strictly for my girlfriends and cross-dressers

My sister is right. Let's not write about politics. Our country is in such a sorry state and it's just so.. soo.... depressing.... It's Tuesday and I just feel like Paris-Hiltoning my blog a little...Yes, Gombak4life, this is how you Paris Hilton your blog... Yes, GemGem, I mentioned Paris Hilton...but unfortunately there will be no nude pics of her here okay. Sorry to dissapoint.

I've always been a sucker for new cosmetic products. And I will only use about 60% of the things that I buy, while the rest will remain in my drawer, waiting to be donated to either my mom's maid, my bibik or my cousin or even my mom, who will visit every now and then and ask, "Ada lipstick tak?" Then she will just pocket one or two in her handbag.

So because I'm bored at the office, let me indulge you in a few of my recent cosmetic purchases, some crappy and some reallyyy cool. Although since going out with The Diver I've very much reduced my retail therapy sessions. Good or bad ah?

So girls, here are a few things that I've recently discovered...

MAC's Sculpt and Shape Powder - Ayu and I tried this out at KLCC's MAC. It's quite easy to apply (although I had to SMS her to ask which shade goes where the first time I wanted to apply it.. heheh) and will actually contour and highlight your face. This means it creates an illusion of a sharper nose and smaller face. Godsend. Cuma aku je yang malas pakai because I think I need a professional brush for this, and not the brushes that I have now. Heheh. Ada je reason.

Bobbi Brown's Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks - Must buy! Must buy! This one costs RM90 but well worth it. I got the one in Calypso Coral. I love this so much I'm gonna get another one, or two in fact. Its creamy texture blends so well with my skin and it just gives out that radiant afterglow that's oh so natural. It helps a lot because without makeup I'm pale as a corpse. I don't complain much about my complexion though because I can just go makeup-less and people would think that I'm sick and I can go home and rest. Or get fake MC.

M by Mariah Carey eau de parfum - Love this! It's very very mysteriously sensual... and initially it might smell a bit too Mak Datinish, but give it a few seconds then you'll be able to smell the layers of gardenia, moroccan amber and vanilla i think... I just wanted a change from my usual Eternity Moment and Ralph Lauren Romance. The first time I sprayed this on I asked The Diver to guess what's the perfume name.. so I hinted, "It's a female singer... can you guess whose perfume?" He took a whiff of it from my wrist.. and went... "SHARIFAH AINI!!!" Cipan betul. But in a way he's quite right la.. both have big boobies. Heheh.

Anyway, I was walking around Pavilion a few weeks back, and you know they have this tiny Paris Hilton store there kan... it's shameless, but I'm so dying to buy one of the clutch bags sold there... Full of bling and glizt and I just feel like I should vamp up my handbag collection a little. Although I do have a crimson red Celine handbag that's still lying in the closet, I thought it's a tad bit too flashy. Mr Diver.. I am dropping a not-so-subtle hint, next time I go Pavilion it's definitely not for the donuts ok..

Short term shopping objective (read: next week after I come back from Perhentian or maybe.. err.. tomorrow?): black and white, striped Rockin' Reptile pumps from Parkson at the Pavilion. Rainmaker.... wait for my call ya.... After that we go makan at Nirwana Maju... peria goreng!

Hmm.. I feel much better writing this than a post on Noraini Ahmad.
