12...15... Too many!

Makeup inspiration is lacking! Being unemployed, and in the middle of a recession does no favours for my creativity. I mustered this one up for a trip to the casino. Alas, my bad luck with finances didn't change there either.

PS. Before anyone makes judgement, I didn't actually gamble on my own negative funds, I was there for mutual support. S'if I'd do something silly like gamble while I am unemployed. Even if I'm asian.

Excuse laziness!

Well I was going to post this earlier, but Melbourne has been suffering a 45c/113f degree heatwave all week. So bugger that, I wasn't budging from in front of the air conditioner. This look was inspired by my top, oh how I love jewel-toned colours.

First of 09!

I've been recovering from a Christmas eating marathon, it lasted past the NY. My thighs and I are swearing at each other right now.

"What the heck are yous doing? Is it that hard to stay toned and lump free? What is with your affixation in turning the copious amounts of food I eat into the appearance cottage cheese?!"

"You idiot. Who do you think we belong to. Gisele?"

My thighs are the biggest bullies.

Behold the maraschino red!

My lips woke up today and wanted replicate the colour and glossy surface of a maraschino cherry. Didn't care how high maintenance it would be, despite my protests. Then, I had to tell them to leave my boyfriend alone as he didn't want to look like he'd dunked his face in red Fanta. They got angry and did the Keira Knightley pout all day. Sigh. Oh well, at least that made for some good photo opportunities.

Why peach is good for the soul

Excerpt from “Why peach is a glorious colour to adorn the lips causing other fruits to feel rotten with envy.” By Fruity McFly.

The banana said, “I loathe peach. Its colour makes people look so fresh and healthy, I make people look jaundiced.” Passionfruit agreed whilst staring at its shrivelling self, “How can one make the lips so plump?” Apple rolled into the conversation, “It’s not fair. Women spend a quarter of their mortal life deciding whether they suit blue or orange-based reds, that is, if they’re even game enough to wear it.” Cherry cried, “And to top things off, they even made peach the colour of an orgasm!” Banana declared, “Alright fruits, lets go and kill that pea-tch!"


I love peach. It perks, plumps, prettifies, and universally suits all complexions like no other. God bless the colour which actually makes darks circles disappear when placed in a concealer! This makes me totally devoted to the peach spectrum, hell, I may as well be dribbling peach juice and growing peach fuzz (I heard that Nads Facial Wax is good for that).

Anyway moving on, this is my fuzzy face from a few days ago, of nude subtle peachy tones with a hint of pink. Alas, I was going for an office job interview, so I couldn't wear bright spanking glittery peach to display my inner showgirl. But that’s the thing with peach, it’s just so versatile!

Now ladies, go and grab yourself some peaches, I’m off to hunt down some Nads.

Neglected much?

Well I know I haven't posted for more than awhile, and I am sorry for that I miss posting! So, my bloggy readers, alot has happened to me this year! I've:

- Changed jobs

- Relocated housing

- Moved interstate

- Gained a couple of kilos (irrelevant)

- My cat passed away

- Grew a third eye

One of those points might be fiction actually. Let's play true or false.

Anyway I'll start off with a simple little FOTD, nothing spectacular. I've lost a bit of my makeup mojo this year, so I haven't done any spunky looks of late. Hopefully, this look will be enjoyed anyway!
