Super Bass FOTD

Hi everyone, <br /><br />So, I'm a fan of Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass." It's one heck of a catchy song. I found myself singing "boom baloom boom boom baloom boom bass" a lot during the summer. Just check it out:<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="284" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4JipHEz53sU" width="500"></iframe><br />On top of that, I like how colorful her makeup is in the music video. Take a look at this:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqiyHW0Am-eyKZ1mGG2zVOVV3jpiJhwr_Di8TSpjE0E1AaVF2B6VUUb0cj9fGKtJeuX2zjbR_08HbbtYtped2Xy2rm4ZeQhh2ND7QcUHikZNJYeKfJ1R4uKXqW_hCWDAv1wwtvwjlbxs7j/s1600/nicki+minaj+super+bass.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="338" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqiyHW0Am-eyKZ1mGG2zVOVV3jpiJhwr_Di8TSpjE0E1AaVF2B6VUUb0cj9fGKtJeuX2zjbR_08HbbtYtped2Xy2rm4ZeQhh2ND7QcUHikZNJYeKfJ1R4uKXqW_hCWDAv1wwtvwjlbxs7j/s640/nicki+minaj+super+bass.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />After some careful studies of the pictures, I came to a conclusion that it's an easy look. I can totally do it. And I did, but it came with a sliiightly small problem: the electricity decided to go kaput when I started doing my makeup.<br /><br />Wow!<br /><br />Therefore, I did this look mostly in the dark and when I couldn't stand it anymore, I ran outside to get some sunlight. It was quick, only took me half an hour from start to finish, and I wore it out today. I got some compliments on it, too.<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/AVvXsEhfrm0kO2-Y5LZOWWEF8I2RAWXu3J4RDnli2u8EmIOwyHJ-shoktniJpiyehTJDwWkagr6d4mWQzmPAm-B-DOggDnTfMDuvpM0Qt0kJnEvMFSqI4vp60sSRzNdKy0NcWJDddGc_mtvI_ocB/s1600/IMG_4685.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfrm0kO2-Y5LZOWWEF8I2RAWXu3J4RDnli2u8EmIOwyHJ-shoktniJpiyehTJDwWkagr6d4mWQzmPAm-B-DOggDnTfMDuvpM0Qt0kJnEvMFSqI4vp60sSRzNdKy0NcWJDddGc_mtvI_ocB/s640/IMG_4685.JPG" width="450" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Super Bass FOTD<br />Can you hear the boom baloom boom baloom boom bass?</td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: center;"><b>What I used:</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsLCf8eeQdZaYYjA8k-aw1MAOOYpfjDsECTshW_5YpCVzw7e_XOd5USsb8Rf1gFRLXIhWWYuSlnA9BRuXCF0BLfomQMjxijeuYSX0Fsccd03LVSSWqbzK1Wo7tOEU7HV7zfcRac2yKA5o0/s1600/IMG_4728.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsLCf8eeQdZaYYjA8k-aw1MAOOYpfjDsECTshW_5YpCVzw7e_XOd5USsb8Rf1gFRLXIhWWYuSlnA9BRuXCF0BLfomQMjxijeuYSX0Fsccd03LVSSWqbzK1Wo7tOEU7HV7zfcRac2yKA5o0/s640/IMG_4728.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Eyes</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><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/AVvXsEh6wBM1kZrPWL95xKKKFAAmQAJKc54ZQ1nMRbfpZ86wZkU8-1tDkSS0qm2FrfgeyeGDKf1hIIeVOJ4m0kdh219qQTRpsHYmYp1RWHq4tgPcl5WkYIHtCAi60VvyFNOs5iLdo4CbekyI0OzQ/s1600/IMG_4730.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6wBM1kZrPWL95xKKKFAAmQAJKc54ZQ1nMRbfpZ86wZkU8-1tDkSS0qm2FrfgeyeGDKf1hIIeVOJ4m0kdh219qQTRpsHYmYp1RWHq4tgPcl5WkYIHtCAi60VvyFNOs5iLdo4CbekyI0OzQ/s640/IMG_4730.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Coastal Scents original 88 palette: (top down) second yellow from the second column on the left and (bottom up) 4th pink from the seventh column from the left<br />Yellow mineral pigment left from my mineral makeup making days</td></tr></tbody></table> I really don't know what kind of base and yellow eyeshadow Nicki Minaj's makeup artist used. The pigmentation of her yellow makeup is intense. I layered a white pencil liner as a secondary base before applying the CS matte yellow eyeshadow. No popping. Nothing. It looked dull. So I applied the yellow mineral pigment on top.<br /><br />Now, this mineral pigment is intense. A little bit goes a long way, you know the drill. But yet, it managed to look like this:<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/AVvXsEiNIonqpRFQaYLgftswB4Kouo0Ycs2HUqvOVl0gn4uGEtFzQs_O-N4NNV40oOhK7UxyposInPQgh7UuEZhmw6YRslpXCPCCo8E-CVa2RzDdT1bcs5L-1e9MxwsH2tjjfkMO4mTbye__zK1M/s1600/IMG_4698.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNIonqpRFQaYLgftswB4Kouo0Ycs2HUqvOVl0gn4uGEtFzQs_O-N4NNV40oOhK7UxyposInPQgh7UuEZhmw6YRslpXCPCCo8E-CVa2RzDdT1bcs5L-1e9MxwsH2tjjfkMO4mTbye__zK1M/s400/IMG_4698.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Oh, yellow pigments, where art thou?<br />Picture taken indoor, hence the green hue that I loath!</td></tr></tbody></table> The pink under eye liner was peachy: VS chubby eyeliner in Pink Flash as a base before applying CS pink eyeshadow. At least this one looks decent.<br /><br />Maybe next time when I do something similar, I'll wet the brush and foil the pigment to have a more intense eye look. Also, I wish I had Pixie Epoxy. It would surely make the yellow pigment pop.<br /><br />Eyeliner: L'Oreal HiP eyeliner in Black Shock<br />Mascara: something from Estee Lauder. It's a decent lengthening mascara but the name managed to rub off   :(<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Lips</b></div><div style="text-align: left;">I don't have MAC Pink 4 Friday and I'm sure Nicki Minaj used it in this video.

