May is a busy and exciting month for me. I get to celebrate Mother’s Day with my mom, attend events and workshops, and more. Below are some of the things I plan on doing this month!
Mother’s Day Gift
It’s always hard to find a good Mother’s Day gift for my mom. For this year, I am going to take her out for a Mother’s Day brunch at the Six Seven seafood restaurant in the Edgewater hotel, by the Seattle Waterfront. I also got her some flowers and new facial masks, including the new Lancôme Advanced Génifique Hydrogel Melting Sheet Mask.
I heard that this facial mask is full of hydrating serums and it will make skin looks radiant and improve the appearance of fine lines. I can’t wait to see the result of this facial mask on my mom.
New Eyeshadows
Pat McGrath is one of my favorite makeup artists. I really like her makeup products, especially the Mothership eyeshadows and the glitter lip beauty products. Recently she launched new eyeshadow pallets for Spring, including the Mothership Subversive La Vie en Rose pallet. This eyeshadow pallet has six shades; the colors include gold, purple and bright pink. The La Vie en Rose eyeshadow pallet is perfect for Spring and Summer.
New Gel Nail Design
For the month of May, I want to change my gel nail color from red to hot pink. (For some reason, the hot pink color seems suitable for the season.) Back in January, I had hot pink gel nails with Swarovski crystals and silver glitters partially covered each nail. This time, I chose the same hot pink gel nail color, and my nail artist arranged the Swarovski crystals differently than last time and used multi-color glitters to fully covered each nail (instead of partially in January).
Fashion Show
In May, the Metropolitan Fashion Week organization is hosting a fashion show at the Seattle Art Museum. Unlike most fashion shows that focus mainly on the current fashion trends and styles, the Metropolitan Fashion Week shows focus more on the costume design. (Each year, the Metropolitan Fashion Week hosts its shows in three cities: Hollywood, Las Vegas, and Seattle.) This year will be my first time attending the Metropolitan Fashion Week, and I am looking forward to the fashion show and the after party!
Painting Workshop
A friend of mine owns a wine tasting room, Great Wine. She’s hosting a ukelele painting workshop this month with wine tasting. I’ve done some wine and painting on regular canvas, but I’ve never drawn on an musical instrument before. I am looking forward to the exciting event!
