Would you rather? Tag

So I'm stuck at home today because I got the sore eyes and as much as I hate work I don't want to spread virus so being the good person that I am I decided to stay at home and get cured.

And while I am here I decided to update my blog with a tag post. hehe Yes this shows you I have nothing worth posting so far... please just bare with me. LOL

Let's start...

1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up?
= This is very easy, Messy hair and nice Makeup. Just because this is what I do almost everyday. Honestly I could care less about my hair. hehe

2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?
= Errr... this is so gruesome! Uhm... have my eyelashes fall out, I guess. Because no eyebrows is just so... alien-like to me and I can't live with that.

3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?
= I'd choose Sephora. To be honest, I don't own a MAC makeup yet alone shop there. I just... I don't know... I never really got into it. But with Sephora you can get so many great brands in one shop which is more my thing.

4.Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?
= Lipgloss/Lipliner because this is less heartbreaking. haha

5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
= Overdone blush because I just cannot stand obvious foundation line... it's one of those thing I cannot deal with.

6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?
= ................................ after 10 mins.................
Biker shorts I guess? Because MC Hammer pants will make me look even shorter than I already am.

7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?
= wow! This is just.... okay... Bad orange-y spray tan because at least you'd look like Miss Hawaiian Tropics than like a dalmatian with weird tan lines... :p

8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color?
= Haircut. Because you can always find a way to hide that like with a ponytails or headband but haircolor is hard to deal with.

9.Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?
= Twitter. Youtube is far more entertaining than twitter. At least Facebook wasn't in the choices LOL phew!

10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?
= Makeup brushes. Because you can always use your hands or those applicators.

Okay so that's my answers... now I'm tagging everyone reading this. And comment below your post so I can read them.

My Instant Brush Cleanser Experience


I was having a bit of a lazy ass kick last night and my make-up brushes were dying to be cleaned. Cleaning your brushes is definitely a must! You use them on your face most of time so you better make sure you clean them after use otherwise all the bacteria will be on your skin causing a breakout. Anyway, I decided to get an Instant Brush Cleanser recipe off the internet because I don't want to hassle myself with the deep cleaning. So I found one that was easy to do and I have most of the ingredients.

Ingredients:
Water
Shampoo
Dish washing detergent
Alcohol
Leave-In Conditioner (I skipped this cause I don't have one)

You mix them all in a bowl but try not to stir them too much cause you don't want them to bubble up.

From the recipe I read you pour the mixture in a small bowl and dip your brush in then flip it back and forth with a clean towel/cloth.

So I took my foundation brush and did the procedure. At first I can see that the foundation is coming off the brush but when I checked it thoroughly I found that it doesn't really clean the brush well. You can still see the foundation inside the bristles, so I kept flipping my brush back and forth on the towel and after a good 5 mins I gave up a decided to go to the sink and deep clean my brush.

But I didn't give up on the recipe just yet (I mean let's be honest it'd be a waste!) so I tried cleaning my eye brushes and it worked fine. I guess it could be the foundation itself making it hard to remove from the brush. So I'm not sure if I want to recommend this recipe just because after all the trouble I gone through with this brush cleanser it made deep cleaning much easier. After I clean the brush with the towel I had to rinse the brush with water because you can feel the soap in it.

It did help cleaning my eye brushes easily though, either way out of 5 I give this recipe a 2.

If you have a better recipe let me know because I really want an Instant cleanser but I don't want to waste cash for the Mac Cleanser even though I heard good reviews on it. I'm sure there's one I can just make at home... hehe

Googled @ ya!

My partner/bestfriend is one of the MOST indecisive person I've ever met in my life. But I guess everyone of us have certain things we couldn't decide on. Especially when you have too many things in mind, you JUST have a hard time figuring out what to do or in my bestfriend's case, what to eat! Following Becky Bloomwood's words, Yes She Googled! She went to google.com and typed "what to eat for lunch" ahahaha absolutely hilarious! My bestfriend is weird and funny that way. I love her for it. :)

Okay I'm sure all of us have a little secret of google-ing mundane things... so SPILL IT!

WHAT IS THE WEIRDEST/EMBRASSING THING YOU GOOGLED?
(don't worry no one will judge you *wink*)
