Natural Looking Eye Make up


So, I finally found a way to take a better picture! Well, at least for me! Thank heavens for smart phones with cameras that you can rotate so you can take pictures of yourself! Here is a picture of my eye opened with a minimal color of eyeshadow. I used only nude colors like this palette I got from Yves Rocher. It's a mini palette that consists of 3 colors---brown (for the crease), peach(eyelid) and the highlighter which is a bit satin in super light peach.

Details at the back in French and English:
11-BEIGE NUDE-MATTE TRI-TONE-Luminous colors , structured look---with smoothing rice powder (wow even in eyeshadows)
*this would really look good on those with oily eyelids because of the rice powder which helps eliminate shine.

The palette comes out really handy, maybe 2 inches by 1 and a half. For me, it looks good enough for the price and affordable. I got it like around 400pesos .I'm not so sure though. The finish was so light but be sure to put on eye primer or eye base for extra hold that would last you whole day. I won't recommend that you dampen your brush.I suggest that you layer =) It's pigmented in a natural sense. I love it because it's light and it looks so natural.

My eyes are deep-set so I think it's quite easy to apply eyeshadow. But the thing you should never forget with having this kind of eye shape is how we shouldnt exaggerate the colors and darken in every way. I like my eyes just the way it is but I want it to pop naturally. So here is what I did:

   I got the mid tone color which is the PEACH and brush it into my eyelids blending it towards my crease.Second, I got the darkest shade which is the BROWN and by using a medium crease brush,I applied the color just to my crease concentrating on just the outer crease.BLEND WELL like a car wiper all the way to the inner corner.Lastly, I got a medium eyeshadow brush and swiped the HIGHLIGHTER to my brow bone, to the center of the eyelid and last to highlight would be to the inner corner of my eye near my tear duct.

So here's how it looks like:


Then if you want a natural looking eyebrows, one trick that I've learned is by doing this:

 I dip my spooly brush to an eyeshadow color that would match or just the same color as my hair then brush and blend it gently to my eyebrows.
 
BRUSH and BLEND

I applied the eyeliner and mascara last.


YOU do it!=)

New powder foundation discovery!

I have been searching for my new powder foundation as Kate Tokyo discontinued my fave😞(see the black case) Sorry for the ugly dirty case as it was stuck inside my drawer for a long time.Anyway, a friend told me about SilkyGirl make up! She told me it's really making her look flawless! Which I think it is! I bought my own powder foundation at Robinson's Galleria and oh,wow, my friend was right! I don't even need to use concealer. I know some people prefer to use liquid but I tend to use matte powder foundation because it gives me that polish and clean look.  I chose the cute Magic BB Oil-Control Pure Fresh Powder All-In-One because I don't have to use any concealer.  Comes in a small cute plastic case that fits perfectly in my palm. It has SPF 45 which says:  Shine-free Matte finish Long wearing Fragrance-free Formulated for Asia Skin I got the number  01- Fair because of the yellowish and light tone. Will post pics when my skin adjusted to my natural color... I'm s...

It's been a long time...

 Oh my, it's been a long time since I have last posted something about work... and I think it has been a year already to be exact!  Anyway, I won't make any promises but I will really try my very best to post works more often and perhaps share more about what ladies often want to learn more. Even the men can join too.  And to share some more today, I almost gave up being a make up artist! Probably one of the reasons why is because, most people nowadays are becoming more and more of a critic and doesn't know what real art is. I had a lot of experiences, really bad ones, that I almost lost myself but I just prayed to God. Then, it happened...I still get blessings from Him. They just kept pouring in. I couldn't even believe it myself but I always thought God was the one who is telling me to slow down. To enjoy. To do my best.  Now, I'm grateful.This is me, still working and surviving....  after 13 years. Thank you God. I am grateful.

New packaging! New formulation?

This is again an update of the pressed powder I'm using! I just couldn't believe why I switched from a luxurious brand I was using before into this! I mean, it's nothing negative as this is still an Asian brand as it says "Made in Thailand" . This is actually good. The pressed powder is medium coverage for me like a foundation and I like that it covers my imperfections without using any concealer. Even my dark undereyes were magically covered!  I will post the before and after pics soon😊 Anyway, the new packaging is very handy and cute with a mirror inside! However, the scent is kind of "off" for me.I can't quite place it. The old version doesn't have that smell and is actually quite "unscented" (I have to do the  sniffing again once more just to be sure). I tried the powder again this time and I think it's just like before! My face looks flawless and blends into my skin after a few minutes! It's just the smell that's bothe...
