Hello.
Joining the self-portrait Tuesday bandwagon.
This is me, the Queen of procrastination, putting off getting ready for bed. You’d think that simply taking out my contact lenses, brushing my teeth and washing my face weren’t difficult enough to justify dawdling.
This is generally how I look post-shower and in comfy home clothes. Aside from the affected facial expression (which, I just noticed, would work as one of the lovely Angela‘s sotong of the month photos if she were still selecting them), I am completely natural here: messy hair in dollar store hair claw and make-up free. Thank your lucky stars I didn’t point the camera down any lower to show you my body, sans bra, in a flimsy tank top. I’ll spare you from that degree of natural. Consider that my V-day gift to you all. 😀

This could be good or bad, but I think you look great without makeup with your hair up in a dollar store claw. In fact, I’m not sure I can even tell the difference. So does this mean that your makeup is all natural looking? Or does this mean that your makeup hides nothing? Hmm… I don’t think you have anything to hide.

Thanks, Reesie! I don’t actually wear lots of make-up on a regular basis. Dave actually thinks I look worse with it on! Haha! I don’t dig pancake make-up, so when I have it on at all it’s just there to accentuate my features. 😛
I think I’ll have to pull an Aimee and share my beauty routine with the Internet. 🙂 The one thing I put on consistently is blush or cheek stain. I call it “fake health.” Sometimes there’s tinted moisturizer involved not so much for coverage, but for sun protection and other fun. In Singapore, I tended to use more powder since it was always sticky sweaty. Ugh.

Well, I wouldn’t mind a braless shot or two. Ahem. But anyway!
I am at the local cafe-bar-restaurant loitering for my next meeting to kick off which should happen in about a half-hour. Yeah, I just can’t seem to get enough of Chinese life in the northeast suburbs of Toronto. But I have obligations that need to be met first. And then I need to convince someone else to brave the cold to join me. I don’t think she’ll have a problem defecting though.
