"It's every girls' dream to be on the cover of a magazine.."
The Clinique Star Tour is finally here!! I've been waiting for this since forever ago. Made a date with Camie to go to their Pavilion stop yesterday. Behold the Star Tour Truck! A 3-tonne truck custom fabricated to house 8 make up and hair stations, a mini studio with a photographer and a convenient Clinique counter. Makes me feel like I'm on location for a shoot. *wow*
We were the earliest there at 1030am. It was only supposed to start at 11am. That's how excited we were. While waiting we checked out the Clinique Star Tour lounge equipped with on-site laptops where we viewed the pics of the contestants from yesterday's Sunway Pyramid location. They're so young! *did i just give away my age again.. lol*
Yup there's a truck in there somewhere

At about 1115am with a few more young hopefuls around we registered and bought the Star Tour voucher priced at RM30. Both Camie & I opted for the "Young & Chic" look. By this time the weather didn't really help, it got really cloudy and started to drizzle.

Look at the clouds at 11am
Those Clinique brollies were rather pretty,
should've ran off with one.. lol
We didn't have to wait very long, 10 minutes later we were whisked away to the Star Tour truck for our skincare consultation & prepping. Nicole who attended to me was really helpful in recommending products that were suitable for my acne prone combination skin.

Then it was make up time! Yay! David Ooi, Clinique's trainer came over to find out what type of look and colours I was looking for. We decided on strong eyes and natural lips with a hint of colour on the cheeks. Mable's work on my eyes was beautiful. I had strong teal coloured eyes! Would never have done it myself, coz it would have gone terribly wrong. *imagine bruised eyes* Mable also shared with me some tips on applying eye make up. Very helpful, but I still need to practice more. :(

Next - hair by Salon Esprit. Since I came with curls, I decided to keep it that way. So they just emphasised it a bit more. 15 minutes later, a head full of curls. *lurvin it!*

After that my number was called to wait in line for the photoshoot session. Then all I heard was, "Put your hand here. Sit on the chair. Lean forward a bit. Look down. Smile." America's Next Top Model anyone? Sure felt like it. Each participant got about 9 shots each. Then choose 1 to upload for the contest and you also get to bring home a printed copy. How cool is that!

Thanx Camie for taking these! :)
Quite a lot people by the time I was done
I didn't really feel like leaving the truck yet, it was just ridiculously fun. But I had to make room for other participants. Off to collect my goodie bag and found myself being asked to hang around to be interviewed about my experience. Gladly did, coz I had loads of fun!
