Collective Haul: MAC

Ola Señoritas! (And maybe some guys too, if you're reading this.)

There's some new followers, a BIG HELLO to you, thank you so much for following my blog and my journey.

Anyways, i've purchased these items over a period of time, hence, Collective. It's not anything new, more like, i finally managed to get my hands on some of these very sought after items thanks to Sg_Beauty and a friend. I have to say though, i love browsing through Sg_Beauty over the weekends, as that's when there's new posts with people selling their stash. Items can be brand new, swatched or even used. So i'm glad that i came across a seller selling her backups for MAC's Stereo Rose and Petticoat MSF. Bought both for $50 each, which i guess is pretty good, since they're brand new and all, and no they are not available at MAC counters at the moment. I actually purchased Stereo Rose first and immediately fell inlove and swore that i will become a MSF junkie. I wanted to get all the MSF's available only because it gave me such a lovely look. But i calmed down, and purchased Petticoat about 2 weeks after.

They both give me such a lovely hue, and i'm so extremely pale, everyone keeps telling me i should get a little tan to add some colour. But these two just gives my cheeks a nice pop of colour which looks so natural too. Love it! Honestly though, i was a tad bit disappointed when i received Stereo Rose, I've seen some with such lovely veinings, with more gold but mine is just bleh. I love it still, but i love love love my Petticoat partially because of its beautiful veinings, (i'm a sucker for anything pretty) and it's lovely on me! I ain't going to swatch them, cuz there must be a million you can find online, they are after all, highly raved about.

I'm glad i've bought these babies.I secretly still wanna own every MSF though. I know, insane.

I also managed to get a brand new MEHR lippie from another seller, i believe its from the Mickey Contractor collection. Its matte, but ain't so drying on the lips. Its kinda like a dirty creamy pink and smells of vanilla. YUMS!

That's all i have for now. The princess is demanding my attention, more like she's demanding food. So that's me signing off. Thanks for reading!

A baby brewing, again?!

I can't thank the people who have followed my blog from the get-go for all your words of encouragement and love. Thank you for pushing me to write again. It warms my heart to hear when my readers tell me they enjoyed reading my journey and somehow felt like they were right there with me too. Big love to you all.  Here i am sitting down and staring at the screen. I feel rusty. I haven't done this in a while. My last post was, well ages ago! But - hello! Seeing as i set up this baby blog of mine some 6 years ago, i felt it is only right that i continue writing in it seeing as, as most of you would know by now, i am baking baby number 2 in the oven! I'm in the last leg of my pregnancy now. I'd call it the 'uncomfortable' stage.  Where you feel like a whale,  your legs are sore,  your body's aching and the baby is kicking like there's no tomorrow.  But,  kicking is good.  Kick away baby,  so momma knows you're growing well.  So let's ...

Be your own woman.

I've been meaning to pen this down for a while. Something rather nasty happened to me over New Years which should not have happened, but it did. Lets just say that i was told by a man (not my boyfriend, for if he said such a thing we wouldn't be together)  that "Women need to be women - and you are not" . He went on to tell me something along the lines that the Man IS the man of the house . And i don't know if what he meant was that i should bow down and let a man do whatever in the household but that was how it sounded like to me. Now, for people who know me - they know i'm a very strong woman. I have had a pretty tough time growing up. Even harder paving my way through life. And the biggest change came when i had my beautiful daughter. But some how, i have pushed through and i can safely say - i'm in a good position in my life now. It WILL only get better. Prior to having my kid, i did not have much working experience. Yes, i worked in the F&B...

Low Self Esteem Post-Pregnancy?!

I've had writers block for months to be honest. I felt things were just getting pretty monotonous with this blog and just lost my motivation to write for a while. Then i thought, this is not only a baby blog! It's for you, the mummies, who take the time to read about my journey. I wanted to be able to write about things that bothered me as a mom. Things that not many would write about. Things that truly were embarassing or even ashamed to talk about. So you could share this part of my journey too and know that if you feel like how i do, you are not alone! :) Well, as the title suggest, i had a bout of self esteem problems right after Kiara came along. This was totally new to me! I was always very confident about myself. I loved how i looked, talked, walked etc. I loved my flaws too. I guess that was also because i somehow managed to maintain the slim figure etc. I was even very confident about myself when i was pregnant. I felt beautiful. (Note: Not all pregnant women seems to ...
