Makeover and Mother's Day..

My che already made an appointment for Connie and i to have a makeover at Estee-Lauder that evening we came back from Bali...so after we dropped our luggage, we caught a cab and went to Midvalley for our makeover...we didn't really care much for the makeover..Connie only wanted to get some Estee-Lauder products..and so did i..more for my che than myself...so we paid RM280 each for the makeover and we were entitled to redeem RM230 worth of Estee-Lauder products...

Thus started our makeover process...it was Connie's 1st time...and my 3rd..i think..my make-up artist must have groaned inwardly at his bad luck for getting a face with horribly prominent eyebags and spots and pimples...and he had been painting faces for the last 10 hours...but he was still pleasant..there were 4 types of make-up i could choose from...classical, natural, romantic and dramatic..hehe, as predicted, i chose romantic...personally, i couldn't see the difference among the 1st 3 choices..but i definitely do not have a penchant of drama..

While waiting to get my hair done, i went to redeem the Estee-Lauder products...got my che the vibrating mascara which she coveted..and a face scrub for myself..sigh...skin care and make-up are so expensive...vanity is expensive...when it was my turn for my hairdo, the hairstylist asked me if i preferred curls or straight hair...i said i didn't mind curls...so curls it was..it's amazing how she could actually use the straight iron to curl my hair..

Connie took a little longer than i did to get her face and hair done...so i waited for her before we both chose the dresses we would be photographed in..she wore a cobalt blue halter neck dress which really complimented her fair skin..and i donned on a toga-style white dress..then it was photo-shooting session..the photographer put us in various poses and took 15 shots...then we had to choose one photo we liked the best to be printed out as an A4 size pic (with photoshop finish)..hehe, i actually liked my make-over look (though i didn't really look like me anymore) so i had a hard time choosing...but eventually i chose one..and vanity talked me into buying the soft copy containing all my 15 shots for Rm100...sigh...

This is my 'photoshop'ed look...

And this is my personal favourite...;P

Sunday was Mother's Day..so our whole family including Connie and Becky went for dim sum buffet breakfast at Pearl International Hotel..we ate so much we were stuffed to our neck...i'm glad that i got to spend some time with my family before i came back to KK...my niece Rainbow is still a bit shy with me..my bro-in-law Jeff said that she'd warm up to me better if i spent more time with her when i'm back home r ather than just coming back for a day or 2 before flying off to my next holiday somewhere...i guess he has his point...

Then it was time to rush to the airport for our flight back to KK...back to reality and EOD calls..sigh...
