塗唇膏的最高境界. 某名人說:我最喜歡的唇膏色調有：玫瑰色調、暗紅（像被牙咬後的bitten lips）色調和蓮藕暗灰紫色調。這三種色系都能分別達到似有若無的唇妝效果，呈現粉嫩自然的嘴唇。秘訣在把唇膏直接往唇上塗後，用面紙把嘴唇印完再印，直到唇膏全移往面紙上，唇上只餘殘留的色彩便成。
我試完有一絲驚喜: 為什麼可以咁自然, 而且若有若無真的好可愛.
美人是天生的事, 但就算天生美人後天不補給應該都會係美人早暮。似有沒有的上妝應該係最高境界，最美莫過於最自然的美！但美人再美素顏都難比塗上紅唇的女人更精神！
正如再美的珍珠都要經過拋光才令顔色和光澤更突出，再美的寶石也需要切割才能將光芒盡露！
美係不添加，係將最好的突現！有時候想想珠寶和人是多麼相似。當你將紅寶加熱到接近溶點的時候它的淨度和顔色會升華，但本質不變，亦會有瑕疵——-正如人經歷各種人生的考驗增值了一樣。而本身有缺陷的紅寶你填上玻璃令它看上去很美，顏色淨度仿佛無可挑剔——-但它永遠都是glass filled ruby, 價值也是市場最低，沒有任何一絲收藏價值，因為glass會因時間與主體脫離！這和整容是不是一樣道理？
這兩年工作變化很多, 不變的是作品質量和服務! 就算HK$100/對耳環我都希望用最閃的珍珠. Metallic color 是千中無一的, 亦是我做貨必然之选! 這個原因令我可以自信地說: 你要在外面找到比我更閃的珍珠, 更乾淨更美顏色的寶石機會不多. 你也許因此知道我的工作模式: 所有產品都由我最後創作, 無論寶石產品由師傅鑲作, 設計到每一個detail 如挑選寶石鑽石, 配搭什麼珍珠都是由我決定, 更不要說穿珠手工之類的創作. 只因每一件作品都是由我親手創作/接生, 所以你不需要出示任何收據, 我都會為你做終生保養(免費重穿, 維修不堅固). 當然不計你自己對自己的珠寶不珍惜和遺失. 對你的珠寶如對你自己/情人一樣好, 它便會陪你一輩子, 永不變心(就算半路出現狀況, 我有100%把握可以fix😁😊).
你永遠不會明白我比你更緊張你的珠寶, 因為你的滿意是促使我進步的動力. 假如一個business 只以賺$為出發點, 我相信做business 的人少了我很多快樂. 我感恩每一位欣賞我們作品的朋友客戶, 感恩很多客戶成為朋友, 為我分擔分享分憂分食物.............
2018一定會是更好的一年, 我祝福你我永遠保持赤子之心, 給予更多! Happy Chinese New Year My Dearest Friends!!!!!!
I wrote the following blog in my jewellery page, which I could really see how much I've grown up.
2015 is such a great year which is a year of growth and maturity, I left the 8 years warm house & experienced all the greatest moments also moments I broke down. A year I saw the most beautiful people also the darkest side of human beings. I decided to play fool to those "unhappy events" & continue to be an "Ar Q" in my life. Afterall, life is way more beautiful if we have a giving, caring and forgiving heart. But do remember all "those experience" because they made us wiser.
Happy New Year of Monkey my lovely friends!!!
-------------------------------
在這普天同慶的日子，我祝福我所有親朋好友來年身體健康，萬事順利！
I visited Guanajuato for over a week of time, a small town where I spent 1 year studying 8 years ago. Not much has changed, only less small family owned shops but more tourist attractions. The streets are still the same but no more foreign students (due to the drug & war problems).
Everything's the same price but it's 40% cheaper to me since the exchange rate is like HK$2.2 to 1 peso while it was HK$1.3 to 1 peso.
