Vanity and Fluffy

The vain Fluffy strikes again... haha..... Miss Fluffy went for a makeover today. The main reason I guess is she realises that age is catching up and hence, she should try to preserve some of her lovely looks on film.

It was a relatively fun experience. This is not my first makeover but the last time I did this was years ago when I was still an undergraduate. Time really flies yah... I have changed from the wrinkle free sweet young thing to this lady with lines in her face that needs touch ups!! (sigh) We started with makeup followed by hair do and finally photoshoot. Initially, the makeup artist was so fierce..... got reprimanded for a whole range of things including the heat on my face, my triple eyelids for the day (due to lack of sleep), my wrong colour foundation (truth is, my face was naked, I think she just could not accept the fact that I am so fair!) and the lack of arch of my eye brows. Luckily she managed to loosen up towards the middle of the session and was really detailed with my whole makeup and hairdo. I got a smoky eyes look with curls.... I felt really bad that she had to spend so much time correcting my triple eyelids and coaxing my extremely fine hair to curl (she used about half a can of hair spray on my hair to get it to stay curly.... yes... that is how fine my hair is...)she managed to complete my look only after my friend finished her first photo shoot. The girl in the mirror really do not look like me.... she looks like a doll with really big eyes (seriously, I have never realise that my eyes can be that big!!) The stylist must be pretty happy with her work too.. complimenting me again and again when she was done (heehee!) The next big step is posing for the photographer... it was actually kind of awkward to smile and pose just for the purpose of photograph taking (so fake!! :P) and the photographer just seemed to be able to differentiate between my fake smile and real smile. I think it is quite difficult to capture a good looking angle for me.... he started having a whole lot of theories like I can smile widely if he is taking from the left, cannot smile if he is taking from the right etc etc etc... and I have to look at different locations, tilt my body, turn my face etc etc... but I think he did managed to find the angle he was looking for,.. the shoots for the second outfit were nicely then the first!!!

I really did enjoy this lovely and fun experience (I do hope that I will not get addicted to photo taking again!!). It was really refreshing and amazing to see how one can look different just after makeup and the creative work of stylists. I am looking forward to another session in the future to see how much my looks will change with the years... heehee..... stay tuned for the end product!! (which is a mth later!!!!)Till then...ciao!!!!!

好奇與瞎扯

最近﹐ 因無聊而閱讀了一系列的八卦雜誌﹐ 不盡對這些狗仔隊開始有所敬佩。 他們真的好會瞎扯﹐ 無中生有﹐ 小題大做還富有創意。 時常能把黑說成白﹐ 構思著怎麼讓人對某話題起好奇與疑心。逼著與話題扯上關係的人也發揮創意出來澄清﹐仿彿誰的創意高﹐誰就能贏讀者的心。在這過程中﹐ 似乎遺忘了那些無辜被扯進八卦的人。他們的心情又是怎樣的呢? 他們的有心無意瞎扯也許已斷送了一個人的前途﹐ 傷害了一份真摯的情感﹐ 破壞了一場友誼。這些就為了滿足好奇心與提高銷售? 太殘忍了吧? 也許成名真的是需要付出代價的吧!!
