Thought of writing a list-to-buy things for myself and ended up here.
Everytime after I bought some beauty supplies (and they were expensive), I'll probably tell myself, Nah I won't have to spend that kind of money again next month or anytime soon.. and guess what.. I WAS WRONG. wrong wrong wrong big time. There will forever be a lot of things to buy on the 'list' and all needed asap in a short timeframe. No wonder my piggy bank is never even close to quarter full. Ugh.
There's never a budget to stay within when you're selecting the supplies. You're lying to yourself when you try to cover all your beauty supplies and stay within A budget. I mean we're talking bout hair, skin, nails and makeup! The entire spectrum of supplies that suit OUR bloody needs.
*sobs*
Let's make a list, working from top down.
It's my list. some babes might even have WAY longer list.
Not that I need to buy ALL of 'em now cos I already had some, I'll just bold those that I need to STOCK-UP "soon".

I don't style them everyday. Just let loose and look healthy.
- Shampoo, conditioner (both wash off and leave on), smoothing serum, hair roots serum, repair treatment, hair mask, hair spa, hairspray and hair-wax.
- Barrettes, elastics, bobby-pins, shark pins, 3 types of brush/combs, hairbands.. and fortunately I need not to get straightening thong yet.. but I might.

Wow, I'm declaring myself broke and I hope I did not miss out any.
I am kinda pissed after listing all these things down.
I'm not petty girl BUT these are just BASIC needs. B-A-S-I-C!!
And have not even list down on clothes, shoes and bags.
Sheeesh..
We love dressing up but to spend on getting all dressed up stay-young-n-healthy-self-hygiene-thingy is kinda pain-in-d-ass.
