How to Apply Fake Eyelashes, A Lunch Date and More Elmo

There are 2 school of thoughts when it comes to fake eyelashes: those that know how to apply it themselves and those that don't. Follow my steps for a quick and easy guide.

Step 1: Gather your materials.

Eye Putti recommended by Sue.  It's really meant to be a double eyelid adhesive, comes complete with a scary looking (yet pink!) mini pitchfork meant for creating a fold above your eye.

Other good-to-have tools but not essentials are mascara, eyelash curler and eyeliner.  You use these to try to camouflage your natural eyelashes so they blend seamlessly in with the fakes ones. I just realised all of my eye makeup stuff in this picture are Japanese: Deja Vu Fiberwig mascara, Sheseido curler and Majolica Majorca eyeliner.

Step 2: Yell for Hubs and persuade him to help stick on the fake eyelashes :D I'm a complete klutz so he always (grudgingly) helps me stick them on.

I met up with Shian for a belated birthday afternoon tea. Unfortunately no pics as we were too busy eating, chatting and window shopping! Shian, I'm so sorry I broke your water tumbler :( I promise I'll get you a new one for your birthday.

And if you need proof on how toddlers are easily entertained, all you need is a ball point pen and a steady hand. Hubs sketched out Elmo on Bubs's leg which delighted him to no end. He even bent over to kiss Elmo good night during bedtime.
