Hi guys.. This picture may not be the most photogenic and enticing makeup look that I ever did but I wore this look for like five straight days and everyone was just asking me how I did it and if I am the one who did my makeup (errr.. who else???). This is a very easy and simple everyday makeup look. I can do this look for like 10 minutes or even less.
My skin looks so dry in the pictures... waahhh In real person, I swear this eye makeup looks so nice . It gives me that posh, neat and elegant look without looking too much. You can change the eyeshadows but I chose taupe since it defines my eyes more than the usual brown. Choose a matte shadow for the crease area and highlight with a shimmery (not too much...) highlighter and it will create a beautiful gradient and texture on your lid.
Some tips for a quick everyday makeup:
1.You can save time by creating a base color with your own foundation. Apply your concealer or primer over your lid and set it with powder or powder foundation.
2.The problem with most Asian women is that when they apply eyeshadows on their crease, it tends to disappear once they open their eyes. The reason being is that Asians do not have that deep socket in their eyes compared to Caucasians. I always watch Sam and Nic (PIXIWOO in Youtube) and I get frustrated because copying their looks takes more time since I have to deepen, darken and create the illusion of deep set eyes.
3. Skip the flick or winged eyeliner (when you go to the office,you have a formal event that requires a more professional look in school.. uhmm you get what I mean.. :D). Come on ladies!! Your boss will not compliment you and say, "OMG, you are so kawaii!!!"haha Well, perhaps in your dreams he/she will. :p In the office, if you'll meet a client or have a formal school presentation or reporting.. You do not sport the Tsubasa makeup!!Hello? It took me years to let go of the winged eyeliner craze. I know it looks so good but then there are times that I just had to grab a q-tip and erase that flick because it looks so unnatural and attention grabbing too. If you are in high school or in college, the winged eyeliner looks so cool. Let us get real here, ladies. We must dress appropriately and look (makeup wise) appropriately too.

4. Find products that saves you time in makeup application. As for me, I can use my Nichido Pencil Eyeliner to line my waterline, line my upper lid and tightline my eyes. Also, I can use my ELF matte bronzer as an eyeshadow too. :D
My whole look. Uhmm.. excuse my weird grin.. :p
Here is the tutorial.. Enjoy.. Do not forget to subscribe!!
Btw, my cam says it can record in HD but in Youtube it does not show that it is in HD.. I cannot figure it out.. Hmmm.. Anways, I just finished watching the movie, "The Vow." Hmmm.. I am not a love story movie lover.. I am more of the end of the world/apocalypse/alien invasion/action packed movie addict. I do not get the story behind the amnesia thing in love story but two of my favorite movies of all time follow the same trend. :D
Have you watched this?
A Moment to Remember
My mom and I cried a river when we watched this. This is better than the Notebook. I also love that movie!! Ohhh do not be deceived by the trailer of the movie, Chronicle. haha I hope you get what I mean. I watched that last week eh. I want to watch Daniel in The Woman in Black!! Hopefully, I could watch that this Sunday.. :D
Hi guys!! Here is quick and easy purple smokey eyes makeup tutorial. I played with colors because I miss doing tutorials with playful shades. I have been stuck with the neutral craze. :D Doing smokey eyes is the easiest because you just pack on eyeshadows on your lid and blend away (and creating a neutral eye makeup look was the hardest... haha).
I love HBC lashes. I went to HBC the other day and these lashes were out of stock. :C I need to hoard when they have stocks again. For 20 pesos, these are the best lashes out there. Just try getting the black ones because they look more natural than the super brown ones.
My head looks like an alien's! haha I just had to post this picture because I look meek and mild. LOL Contouring at its finest because my face looks so small. Ohh the wonders of my makeup. No surgery needed and saves you a lot of money. :D

I made a video for this and it is in Youtube!! Yep in youtube! My ultimate mistake, I did not know that I can convert my videos to WMV file and maintaining it in HD!! Fail! I am such a dumbbell. IKR!
Here is the video tutorial:
Enjoy!!
Btw, I finally have a job!! I love the view from my room but I cannot look down from the 30th bldg. I am super afraid of heights!! Yay!! Thank you Lord for this blessing. :D
Hi guys!! I was inspired to do this look because Valentine's day is just around the corner. I was thinking of doing a prom makeup tutorial or date makeup tutorial but I wanted a sultry and elegant look that could be worn on a date or even at prom night ( I do not like the usual smokey eyes). So, I opted for a coral and burgundy blend of shadows. Of course, the lashes made it look glamorous!!
Here are a few photos of the eye makeup:
I made a video tutorial for this one. Here is the link:
It may seem that I misspelled the word glamorous in the beginning. I am too lazy to edit it again and it will take me hours to upload it. In my defense, Glamourous is also correct because it is the British Version while Glamorous is English Version. (pwede... haha)
Wahhh!! My BF asked,, did you place it in youtube? I said HELL NO! I am too shy (charing!!). I am sorry for the change of lighting and the poor lighting too. The light was just too much for my eyes that I had to change the position of the light. What do you think? I am such an amateur with video tutorials. :D
This is what you call - I want a more prominent chin smile.Ughhh! I do not have a decent full face picture of the entire look. :S But an FOTD will never be complete without my face plastered on my post, right? :D
