Beauty + Recipes

Excited much?!

Yes! Alot of you have requested me to do my make up collection. So these are my new home for my babies. Hope you enjoy some make up PORN loving! hahaha! I started early 2008. So it explains my collection. I do use many of the products as i rotate them daily. And when i pull my make up drawer, the feeling of relieve and joy just makes me forget all my problems..do you feel that way?

This is where i manage to put my stuffs. Otherwise, my room is super small and organizing is very crucial. So this is before.

Now, lets open the drawers. Are you ready? Let the picture speaks for itself.

So that is it honey. Spread the love and show us your collections ok! Its 2am now. I am tugging in. Nitez!!!

This will benefit people who went to MAC workshop. We were given this as our goodie bags. And I found another way to use this container. Initially it has two mini fix+ bottles in it. So iw as thinking of other ways to use and and found iT! Wanna see? Scroll lower.

I cover it so that there wont be no dust settling on my brushes. Sometime when im lazy i dont. haha! Anyway, i love how my brushesa re seperate. FACE & EYES.  Apologize i took this when my brushes are all unbath! Anyhoo, below you can see, there is a divider with a base on it. I do not know how to put it in words nor call it. But i call it my section stand. This stand has a base. So all my brushes will settle on it. When i pull it up, it enables me to reach for my short handle brushes easily hence seeing my brushes too.

That was what i meant by my section stand. It has a base which allows my brushes to be pulled up and down. haha!

Now, the height of the stand equates to the height of the container. I hardly could reach my brushes when it is all deep inside. So i put a mini box, to add height for my section stand to be a little much higher for me to grab the brushes with ease.

Tadaa! Simple? So if you have this container, let me know what you are using it for? I put it in this container for now as i do not have space for these babies to settle elsewhere. So, i hope you enjoy it.

Where do you put your brushes at?

I definitely did not post much this week. Been busy with school and my event. It took place today, Saturday, and it was a BLAST! I was so tanned i look like 2 shades darker! Goodness! So it is a private family day event!

Look at how tanned i got! I bathed in Pahlawan Beach toilet, which was sooo SURPRISINGLY clean and comfy! I felt so fresh thereafter, met my man and head off to IKEA! I met mya(heavenlygorgeous) too with her Man! Great in black with style, i look way laid back when i hugged her(lepak). Sorry dear, got too tired after the event:) But boy~ there are such a nice couple.

Here are some ideas you can get for your make up storage.

This is a great tray to seperate your stuff for everyday use or even for MSFs and foundations. Great2 storage. Plus it has a handle which makes it PORTABLE! hahaha!

I got these at Queenstown Ikea. And this are found in t he "give the products a second chance" area. Theya re stuffs which ikea sells cheaper because of slight defects. So, I got such a great bargain for $3 only!!! I gotta have it! So yeah..I have seen alot of Youtubers having these s their storages. But I do not actually use the circle plastic guide for my lip products because of the sucky fixed size which do not fit most of my lipsticks..Boo to that! But yah..I got the last piece i think..

Thanks for reading!!! :)

A jar?!!! A bottle? A PLASTIC BOTTLE?! Yes! A uber cool one too! I was walking along in spotlight in searchg for fillers for my brushes. (Still not giving up!) And failed to do so. However, I did find this amazing thing! I have been wanting a jar with a lid on for my brushes so that they won't be caught with dust. And here it is! It is super awesome! I mean, apart form being a knitting neddlecase, it can be used as something else! So yeah! Hope this gives you an idea of having it as a storage for your make up brushes or even your undies!!! hahaha! Till then loves! :)

My vanity is an old mirror set which is brought down from ancestors from my family way back in Sumatra. I am shocked when we first moved in, and my dad asked me whether i want it in my room. I was so scared at first thinking it might be evil and all the movie influences. But it is nothing but antic which adds character in my room. Anyway, the vanity i have is very special to me. Although the space of my vanity table is so small and narrow, storage is definitely critical in my plannings. I am not thoroughly done with my vanity as i plan to get matching baskets and all but this is what i made do with so far :)

A basket which i store everything in. If i have to make a tutorial, I would put all the stuff in the basket and transfer it to my table. I usually make two to three trips getting my product. But with this, every night before i sleep i put stuff which i will grab and use it the next morning :)

You all know I have shared my going green tips on how you can arrange eyeshadows, by using cookie trays which you have bought or used! So, now, it  is no stranger to you that I used another biscuit tray for my creme blushes. Everytime my parents buy cookies, I will wash the tray and reuse. That way, you don't have to go Daiso and buy trays even if it cost dirt cheap. This save the resources from developing more plastics and its not good for mother earth as well. I am slowly doing bit by bit to help saving gaia. I believe if one person do a small thing everyday to save the earth, then you multiply by so many people living on earth, that is equivalent to a BIG GIGANTIC GOOD thing you do to save the earth! So start today. Okay? Beauty RECYCLING!

Apart from eating all those cookies, I do not throw my empty beauty product bottles or packaging away to the rubbish bin. I usually collects them, and when it is full, i will head down to the nearest recycling bin, and throw them accordingly. That way, they are being processed and reformed into another product rather than they keep processing new products. So yeah! I am no spokesperson nor do I volunteer anything. But this is a feel good thing for me to do. Make it your habit too ok! Show me pictures of what you have recycled or reuse for your beauty products! :) HAVE FUN!

I am hoping to do more of this. Then only, I do not have to waste money and get Daiso organizing trays. Even though its $2. Best to re-use stuff for the better. Spread the love by sharing with us a photo of you going GREEN!:) 

Haha! I wish i could have all the 4 words starts with M...almost untill i have to end it up with BOX. Anyway, my mom loves make up. But, she rarely wears much. Plus, her make up is all over the place in her drawer. All her eyeshadows has crumbled and broken. Her brushes are all over the places. She puts everything with her receipts and stuff. It was INTOLERABLE! At least for me. She never wahs her brushes either! So, DIANA came to the rescue!!! I got her old lipsticks rack and REVAMP her mini make up. This is what its left. She got a whole lot more. But they are either broken or hit pan. Now, momzie says she loves the new box. Neater and she feels happy looking at it. PROJECT COMPLETE! 

After posting up my hysteric moments with the sephora inspired brush holder, heavenlygorgeous told me that she keeps her brushes in her bag because of her dusty room. It gave me that idea of storing my make up brushes in an enclose area so that dust from my room does not settle on my brushes. Which will only transfer on my face. Not very sanitary. So, one day, i was as i was about to throw those brown ikea trays away,(Since i got daiso trays) i put it to good use! Lay it with paper towel and have my brushes rested in the drawer! That would conclude a sanitary clean brushes wtih dust-free?!!! Somehow it sound like a product sold..ahahah! So, yeah, this post would give you the idea on how to store your brushes! :) Good Luck!

moshi moshi! I have gotten two tray for my MAKE up storage Neeeehh~...here they are...$2 each and VOIUILA!! TRansformation BEGINS!!! HAIK!

If you needed to ask me anything, feel free too write yah?

XOXO

DIANA!
