Where Have I Been?

Howdy!<br /><br />Wow, I've been out of commission for a week! What happened? Let me tell you how funny life is: the moment I was so determined to do a big revamp on the blog content and post more was also the time my hand decided to give up.<br /><br />About 2 years ago, I had a strain on my right pointy finger that put me out for a week. I took a butt load of anti-inflammatory medicine and muscle relaxer and basically, I was out cold until I recovered. Since then, every time I get stressed out and every time it rained, I have this achy feeling on my right hand. The last time was around last November when I wrote my thesis. It was not a cool time for me and I was in a hand brace almost all the time.<br /><br />Then, last week it felt like my wrist would twist out of my arm. I was so hurt and slept with the brace since then. I can do a bit of typing here and there but full fledge blogging is a bit too much for me right now. Today, I feel a bit better so I blog a little bit. I really miss you guys and I really miss blogging.<br /><br />Also, if you haven't joined My Makeup Blog's 2nd Anniversary Giveaway yet, there's still time.

Also, <a href="http://etsy.com/shop/formulaDminerals">Formula D</a> is participating in the Christmas in July blowout sale on Etsy.

Belly at Large: Hand Cream of Dead!

Hello home people!<br /><br />Yeah, that's what you're going to get when you call me "home kitty". Again, only the mamarazzi gets the honor to call me that. Why, you may ask. Because she <i>feeds me</i>, roar!<br /><br />Anyways, I'm going to cool down a little bit. It's too early to pick a fight on human. Besides, it gets in the way of my global domination plan. The last time I did it, I was in trouble. Remember <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/belly-at-large-naughty-corner.html">this post</a>?

The mamarazzi has been greening up her body care products. She bought it because it doesn't have parabens and petroleum by products but has shea butter and other lovely oils inside. I know she likes it because this hand cream keeps her hand moist and all.<br /><br />But it freakin' burned my nose, man! The thing has peppermint oil inside and every time she touched me, it burned! So I gave her a bit of warning by pressing my tender claws on her pristine skin. Little did I know, my nails needed some manicures.

Luckily, she doesn't kiss me. Eventually, we came to an understanding: she will not use the hand cream of dead when she's around me and I shall not give her my claws of dead. It was a good deal. The mamarazzi was so lucky.<br />The lesson is: humans, please don't use anything that contains pepper, peppermint, or hot chilli pepper when you're near cats. We don't like it and we will reciprocate by giving your our claws of dead or teeth of dead. This product is not bad, according to human standard. If it didn't contain peppermint, I could have even enjoyed it more.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji2mec4CwgbhW8UHF7VE2VX-Xv-xjLEiSqunxfNILgWvPrgKvxGuXdFtSsJx8Tz3TPLewB5lbQ68mvMgl0Cy86_-FAZfVR1i3Nn6ikftFkQBnEn5eoS3nB2hrA0S74EJCmsn_i2DDX6OE/s1600/IMG_1882.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji2mec4CwgbhW8UHF7VE2VX-Xv-xjLEiSqunxfNILgWvPrgKvxGuXdFtSsJx8Tz3TPLewB5lbQ68mvMgl0Cy86_-FAZfVR1i3Nn6ikftFkQBnEn5eoS3nB2hrA0S74EJCmsn_i2DDX6OE/s400/IMG_1882.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Latest picture of moi.

I've never used so many eye colors in one look before. My norm is about 3-4 eye shadows/look. I highly encourage you to watch the YouTube video carefully before you attempt this look. Also, using proper tools is a must. Michelle used something that looked like MAC 217, 219, and Loew-Cornell 1/4' Maxine's mop in her video. These brushes are very useful not just for this look but in a lot of looks. I used EcoTools crease brush to apply the hot pink color as it gives me better precision.<br /><br />I love the new NYC creme blush very much. It is so pigmented and easy to blend. Also Urban Decay XXX Shine lip gloss is a lot shinier than MAC lip glass but is a lot less sticky. I received it as a gift from my friend Sooji and I really treasure it.<br /><br />What do you think?<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/?action=view&current=endcredit.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/endcredit.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /></td></tr></tbody></table>P.S: If you like my blog, please <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"><img alt="" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon16x16.png" style="border: 0pt none; vertical-align: middle;" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml">subscribe to my feed.</a> Thanks a lot!

