Hello my lovely reader!
…….I am getting tons of requests daily by my blog’s loyal readers for makeup related tutorials,…some are requesting to make YouTube videos….. Some of you are sending personal messages about my whereabout and asking me why I am so inactive on my blog recently.
Yes, I confess (and apologize)…. I have been quite inactive in posting makeup related tutorials or looks lately. It’s not because I am getting tired of blogging or lacking motivation… If you follow my blog regularly, then you know that I got married last December. Maintaining my jobs, planning the wedding & the occasion itself, and also maintaining my blog “Sifa’s Corner” was pretty hectic!
Recently I am focused in settling & adjusting with my new life…..a new part, away from the familiar faces & places.
I have moved home this month and now living in USA with my husband. Life here is really interesting & functioning …but leaving the place you have called “home” for the major part of your life and live in some other geographic location is hard.
Don’t assume that I have abandoned my blog! I have big plans for Sifa’s Corner and if God willing, you are going to see some positive changes soon… umm…..as soon as I unpack & get settled up! Haha..
So wish me luck and accept my gratitude for being a part of my blog!
Here are some snaps from my journey…Dhaka->Chicago->Fargo

Now comes the shopping part…..I had the opportunity to visit the Woodfield Mall, the largest shopping center in Chicago. And as you are assuming, I stopped by their M.A.C and Sephora outlet.
The people living in Bangladesh knows the dilemma of shopping luxurious makeup & skin care items. We have to wait for a long time and pay ridiculous amount of money to get a product from USA or UK. So here is my makeup & skincare haul from Chicago.
