Essentials: All I Need for a Great Night Out

And this is all that I take with me. (I don't bring nail polish but I'm always wearing it... that's the same, no?)

Bigass earrings are a must, everybody. Make sure you use earring backs...I've lost many a big earring when I'm hollering and waving around and one of them flies right out of my ear and into the Great Unknown.

Eyes: must-have base for the best super sparkly eyeshadow, Giorgio Armani's Eyes to Kill in 9 Rock Sand! Normally this eyeshadow needs no primer because it sets and stays but when you're moving around and putting all sorts of toxins into your body... you can never be too safe. And my two beloved eyeliners from Stila and K-Palette helps define my eyes and make them pop. I keep them taped to my body.

Face: Aside from normal foundation, I always bring concealer. I am a sad victim of the ubiquitous Asian Flush, so I like to touch up every now and then. MUFE's concealer stays even through the sweat and heat.

Nails: Jewel tone polish always looks amazing in pictures

Lips: Balm + YSL Glossy Stain is the winning combo. The balm (Lip Smackers ftw!) moisturizes and the stain ensures that your lips will look pigmented and glossy even after many drinks.

Voila-this is my trusted arsenal and it's never let me down! Holiday season is almost upon us so have fun and enjoy!!
