humid weather & dry skin

I know there are a lot of beauty gurus and females out there who have the heart of an entrepreneur, therefore,  I think INC is super useful.  I subscribe to their newsletters and I get a lot of really useful and interesting articles, not to mention lessons on leadership, marketing, sales, etc.. =) I highly recommend this site! Try it and let me know if it's useful for you =)


During my visit to Wisconsin a couple months ago, I used my Rimmel's Fix & Perfect Primer, liquid eyeliner, some blush, and a darker red lipstick with hair tied in a bun. I recently realize that my skin does better and has less zits in places that are more humid. This is strange since my skin was very oily- but now it is rather dry, even before Fall approache!

If your skin has recently become more dry due to increase in temperature as October is ending, try what I've been doing for this past week- use olive oil.  I just put some on my face and leave it over night because my other moisturizers haven't done a good enough job.

I do not know if its the olive oil nor the increase in my intake of water, the new Face Shop Acne face wash I've been using, or the new Face Shop Post Acne treatment- or maybe the weather- or all these combine, but my skin seems to better, especially under the eyes and the cheeks. My pores are not as visible and it has been more smooth.  I still have my acne spots that I am working on, do you know of any products for acne marks?


 I usually never really dress up nor put much makeup for school- but I was so excited to try out my new mascara (click here to visit my previous post on it) It definitely gave me volume, but you have to give it 2 or more coats, the 1st coat may not do it. 

Midterms will be coming up soon and I will be studying  a lot more because I like my classes and the materials I'm learning, especially my Excel class!  If you haven't learn Excel, you should start taking a class for it because it is so fun, really.  It is sort of like a magical crystal ball that can forsee the future, but of numbers, calculations, percentages, or even savings rate.

I will stay focus!
Have a wonderful night -)

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...
