Love

 
Good News, everyone!
 
I am ENGAGED!
 
 
Photo credits to my little sister
 
 
 This is the most beautiful moment which I have, and I would like to share with all of you :)
 
 
My whole family and my love flew to China, Shan Dong ( love's hometown) for holiday and visited his family, plus an engagement celebration purpose. Actually I wasn't expecting any proposal because both sides of family had already decided for us.
 
Just in case you wondered about the engagement celebration. In his hometown, holding an engagement celebration before official wedding dinner is different as only close relatives and friends are invited. This is "confirm" our marriage.  Additionally, men and women have to sit at the different table. ( why? I don't know. Gender power I guess? ). But I love the "Women Talking" with my new future relatives. Despite there are quite a bit of cultural difference, I am very glad that communication is not a problem for us. Thank god for Mandarin and my travelling experience in China.
 
In case you wonder, if there's a video...
 
Here you go!

Highlighting & Contouring for Eyes!

 
Beauty Lovers,
Thank you for your patience and appreciate your precious time spent on my beauty blog.
 
This is the beauty tips for  Highlighting & Contouring for Eyes! .
 
Plus bonus of additional simple eye make up tutorial steps.
 
 
I will be using the Maybelline Lasting Drama Waterproof Gel Pen, which is launched not long ago.
 
Here we go!
 
Step 1: Prime!
 
 
Urban Decay Primer is used for oil control, very usefull especially for oily eyelids ( mostly asian skins)
Simply apply a small amount on your eyelids.
 
 
Step 2: HighLight!


 
Use a highlighter brush, slightly bigger than normal eyeshadow brush, collect the product with a lighter color ( can be used on any palette)
 
Apply a slight light color beneath the brow bones and above your brows.
This can create a slight 3D effect, so that your eyes have more definition.
 
Step 3: Contour

Use a contouring brush ( Sephora), collect a slightly darker color.
 

Apply the darker color on your brown bone and blend in circular motion.
This is the natural contouring effect on my eyes.

The final natural eyeshadow look.
 
 
Step 4: EYELINER!
Maybelline Gel Liner


This is how the tip looks like

Thats all for now, get dressed up and head out!
Enjoy your new look!

Beauty Article Of the Day: Quality of Cosmetics

 
When i was 17 years old and tried make up, I do not find the need to invest on more expensive products because I was just concern about the results.
 
However, when i have become a make up artist, I do realise the concern of the quality of the products, especially hygiene.
 
This is an article which will summarise the important points on quality cosmetics.
 
 
 
Have fun with beauty.

What's your Blood Type? : Health Talk

Have you ever been trying to lose weight and resulted in losing energy and gaining all back again?
 
I have recently came across a chinese newsarticle, covering on the topic on losing weight efficiently by knowing your blood type. I can guess it must be related to feeding what your own body needs, your own body!
 
So I decided to share with all of you, and you can decide if this works for you. :)
 
For Blood B Type:
 
 
 
Eat more red meat, lesser chicken.
According to a local nutrition expert (孙达达士), Lectin which is found in chicken and pork is not suitable for B type blood.
 
If you would like to control your weight, should try to avoid corn, sesame, peanut, wheat and lentil seed.
 
By having red meat ( lean meat), this can increase the metabolism, which help to burn fats more.
 
 
For Blood A type
 
Due to your gastric system is very sensitive and weaker, should avoid meat and dairy products.
The only suitable meat encouraged to be consume is seafood.
 
 
 
If you would like to lose weight, have to consume loads of vegetables , beans, pineapple.
 
Avoid diary products, kidney beans ,wheat related food and especially fresh meat.
 
 
For Blood O Type:
 
Digestive system is very strong, and very suitable to consume meat, but need to avoid bean related food.
 
 
If you would like to maintain healthy body, you can have seafood,salt, brocolli, animal organs.
Foods like wheat, beans, cabbage,seaweed do not provide sufficient forms of nuitrition to your body.
 
 
For Blood AB Type
 
Due to the mixture of A and B blood type, very suitable to have variation of food.
Encouraged to avoid red meat and corn.
 
If you would like to lose weight, consume more tofu, seafood, diary products, seaweed and pineapple.
Avoid bean related food and wheat.
 
 
This is all I have summarised from the article.
What do you do think about this article?
 
Health is the greatest wealth!
 
Good Luck!
