(2009) Brides of year 2009

[jennyd]

Hi girls,
I just bought 20 ampoules online and I was wondering, any one of you would like some? it's after I bought them that I realised I kinda went overboard (the exhilaration of buying).

Here's the list of what I have:

Available: 2 vials each
Type:
1) 24 Hours Moisturizing Ampoule.

- Hydrating

- For all skin types

2) Brightening Ampoule.
Functions:
- Improve circulation

3) Ess C (Vitamin C) Ampoule

5) Oil-Control Ampoule.

Usually on AD, the MUA will ask if you want ampoule cos it allows the makeup to last longer. I don't know about the charges now, but I heard it was $30 per vial. I got the ampoules online for just $1.80/vial, so it's quite a substantial saving. I plan to use for my photoshoot also (which is next Monday!), so I'll let you gals know if it really works.

 

[its_fate]

Most of us will be having our PS soon. Can share share pics??

 

[its_fate]

Jenny -

U bought so much!! But by looking at the price, it's a great different.
For my Indoor PS yesterday, my MUA charge me $20. U can really save alot

 

[jennyd]

Iris - I know!!! After I confirmed my purchases, I was like... erm... a bit too many for one person to use right?! But I have a friend who's getting married end of this month, so I'll pass one to her. Really save quite a bit.

One question, do you all give ang pao to your MUA, or planning to give?

 

[lalaa_27]

[irritant]

hey lalaa...that's great news!!! but u gonna be in it with the top down? hahaha...be careful of ur hairdo...

 

[its_fate]

I didn't give during PS. I only gave on my ROM and will be giving 1 to her on my AD

[mashi_mashi]

[jocelyn4012]

ixoral and pOOh,
Thanks for all the advices!!
Appreciate it!

 

[fifteenmay]

lalaa, thats a real pretty car!`

 

[dzxz]

Hi Jocelyn, hope my advise not too late..ke ke

No worry..normally can choose your gown in a day...I super fickle minded and manage to choose it on one day...My PS on June and choose my Gown on March...I wanted early cos they told me they having new gown during that month so I quickly choose lo...my final fitting is 2 weeks before PS...in fact they told me to go for final fitting 1 day before PS but too bad I busy so make it 2 weeks before lo....

dont worry too much ya....

 

[jennyd]

mashi - true. but i figured they are earning from the BS, and also from our ang pao, so I can save on the ampoule. i'm even planning to bring my fake lashes just in case i dun like the kinds she has. maybe i'm cheapo lah. lol!

iris & mashi both, thanks for the advise on the ang pao. i was wondering whether PS need to give or not. 'cos afterall PS photographer is different from AD photographer.

 

[ete]

jennyd - so which type does MUA use? are you going to bring one of each type? I then realize the groom needs ampoule too... hmmm what's the purpose huh?

 

[mashi_mashi]

jennyd,
angpow nt much de. so they dun earn much.
but come bk to tink. hw much ur MUA can earn fr ur BS. tink in house de get basic pay ba. then those freelance de. only get certain amount only ba. as they tie to the BS. keke...

i tink tink, let them earn. also save my trouble lar. need to bring this n tat. haha... PS alot of things to bring liao... tink MUA fake eyelashes got diff type. i like my MUA put on me de. keke... nt irritating lor.

haha... but my PS i save on my ampoule n fake eyelashes as i change my trial make up to tat. so no $$ given. juz my HTB use her ampoule need to pay only. so still ok...

PS PG will b earnin commission fr the photos u choose. if i nt wrong. lol. so no need to give de. haha... anyway PS is cover by ur BS, n nt ur AD. so no need. haha...

 

[its_fate]

Jenny - Where got cheapo??!! It's make your $$ worthwhile

.. Oso, the ampoule used by the MUA may not suit your skin type causing out-break. Use something that suits U

Oh,, as for the PG during PS, I don't think need to give Ang Pao. But will provide meal/drink for him during OD PS

 

[jennyd]

ete, i think the MUA uses the oil-control one. 'cos the makeup will melt due to the oil on our faces.
i will be using from now until my photoshoot, and a few days before the AD so my face can maintain the moisture and maybe be brighter? dunno lah, just hope only.

yes, groom will need the ampoule also. i plan to give my hubby the brightening ampoule.
we just went facial the other day (his first time) and the facialist said his face very clean, nothing to squeeze. so jealous! lol!
so i'll just give him a vial of that.

dependent on whether my pimple goes down (am frantically putting medicine on it every morning and night) i will either use the brightening (if no pimple) or the oil control (if pimple still there).

