Hi!

Last night’s event was pretty intense until i ended up working “overtime”!

I was informed that my job should be done by evening, but it turns out that Yokoe had a lot of interviews to do so i had to be there for her. Imagine Yokoe explaining the Gold Fever look without a model, pretty clueless, right?

Right.

So i went to the store at 2.30 p.m for preparations. Make up was done by none other than the one and only, Yokoe-chan, and hair was done by a professional, Cindy.

Ken the photographer was there to take step-by-step shots of the make up process. He also helped me take these shots for me using my camera! :)

Didn’t take the whole process though. But it’s good!

The hairdo

Candid! I can’t see my eyes! :O

Putting on the fake eyelashes

Random! Would you just look at the amount of stuff on the table?!

Final look! :)

The guests started arriving around 6.30 p.m. It got really crowded later on. The store was a little bit hot cause of the amount of body heat! A number of media interviewed Yokoe while i laze around the store.

Eh, but seriously the whole night i was quite free. All i had to do was walk around the store and show people the work of art that Yokoe created. Then smile for anyone who wants to take pictures, like the photographers and guests.

Then when Yokoe needs me for her interview, she will call me over and show me to the interviewers. I’m like her doll lah, literally!

They had catering services there by Italianese. The cocktail food and desserts looked great.

BUT I WASN’T ALLOWED TO EAT ON THE JOB!

Oh the horror! I had lunch, then chocolate cream and a chocolate walnut cookie from Starbucks for tea time, but that’s not gonna last me til night, right! I didn’t have dinner! I couldn’t!

I got hungry half way during the event. Although i’m naturally “anorexic” thin, i still get hungry wan hor cause i’m human just like you perfect people.

So i stole a bite of some cocktail food, and i got caught by Deric, my job manager. And he told me i’m not suppose to eat on the job, but i can drink.

.. ANYWAY!

Like i said, i was quite free. So i took some pictures around the shop.

This is outside the store before the guests arrived

After the guests arrived :O

Foundation and concealers for the face

Colours for the lips

Plushglass lip gloss

Dazzleglass. I LOVE lip glosses!

Waiter boys! ;)

Okay, hold up for a second there. See those waiter boys?

I took a look at Yokoe’s paperwork and their actual outfit for the event is metallic gold singlet with matching hot shorts!

Hot. Shorts. Guys.

Haha! Thank God they changed it to long pants! They also had matching gold Converse shoes :)

Anyway, last night was my first time working in an event with lots of media. Photographers and TV stations, whoa. It was worth it!

Not to mention the feeling of getting to self-pick my free products! I waited for Yokoe to finish her interviews so that she can help me out with the products.

I picked 3 products. Although the number sounds small, but i know i picked the right ones. Because 2 out of 3 were expensive and the kind that you wouldn’t wanna spend money on cause it hurts if you do, know what i mean.

Total M.A.C products i got in 2 days, from yesterday and today.

Fix+ and gentle eye and lip make up remover. A number of make up artists i worked with before uses them so i thought it’ll be a good idea to get them

Dazzleglass in Bare Necessity. Yokoe picked this colour for me

Bonus, i got to take home the lashes! :)

From today. Eye brow pencil, 217 blending brush and 188 small duo fibre face brush

Again, a number of make up artists used those brushes, and they’re really good. It’s also recommended by one of the make up artists and M.A.C.

Got these items off discount today at Mid Valley!

So..

M.A.C whore + six NEW M.A.C products = One happy M.A.C whore!

Yeap. Not ashamed to admit, some more. Tired of denying. But don’t be so blunt either la, okay. Spare me a break :)

By the time i was done with work, it was already 10. Reached home and took a freaking long bath. It w
as the longest bath i ever took!

My hair was CRAZY HARD to straighten out! It was teased up so much and sprayed with hair spray. I spent like say 40 minutes in the shower and 15 minutes just combing my hair with my fingers to straighten it.

Standing in the shower for 15 minutes. Just doing my hair and adding conditioner to my hair before i can even start shampooing. TIRING!

Then i had my dinner around 12. Bleh!

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading! Now here are the details to yesterday’s make up look!
