[ alphabetical order, if anyone's wondering :) ]

Alienman
I started lurking around her blog last year after seeing her blog address on her profile. I love her sense of humour and her artwork! She writes the most amusing entries ever, and her cartoons totally brighten up my day.

Christiana
The mineral makeup queen :P She knows so much about so many brands, if you need any help with choosing between the 10000001 mineral makeup companies, she's your girl! Not only that, she can pull off just about any colour for her looks, plus she does amazingly detailed and honest product reviews.

Chi
I love her makeup style, she's unafraid to use colours but does it subtly. Her FOTD posts on ABB has definitely influenced the looks that I do :)

Nicnic
I don't know how she does it, but her posts are addictive :) Everytime she updates I have to read it right away no matter how busy I am :P She always gives such helpful replies to questions and comments too!

Petitebelle aka Audrie
Her blog touches on so many different brands besides MAC, and the reviews and swatches always raise my interest in trying them! But I also like that she posts on clothing hauls because it inspires me to spend less on makeup and more on updating my wardrobe :)

Stephie
What can I say? She pulls off just about any colour combo beautifully. Whenever I'm stuck in a rut, looking through her old fotds always gets me out of it. Definitely a big influence for me when I was a makeup noob :)

Thechas
I love her style especially when she dresses up for J-rock concerts! I'd love to see her post even more because she does such sultry smoky looks that I can't seem to achieve yet my own :S

and ....some Honourable mentions even though these people don't blog anymore (if they do, let me know please so I can go stalk them :P )

Chel (former writer on Asian Beauty Blog and Chelkitty.com)
- Another major influence from my noob days :P

Rolos (former writer on Asian Beauty Blog)
- without her, I would NEVER have given blue eyeshadow a chance. Now I just can't get away from blue...everytime I go makeup shopping I'm always attracted to the blue colours the most :P

I wish I could mention more, as it really is quite hard trying to narrow down people to thank. At least everyday, I read something that inspires me, or I receive a comment that makes bloggging seem worthwhile. Picking a few seems so unfair :( Sooooo keep in mind I love all of you readers :) Without you there would be no reason for me to blog. And if I don't blog, I'd be bored out of my mind :P But seriously, I'm so touched sometimes by the people that leave me kind words on my rants, it really does make me feel a lot less alone. Whether you're a fellow blogger or reader, I'm glad to have known each one of you, and I sincerely thank you all :)
