here's a link to my first trial with her:

A few hours ago, me, my mom and my dad went to Ms. Chichi’s house and had my first ever trial. I was a bit anxious cause I am definitely not a makeup person. I’ll be the first to admit that I absolutely know zilch about eyeshadow and lipstick and foundation, etc. my so called makeup kit only holds a pressed powder, a Nivea lip balm, a toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste. hahahaha. :)
anyway, I had a fabulous time. :) Chichi and Stef (her hairstylist) were sooo nice. for a non-makeup person like me, I actually had a great time. sharing a few of my trial pictures:

AFTER
I loved it, my mom loved it, best of all, my hubby to be loved it. :) he has given me the go signal to book Chichi. yey! :) another one down. :)
I'll be having my first ever trial hair and make up tomorrow and I am utterly scared to bits. Okay fine, I'm also excited. Butterflies in my tummy. But still my nerves seem to twitch endlessly. I just dont know what to expect, I guess. What if I looked like a drag queen or worse what if I looked like an espasol? Eeeek.
Well it's not like I'm entrusting myself with an amateur. This lady, yup lady, has been in the business for 17 years and is currently a makeup artist for Laura Mercier. She is one of the well liked in w@w and I must say one of the nicest I have ever communicated with. I have no doubts with her artistic prowess.
It's just that, let's face it, it really doesnt matter how good your make up artist is, if her style and the products that she's using does not suit you, it would probably be a disaster and that's what scares me. I'm definitely not a make up person (hello, can't you tell) and I know absolutely zilch about this stuff. Thus when asked I dont know what I want or what makes me look good.
sigh. the things a bride has to deal with.
