Day1 - When did you start putting on makeup?

Scanning through my memory lane, hmmm... In my post Like Mother like Daughter, I did mention that I started wearing makeup (of course on special occasions & performances!) since Grade 1. Everytime I had a dance presentation or whatever we call it (gosh! haha!) , my mom would always love to prettify her cute daughter (ooops! ahaha joke!) . I have the most supportive Mom ever! I could never ever forget her signature lipstick - RED LIPSTICK!

But of course, I started putting makeup (on my own) when I was in college. It was just a simple foundation-eye liner-lip gloss combination. I started to learn how to put blushes and tossing all my lip glosses (and fell in love with lipsticks) and fixing my brows when I started working in a contact center then afterwards as Costumer Service Rep (we were required to be physically presentable as we face hundreds of customers per day - a telco company). One of my makeup mentors was my Business Officer who loves makeup too! And also, a colleague of mine introduced me to this awesome Youtube Makeup Guru, Michelle Phan. And then I started reading beauty blogs and stuff.. So there! I practiced and practiced and practiced and got inspired..

How about you ladies, When did you start putting on makeup?

In my HAUL post, I did mention that I was asking for an EYEBROW POWDER and then the sales lady gave me this. I was in a hurry. I did check the colors but didn't bother checking the label. When I arrived home, I was shocked to see that she gave me an EYESHADOW SET!!! Hey hey hey! I want to get mad, but after testing it. One thing is true, i LOVE IT!

Well, we all know we can use an eyeshadow as brow powder as long as it matches our brow color. Maybe the Eyebrow set was out of stock.

This set is very handy. I always take this with me anywhere I go. The shades are perfect for natural/everyday makeup. It is very pigmented even without an eye primer. I am deeply inlove with this set that I just can't leave the house without this in my bag. Hihi! The staying power is just amazing! It lasts for 8-12 hours, no creasing! Cool right? Haha.
