Haha 😀. But yes, it is essential. Otherwise, you end up blaming the products for a lousy application.

Quite true! I never thought of that. I used to have a nice set of brush by chance and I gave it away to my friend who really knew how to get the most out of them brushes.

Have a nice day! My lovely artist!

You have to get a new one and I can teach you how to use them 🤪 Do you remember the brand name?

Same for you wish you all the best. 😬

Oh! It’s very kind of you! I couldn’t remember the brand name of that set of very nice brush as it was a long time ago.
I got the set at a safe in a nice shop in Knightsbridge in London, perhaps it’s Molton Brown?! My friend wanted to take a make-up course but it was too expensive.

So, we went around town buying all the nice sets of make—ups on sale! We ended up with a small suitcase size to pack all the boxes before returning home. That’s why I gave my set as a parting gift. The secret was that my friend was a gay whose parents could not accept this fact of life. So, we had to do make-up in secret! I haven’t seen my friend several years now as we went into different line of jobs. That’s the good memory and good old days while we were at college overseas.

I always wonder what my friend has done with that suitcase full of cosmetic and make-up boxes!!

Thanks so much for your kind offer. You remind me of my friend and our good old days!

sorry for the late reply @kaminchan that's sad as I always think that people might know different brands as the beauty market is crazy and you can't keep up with all the brands haha 😂I looked up Molton Brown but it seems like a shampoo, candle kind of shop?

I would love to get that suitcase, I can imagine that there was a lot of amazing makeup stuff inside 😊

So, I guess it's now time for you to visit your friend!😊 I can imagine that back then it was kind of difficult to get accepted if you were gay or lesbian 😞whereas nowadays I would say it's a better as it's common and people talk more about it in public. 🌈

Thank you very much for your kind comment!
I am afraid I was a bit occupied this past weekend as I had to traveled up to the north-east of the country. It was a very hot and busy weekend in the garden! So much work to catch up! I guess I will never finish the work as there are new branches to trim very often!

My friend has become very successful and quite rich so I was not sure about approaching him after several years. Our status is very different and he is a high ranking government employee. Most of my school friends who became ‘important’ have changed.

In the old days,Molton Brown used to have a cosmetic section and most wonderful shades for eye-shadows, lipsticks and foundation powder,even the best sun block!! But their business was not able to compete with newer brands! I guess it has given up its cosmetic side! I still keep the old boxes for souvenir!

I am very grateful to your kind attention and generosity. If you happen to drop by in Bangkok, you should drop me a line! I’ll be happy to be your local guide!

All the best!

@kaminchan
Do you travel a lot or was this just the one time? 😊
So, you're a garden person, grow your veggies and fruits or more like flowers? 😊

Is this common in your culture that if you have a ''better'' position, the people are changing in a way that you won't reach them anymore?

Well, the Molton Brown products now look very classic and chic so their makeup must have been gorgeous! Sad, that they don't have a cosmetic line anymore...

Thank you! I'll let you know when I'm around. 😄
