my everyday make-up

I'm not a make-up enthusiast and I don't have perfect skin, but I make it a point to leave the house with a presentable to somewhat bearable face. Who knows who I will run into throughout the day, right? I'm very low maintenance when it comes to beauty products. I'm not picky. I usually just go for whatever's available or steal from my mom's or my sister's stash.

My make-up routine is really simple and natural, and takes less than five minutes to apply. This is my go-to look that, in my opinion, can take me from day to night. I'm not a beauty expert or anything, but in my case, I always concentrate on my eyes, so I like to go heavy on mascara and then put a bit of black eyeliner on the crease of my lower eyelid. I would top everything off with bronzer on my cheeks to enhance my skin tone and get me that sun-kissed look. I also like to go nude... on my lips!

For the curious, my "ingredients" include the following: Maybelline New York Clear Smooth Aqua gel foundation, Maybelline New York Clear Smooth Shine Free face powder, The Body Shop Eye Definer Shade in black, Maybelline New York The Magnum Volum' Express waterproof mascara, The Body Shop Brush On Bronze, and Marks & Spencer Shea Nut lip butter.

And this is as close as I will ever get to a beauty post.

i'm an extraordinary machine

I'm always so bungisngis in my photos. I wonder if people are getting tired of seeing my teeth all the time. It's the only way I know how to werk my thaaang, so unfortunately, you're stuck with my Cheshire grin indefinitely. I cannot do those fierce fashyown poses with a straight face! It was such a struggle for me to do the next shot. I have to show my teeth!!! Hahaha. Besides, don't they say that your smile is your best accessory? So, smile, people! Let's not take things too seriously. :D

Anyway, I wore this to a job interview this afternoon. Funny and embarrassing moment: the swivel chair I was sitting on kept going down on its own and I kinda squeaked "help!" to the interviewer. Hahahaha! Oh, god. Other than that, I feel really good about the whole thing. I can't tell any more until I sign an actual contract, but I'm hoping for good news to come very soon!