Fitness Report #8

Hi everyone, <br /><br />It felt like yesterday when I wrote the <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/fitness-report-1.html">first Fitness Report</a>. Now, we are at number 8. Two months had passed since my first attempt to Zumba. Time flies when you're having fun, isn't it?<br /><br />It feels like every time I go to the gym, I learn something new. Last Saturday, I met a new trainer and we prompted to chat. Now, I'm not a chatty kind of person but the trainers in this gym are really nice. Some of them even spend time to get to know me and answer my questions. This trainer asked me about my fitness regimen and I told him I work out 1 hour/day, 5 days a week. He told me in order for me to lose weight, I need to work out a bit longer (1.5 hrs/day, 5 days a week.) He explained to me the type of diet that I should follow (less carb, more fruits, veggies, and lean meat.) Basically, no starvation but exercise a bit longer.<br /><br />He told me this piece of information that's so crucial I need to share with you:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Remember to stretch.</span></i></b></div><br />For the last few weeks, I've had this nagging pain on my right side. Once, it was so severe that another trainer had to pull me out of the stretching machine to manually stretch out my muscles himself. After that, I felt a whole lot better.<br /><br />According to this trainer, when you exercise, your muscles expand and then coil back together. If you do not stretch, they will remain coiled. In a long run, this will lead to shortening of the muscles, which leads to pain and probably injuries. He advised me to hold the stretches as long as possible and spend more time on stretching than before. The Mayo Clinic has <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/stretching/SM00043&slide=2">a slideshow of stretches</a> that everyone should follow.<br /><br />Anyhoo, here is my fitness report on week 8:<br /><br /><ul><li>Monday: skip</li><li>Tuesday: Zumba party + weight training for arms and upper body   1hr 05min</li><li>Wednesday: Activate + Flat abs                                                     1 hr</li><li>Thursday: Concert + weight training for arms and upper body         1hr 20min</li><li>Friday: skip</li><li>Saturday: gym with abs training                                                       1hr 05 min</li><li>Sunday: Exhilarate + weight training for arms and upper body          1hr 30 min</li></ul><div>Total amount of time: <u><b>6 hours!</b></u></div><div><br /></div><div>Woo hoo! I've wanted to exercise 6 hours a week but could not quite make it. I was close to it last week and I believed I could reach this landmark. And it was paid off. I lost 1 kg (2.2lbs) this week, yay! Also, I think coupling cardio exercises with weight training helps. For the last 2-3 weeks, the scale almost did not move. I believe I hit plateau then. Upping my workout helps. Therefore, I am going to keep the same intensity this week and see how it goes.</div><div><br /></div><div>Last but not least, I wanted to do the Concert and Exhilarate DVDs in the Zumba Exhilarate set for a very long time. I tried the later DVD once but could not move pass the first 5 minutes. It was fast and intense. Now, not only could I do one, I finished two and I could not be any prouder.</div><div><br /></div><div>Again, thank you for showing me your support. I hope you are exercising with me as well. Believe me, if I can do it, so can you.</div><br />Last but not least, have you joined <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/specific-beauty-skincare-giveaway.html">my latest skincare giveaway</a> yet?<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;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">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!</span></td></tr></tbody></table>

