I already showed this to you in a previous post but here it is anyway: This is the top level which houses “eye stuff”: On the left are “face stuff”: Right side, a jumble of stuff: And in the center, yup, you guessed it! Yes, that’s the Urban Decay Book of Shadows III. It was available at Hyphen but I sold out on the last bazaar: Stay tuned for part 3!

I’m ready to go to my makeup gig tomorrow! I only have one traincase so I put the other makeup in my megabox but the plastic container couldn’t support the weight so I went to Muji yesterday in search for the perfect makeup bag. Lo and behold: (I wanted to do a video post on this but I’m still too lazy as I just woke up.) Edit: This was supposed to be uploaded this morning but the Internet was so freaking slow. I love this bag because it’s lighter than a regular traincase. It has no divisions inside but nothing a little creativity wouldn’t fix. There are 4 compartments outside the bag. I put my falsies in the front pockets. Here’s the cover inside, another compartment: This is the top portion: On the right side I have my palettes and the huge toner from Etude House: More palettes underneath plus  my Revlon Photo Ready foundies and lippies: The other lippies are already on the palette with the silver clasp on the left. I hate bringing tubes. There are holde...

Here’s a closer look at the pink and yellow eye look I did for our muse: Primer: Lemon Aid (available at Hyphen ) Eyeshadow: Wet n Wild palette Too Faced Pixie Pin-ups (available at Hyphen ) Too Faced Glamour To Go Fairy Edition (available at Hyphen ) Liquid liner: T. LeClerc

Hello ladies! Please be patient with my giveaway. I’m asking MB to do a little project for me and until that’s finished, my giveaway has to wait for its turn. The two are somewhat connected. I’m also looking for more sponsors to make this a really good giveaway. Thanks for your patience!

You all know that my regular muse is my cousin C. One day when I was out with my best friend of 24 years, I told her that if her..ehem..granddaughter L needed my services as MUA to just tell me. (My best friend C is only 30-ish. L is her granddaughter from a niece. She’s not old.) Fortunately, she did! She was joining the Santacruzan. Here she is, getting prepped by Ninang C: Isn’t she adorable? Here’s what I did for her eyes: Here’s the final look: I used the Fanny Serrano dual finish foundation on her and it stayed the whole night! The Japanese Kawaii pose is a must ! Here’s the 3 of us with my best friend C. I was only able to do her eyes as we were pressed for time. They were getting ready for the procession at this stage. Sorry for the haggarda versoza look. Of course I didn’t bother retouching my makeup. I applied makeup in the morning before going to church and didn’t bother touching up when I got home. I just changed clothes then went to my appointment. I super...

I wore this look on a day out with my cousin C. We went to the mall for some shopping. I remember that day being so warm that I decided to wear my blue polka dot dress as it was light and cool.     Yeah, I know C dominates this photo but you can at least see the dress. And yeah, this was at Rustan’s Ladies Room. LOL.   Because I was wearing blue, I opted for blues and grays for my eyes. I am happy to report that  I’m not scared of blue anymore.           I used my Too Faced Glamour To Go Fairy Edition palette for this look. I added sparkles to the inner corners of my eyes just because I felt fabulous in spite of the heat. I got a lot of compliments with this look. I feel really proud when MUAs compliment a look that I made myself.     I used my bright pink lip & cheek color pot from Etude House on my lips. More on that on a future post. I always wear my hair up on really hot and humid days. I just can’t stand ...

I know this is an overdue post but forgive me as I had the SuperSale bazaar to attend to a day after this event. I was there bright and early as I know everybody from Bobbi Brown was excited and I wanted to be there to show my support. After all, I got the invite more than a month before this event was even given a specific date. And true enough, everybody was at their best. Here are photos: The event was held at the Grand Mall area. When I got there, people from the PRESS were being entertained. Oh boy, did they have fun with the makeovers and the photo sessions. That’s Kai Vinson’s spot. Of course, he was the leader of the pack. The Bobbi Brown team was in full force. Here’s Dennis from Shangri-La getting busy with a client: Here’s Owell working his magic on Sugar: Ms. Mona, the counter manager was uber busy! She was walking back and forth from the counter inside the mall to the event outside, in heels nonetheless! This photo was taken after the event. I couldn’t get ...
