Too Faced Naked Eye Palette: The Fashion Look

Here I am, with the next instalment of Too Faced Naked Eye (Soft & Sexy Eye Shadow Collection) LOTD series - The Fashion Look. Hmm... I should really do a colorful look next...

To rock The Fashion Look, one must have Pink Cheeks and do a Lap Dance wearing Stiletto.

"Jokes" aside, I followed the step-by-step instruction card accordingly (as usual).

  • Sweep Pink Cheeks from crease to brow.
  • Blend Lap Dance into crease and onto lid.
  • Apply Stiletto to upper lash line and extend outward, then blend into lower lashline.

 

I really like all the colors used for this look, especially Lap Dance (a pretty shimmery taupe with a hint of purple). To line and define the eyes, I apply Stiletto (a soft matte black) using a pencil brush. Shu Uemura Hard Formula Eyebrow Pencil Hard 9 Brown 03 as usual, for soft-looking brows. Sana Gafixx Matsuge Gatch-ly Mascara to amp up my lashes.

MAC Viva Glam Cyndi Lipstick is a soft rosy red on me, which I absolutely adore. I like the lustre finish, which the color intensity can be build up according to one's preference. Love how it brightens up the whole look effortlessly.

As for my face, I use Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Gel Foundation 51 Light Vanilla & set with L'egere Mineral Makeup Finishing Powder. I kinda like the combi result, a nice dewy finish. I barely notice any flaws on me... all covered up! On my cheeks, is a light swirl of Jill Stuart Mix Blush Compact 10 Sweet Biscuit.

Okay, that's all. Thanks for looking! (:

LOTD: Icy Glamour

My LOTD for the Kanebo Freshel Bloggers' Event.

For this LOTD, I'd used only the eyeshadows from the Majolica Majorca Midnight Dresser Palette #11 Glamorous Makeup Dresser (Ltd Ed X'mas 2009). Had gotten this during the Shiseido Sale last year for $5 (?). I wasn't impressed with the cardboard packaging and definitely would not wanna pay full price for it. I do appreciate that the ltd ed collection palettes (in future) will have better sturdier packaging. The shimmery silver and charcoal grey e/s colors are rather sheer and they crease on me (as shown above). FYI, I didn't use any primer prior e/s application.

Eyes:

  • Majolica Majorca Customize Sword Cut BR771 - DEFINE BROWS
  • Majolica Majorca Midnight Dresser Palette #11 Glamorous Makeup Dresser (Ltd Ed X'mas 2009) - EYE COLOR
  • Lunasol Nature Color Eyes 04 Nature Beige - FOR HIGHLIGHT
  • Make Up For Ever Mini Black Eyeliner (Ltd Ed Aqua Eyes Collection Set) - DEFINE EYES
  • Kiss Me Heroine Make Volume & Curl Mascara - VOLUMIZE LASHES

 

Face:

  • Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation No.51 Light Vanilla - EVEN COMPLEXION
  • Tony & Tina Herbal Environmental Protector Pressed Powder (Translucent) - SET FOUNDATION
  • Illamasqua Blush (Kiss) - SCULPT CHEEKS

Random: Mood-Swing......

As the title suggest, it's gonna be a random post. Super. Random.

Today, I woke up feeling really moody. Prolly the time-of-the-month symptoms are showing? Hmm..

I'm not good at pretending to be happy. My emotions are shown on my face. I'm pretty straight-forward. A little bit over though. If I don't like you, my face will show everything. Vice versa.

I'm having a bad skin day. Pores. Fine lines. Pimple. Blackheads. Whiteheads. Milia seeds. Pigmentation. Oiliness. Dehydration. ETC.

Whatever you can think of. Really.

See my dry lips.

See the annoying pimple?! I accidentally 'burst' it. It's damn painful :/

AND, see the fine lines on my forehead...... *speechless*

Age is catching up......

My super moody face.

I seldom take up-close photo of my right eye.

Hooded eye that is.

Bad skin day sucks totally!