What Have Happened to My Eyelashes?

Hi everyone,<br /><br />Last night, while I was playing around with my Shu lash curler, I could not believe my eyes of how beautiful my lashes currently are. Back in the days, I used a ton of mascara to coax out the three lashes that were visible. No matter how much I curled them and how many coats of mascara they had, the lashes just refused to show. Bah, humbug, right?<br /><br />But now, look at these bad boys:<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/AVvXsEjE6nBDFfxNDKZzpSr6TtcJsVEvynb9IrtJd5UjrjeccxMcEyxr9xMhLvIV30Sq-PKoZaWd87lEhTF-lRTT-3NJEyQR_vfxpORpLhdT-rPTgN4zbXjYY3MpNP1wUme3mx3xRscoCpyeeodt/s1600/IMG_4669.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE6nBDFfxNDKZzpSr6TtcJsVEvynb9IrtJd5UjrjeccxMcEyxr9xMhLvIV30Sq-PKoZaWd87lEhTF-lRTT-3NJEyQR_vfxpORpLhdT-rPTgN4zbXjYY3MpNP1wUme3mx3xRscoCpyeeodt/s400/IMG_4669.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Visible lashes are visible!<br />No mascara needed, yay!</td></tr></tbody></table><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/AVvXsEiWr39nT0ZrhRJWQanS6uyNUTwSzCfA87xeK8lBHOnjsdpOJFrFZ3d5XcTRdZjnSq8qmt-j0hyaJaV4t9QM__mUTnv4Ze6So5K_FhsWocos6CMm2jGGKaM-d_Sw7jZWKsqW7qaRGh-6Ues6/s1600/IMG_4670.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="321" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWr39nT0ZrhRJWQanS6uyNUTwSzCfA87xeK8lBHOnjsdpOJFrFZ3d5XcTRdZjnSq8qmt-j0hyaJaV4t9QM__mUTnv4Ze6So5K_FhsWocos6CMm2jGGKaM-d_Sw7jZWKsqW7qaRGh-6Ues6/s400/IMG_4670.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">My lashes are longer, too.</td></tr></tbody></table><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/AVvXsEitPgYACfx9kmqrkzNfzrbG70Okdbicf5xUHnNWqmIFFvF72JRP-t065VgvfioMh0g_jJF2KkItw9JLLlPk0lC12erAlenZlYV78Gj0koa3iQ-saK2qXrvB0_iloXTu0XqW9BcYzbnYjt7F/s1600/IMG_4671.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="335" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitPgYACfx9kmqrkzNfzrbG70Okdbicf5xUHnNWqmIFFvF72JRP-t065VgvfioMh0g_jJF2KkItw9JLLlPk0lC12erAlenZlYV78Gj0koa3iQ-saK2qXrvB0_iloXTu0XqW9BcYzbnYjt7F/s400/IMG_4671.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">And it feels nice to have longer lashes :)</td></tr></tbody></table>I wish I knew why my lashes are longer. Perhaps the humidity helps my lashes grow? But I know for sure that I don't curl my lashes that often anymore and I definitely don't use waterproof mascaras. Therefore, the lashes are not being agitated as much. But that's just my theory.<br /><br />But still, I don't have a full lash line and I can't change that. Genetically, this is how my lashes are going to be and I'm just happier that they look so much longer now.<br /><br />Also, if you haven't joined Specific Beauty skincare giveaway yet, please <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/specific-beauty-skincare-giveaway.html">click here</a> to join. The winning bundle plus their new Clarifying Acne Wash Treatment Cleanser are nice.

