makeup

autumn starts right on time this year. summer this year has been hot. on the night of last day of feb, it cools down. i like the breezy weather.

today's look uses most products from my new toys. they're still getting a lot of my attention! lol!

i tried to create smokey eyes with single color. sigma makeup eyeshadow in indian girl was used, again. i don't know why, it look greyish yesterday, today it looks taupish brownish - i'm bad with color description lol! never mind. i use whatever color i like. i rarely match my makeup with my outfit.

i quite like this color. perfect match for the season.

it was a more dramatic look than yesterday, but still subtle and soft. i noticed that the color seems more intense today too! maybe i'm using a different brush? when using this eyeshadow, the powder falls out more easily. need to tap away excess before apply <-- something i don't normally need to do.

look of the day

look of the day

a bit more dramatic than yesterday because i lined the whole of lower lashline. it makes my eyes look more awake. i didn't do the nude lip look since i was going to see a doctor (to check report) and don't want her to think i'm sick...

i like the pale look, but i think i'll wait for my pale skin to come back to use my new foundation. it's just too much work trying to make sure every skins are covered. i'm lazy and i don't have that much time for makeup.

items used

revlon photoready makeup liquid foundation in shell. i put on more moisturizer today and the face feels less tight by the end of the day.

shu uemura translucent loose powder.

silk naturals eye brow powder in dark brown.

sigma makeup eyeshadow in indan girl. i only used single color to achieve the smokey effect. it's quick.

revlon eyeshadow in unknown color - it's ivory-ish - on the browbone and inner corner of the eyes.

bourjois contour clubbing eye pencil in black party to line both upper and lower lash line.

rimmel khol eye pencil in jungle green on lower lashline. the staying power of this eye pencil sucks. it looked really nice when i left the house, but it's gone by lunch.

edm blush in pink ribbon.

l'oreal shine delice in peacon pie (discontinued). glossed with sephora gloss in bronzed beauty.

I really like this look, you look like one sexy hot model ready to do a fashion show. This is a must try for me when I have the time. Been so lazy - haven't done anything for awhile and plus my camera charger is missing.
