FAQs

People are always asking me these questions...

1. How did you managed to get your lashes to curl like that?

I don't use lash curlers. I only need a Maybelline mascara, which cost about RM35.90 only. And I don't know how to explain to you how I apply my mascara. But here are a few Maybelline mascaras which will do wonders for your eyes:


Define-A-Lash (not available in Malaysia)

Magnum Volum' Express

Volum' Express

2. How long does it take you to do your makeup?

Full makeup takes about 30 minutes. If I'm in a rush, I can do it in 15 minutes.

3. How to put on false lashes?

Practice! My first attempt at using falsies was at 15 years old. Failed miserably. And I don't know how to teach you how to put on false eyelashes! But here's a tip: DON'T USE THE GLUE THAT COMES WITH THE LASHES. Those glues are hopeless! Buy a good eyelash adhesive at Sasa or Shins instead. I'm using this Korean-made adhesive, DON EYELASH ADHESIVE, priced around RM8.90-RM12.90. I can't remember. But don't buy the RM20-something eyelash glue at Watsons (can't remember the name either, but it's packaged in a nail polish-like bottle). That adhesive is also hopeless!

4. How much does it cost you to curl your hair?

Free! DIY at home! I use the long sponged rollers. Before curling my hair, I sprayed on Lucido-L Hair Curl Lotion. For best results, keep the curlers on overnight. But usually, a few hours will do. To make my curls last longer, I use Lucido-L Superhard Hair Spray.

2 hours of curling will result in waves like in this picture. Sleeping overnight with the curlers will result in tight curls.

5. What type of foundation are you using?

ZA True White or Now Edition foundation. Not sure about the full price, but the refills are priced at RM34.
