{ VINTAGE FRESH }

I am not a make-up person. I can get by each day with merely a lip balm and a face powder. Early this year I bought a huge set of make-up for me to practice on. But it still sat there in my room seldom touched. I want to learn but I am too lazy to watch youtube tutorials or read tips from magazines (beauty isn't my fave section).  I envy those who have patience to sit steadily in front of the mirror and spend thirty minutes or more to prep up.  I think I also have to master the courage to spend PhP 1000++ for a lipstick. Everytime I see a price tag that costs that much it would always translate to a brand new pair of shoes  that costs the same. Or the quantity of vintage clothes I could buy with that amount. So it all boils down to priorities and make-up is always on the tail end. 
Part of my ultimate make-up goal is to learn how to do the smokey eyes, draw the most perfect of eyebrows, put on false eyelashes in a jiffy, and go to Rustan's, take a deep breath and buy that ridiculously beautiful pink MAC Lipstick I have been eyeing for quite some time now.

these photos remind me so much of the movie memoirs of geisha...so pretty! make up is also almost always at the bottom of my list. I usually get by with just a BB cream and a good lipstick.
