August's FB Updates

Merdeka month past and now is September 2013! August was an awesome month for me because I finally ran my very first half marathon. Not only that, I also won 10th place in Borneo International Marathon 2013 (10km Women Open). August 2013 was my lucky month! :)

By official timing & placing, I'm No:10 in Women's Open 10km Category. I'm still very happy as I didn't expect to go on podium. #borneointernationalmarathon #BorneoInternationalMarathon2013 #borneomarathon #bim2013 #BIMHolidays #running #10km #winners

Mary Quant is a makeup brand by fashion designer Mary Quant. Mary Quant recognizes cosmetics as fashion. For her, total coordination, created by combining makeup and fashion to express a sense of oneself, is called a 'look'.

I attended the Mary Quant makeup workshop @MUSE by Watsons with a group of beauty bloggers. The makeup artist for the workshop was Miss Takaki from Japan.

The Special Recipe skincare series have the functions of natural essence such chamomile, daisy, rosemary, wild thyme and honey. The price for this skincare series is ranging from RM119 - RM159.

For the base makeup, Mary Quant has two makeup base and an eye makeup base.
