EOTD: Taupe & Teal

I had an itch to use my taupe colors although it's not necessary a summer hit color this year. To spice up the look, I added a hint of teal on my lower lash line. It's quite interesting, actually.

Used:

• Too Faced Shadow Insurance
• Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr in Tough as Taupe 
• NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
• About Face pigment in Crushed Metal
• Fyrinnae pigment in Koala
• Simply Naturals pigment in Teal
• Jordana Fabuliner in Black
• Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara

FOTD: Summer Brights

Summer to me is the season of color appreciation when you have a chance to wear bright colors, just because. I haven't done bold makeup in a while so this time I really had fun and be reminded how sometimes there is no limit in what you do, as long as you embrace it.

I used my trustworthy Urban Decay Deluxe Palette, that little sad palette had been collecting dust in the bottom of my drawer, untouched for almost a year (yep!) because I just simply didn't reach for it during the fall and winter months.

The colors I used are Fishnet, Ransom, Graffiti, Peace, and a bit of Zero.

 ugh so gorgeous...

- Fishnet (inner half of lid)

- Ransom (outter corner, swipe across the eye socket)

- Zero (crease ...VERY lightly ^^)

- Peace (inner tear duct)

- Graffiti (lower lash line)

Other product:

UDPP

L'oreal HiP Cream liner

Physician's Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Ultra Black mascara (say that 3x lol)

Stay tuned for what I enjoy wearing on my lips this summer :)

And speaking of fun colors, Cait of Swatch Storm is having a cool giveaway. 

I am so excited because just like her, I looooove mineral makeups, Kat Von D and indie perfume companies :) Check it out and spread the news!

Product Focus: NARS Day and Night Palette

As I promised, here is a swatch/review of the first NARS product I have ever bought. My eyeshadow palette obsession kicked in again so when I spotted this palette in my local Marshall's I was over the moon. First because it's a freaking NARS product, second of all it was because the palette was inside the alarm box ... meaning it was UNTOUCHED.

Another reason was quite obvious:

Fifteen freaking dollars, dassrite.

This palette contains 6 colors which look like they would be gorgeous for Spring time. 

1. Abyssinia: a shimmery beige
2. Sugarland: a shimmery peachy bronze
3. Fathom: a glittery light pink
4. Cleo: a pale seafoam green
5. Underworld: a deep steel blue
6. Night Breed: a black with silver glitter

The top rows are such great selection for brow bone colors, Fathom is probably the chalkiest among other 5 colors but it's not impossible to apply. I found Cleo to be quite pleasing although in the pan it can be intimidatingly light. My favorite would be Underworld (isn't it a cool name too? hehe), because it's great for liner as well as crease color.

I did a breakdown product of what I used here but this is basically how it wears on me

Thanks for reading!

Trying out Wet'n'Wild palette

Greetings earthlings,

The lack of post in this blog has turned from an issue to a habit so I don't even want to waste your time by apologizing for my negligence.

Lately I've worn so many neutrals and Wet'n'Wild Comfort Zone palette has been the one that I frequently reach for. I found the name "Comfort Zone" is suitable because you can basically go no wrong with these color selections. For this look I used:

- Green Eyelid on my eyelid & lower lash line

- Brown Crease on outer V

- Green Crease to deepen the crease

- Bone Browbone to highlight

wearing Jordana Fabuliner as well :)

It's one of those pictures that when you look at it again you think,

"Wtf was I doing?" but you have to post it anyway because you have nothing better lol 

ok I lied, this one is better but the one above shows a clearer eye look. 

Either way I was not sure of what I was doing there lmao

Anyway, thanks for reading!

FOTD: Vanity Nude

A quick out-the-door neutral look using Wet'n'Wild ColorIcon palette called "Vanity", read review here. I can't tell you enough how much I adore this drugstore gem, and if you can find it please get one and prove it yourself! :)

What I used:

* 3 - all over lid

* 1 - highlight

* 4 - inner tear duct

* 5 -outer V, lower lashline

* 6 - crease, lower lashline

 

I also popped L'oreal Black Creme liner and Milani Black eyeliner pencil underneath the lower lash line. As for face, I let my skin breathe and only used Everyday Mineral Spring concealer to cover up some problematic areas and Milani Sunset City Duo Blush/Bronzer (which is supposed to be a dupe of NARS Orgasm & Laguna Bronzer). On lips I used Bourjois 04 Sable Unique (Lovely Rogue lipstick), it's basically my perfect nude --> read the review here.
