Work done?

Hi everyone,
Hope you all had a great weekend. I spend most of my weekend packing up my house. I can't believe that I will be leaving here in 1 ½ week. Not long to go at all. I feel I have been pretty organised but last minute stress is really starting to hit me now, yikes!
Was browsing the net on a packing break & came across these photo's of Megan Fox at the premiere of her new film Jonah Hex  in Hollywood on June 17. She looks so different & there are lots of rumours going around that she has had some plastic surgery done recently. 

So what do you think; has she or hasn't she had work done?!

I personally think she has but I can't quite work out what exactly is different - perhaps the cheeks? She is so gorgeous & she definitely didn't need any surgery. I have nothing against plastic surgery at all and in some cases you can see great improvements. But in this case think she is now looking a little "fake"
Beside the plastic surgery confusion for me I do really like her hair and makeup in this look. The dress is beautiful, striking in red but maybe a little too low cut for me..well I couldn't pull it off anyway haha.

Who says DIY is not for girls? :p

Hi my lovelies,
So the other day I accidentally (duh) dropped my MAC Springsheen blush compact on the floor..and **SMASH** all the powder was broken and spread across the wooden floor :( There wasn't that much left in the compact but I still didn't want to just throw it away. So I picked up the broken pieces and decided to DYI fix it! This is how I did it:

The main subject - the broken blush :(

1) Move the broken product into a paper towel & with a spoon (or other object) gently crush it down to a powdery consistency. 

2) Place the powder into a little bowl and add some drops of rubbing alcohol (not the kind of alcohol you can drink girls!) haha

3) Mix the powder & alcohol until it becomes like a paste.

4) Spoon the paste back into the compact & smooth out with cling-film.

Remove the cling film and leave the compact open to dry. This could take anywhere from 1 to 4 hours. For best results, let the make up to dry overnight to allow the alcohol to evaporate and for the powder to become stiff and ready to use!

Tada, my DIY fixed blush. Such a proud moment!

Who say's DYI is not for girls right? ;)

Look-alike?

For years and years now people are always telling me...."Oh wow, do you know who you look like? That girl from American Beauty/American Pie!! What's her name again"....So OK apparently I look like Mena Suvari. Well as a laugh I thought  I would copy a look of an imagine I found of her online and ask you girls...
What do you think: Me & Mena, do we look-alike? :)

Make up used for this look was very simple! 

Eyes: Coastal Scents 26 Blush Combo Palette - coral e/s, NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk & Mascara 

Lips: MAC Plink! 

I'm interested to see your comments ;)

That has to be my FOTN from May 2, 2010. Grey & black smokey eye. Love wearing dark eye makeup when going out! Va Va Voom :p

Last eye shadow you fell in love with:
NARS Night Star. I don't actually have it (...yet). My friend owns it and as soon as I saw it I just knew I had to have it. She is hopefully picking it up for me (cheap) in Bangkok this week. Can't wait to create some new looks with it.

Last blush you wore:
MAC Springsheen...and then I dropped it on the floor and it broke :( But I know how to repair them so that's on my list to do.

Last time you washed your brushes:
On Sunday gave most of my brushes a good clean, I use MAC brush cleaner.

Last nail polish you removed:
Can't quite remember. Haven't been wearing nail polish in a while because my nails have been super brittle lately. They keep breaking and splitting :( So giving them a break from polish and upping my calcium intake, hope that will fix them!
