[CLOSED] Anna Sui Goodies

FAQ & DISCLAIMER

About Me

My name is Sophia, and I am in my early 30s. I am from Singapore and I am the sole writer of this blog.

About this Blog

I started this blog in 2006, I like to use a wide range of brands though I seem to have a growing preference for higher-end brands in recent years. I also like to share interesting things I have come across about makeup and beauty.

Currently The Makeup Blogette receives 39,000 unique views monthly or 2,238,932 views and counting.

My Makeup Style

I like classic looks (neutral tones on eyes, anything goes for lips & cheeks), though occasionally I try out dramatic/ statement looks. I believe that a flawless base is the key to achieving great makeup looks. I also believe that if you don't have great skin to start with, fake it with a good foundation routine, and even greater skincare. I am currently loving Clarins & Lancome skincare products, and Vichy NormaDerm for tackling with breakouts.

What Cameras do I use?

Most of the pictures you see in post 2010 entries are taken with my Canon G-11. Previously I was using Canon Ixus 80. I do post some pictures which are taken with my iphone4 which I will state in that particular entry. I have stopped watermarking my pictures as of 2011, because I think watermarks are ugly in general, and does not prevent people from stealing my pictures if they wish to. I just take it as a compliment that my pictures are even worth stealing in the first place. I might look into getting a Canon EOS next year, not just for blogging purposes, but I also like photography in general.

My Favourite Makeup Brand(s)

It is hard to name just one, but I like NARS, Chanel, Illamasqua and the ocasional Guerlain, Dior & Urban Decay item. I own quite a stash of MAC items, but recently I have stopped catching up with their collections, and I much prefer to splurge on a few really outstanding items.

Where to find me

Twitter (link button above!) Email (stated above!) Instagram (makeup_blogette)

I have no official Facebook fan page, and currently have no intention to start one at all. The Makeup Blogette remains my personal hobby and property, so as such, I don't believe in having a Facebook fanpage for it.

Final Disclaimer

I bought/ paid for all of the products mentioned in this blog. I am not affliated to any company. If certain products are sent to me for review purposes, I will say so and express my honest opinions about them. In any case, I will only review and showcase the products which I have personally tried and tested, and enjoy using. I do not get paid to review anything.

No ads, no paid links etc please. I am in charge of all content and pictures here.

I am not a makeup artist, nor do I have any professional training in makeup.

[CLOSED] Anna Sui Goodies

Today, I received a package from Anna Sui today, and one of the items is this Anna Sui coffee table book documenting her history, past collectins, memorable images, stories etc etc... this would make a very engaging read for the true hardcore Anna Sui fans. I personally appreciated the trademark Anna Sui design of the book, and the myriad of beautful images inside, all shot by famed fashion photographers, which are really inspiring.

This book is available for sale at Kinokuniya stores.

Let's look at some pages inside:

The outer cover is a fabric-like paper material, with the art nouveau purple embossing details. It is a pretty hefty book, 287 pages.

I personally really admire Steven Meisel's work, he is an American photographer who shot many of Vogue Italia and US covers, and is well known in the high fashion world for his work.

I can sooooo identify with this pic of a younger Anna Sui!

And this new bag from Anna Sui cosmetics is a gift with purchase, it features the DollyGirls against a polka dotted background, and has a vinyl type material, making it easy to wipe and clean.

I had earlier featured the Anna Sui Dolly Girl mascara and lipsticks in this entry HERE.

And I am doing a little giveaway for one of the Anna Sui Dolly Girl mascara!

This giveaway is open worldwide.

ONE lucky reader will get this mascara:

I don't know why I feel hungrier if I eat fruits before a meal. Like SUPER hungry. Is it because of the fruit acids churning inside my stomach? So I can only stick to fruits after meal...Anyway, I love the Makeup Blogette!
