I got my misconception from old, Chinese movies :P Oh wait... I think they were still referred to as "brothels" *shrug*

Desire: not wearing make-up is better for your skin, I think. But then again, what do I know about make-up :)

Re: Makeups...?

Post by mb_rockstar »

Hi DesIre_s,

I use to be into make-up a couple of years ago and ever since I left my cosmetic counter at Macy's, I haven't been wearing much make-up. Once in awhile, I like to doll myself up just for the fun of it or when I go out to see business clients.

I don't like to wear makeup that much but I do sometimes. just for the fun of it.

Make ups

Post by DesIre_s »

I always tend to do that too. Always putting make up on when I have to go to work but I put it on every day because I'm always preparing myself for the unexpected.

That's true...you should always be prepared for the unexpected. If I wake in the morning and see that I look like crap, I try to put a little something on to make myself look awake and fresh. Other than that, I prefer the natural look. lol*

That's True

Post by DesIre_s »

I've always do that. Somehow the looks does matter since it's every day thing but I usually like it to be just a natural. But if I want to cover my pimples or my ugly bumps I usually use make ups.

Hi all !

It's been a long time I didn't drop by :p Makeup can sometimes accomplish miracles lolol

Last Satursday I went to a colleague's wedding and I wanted to look good and my sis helped me to put some make-up and the result was amazing huhuhu (unfortunately, when I removed it, I looked some kind of different lololol with all big red pimples back like usual kekekeke).

You should try Mickey, it could help you sometimes :D

NB: the sis was not Nganh, she's as bad as I am for make-up lololol

i'm ready for the challenge. ;)
Looks like your dream has changed once you've left the cosmetics industry and found new goals to reach in two entirely different industries (banking and property management) :)

Sometimes, it takes a little push in another direction to help one realize that there are different challenges out there that you may enjoy pursuing more :)

I have had that happen at work about 2 months ago when I decided to finally turn around in my computer career and go for a position I was always scared to try. It will be interesting to see what has happened since this post two years from now :)

I was in banking before working at the cosmetic counter and I wanted to try something new and different. Yes, I see now that I was naive in saying that a position like that would be my dream job. At least I did it for a whole year and I don't regret any moment of it. I definitely learn a lot being a counter manager and it has helped me to my current position today as a property manager. My communication skills with external customers have increase quite a bit, however.....and sad to say, I am now looking for a position where I don't have to deal with external customers and only focus on internal customers.

Ultimately, I would like to get back into banking. It is what I know best and as long as I work in the corporate office, I believe I should be fine.

Yes...It will definitely be interesting to see what happens another 2 years from now. :)
