In the beginning,there was nothing but.. a Powder Brush..
If it werent for Mineral Make Up, I wouldnt even care less about cosmetic brushes. Before, the only brush that I had in my purse was my ever reliable P50 powder brush from Avon Cosmetics. But when I became a part of the ever-famous circle of MMU addicts, I realized that my goody old powder brush wouldnt do the job. So with a heavy heart, I threw it out and logged on to Ebay and got myself the following:

This marked the beginning of a new phase for me. And so my addiction grew, to the point that I would scout International sites (Coastal Scents, and Ebay Singapore among others) to get myself all sorts of make up brushes. Yes, it is a very expensive, bank-account-draining hobby, but to someone who's just starting out with make up, every peso spent has been worth it. Thanks to GT for intriducing me to this so-called Make Up Fantasy.

My first real blogging experience..
Finally, after Sis Aika's numerous requests for me to put up my own blog, I decided to create one which will feature my one and only love - - MAKE UP! Anything about make up, from brushes, palettes, MMU and non- MMU, just name it, and I'll have it posted here. But aside from make up, you may see random posts about other vanity thingies that I may come across on top of my daily routine. So just sit back and enjoy the view.
P.S. Im not a photographer nor a graphic artist, so please do excuse the kind of photography that you are about to witness. ;-)
