rants & ramblings

After my take on Miss Yaya's Doll Contest, i felt all giddy in trying out other contests....not because i want to have a chance in winning...(well,that too..lol!) but because it was such a challenge coming up with make up looks...

Though as what i said, i am jinxed when it comes to contests...but what i like is the fact that i am gaining experience in knowing the ropes of doing such looks...

Like lining the eyes using liquid liners...i for one steer away from liquid liners before, but because of the contests, i have to use it to give it a more defined look..

For us, makeup freaks..(lol!i made it sound bad!)..ok, for us makeup lovers,

A couple of the ongoing contests that you might wanna try are:
Joining a contest is not just about winning but gaining learning experience that will help you in the future. The prizes are just additional...

Take it from me...
As what i said, i almost haven't won anything on my life - when it comes to contests...XD
(except La Belle Mel's contest which is just recently.on which i really freaked out when i saw my name) so i just have to accept the fact that im jinxed!
XD

As what the saying goes...'experience is the best teacher'
& you will learn a lot from all of this!
^_^

so you'll see more contest entry from now on...
:-P