What's on my face:

  • Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation No.51 Light Vanilla
  • Tony & Tina Herbal Environmental Protector Pressed Powder (Translucent)
  • MAC MSF By Candlelight
  • Lunasol Nature Color Eyes 04 Nature Beige
  • Stage Kohl Pencil 01 Karma Khol
  • Majolica Majorca Customize Sword Cut BR771
  • KATE Eyebrow Color LB-1
  • Korea Love Star Professional Make-Up Mascara

 

On a happier note, I'll be changing my hair color tmr! Technically speaking is today since now is past midnight. Will be having vibrant red head most probably  At least something worth being happy ^^ Jones, Chantana and Chantana's sis will be coloring their hair too! Okay done with my moody post. Ciaos~

LOTD: Code Red

And, the focus of this LOTD is my pimp-ed lashes of coz (as shown in the super close-up photo).

Notice the red bits? Well, the red was not super obvious kind coz I layered red mascara over Dolly Wink Volume Mascara.

I'm pretty sure that the red will be super obvious over Majolica Majorca Lash Bone White Fiber.

You must be wondering what red mascara I'm talking about, yes? I didn't get it when it was launched last year. I only got it this year and I just knew I had to get my hands on it. Btw it's limited edition, maybe that explains why?

Ta Dah!~ Majolica Majorca Lash Gorgeous Wing Neo Red Mascara RD600 (Limited Edition).

 

A lil' review for now:

Red is definitely a unique color and not as widely-used as black or brown of coz. It is not easy to find a red mascara IMO. Correct me if I'm wrong. I was bent on getting this MJ mascara and the only place which still had stock was NAC Watsons. I bought it at full price, no discount whatsoever coz it's limited edition. There was about 2 or 3 left (can't remember) after I got mine. I love how the red makes my eyes 'POP'; more 'awake' somehow. My lashes do look kinda spidery due to the mascara fibers. BUT that doesn't really bother me much, since no one will stand THAT close enough to see that. The mascara fibers did add some length to my lashes and I ain't complaining :p Easy to remove as well, with cleansing oil of coz! I'll layer this on top of MJ Lash Bone White Fiber next time to see the RED effect. ♥x♥

Ignore my oily face; no thanks to the time-of-the-month. 

Photos speak a thousand words. Pretty self-explanatory? Till then.

LOTD: Sunset glow

eyes:

  • bourjois effet lumiere eyeshadow trio orange divin 52: it's my 1st time using orange color so much on my eye makeup simply because i don't fancy orange color lol hmm.. decided to try out this eyeshadow trio and i'm loving how it actually brings out a cheerful glow to my entire look.

 

  • nature republic prism star sparkling eyeshadow SYL303 (gold): i've been using alot of this recently. it's great as a overall eye highlighter without being overly shimmery. alternatively, it can be used to highlight just the browbone area.

 

  • stila face luminizer - sun highlighter: this can really multi-task. here, i used this on the middle lid area so the overall look won't be so boring imo :p

 

  • too faced shadow insurance: i used this to prep the eye area to help the eye makeup stay longer without creasing. i prefer this to the etude house one.

 

  • kate powder gel liner N BR-1: i like that it's quick drying and it stays on & on without smudging ! it's easy to draw as well with the given liner brush.

 

  • etude house eye glow pencil 2: i used it at the lower lashline so that my eyes will appear larger than usual.

 

  • Nature Republic Prism Star Sparkling Eye Shadow in SYL303: i simply love this ! will definitely repurchase if i don't feel like trying out other new brow products :p

 

  • lancĂ´me amplicils waterproof 02 brun: i love lancome mascaras. so far, i've not encountered any major problems with 'em except that their prices are on the higher end -,- this mascara can hold curls well. there's no clumping at all ! great in volumizing my lashes.

 


face:

  • skin79 absolute total bb cream spf37 pa+++: it's very easy to blend with medium coverage, so i safely skip the concealer. the overall look is a slight dewy finish. i love the fact that it helps in brightening my complexion pretty well and i don't need to apply sunblock prior to this.

 

  • sephora matifying powder foundation light 20 (d20 warm nude): nuff' said about this LOL *review*

 

  • mac peachykeen blush: to many, it's quite comparable to nars orgasm. umm i don't own nars orgasm so no comments lol this is a beautiful peachy coral color. the shimmery finish is just right and this color compliments my skin tone perfectly.