Hi everyone,Purple is the new neutral, that's what they said. Recently, I browsed the web and saw this look that Michelle Phan did called "Moonlight Seduction". After watching the video for about 4 times, I realized I have the stuff to do this look and set forth to do it. My Moonlight Seduction look…

I managed to finish my master's degree, which was a pain at some point. I got to be with my mom for six straight months, which was the longest time I've ever spent with her in 9 years. The blog got noticed by companies and I started to receive products to review around this time last year. The companies that sent me products trusted me enough to hold giveaways. To be honest, a big part of me having this blog is being able to give back to my readers. Doing reviews on new items is nice but being able to share the products with you is even better. I am so glad to be able to do so many times over and over again.<br /><br />Another good thing happened to me is opening <a href="http://etsy.com/shop/formulaDminerals">Formula D Minerals</a>. So far, the patrons to my Etsy shop are friends and readers. I can't thank you enough to support my shop and give me positive ratings. Of course, Formula D is new and definitely needs your patronage. (And there's a bonus sale going, please don't forget that!)<br /><br />With this blog, I get to meet new people everyday and I really enjoy the interactions. You guys are the best readers anybody can wish for. I am so lucky to have an opportunity to entertain you. Also, I feel very fortunate to become friends with some of you. It does not feel like just a place to mark my existence online anymore. After two years, this thing feels real. (You may think this is silly but those who blog know what I mean *smile*)<br /><br />The past birthdays since I started blogging here:<br /><ul><li>2008: <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/first-fotd-in-with-blues.html">first FOTD</a> (didn't know how to use the camera, ended up with yellow cast photos!), watched Kung-fu Panda with friends</li><li>2009: celebrated my birthday with <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/guess-whos-birthday-girl.html">MAC products</a>. Coincidentally, MAC FF sale was near my birthday. I still love the brushes I bought.</li></ul>This year, I'm waiting for my orders from Sephora and E.L.F. It's nice to celebrate birthdays with makeup, by the way. It's the gift that keeps on giving :)<br /><br />And while we're talking about makeup, please don't forget to participate in My Makeup Blog's <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/my-makeup-blogs-second-birthday.html">Second Birthday Giveaway.</a><br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/?action=view&current=endcredit.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/endcredit.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"> </td></tr></tbody></table>P.S: If you like my blog, please <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"><img alt="" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon16x16.png" style="border: 0pt none; vertical-align: middle;" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml">subscribe to my feed.</a> Thanks a lot!

Since it's for teens, the cut is a bit small for adults. If you wear a medium size t-shirt for adult, this one will fit you.<br /><br />Also, Yes to Carrots lip products are my most favorite organic lip stuff I've ever found. Some people compared the lip gloss to MAC lip gelee and I do agree.<br /><br />Each prize package worths $200+ USD. I'm not kidding, they are good stuff.

