My review on travel brush set

Use Huda beauty gel black liner and smudge using pencil brush with eyebrow powder dark chocolate in my eyebrow pallet from Cosway. As the Huda beauty gel black liner easily smeared. That is why I smudge it.

Can see I focus more on the eye part

Part and product used:

1) Lips: Huda beauty Charming Lips (gloss) in colour 02

2) Face: CC cream from Elianto, concealer from Nars code Cafe using the foundation brush from travel set [1]

3) Cheek: Blusher Sivanna colours Mat Fleur Cheeks code 03 using blush brush from travel set [1]
4) Eyebrow: Eyebrow pallet from Cosway and dual eyebrow brush with spoolie
5) Travel brush set [1]

Travel brush set [1]

Summary:
I am satisfied with the travel brush set quality. It really helps improve my make up application to get better looks. Plus, easy to bring on daily basis.

Till then, have a good time putting on fresh look make up😉

My new tools to dry my make up brushes after deep cleaning

Last time I just arrange all my brushes in one basket with hole and put it under ceiling fan in the room. All in one basket after weekly or monthly deep cleaning process.

My drying rack

I do found that using this drying tools help to promote faster drying process. Especially when this drying rack were put under ceiling fan. From normally 3-4 days become 1-2 days. 

As all the brushes here hanged upside down individually with 1-2 cm spaces in between. Where good ventilation helps faster drying time due to good spacing length. Seems like I would be able to deep clean wash my brushes 2-3 times a week with minimum 2 sets of make up brushes. Provided I am discipline enough to force myself to be that thorough on my brushes hygiene😅

Till then, have a good time deep cleaning your make up brush weekly or daily.

Gruesome close up dirt on make up brushes after usage

Can see how much dirt/debris on the brushes after usage [1].

Seeing the pictures in [1] makes me feel scared on how gruesome it is.

Reference [1]

Dirty make up brush could also be a cause to almost-death-like situation for this girl in case [2].

She violate 2 rules:

1. do not wash make up brush and 
2. popped pimple. 

"It happens to be a very serious case of Cellulitis, which is a version of a Staph infection. It also affects the deep cellular tissues with no main source to attack." That is why in this article, the girl now always emphasize on cleaning make up brushes at least once per month [2].

Reference [2]

This girl does clean her brushes such as foundation,blush and etc. She just forget to disinfect her spoolie. That is why now she urges ot to disinfect everything [2].

Reference [3]

Other case, 27 years old make up user paralyse completely after staph infection attacked her spine in year 2015. It is believed that the infection was passed along after using her friend make up brush. Where the microbes might entered her system through pimple on her face. She is hoping to be able to walk again. Could read the details in link below [3].

Reference [4]

For this case, this model infected by staph infection on eye after a fashion show. Fortunately her infection is minor. Details in this link [4].

Conclusion/moral of the story:

1. hygiene is very crucial for good skin condition and healthy life. More reason to wash/deep clean your make up tools and bags weekly. The way I deep clean my brushes as link in reference [5].
2. make sure to only use your own make up
3. sharing here could only lead to paralyse/death instead of caring. The best is to be selfish on this part.
4. stop using make up once have breakout to avoid infection.

Till then, be safe in applying make up in daily basis.

My current make up routine

Nowdays I only put on BB Cream with SPF, do my eyebrows, eyeliners, put blushers and  lipstick on top of my lipstain.

Not much time to spare for more.
All the above already took me 15 to 30 minutes. I also need 30 minutes more to dry my hairs, put on clothes and finally out from house daily.
I need to be on time and practical on my attire plus opt for simple make up instead of full fledge ones. As my work only give me bonus for being presentable.
Owning a magnifying mirror [1] does helps a lot in improving my make up to be neat and spot on😘

That is why I make sure to be presentable each time I am out working and out for meeting. I even make sure to put on at least lipstain/lipbalm and compact powder when I need to go out when I am not too well.
I am also grateful to have the opportunity to stay at my own home during this Aidil Adha compared to few of my girlfriends whom at site at this time.

Till then, have a good weekend ahead😉

My mulberry tree finally bearing ripe fruits

I get the cutted stem on November 2016.

Move the cutting to land area on 3 December 2016.

Last 30 January 2017 it started to produce fruit buds. But unfortunately it fails to grow to be fruits.

I tend to forget to tend for it since it is outside of my house compound.

This evening I manage to muster strength to tend after the papaya, mulberry and lime tree that I plant near drainage area in front of my house.

Plenty of mulberries fruit buds

I was surprised to see the long forgotten mulberry tree have many fruit buds. Even have ripe red ones. It was more like plant and leave. That is why I am so excited seeing the red mulberries😅

It took me almost 9 months for my mulberry to bear fruits. Although certain people manage to gain fruit faster than me, I feel blessed to have such a robust mulberry tree. 

Nice to see my crops bearing fruits after a long time. To plant tree, need to have  lots of patience. As sometimes the duration is longer to get good organic outcome.

Basically now, I have extra fresh fruit at home than papaya. 

Till then, have fun and be patient to eat fresh and organic mulberries 😘

Importancy of vanity mirror with magnifying function

Been a daily make up user, I am customised to used normal mirror. Then in 2014, I start using travel vanity mirror with 3x magnifying function. Then I started to realise how the magnifying function helps to improve my make up application.

Currently, I am using travel vanity mirror with 7x magnifying. At last, I am able to understand why Lisa Eldridge use at least 10x magnifying function for her travel mirror. No wonder her make up spot on. It is really impressive how the mirror reflect all the imperfection in my whole face.

Love this angle despite my imperfections on my chin showing off clearly😅

My travel vanity mirror have internal battery 1,250 mAh capacity. The best part, it is charged using micro usb cable. Which I found it very convenient since I am using the same cable to charge my phone. Save a lot of space in my handbag. It also have suction part at the bottom and can be rotated 360 degree. Convenient also to use in bathroom for long sighted people to groom their face or even  to shave.

I choose this mirror due to the above list. It size is convenient enough for me to bring travel and daily commute. Regardless the size/diameter is 20.5cm / 8.1 inch, which quite huge to bring in daily basis. Well as long as the mirror huge enough for me to see my whole face and makes my blush application even, I can tolerate with the size.
My review on the mirror is in this link [1].

Till then, have a good time getting your desired travel vanity mirror.

Selection of suggested make up brushes for my clients

Regardless I am still tired from 2 days trip visiting internship students in kl, I still manage to be personal shopper for my clients for make up brushes.

Below is the haul for today: 

1. Custom brush set from supplier. Price RM 200 per set

1. Custom travel brush set from seller (price RM 150 per set). Can see the brush handle very short compare to the one above

Satisfied customer on my make up brush consultation

My consultation works not only limited to engineering works. Also covers others such as grooming (make up selection, make up brush selection) and training (how to put on make up using make up brush for more hygiene application and better outcome).

For example: my look using make up brush as my make up tools. I am able to get better looks for my meeting on Thursday morning

Can see below how satisfied my client with my suggestion of make up brushes.

Regardless she already bought expensive brand make up brush for blusher,she still prefer the medium one that I choose for her.

She love this powder brush from the set

This is a very good basic set for beginner that just started to use make up brush to apply their make up. It is also affordable as set price is RM 80.

My suggestion based on my own experience after using them. Not simply based on others review.

Till then, good luck in your quest to find the suitable make up brush for your  make up application😉
