lipstick, powder & paint


A Dior make-up demonstration. I don't know if it's a great way to sell the stuff but it does make you stop and watch how to perfectly blend your colours. One deal that was going on was a free makeover with a purchase of a certain amount of products. I wonder if any of these scarfed ladies went home with smokey eyes and over-rouged cheeks and a bag of products they'll spend hours with trying to reproduce the perfect face. I hope they bought decent cleansers and make-up removers as well. No one looks good with dirty pores.

I really enjoy this photo. Very interesting contrast. I think make up only disguises a womans natural beauty.

Smoke eyes? Apa macam? You got into a fight at school?

Oh, poor Edwin! I hope you are not having a second lunch on my account! :D

Clogged pores, yes, quite unsightly.

I fell about at your last sentence Edwin! V funny - and true, of course. I had one of these done once in a store - Yves St Laurent I think. They put so much makeup on me I left looked like I was wearing a mask.

Love the photo.

I agree Susan, natural is best.

Ming, I didnt' buy any contrary to popular belief. I use Body Shop make-up when I perform :)

Fenix, I went and made myself a sandwich.

Neva, when i perform, I do my own but I too love it when there's someone to do it for me.

Georgetownboy... did you go anyway?

Marley and Jilly, thanks for falling over :)

I guess they all want to be photographed after that right?

The lady's eye so gelap gelita. Macam kena tumbuk!
