Makeup Woes

I borrowed Yyn's digicam yesterday as I was going to the bridal shop to try on my 4.5 inch high wedding heels with the gown...

Was afraid that the front of my gown may be a lil short after the extra height... (U see, the previous time I tried it on, I couldn't try it with my actual heels as my feet was still suffering from the "trotter-effects" of my sprain) So today I dropped by juz to try it out accompanied by my Queen-of-all-Bridesmaids - Ezen...

Ezen will be the main gurl helping me out with my gown, touching up of my makeup and the nitty-gritty... I'm so happy coz she's really good at all these!

While looking through the photos of the gown in the cam and thinking how I want it modified, guess what I found? Some pics that sis and I took during my trial makeup at the bridal studio from 2 months back!

My eyes look a lil weird coz... It's the return of the eyelid-stickers!

There's a story behind eyelids stickers... U see, when I was a young kid, I did not have double eye lids. My mum who was a beautician back then, stuck these awkward stickers on my eyes every day, in the hope that I would have BIG eyes and double eyelids like hers... (of coz i wld fidget n peel it off when she's not looking... :P)

Mum and her big eyes...

Some of my friends have even heard of the episode of mum rubbing my head with hard liquor coz I had such little hair when I was a baby. And the nose-bridge pinching every night to make sure I would have a sharp nose.... All the old wife tales........ tsktsktsk...........

(clearly, non of the method works.... Though my mum would like to think otherwise n remind my sis how much the stickers wld haf worked for her if she had listened....... -_- )

Anyhows, for the entire afternoon I felt like I was 5 years old again, waiting for the right moment to peel the sticker off my eyes... and FYI, falsies were not included yet..... I tried on the falsies on a separate occasion and u can bet my last buck that I was EXTREMELY uncomfortable....

See how un-natural my eyelids look?!!?!?

Well, I guess I can only tell myself that I should be thankful I've been trained at a young age to tahan such "vain-pain"!!!!! PUI! hahahaha......
