SUMMER SUNSET




Summer is about to end so ive decide to make a look which uses colors from the sunset which are yellow, orange, red, and purple :) 



So here's the palette I used to make this look: 




For the eyes

*First I used the yellow colored eyeshadow on the inner corner of my eyes, spreading them until the middle part of my eyes. 

*Next i used the orange colored shadow which I placed on the middle portion of my eyes. i always blend blend blend the colors to make it look better. 

*I used a pink-red color of shadow on the crease of my eyes blending them until the end of my eyes. remember to not use too much red it makes the eyes look weird or looks bleeding. 

*Then I used a puple colored shadow on the outer most corner of my eye and blend it inwards. remember the secret to great eyeshadows is by blending all colors properly. 

*lastly i used the purple shadow to line my lower lash line making it look like a purple eyeliner to emphasize the look. 




so here it is....

Blue Nymph look by Too Faced



Hiiii! its been a while since my last blog due to a lot of school works. :| 

So today I came across my Too Faced Enchanted Glamour set and tired on a Fairy like look like a Blue Nymph.haha ill show what i used and steps on how i created the look/

WHAT I USED: 


 So heres the set... i blog this a few months ago. so now im actually showing how well it'll work as shadows. 

 STEPS: 





**Before anything else dont forget to put a shadow primer. its the secret to a long lasting vibrant shadow!


1. Start of using a Turquoise shadow spreading it towards the crease on my eyes. 

2. use a darker shade like dark blue and blend it on the outer corner of the eye. this technique will make the eyes pop. the secret to a great eyeshadow is the blending. just blend blend blend. 

3. highlight the brow bone with a lighter shade to give a "wide eye look". 



4. I used false lashes to improve the look i want to achieve. 

5. Used a frosted pale pink lipstick to give more emphasis on my eyes rather than my lips. 

Additional info : *adding black liner on top of the lash line will also make the eyes bigger 
                         * I also added a little blue liner on my bottom lash line.

So here it is  :

Over The Rainbow

when boredom hits... 


* I pretty much messed up on the BLACK dots? i was suppose to draw something like loepard prints but i screwed up :|




Since I love colorful stuffs i decided to make something like this :) 


What I used : 

 NYX Carribean Shadow Palette
MAC Browgel in Beguile
MAC pro longwear lipcream in Overtime
Benefits Sugarbomb blush
Shu uemura eye liner pen
Dior Show Mascara 


Use a yellow shadow and apply it on the inner corner of the eyes, followed by a green shadow, blue and purple working your way on the outer corner of the eyes. 
Then BLEND to even out the color and make it appear like a rainbow. 
*add some false lashes too.

Close up look


I was not satisfied with the plain colorful eyes so i decided to use my Black liner pen to draw something on the outer corner of my eye. I didn't really like how it looked after. :| here it is...