 

[mashi_mashi]

ete,
purpose of ampoule is to let the make up last longer. keke... tats the basic lar.

iris,
actually no need to treat them meal. as u be having ur meal in the indoor after ur indoor PS before u move out as ur MUA will need to touch up on u before tat. keke.. if u go out eat, later nobody to touch up for u...

tink ur PG also wun wan u to treat. keke.. for my PG, as we happen to know him quite well, we buy him his favourite drink when we go PS. keke.

 

[lalaa_27]

hehe thanx thanx!
haha aroh.. dat was my worry too.. i asked the woman if it got a top cos worried my veil will fly away or sumthg! she said got a manual top dat we can pull over if we need it.. n got plastic by the sides dat we can manually pull down if it rains.. so not so bad la.. wen nearin church & dinner venue will put the top down

 

[irritant]

eva wun wan to sit in the car i booked unless i put the top up...lucky mine is auto...hahaha...she dun wan her hair messy...

 

[ete]

jennyd - wow u are using it intensively! hmmm ur face must be very smooth & bright after that! Okay guess i just have to let her earn our ampoule $... I will bring my fake lashes too but MUA told me she will use it only if the lashes suit me.
Does MUA provide hair accessories like old french veil or gloves?

 

[its_fate]

My OD PS is tmr, separate day

Mashi - Ya, agree with U nobody will help me do touch-up after my meal. So will eat super full.. If that's the case, juz buy drink for my PG.. wahahahahah...

Jenny - My hubby's face super oily. Even my MUA commented when she help him do styling.. Will get my MUA apply ampoule on him

 

[mashi_mashi]

ete,
MUA will provide accessories. like veil, earrings, hair accessories. but gloves i dun tink so lor.

but true tat their hair accessories is very nice. i like my MUA give me wear de, keke. but i no wear tiara lor. haha...

iris,
oh. gd. hope gd weather for u tomolo.... then can take pretty pics... keke...

u also cannot eat too full. later can c tummy. haha.. eat moderate can liao. haha... remember to bring water for ur PS. also straw. if nt u difficult to drink water outdoor, haha...

 

[felifeli]

hi gals, sorry i mia 4 long... the gold price now is 48.5

 

[jennyd]

Iris, bring lots of tissue paper and wet tissue. If it's hot, with the wet tissue it will cool both u and hubby down.

And just in case not able to eat, bring energy drink/milo packs, etc. Hahahaha... I'll be bringing isotonic drink in a cooler, with lots of ice! Both hubby & I very scared of heat and will become grumpy if whether's too hot, so have to be prepared.

These few days I have been dumping accessories into a bag - for hair, necklace, earrings, rings, even a small tiara! Everything that I have which I think might be used, I also dump inside. Who knows I might use it? Lol... talk about kiasu!

 

[mashi_mashi]

felicia,
ya lor. wat happen to u? keke...
oh. is it raising or dropping like tat.
haha..

jennyd,
actually no need to worry on ur accessories. ur MUA will select those suitable for u de. in her own range. i c their range, wan to faintz. so many types, haha...

 

[ete]

haha jennyd u r so funny but i think i'll do that too!

btw dont drink water aft 9pm if you're going for BS soon... else water retention

 

[felifeli]

mashi, sorry i was busy with my work & study ... now drop ... i wen to buy already... the gold price... will nt drop too much... its btw 51+++ to 48+++

the shop i go buy ... without workman fees without gst... shi dian jing...

 

[jennyd]

ete: yah lor, i'm like super kiasu right? hahaha... but better to be prepared than not. otherwise hubby have to keep running around to buy drinks also very poor thing.

i read about not drinking water after 9pm also... but i dun think i can do it. can't live without water lah! i drink a glass before i sleep every nite.

mashi: yah, i know MUA will have accessories, but i have a few rings and necklaces which i want to include in my PS. very impt to me.

 

[mashi_mashi]

felicia,

depends the place u go. haha. i go the places basically nt much places selling water de. haha... tink we also no time to drink water til we get bk to the car. haha

 

[jennyd]

mashi,
yah, i'll only wear if they match but i'll still be bringing them along. i'm pretty sure some can be used.