Good News on a Gloomy Day

Hi everyone, <br /><br />The past few days have been filled with rain and more rain. I love having rain to cool down the acrid weather in Saigon. But on the other hand, rainy days mean lack of sunlight to take pictures. On top of that, the past few weeks have me running around like a headless chicken. My life has been extremely busy, y'all.<br /><br />As we all know, I opened <a href="http://lifeandrewrite.wordpress.com/">another blog</a> a while ago. The thrill of having another blog is always something I can't describe. Thankfully, some of you here show support to Life and Rewrite. It gives me a boost to blog more and I am thankful for that. But today, I had the best lunch break ever! I logged into WordPress and wondered where all the readers had come from. I mean, on a good day, My Makeup Blog has about 1000 page views. And that's a very good day. In less than 24 hours since I posted yesterday's entry, I had about 3,000 page views! My mouth was on the floor.<br /><br />While I scratched my brain trying to understand where the readers came from, I read the comments and apparently, my review of Anthony Bourdain's "Medium Raw" was featured on <a href="http://wordpress.com/#!/fresh/">WordPress's Freshly Pressed</a>.<br /><br />I know.<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/AVvXsEjcjH_DTCTfSmJgxEEPcqba9N36l09knRMhB-jddklhhade-gMtZyAUUyRGPMAvEZV3UQGww0wKY4mgsXvrQRKOHmkxoiP6x9VmL06VNaDGbn6PiujfxJMPn3hOo5vXvP30gXqKnNXxQL9b/s1600/wpfp.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="410" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcjH_DTCTfSmJgxEEPcqba9N36l09knRMhB-jddklhhade-gMtZyAUUyRGPMAvEZV3UQGww0wKY4mgsXvrQRKOHmkxoiP6x9VmL06VNaDGbn6PiujfxJMPn3hOo5vXvP30gXqKnNXxQL9b/s640/wpfp.gif" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">It was uber weird seeing the name of my other blog on WordPress.<br />It still is!</td></tr></tbody></table>It's even better than winning the lottery. Never in my life had I imagined that to happen. I have been trying to get My Makeup Blog featured without success but it didn't go anywhere. But this? Maybe I should stop trying.<br /><br />While this is not an ego boost or anything, I am thankful for it. God knows how my days have been lately. I have to fight for time to blog and despite how tired I am, I need to put those posts up.<br /><br />So, no FOTD for this week but please join <a href="http://mymakeupblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/specific-beauty-skincare-giveaway.html">my latest giveaway</a> with skincare products from Specific Beauty. The products are very nice and they kept my skin moisturize during the winter months.<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;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">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!</span></td></tr></tbody></table>

