Fall 2010 Dark eyes & bold lips vs. Dark eyes & glowing cheeks

Dark eyes & bold lips vs. Dark eyes & glowing cheeks

Fall 2010

    vs. 


Inspiration

Diane Von Furstenburg's 2010 Fall Runway Makeup trend of a woman " changing, evolving like a butterfly." He "layered lids and undereyes with a black cream shadow, and gave the inner corners a little sparkle" and the result "is multidimensional eye makeup that looks a little different from each angle."

My trial

I've adapted this look to be softer for this upcoming Fall season, something more "wearable" for my personal taste, with some color into the inner corner. I've always added glowing cheeks with a bronzer and highlighter and , semi nude matte lips with touch of "bronzey" eyeshadow.

*Whenever I practice with makeup, I don't often create the same look for both of my eyes. It's usually 1 look for 1 eye, another look for the other, or another version of it with something different. (Just in case you wonder why I look so strange nor uniform)

___________________________________________________________________

I've been wanting to use products(eyeshaodows) from Beyoumakeupshop Victoria Secret Bare Bronze Palette "Heat Mirage" (currently available for $8.99) & Bourjois Pastel Matt eyeshadow in "Blu Suprenant 80" (currently available for $7.50) to showcase how they can be used and their quality.



I just love these 2!

Review: Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner   in  Blackest Black  is very creamy and super gentle when applied to the lids, not to mention the brush is definitely a great add in as well. I remember when I first bought the L'oreal Hip Gel Eyeliner, the tiny brush that came with it was super stiff and horrible, but this brush is more flexible and it can be use to fling your winged eyeliners and such.  Would I repurchase this product again?  Yes, I really want to   eggplant .  In terms of staying power, I have really oily lids, so when I had this on the other day, it lasted a lot longer than I thought (although I don't remember how many hours, definitely not 24 though because I could tell part of the liner was fading).  I'm sure if you apply an eye primer base or your concealer, it would last a very long time.    I took this picture right after I bought the product because I was so excited to try it since it had ...

5 Wet n Wild lipstick swatches, why customers' reviews are important to a business, WIN free eyeshadow!

 Practicing makes perfect, repetition with practice is even better I had told myself I'd dedicate an hour every day to practicing makeup applications but the past couple of weeks have been so busy for me that I haven't been able to- but then whenever I do practice, I always try the same groups of colors on the eyes and same techniques. My goal is next time I practice, I will have a YouTube video on and practice along with the guru as well. You assume once you watch something, you can replicate the same colors and techniques after- but not I. I do not want Beyoumakeupshop's customers nor my friends, or people I know to think I am always about promoting our own products. I really do try to find different ways to use the products, research on the products and reviews, and I do try to test on myself prior to adding them. I have not tested nor use everything in the Shop, but hopefully over time I will be able to. Why customers' reviews are important to a business I bel...

I'm grateful for work =)

The weather has been sooo cold here in Northern California, much colder than last year =(  I don't think I can ever imagine myself living anywhere but the warm states, unless its New York and there's no need to drive with the subway/cabs. Ay, with the 30 for 30 challenge, I have been so uncreative, but now that I'm starting to work, I'll be more out of the box of my typical self and practice wearing different makeup at the same time.  I'm so grateful because I finally found a part time job and after the first day of work (yesterday), I was so tired and end up sick. From now on, I will make sure to keep myself warm and wear tons of layers of clothing because it is so easy to get sick in this type of weather. One of most dislike situations is being sick- it just makes you feel helpless and weak. I'm gong to make sure I work extra hard and always do my best because I'm so grateful to have found it. How do people work full time, go to school, and still raise...
