New Discovery: Cat Eyes of different styles

These looks were inspired by Choc magazine, my favourite magazine and yes, I am going to show you all the make up looks I've experimented just in the same order as the magazine did... as well as my video that I will display which I've mainly intended in showing you the listed products I've used.  This blog is just going to be based on my feelings about each of these looks



Look 1: A naughty vintage look-This first one is common and yet simple, so I thought I won't waste time to do the tutorial exactly.  This look is definitely wearable most times since it's subtle.  But being the naughty cat will depend on the outfit decide to wear- To achieve that naughty style, something like a dotty top or dress might look good with being a naughty cat! meow!



Look 2: The sweet & innocent cat eyes
This is my least favourite one so far, all I can say is- disastrous experiment! couldn't blend it like the model did :( It wouldn't be worth doing the tutorial.  Although I personally think it doesn't suit myself, maybe it will suit some of u who loves cat eyes make up looks, good luck!


Look 3: My favourite out of the 4 (The flirty cat eyes)
The special part about this look is the patchy effect on the lower lashes!! Although I couldn't do the patch effect well enough, I will continue to achieve the look much better in the future.... Please continue the video for the make up tutorial & the last look, I hope you will like this look as much as I'm in love with it.  In the make up tutorial for this look, I have used a different colour from blue, all because I want to show the belief different colors such as brown, purple and grey will look great too!  The color I decide to use would be suitable for those might like to play it safe...


Other than using blue eyeliner combining with pink eyeshadow, here are the alternatives I would suggest for this flirty cat eyes look:
1) MAC Beautiful Iris as eyeshadow on lids (top of Bobbi Brown Rich Brown) + Grey of the Japanese eyeshadow palette (right)
2) Jade Green with Grey on the same palette or with Bobbi Brown Rich Brown
3) Apply Pink Freeze like I've used in the video along with ELF purple eyeliner cream
4) Pink Freeze as eyeshadow on eyelid and combine with grey

Look 4: How Exotic?
It's the common one like the 1st cat eyes I've done, but in fact, it's combination of grey and green that's attractive so far, however, again, like the 2nd look, it just simply doesn't suit my eye shape enough.... how I wish Sharon (zizzee, one of my blogtv BFF) can be my make up models for these make up looks?!


Maybe hopefully, she can be my make up models for being Twiggy or the lace make up look I intend to do.... She'll be my excellent make up model for her Caucasian facial features as she has the blue eyes and the shape I need for those make up looks that probably don't suit the flat eyes I have...


Lastly, enjoy my rambling of make up experiments and the tutorials I've included :) and of course also the make up looks inspired by Christina Aguilera in Burlesque movie.

Final interview-Done

I really don't know if I did well or not... just kind of felt I might screwed it up again since there are things that I find it hard to answer?!.... the Human Resources staff and the Performance manager both interviewed me and asked about 20 questions but there are only 3 in particular that I answered it in the most adequate way.... I know I was meant to prove to them my experiences were very closely related to why I'll do great for the job... however... hmm... I won't be sharing all 20 questions and my answers- maybe just a few of what I feel I may answered the best:

-Describe the time where you have showed sympathy and empathy.
I didn't learn the precise ways until I get to work in my last job, however, I'm not sure if this counts for the time I have worked in Cathay Pacific as I was carrying out the task of looking for the missing passengers of a flight to TPE, and it was where an 8-year old girl who was a passenger taking Qantas to Brisbane approached me in tears because she lost her parents... I have asked her if she knows which flight she's taking and asked her to stay with me until my final report to my duty supervisor was done that I would take her to her boarding gate to check there was a sign of her parents.... And then I reported the situation to the supervisor for the flight to see if it's possible to take care of the young girl.... however, very soon, the parents turned up and thanked me for accompanying the girl

-Describe the situation where someone has replied on you completely:
Let me think: I think it would be the time where the flight to Johanesburg had an aircraft change that some passengers had to be down-graded and there was an arrangement where I was sent to the transfer desk to wait for the money, the total quoted that I was expected to take back to airside office was about 20000GBP as a total to refund.... during that time, I waited for 3 hours for the cash to be enclosed.... I had no one to replace me and I was told that I have to wait until the cash was counted correct... throughout the time, I had to be careful with handling the trust I earned because it's all related to what airlines do to compensate to angry passengers and the amount became a crucial issue that's certainly bigger than just a 10pound note that was dropped on the floor that has to be taken seriously.

-What kind of positive feedbacks and negative feedbacks do you hear people say about you?
The positive feedbacks I always hear which helps me to support other team-workers and the passengers who feel the need of someone to make their days is acting as an ice-breaker, this positive feedback has also been heard by my friends outside work as an icebreaker to break down the communication barrier, so it shows no one is alone when I make sure people will have attention equally.  The negative feedback would likely to be coming from my boyfriend who I live with for now as he thinks I'm very impatient with him because I care about what I can do to improve efficiency in results and i really don't like people doing things to delay my expected time of finishing something or the result of it

Another question: not sure, but it sounds quite adequate in some terms?!
-Describe the time you have done something that's extensively beyond your tasks:
I was intending to print off some documents at the boarding gate desk as the printer's out of service in the office.  A passenger at the boarding gate who was from the flight standing by at the boarding gate approached me with the enquiry if it's possible to upgrade his mother, one of the wheelchair passengers to business class for more comfort and convenience.  I've took down the details of the passengers and the wheelchair passenger for the service leader to follow up, if not, at least inform the passengers the possible alternatives.  Although I had other duty tasks to carry out which didn't leave me enough time to assist the passengers fully, I have reassured the wheelchair lady approaching her by telling her I have left the details the staff for the flight to follow up the needs and enquiries, tell anyone if they need anything "Because we are always here to help"

I actually felt like I haven't done well like the first interview.... *sigh* don't know why.... I do feel that those questions were a little more challenge than the other interviews I have faced in the past.... but maybe after, I might not be good enough to fulfill myself to achieve being a flight attendant for any airline?!

There will be much more to go subjected to the ideas to be listed.  I hope there will be a few listed in here that makes most of you to have something to look forward to!  Anywayz, besides the listed videos that are prioritized to be done, have fun with voting the rest!


I'm quite certain for this moment that there will only be one Cantonese video for the time being.... I can only say I'm still shy with using Cantonese for my videos right now and it kind of feels unnatural to do it since I know most viewers out there are non-Chinese speakers.


Although I should've kept my resolutions discreet, well, I guess no harm in sharing?!  For 2011 resolutions to lead myself to be a better person, a happier and healthier person....
-Get myself into my dream job
-Lose weight!! I wanna wear bikini without feeling embarrassed!
-Sleep early!!
-Treat my dad a holiday to The Maldives (somewhere to dive) or Sydney (to visit his life-time best friend)
-Quit smoking?!- I'm not addicted but worth quitting
-Become a better listener-this will help to build a better relationship with anyone, anywhere