Specific Beauty Skincare Giveaway

Hi everyone, <br /><br />Recently, a representative of <a href="http://www.specificbeauty.com/">Specific Beauty</a> contacted me with an offer to host a giveaway with their skincare products. Since I used products from Specific Beauty before and received great results from them, I thought it would be a nice opportunity for one of my readers to win such a nice skincare bundle.<br /><br />Specific Beauty is a skincare brand created by Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd, an expert in skincare with specialty in multi-hue skin tones. Her products are designed to use synergistically to improve the skin. Upon using her day and night cremes, I noticed my skin to become more hydrated and clearer. Also, dark spots and marks from previous acne faded away faster.<br /><br />Specific Beauty is very generous to offer their whole set of regimen plus a Clarifying Wash Acne Treatment Cleanser. The regimen includes:<br /><ul><li><b>Daily Gentle Cleanser</b> - an ultra gentle cleanser designed to maintain and replenish the skins' natural hydration. </li><li><b>Exfoliating Cleansing Cloths</b> - dual-sided to carefully exfoliate the skin, while providing a deep clean to remove impurities, all without the need to rinse with water. </li><li><b>Daily Hydrating Lotion SPF 30</b> - daily moisturizer that provides broad spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays with SPF 30. </li><li> <b>Night Treatment Complex</b> - lightweight skin brightening formula that helps improve skin texture while you sleep. </li><li><b>Skin Brightening Serum</b> - a special multi-benefit complex of licorice, antioxidants, retinol and niacinimide - to provide the skin with the ultimate brightening benefits.</li></ul>Also, the <b>Clarifying Wash Acne Treatment Cleanser</b> is a salicylic acid wash gentle enough for daily use, yet tough enough to get into the pores to help reduce acne blemishes. It is a quick and effective acne treatment to prevent breakouts and reduce oil that is paraben free.<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/AVvXsEiyVHqPro7Sxe-wXCjnEyCF3WSYibioA1LyGWe0x7iO99qa7uQLKBfeD-zN99vdIDmaHz81km4cFhpLisUzp8lWN9M2GTr9VSz8gvFs8l8eVOThxO9EGuTjcU6guTpWmnEomhNDARSsNJGc/s1600/Regimen_Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyVHqPro7Sxe-wXCjnEyCF3WSYibioA1LyGWe0x7iO99qa7uQLKBfeD-zN99vdIDmaHz81km4cFhpLisUzp8lWN9M2GTr9VSz8gvFs8l8eVOThxO9EGuTjcU6guTpWmnEomhNDARSsNJGc/s640/Regimen_Front.jpg" width="528" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The regimen, minus the cleansing cloth<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> </span></td></tr></tbody></table><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/AVvXsEgpVFx-GoBe8N_IKblqnEGMGjprxUHUL_R5ZwlEWP4oh6u5N65vSN_W6HxZmtWHM4DBf2TsmVgTmt3Y-RtR7JmDJVVaqRgX1Z5MkVPSmIHwjohJPcPDurS32Lmopl48EQ2ba0qPuo3Kt9fF/s1600/Clarifying+Wash+Acne+Treatment.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpVFx-GoBe8N_IKblqnEGMGjprxUHUL_R5ZwlEWP4oh6u5N65vSN_W6HxZmtWHM4DBf2TsmVgTmt3Y-RtR7JmDJVVaqRgX1Z5MkVPSmIHwjohJPcPDurS32Lmopl48EQ2ba0qPuo3Kt9fF/s640/Clarifying+Wash+Acne+Treatment.jpg" width="446" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The new Clarifying Wash Acne Treatment Cleanser</td></tr></tbody></table>Are you interested?

Fitness Report #6

Hi everyone, <br /><br />Last week, I hit an epiphany regarding fitness. Since I did not weigh myself the week before, I just assumed the workout routine as usual (more cardio with a touch of yoga.) Two weeks passed and guess how much weight I lost?<br /><br />Two hundred freakin' grams!<br /><br />Yeah, that's right. I lost less than half a pound. In two weeks. It tore me apart. It was not as if I was sitting idly and eating moon cake or anything. And by the way, the Autumn Festival just passed and so far, I have eaten half a moon cake.<br /><br />I was doing all this and the scale just refused to move. It was a sad, sad day. I came home and felt like I should throw in the towel already. Why bother, right?<br /><br />But again, that ain't me. I am not a quitter. I am a fighter. I have made a commitment to exercise for 100 days and I am going to stick to it. Scale, this is my warning: move the number down or I'm gonna smash you!<br /><br />I gave myself some thought about this: why am I exercising? Am I doing it for my own health or for the vanity of seeing the number getting smaller on the scale?<br /><br />And the answer came to me: I do this for me. And I'm not going to compare myself against anybody, including my old past record. I used to lose 5 lbs a month but that was years ago. I am not that same person anymore but persistence always pays off. One step at a time. Also, I was PMS-ing and that may affect my weight loss.<br /><br />Here is how week 6 went:<br /><br /><ul><li><b>Monday:</b> Activate                                            40 min</li><li><b>Tuesday:</b> walking + 30 day shred                     40 min</li><li><b>Wednesday:</b> yoga+ walking                             1hr 20 min</li><li><b>Thursday:</b> break</li><li><b>Friday:</b> yoga conditioning                                 50 min</li><li><b>Saturday:</b> gym                                                 1 hr</li><li><b>Sunday:</b> gym                                                    50 min</li></ul><div>Total amount of time: <b><u>5 hours and 20 minutes.</u></b></div><div><br /></div><br />I actually exercised 6 days a week last week and it was not pretty. It was a bit tiring not to have the second day off. I found myself reaching for yoga to cushion the blow. Regardless of the number of days I exercised, I still felt like I didn't do it enough.<br /><br />So, this week I am going back to 5-day a week exercising routine. I'm adding weight training to my workouts to see if there is any changes.<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>Fitness tip of the week:</i></b></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: yellow;">Whatever you do, don't give up. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Just keep pushing until you reach your goals.</span><span style="background-color: yellow;"></span><br /><br />Also, Kevin James Bennett has a kick-ass blog about <a href="http://makeup411.com/ea_info/id/393/">Makeup Myths</a> on Makeup 411.