Bling Out with NYC Starry Silver Glitter Nail Polish

Hi everybody,<br /><br />I hope you are having a long holiday so far. Since July 4th fell on Sunday, we the people in the U.S of A also have Monday off. That's awesome, isn't it? Lately, I had an urge to bling out my nails. NYC makes it easy and affordable for me to do so with Starry Silver glitter nail polish.<br /><br />Let's see:<br /><ul><li>The price: 99 cents</li><li>The level of awesomeness: endless!</li></ul>I did a quick bling out French tip last week and here's how it looks:<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtF13UiB2PlTJC_a-CiruJ8jmLNi2YdWyKKq0KdWDwYhFNyCC8RSi6xGo7H3HuDXjWU9VM3J8830udrjYBc0GRfl8sRfbkI4faPp9twUOQZTOYVUS9XgPv3wK1XJuJR7o9gEwZ_3H7f9A/s1600/IMG_2059.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtF13UiB2PlTJC_a-CiruJ8jmLNi2YdWyKKq0KdWDwYhFNyCC8RSi6xGo7H3HuDXjWU9VM3J8830udrjYBc0GRfl8sRfbkI4faPp9twUOQZTOYVUS9XgPv3wK1XJuJR7o9gEwZ_3H7f9A/s640/IMG_2059.JPG" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">A different take on French tip</td></tr></tbody></table><a name='more'></a>Normally, I am not a French tip kind of girl. Don't get me wrong, I used to do it because French tips do go with everything. However, when they chip, the look is just horrible. Also, I am not ambidextrous so the nails on my left hand always ended up looking a lot better than those on my right hand. With DIY French tips, that's a big no no.<br /><br />With this bling out version of French tips, I don't even need to worry about the evenness. As long as I pack my brush with enough glitters, my tips will look fine.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXVEDXKHUDy_06UEGAho0zF7O3Ijd_AXcAAstGIQAun3sBu-GV4i-GcCUSNSTaY3yRYzMtPHw33iNgwcav5MpYNqQjXOi4xm56IjRW05VxWMOC488SNZsLbiXZrnb41HYyJtpXlW-WrsA/s1600/IMG_2060.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXVEDXKHUDy_06UEGAho0zF7O3Ijd_AXcAAstGIQAun3sBu-GV4i-GcCUSNSTaY3yRYzMtPHw33iNgwcav5MpYNqQjXOi4xm56IjRW05VxWMOC488SNZsLbiXZrnb41HYyJtpXlW-WrsA/s640/IMG_2060.JPG" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">A closer look at the nail polish bottle and the nails themselves</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_jN8PdtPLVC0O8afCydFBMV1fiydoszTL5IITxgXOBcgOCiQQNV5FJR9wcagis5bzLy4I6RD1cxnjtPBx8dyn2nWOg5PnVAvpwsQmHA1NNh3Ib7FAOjTwj0zWHNaOGzX7UALwJrqFfak/s1600/IMG_2070.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_jN8PdtPLVC0O8afCydFBMV1fiydoszTL5IITxgXOBcgOCiQQNV5FJR9wcagis5bzLy4I6RD1cxnjtPBx8dyn2nWOg5PnVAvpwsQmHA1NNh3Ib7FAOjTwj0zWHNaOGzX7UALwJrqFfak/s400/IMG_2070.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Don't believe me about the lack of messiness? This is my right hand :)</td></tr></tbody></table>Please don't mind my raggy looking nails. Obviously, I need to apply more hand creme to my cuticles :)<br /><br />I love this cheap glittery nail polish. It has small white glitters and larger purple and blue ones. The large glitters may be harder to fish out but you need 3-4 of them for each tip. Two coats will give you enough large glitters.<br /><blockquote>How to do the bling out French tips:<br /><ol><li>Apply base coat to your nails<br /></li><li>Apply 2 coats of Starry Silver glitter nail polish to the tip area of your nail. The thickness should be about 1/5-1/4 the length of your nail. Wait in between coat for your nail polish to dry. </li><li>Apply quick 2 coats of dry top coat and voila, you're done!</li></ol></blockquote>This is very simple yet glamorous. Even I, the one who has two left hands when it comes to nails, can do it. I hope you'll enjoy this bling out French tip nail trick.<br /><br /><a href="http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/?action=view&current=endcredit.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y33/shortylam/endcredit.png" /></a> P.S: If you like my blog, please <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"><img alt="" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon16x16.png" style="border: 0pt none; vertical-align: middle;" /></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/MyMakeupBlog" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml">subscribe to my feed.</a> Thanks a lot!