Friendship is the same I had friend picking me up from the airport at 6am, friend who travelled 2 hours to bring me her homecooked mole with chicken, who tried to spend as much time as possible with me during my stay. But then I was in shock that my teachers of 1 year just welcomed me and received my gifts and not even a coffee together, especially this one who always invited me out for coffee and converstaion because she's super interested in Chinese culture and I thought we're friends, we're connected in facebook too. I asked her to have a cup of coffee with me and catch up, she said she's busy. So we ended up only talking like 15 mins in school. I loved all my teachers and I even sent them gifts 2 years ago when a girl from there visited Hong Kong. They're my first customers before I really mastered jewellery and I always have the gratitude towards them. I'm impressed they actually treated me like a "stranger" but then still felt happy to receive my gifts. I wouldn't be able to do that.
I was of course a bit upset because I wanted to catch up with them that's why I showed up in school. But maybe I should put myself into their shoe, they might never be able to travel abroad so there's no meaning to be nice to me.
It's an experience reminding me to look at people more carefully and stop being nice to everyone. But then I don't think I'm gonna change to be smarter (although I remember the experience from Mexico so well and the above is all my true feeling, which is sad, shocked and disapointed), because I've met so many wonderful people in my life, who're so giving, caring and wonderful to me, I rather be part of these people than those other people.
Same 極品 from the previous article, who I've stopped communicating although she sends me msgs time after time.
She's like never giving up for almost 3 months until she finally realized I didn't even like her and tried to stay away from her after the following incident.
One day she sent me a msg asking me if I find her lack charm or femininity, I simply sent her a question mark then she couldn't help but told me the whole story.
She's admired a guy since university, been friend with him for ages. She did so many for him like comforting him when he's sick and stayed in hospital blah blah blah. But when the guy's checked out from hospital, he's not only staying away from her but also no longer in need of communication with her.
She's upset and made up her mind not to contact him again. A year later he approached her for a Nepal trip which required her full planning. It's a trip of only 2 of them, she's excited and planned everything---maybe it's the chance for both of them to see if there's any chance for development.
There's no doubt at all these front & back earrings will be no longer popular in 1-2 years. Fashion style always comes and goes quickly. This is going to be a great waste to my southsea pearls.
Then I tried to switch the back pearls to the front, it works LOL.
So when you're tired of the front & back style, you can simply switch them and have one pair of giant stud pearl earrings instead. But only girls with big earlobes can handle them because the pearls're 15mm of size, small earlobes wont be able to carry them nicely. I definitely need bigger ones too.
CNY is actually a time of reflection and relaxation which includes endless eating. Makes me feel kinda bad and guilty because there's no exercise. Spent sometime packing for my departure in less than 20days, just realized I've packed so much skin care (hydration masks, moisturizers & sunblocks you know how important they're). My lugguage can't handle all the clothes & stuff so eventually I needed to prepare an extra bag to put in some other stuff like tea & shoes. 3 days without work (before I was always busy working for new products after work, preparing for the next market) actually makes me a bit uncomfortable and lonely, I just realize how much I enjoy being busy. So all I could do was updating my facebook page, guess my ears and side face're so "attractive" so posts with my left face actually draw a lot more views. Interesting.
I guess I might be in the phase of preparing a big change in my life, $ is like burning: tuition fee, visa fee, homestay, transportation & insurance (didn't realize health insurance is so damn expensive). Everything starts with few hundred USD. Seriously am I being worried about these expenses, actually no. But I just wish nothing will make my study less smooth, I want to get the best grades in class, enjoy the sunshine of southern california & learn how to surf, and be a sexy baby.
" 誰似你這般欣賞我 誰也說不上你一般清楚我
問我可需要甚麼"
我想我這輩子應該不會遇到一個比你對我更好的人. 對我是那麼地欣賞包容, 那麼地支持愛護, 那麼地疼愛.
如果今天將失去 眼前的一切 剩低清風兩袖 ----我相信也有你的陪伴.
唯獨你一個是不可給取替 ----誰比你更了解我?
I was talking about how the world's obsessed with the Dior plastic earrings, which is having small plastic pearl in the front and a giant big one in the back: http://teamaster.pixnet.net/blog/post/41366812
However I finally found out how to make it with genuine pearls. Have to use giant 15/16mm southsea pearls to have the contrast effect. And I've found the finding with silicone filled inside the hole, which allows the wearer to put on the earrings easily and also the earrings're strongly attached because of the strong attachment of the silicone.