Hair Smooth as Silk with Sunsilk

Hi everybody, <br /><br />I grew up with Sunsilk and this brand was the first to introduce me to conditioner. Yeah, back when I was 8 or 9, we just washed our hair with shampoo and that was it. I remember my grandma had a bottle of Sunsilk that she locked in her dresser for years. It was her back-up shampoo that she would use for special occasions. That was how much she treasured it.<br /><br />Years passed and I was delighted when Sunsilk came to the U.S market. Albeit being the #1 hair care brand in the Asian market, it failed to make a note in the U.S and folded at the end of 2010. I tried it then and the formula was sub-par. So, when I came back to Asia, I made sure to give Sunsilk a try and I was blown away.<br /><br />The stuff is <i>that</i> good! For years, I wanted to find something that keeps my straight hair healthy without weighing it down. Not so many shampoos in the U.S market can do that since they all contain a lot of humectants and moisturizers, which my hair does not need.<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/AVvXsEiGAlL62RrEktO37CPXi8YUoe_VTICapcEgCJ6fo4j9YkmZzFaGYVuUGHFP1e29Hradx02Vbh9RMjURLK28d4lxQB6SF1bh3jvlrSS4fWsa4NRU2YkTXKn5mhY-c5ICUFQk_tsZid6ucI5D/s1600/IMG_4566.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGAlL62RrEktO37CPXi8YUoe_VTICapcEgCJ6fo4j9YkmZzFaGYVuUGHFP1e29Hradx02Vbh9RMjURLK28d4lxQB6SF1bh3jvlrSS4fWsa4NRU2YkTXKn5mhY-c5ICUFQk_tsZid6ucI5D/s640/IMG_4566.JPG" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">(L-R) Sunsilk Co-Creations shampoo designed by Jamal Hammadi and conditioner designed by Thomas Taw<br />My apologies to the less stellar photo: it's been raining a lot lately and I had to take the picture indoor .

Yup, this stuff is black with mica shimmers and it took me a while to get used of the color. While both have floral scents, the conditioner is thicker than the shampoo, which I find to be on the runny side. The shampoo is mild and keeps my hair clean until the second day. I do notice a nice lift on the hair after I wake up. The shampoo itself is moisturizing enough for me and I only use the conditioner once in a while (maybe twice a week tops.)<br /><br />With that said, the conditioner is actually can be left on for two minutes before washing. It is highly moisturizing, thanks to the dimethicone in the ingredient list. In fact, both of them have dimethicone highly ranked in the lists to give the hair a glossy and smooth feeling.<br /><br />Since I've used this Sunsilk combo, my hair has been incredibly shiny. It also gets easier for me to comb and style my hair. I expected these products to make my hair look and feel greasy by the second day but that rarely happens, which is a big relief to me.<br /><br />Price-wise, Sunsilk shampoos are mid-range products in the price list. Since Unilever has a factory in Vietnam, the prices of products made in Vietnam are significantly cheaper. I've tried a few shampoos and conditioners to find Sunsilk as the brand that gives my hair the glossiest and sleekest look.<br /><br />Although Sunsilk is no longer available in mass-market stores in the U.S, you can still (hopefully) find it in Asian stores. Believe me, the formula is different in Asia and Unilever focuses on different hair types depending on the market. If you have straight hair and want to add shine, Sunsilk may be the answer to you.<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;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">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!</span></td></tr></tbody></table>
