What I used:

• Loreal Hip Bright shadow duo in Adventurous (used light brown) for lids

• M.A.C. woodwinked for crease blended towards brow bone (also used for inner corner and inner lower lashline

• in2it long wearing eye colour in Khaki blended with Lancome Colour Focus in Dill for outer V and hollows of eyes

• Green e/s from coastal scents 88 palette for lower lashline (middle) and MAC embark for outer lower lashline
  

• in2it gel eyeliner

• Fanny Serrano Brow Powder and MAC Girl Boy
  

• MAC Plushlash Mascara

Shades doubling as headband, I hate waiting for
hair to grow out. My hairs starting to look ridiculous blech

Green and Yellow EOTD

After a million years...an update. Sorry ive been MIA for such a long time. Been pretty busy the last few days. Anyway, as promised here is an updated version of MY VERY FIRST EOTD

My lovely Model: Caby

It took me quite a while to redo this, I tried to do it on myself and used Coastal Scents. But after one year, I realized that im not too happy with Coastal Scents Eye Shadows. They faded before I got out of my room, so needless to say I just removed the makeup and didnt post it.


A few weeks ago, I was over at Caby's and she asked me to do her makeup. I thought it would be perfect to try and recreate the look again this time using MAC Chrome Yellow, Eye popping, Carbon and a few of the green e/s from her 180 palette and this is what I came up with!

VS.

A lot better, yeah? hehe I hope you think so too! lol

Finals/Portfolio: Colored Makeup

If there's one thing that I love most about makeup, its mixing colors! I like combining colors that are rarely used. If I had the time to do my makeup everyday, id definitely go for colored, but that isnt the case so I stick with neutrals most of the time hehe.

The first look I did for our Artistic Makeup Class finals was the colored makeup. I knew I wanted an eye popping color, so I used chrome yellow and went on from there. I used orange, purple and blue. Pretty weird if you think about it, but I think it turned out pretty well. This is probably my favorite, also because I wasnt stressed YET. haha

The challenge for this look for our finals, was to make the eyes pop or stand out by using only colored eyeliner. I know my eyes look icky before I put on some eyeliner. But my model, Miel's eye were beautiful and well defined even without eyeliner!

I met Miel the very first time when she came over to help me out with my finals. I found her through Fetz when she posted her shoot a few months ago. I really liked her look and decided to ask (no harm in asking) I was thrilled when she said yes, she came in at 7:3o-8:00 when one of my models cancelled last minute! Life saver! I originally planned on doing a semi smokey on Miel, but I think this turned out better! =)


Still waiting to be graded for our finals, and I tell you its nerve wracking. I just want to get it over with, so I can stop obsessing with the pictures haha. As Ive mentioned, I was quite disapointed with how I performed for the finals. So I kinda just want to move on and forget about it haha but until I get my final grades, I will continue looking for flaws and errors LOL


What I used:
Cinema Secrets Ultimate Foundation in kit #3
RCMA Invisible Setting Powder
A bit of FS Chino Face powder
Coastal Scents Highlight and Contour Palette and Blush Palette
Urban Decay Primer Potion
MAC Chrome Yellow, Amber lights, Nocturnelle
Coastal Scents Orange, Purple, Blue
Mixing Medium for eyeliner (+Blue CS e/s)
A bunch of lipstick mixed together

Its an odd color combination, I know hehe. Needed to come up with a look based on the Chicago Bears (its blue and orange) and I tried mixing both colors just to make it a bit different

Twerkout

Transferring pictures from my blackberry was a breeze. Until I installed the Desktop Manager. Now I have to run that Roxio Media Manager which bugs me to no end. It hangs about 10 times before I get the pictures I want. hassle. It used to take me less than 5 minutes. And noooowww about an hour or so. It is testing my patience!!

Anyone know how I can make Blackberry Media Sync work again without having to uninstall the Desktop Manager? or how I can get my computer to recognize the sd card and just get the pictures straight from my computer? (sighs)


I said I was going to do so many things today. But I got stuck at home for most of the day. Caby and other friends came over to pick me up and we hung out in BF.

Green eotd


I never know how to smile, so heres a funny face for you! haha

*Quick updated review about the Coastal Scents Eyeshadow:

(You can read my original review about the Coastal Scents Palettes and some of the brushes over HERE.)

I havent had the chance to really test them out. Yes I swatched them and they're pigmented. Im more on the "dark side" lol so its a tad more difficult to make the colors pop. I use UD Primer Potion as a base and normally I pack on the eyshadow to make it more vibrant. I just noticed that this doesnt work with Coastal Scents. If you pack on the color, it wont stick and will eventually end up as fall out :/ and it would go back to the semi faded color. I think it would be best to use a similar colored base (green eyeshadow base for green eyeshadow). Oh wells.

Coastal Scents -Green and Black

This was the first look I made when I got my palettes from CS. I obviously went a little crazy with the colors out of excitement and used 5 shades of green. This actually looks a lot like the previous post except that the creases are more defined, I used black on the outer corners, and used a yellow green shadow on the inner corners.


Things I used:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Loew Cornell Mop Brushes 3/8, 1/2 and 1/4
MAC 219 Brush
Angled eyeshadow/ crease Blender from 2007 Kirland set
Loew Cornell angled liner brush
Loreal HIP eye liner in black
Rimmel Glam Eyes Mascara (which is fairly decent; not as bad as Maybellines Colossal Mascara)

I was on skype talking to Phil. haha. Thats why he is awesome, my ladidas dont bore him as much as it would other guys.

Coastal Scents - Green and Yellow

Ive had the CS Palettes for about a week now but I havent played with most of the colors. Simply because im usually just at home and have nowhere to go. So today, I decided i'd do something a little bit colorful (dont even ask where we went haha I just wanted to play with my new toys)

And yes, im using green again. I dont know, im a little fascinated with the color green. Next week i'll try purple. Anyway here it is. I think it looks reggae-ish. Sorry about the quality of the pictures, bad lighting.








Of course I used Urban Decays Primer Potion. I was alittle dissapointed with the yellow shadow in the mate palette. I got the color to pop by packing it over and over again, but after a while it would kind of fade. Oh well, at least I can go and get chrome yellow knowing that I can wear a yellow shadow. Another thing that I noticed, the shadows had more fallout than the M.A.C. shadows. But I still love my CS palettes!
