to the lovely ladies who reads my blog and those leaving comments:
i really appreciate it. have a blissful and blessed day! :D
i was really bored at home and decided to come with my parents to makati. i left them at the manila pavilion and proceeded to the mall.i can't wait for makeup masala's stock for their lipsticks and glossesover the summer, thus, i got three ever bilena matte lipsticks. i love these lippies. why? Firstly, they are really cheap (125.00 pesos only), they do not dry my lips but applying gloss is a must because these are really MATTE, the shades are really pretty!! super!! :D
i also got chifure bi-cake in medium ocre because i ran out of powder foundation and my flat top brush was broken (i could not use mmu).
i have not tested this yet. i love the compact!! it's really sleek and most especially the shades suits me!!yey!! i also got elf duo eyeshadow cream in black licorice and olive. the colors are really nice and they are really creamy and pigmented. great for e/s base.
it was a boring Sunday morning so i decided to play with makeup.
Smoky midnight purple EOTD
1.) Prime lids (careline eyestick in platinum)
2.) Apply metallic blue e/s on the lid. (i use my favorite lancome e/s quad, this is just a sample but i really love it. this is very handy. it never leaves my makeup kit.)
3.) Apply purple shadow base on the crease towards the outer V.
4.) Sweep over violet e/s on the crease and outer v. (i use covergirl e/s quad in ice princess)
5.) Apply gold shimmery e/s above the violet e/s.
6.) Highlight brow bone with matte beige e/s Line the upper lashline with black eyeliner and on the lower lashline top apply violet e/s or eyeliner then top it off with black eyeliner.
camwhoring time : @_@
^^sporting a distorted look.. :p i was thinking of dying my hair.. it looks so black. i wonder if ash brown or other shade of brown would suit ME.. :S
The Face Shop Span Oil Control Pre Make - up price: 445.00 pesos
"Formulated with sebum absorbing powder and pore smoothing elastic polymer, this makeup primer minimizes shine while enhancing the staying power of your foundation."
my very first make up primer. :D i have never thought of using a primer because i thought people with dry skin can do away with it. errr,, wrong notion. it's just recently that i felt that the weather seemed to melt my foundation quickly. i was really choosing between monistat or the skin perfecting primer of bare naturals but i hated the hassles of ordering online. so, i decided to give this one a try after reading good feedback from girltalk. Tried this today when i went to my sorority's meeting and got our class text booklet (i am the president of the class :S). It is gel type. The scent is very similar to maxipeel's tinted moisturizer (it smells good but i am not fond of the scent) it made my powder stayed longer and i look fresh even after 2 hrs, however, i could not attest if it controls oilies well. it also made my skin look smoother.
^the color of the primer is not actually transparent/clear. it is opaque in color.
btw, i was a bit confused about its price. in girltalk, they said that it was around 375 pesos only then the sa told me it was 595!?! i was astounded and asked the cashier to check the real price which is 445 pesos. ohh i just find it weird.
i got my grades for legal medicine - 86% and epa (election law and public administration) - 93%.. P.S. Thank you LORD.. :D
i was about to order at the famous makeup masala!!(finally)
however the words OUT OF STOCK were plastered on the screen!!! gawd...
SIGH!! :c
Some of the nyx round lipsticks and glosses are also out of stock!! and the ones that are not available are the shades i want!! ohh well.. i will just wait for the stocks.. i am just excited to order.. hehe :D
Joining contests is so much fun. I have the chance to create looks that i would not normally do or thought of doing. E/s application is new to me.. i am in the process of learning so bare with my pictures and the looks i will create. :D
As emily dickinson says, "there is a little madness in spring." It is the season of the year where there is fusion of colors. thus, i created an exuberant look using green, yellow and orange.