The only problem is I needed to drilled the precious pearls into a 3mm hole in order to set the findings, there's a big chance ruin the pearls. Good that they all came out well.
To catch the fashion, a beauty can be genuine and natural :)
我不認識她, 但我看她的blog 有一段時間了. 由一開始的令我驚為天人: 一個弱質美人居然投資條條是道, 出書教人. 一個人獨居, 生活好有品味: 由家居裝飾到摆設, 好幽雅. 還有美人唇紅齒白, 長髪飄逸. 不就是一個活生生的才女嗎?
兩年前她在自己的blog 談到自己找到一生最愛, 男才女貌, 很快訂婚了.
最近我才再次上她的 blog 看她的文章, 結果人事全非. 她已經取消婚約, 自己出來開店舖幾個月就結業. 而且我終於認識文字和硬照之後的她: 除了有一些"痴利根", 說話沒有她文字的1/10好. 更奇怪的是她不斷送自己的影片上她的blog, 一時唱歌 一時奇奇怪怪.
我有一點不祥的感覺, 我想她應該是有depression. 因為文字之間也奇怪, 形容自己是一個女鬼.
雖然萍水相逢, 我只是一個讀者. 希望她重回以前的英勇.
我很懷疑我有一種磁性, 偶爾會吸引一些痴男怨女. 對男的我一般可以很絕情, 不是將他永久封鎖就是不理不采. 對女的一般比較容忍. 除了幾年前有個yahoo blogger 跟我熟悉之後約了一起lunch 了一次之後, 這個一再強調自己Oxford master 畢業的瘋婆子就天天打電話給我訢說好的遭遇壓力, 如跟某個blogger 的不快. 和老公相處不可以將不開心告知, 所以很想知道我為什麼可以那麼開心. 每次打電話給我可以歷時一小時, 第三之後我永久性不再聽她電話. 她後來又不停在我blog中問我為什麼可以那麼開心, 我都是少理.
去年居然給我碰上一個極品. 其實是一個認識一年多的朋友, 之前有跟她一起去大陸3天旅行, 雖然人很煩但人很細心和關心人. 她好像很喜歡参加我和朋友的活動, 我也樂於邀請她参加.
8月她有朋友結婚想買bridal set jewellery. 我在日本玩的時候她已經不停問我意見, 旅行回來我前後用了一個星期每天花1-2hrs 回答她的問題. 這些我都很樂意因為可以幫到她選擇最合適的禮物, 最後她和幾個朋友決定不和其他人買, 直接跟我買. 我打了一個大折扣之後她說希望有一個漂亮盒子因為是禮物, 沒問題, 送. 但我有直接跟她說那個盒不便宜, 因為她是朋友所以沒有關係.
她拿Bridal set 的時間叫我順便拿一些飾物給她看因為她自己想買. 惡夢從此開始:
一起late lunch 之後她挑選了兩個小時, 件件都喜歡, 試完又試到我開始不耐煩因為我趕時間参加我朋友的婚禮. 不停催促之下她選了一條頸鏈, 一條手鏈和兩對大耳環. 我再送她一對耳環, 再打折收她hk$1200. 她終於很滿足地離開了.
Q announced she's finally passed the madly in love period after 2 months of dating life. I was in shock and asked why it's so fast? It's abnormal because it usually takes 6-8 months for this period.
Her answer was neat: he doesn't give her any excitement and she's often found him boring. However she thinks he's someone she can spend the rest of life with because he's nice and takes care of her. I was speechless but agreed that she should grab this only chance to get rid of single life because we all agree that she wouldn't be able to meet anyone better.
She started to share that how she's often jokingly teasing her bf's bad look, and the bf is often defending himself saying other people admire and praised him a lot. I was once again in shock and yelled at her: you bitch!!! Don't you know beauty in the beholder's eyes? And if he told you the same thing, what would you say? And the truth is you're damn ugly girl.
She's accepted and thought a while and agreed that she shouldn't criticize the bf even a lot of times they're jokes because she never 看不起佢. I laughed out loud and started my lecture with her: such as never say bad things about the bf, give good words, always look up to him blah blah.
She seemed to have learnt (although I don't know if she's going to do it). But seriously this girl is the stupidest I've ever seen.
