The Stylish Blogger Award

Elaine gave me this award! Thank you!

To accept the Stylish Blogger Award there are some rules to follow:

1. Thank and link back to who gave you the award.
2. Share eight things about yourself.
3. Pass it along to eight other blogs that you’ve recently discovered and enjoyed.
4. Leave those bloggers a message telling them about their awards.

Instead of 3 and 4, I've decided to make this a free-for-all (as usual :P). Anyone who wants to do this, please feel free ♥

On to Eight Things about Myself!

My Routine, v.2

One lovely anonymous commenter suggested that I write an updated version of my old makeup routine, and here it is!

ETA 4/5/11: Thank you for your suggestion, Nicole!

Anyway, on to the good stuff! Reviews for unreviewed products coming soon!

The Handwriting Tag, aka the Writing Meme

Last Feb-March, this meme became popular among many of the bloggers I follow. I saw it first on K's blog, then on Mai and Kat's blog, then on G's, Asami's, and Pao's. By far, the most creative I've seen is hers. Pretty highlighters! ♥ (She used slightly different questions too!)

I'm quite late to the party, but who cares. At least I'm fashionable? Har har~

Anybody who wants to do this, please go ahead! And link me your posts! :D

Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick: Summer Sunset

Yet another red. I'm experimenting with the formulas from various American drugstore brands. I have yet to try Covergirl's lipsticks - I can't seem to find any good shades. Any suggestions? :D

My Makeup Story

This post was backlogged December 12, 2010.

I was watching this video by one of my favorite makeup people on YouTube (I love how down-to-earth she is and how calming her voice is), and I decided to do the tag here on my blog too.

1. How old were you when you started wearing makeup?
12, first year high school. It was just lip balm and face powder. I went to a Catholic school with very strict nuns, so I never wore anything beyond that. I started getting into other types of makeup like eyeshadow, liner, foundation and mascara in my fourth year, where most people were having proms, grad parties, debuts, and other similar events. Except for parties, I rarely wore makeup for regular days until I decided to start this blog in third year college. At that point, I started getting into blush and lip products with more intense colors like gloss and lipstick.

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick: Raspberry

I think this is my favorite red lipstick.
