Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual (My First Makeup Book!)

Yesterday, I became the happiest girlfriend on earth! :)

I once again went and visited National Bookstore together with my boyfriend, Mike, to spy on a book that I have been dying to get hold of for weeks already. This book is the Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual (For Everyone from Beginner to Pro). I have been reading a lot of positive feedback on the Internet about this book so I thought I should get one if I really wanted to learn more about this industry.

As you all know, I am an aspiring makeup artist. This started when I decided to become one of the Philippines' Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultants, which happened three months ago. Being one, we were trained to groom ourselves in such a way that potential clients will be convinced that despite of the products being a little bit pricey, they are worth buying for. Of course by doing so, we get to try on the products first before we do skin care classes and let other people go and try on them. Guess what? I fell in love with Mary Kay for reasons like it boosted my self-confidence I never thought I had and made me realize that being beautiful somehow needs an investment. Because of this, I developed a habit that until now, I find it difficult to get rid of and nobody can blame me. Why? Because I happen to be a girl and I have the right to be beautiful, my own way. :)

So yesterday, I tried to check on the book again and to my disappointment, it was no longer on the display track, where I usually see it around whenever I go there. There was another Bobbi Brown book but it was not what I wanted. We searched everywhere. I told myself, there has to be another copy left. Suddenly, I remembered the previous visit I had that aside from the one in the display track inside the store, there was one being displayed behind the front glass and beside the luggage counter. So we decided to take a look and there I saw one copy, still all covered with plastic. Satisfyingly relieved seeing it, I diverted myself back to reality, hoping that the next time I go back, it would still be there. Now, wondering what my boyfriend was up to, I saw him still standing there and to my surprise, I saw the book in his arms! I shot him a why-do-you-have-the-book-with-you look and right then and there, he told me he was going to get it for me! I was like, "whaaaaaaaaaaaatt?? For real?" He nodded and I, on the other hand, jumped like a kid. Yaaaaay! End of story. Hahaha! :D


So.. This is the book that my boyfriend surprisingly bought for me yesterday. I have not started reading it yet but I will have to, probably after blogging this. By the way, I will be sending off a review on this one right after I finish off reading it. That's a promise. :)

HAPPY ME!!! :)))

Meet the BOYFRIEND! Thanks, b! ♥
