My Natural-Daily Makeup with Maybelline..

hi everyone..

well like most of you, i love AFFORDABLE makeup.. and one of my fave is Maybelline's.. it has so many makeup range from base, eyes, cheeks, even cleanser.. for prize? y'all know it's very affordable, even for students..

i use Maybelline since high school and although it was so loonggggg ago and i'm quite "matured" now ( i declined to say old, bare with me.. ), i still use most if their products for my everyday makeup.. because it's lightweight and not clogging my pores..

so, here they are...

1. Base : Maybeline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation..

 this foundation is so perfect for people with oily skin (like me).. it melt easily, easy to blend and the "aqua" thingy gave you the comfort effect.. well you should try it to get what i mean..

the lightweight formula and medium coverage made it so perfect for young chicas out there who just started to learn to use makeup or even for the expert ones.. just blend with your cleaned fingers and you'll get the perfect base..

this product has many shades, i only got this two..

SWATCHES

no flash

"sand" matches my skintone perfectly, and i use "true beige" sometimes for more tanned look..

blended

see the sand kinda pink-ish and true beige more of darker yellow-ish shade..

2. POWDER : Maybeline Clear Smooth Powder in LIGHT..

aww man, this baby don't lie.. it really really gives you the smooth matte finish.. honestly, i just bought this powder recently (urgent matters) and i fell in love right away.. see how it almost finished less than a month.. ^_^

this is great for touch up as well..

3. BLUSH : Maybelline Clear Smooth Blush in Fresh Berry..

 

look how gorgeous the pink color is.. it fulfilled my needs for DOLLY LOOK!! watch out Korean Girls.. i'm gonna kick some ass with this blush.. ^_^

SWATCHES

cuteness!!

this blush is very pigmented and kinda powdery as well.. so you need to use it gently.. put on your blush brush, tap the excess (so it won't fall on your cheeks) then lightly brush 'em on your cheek bone.. easy breezy!

 

and.... last but not least, how i use my Maybellines..

before

foundation as the base first then set everything with powder..

apply blush to spice up your face.. less PALE, more GLAM!

add a tiny cat eye liners and lipbalm..

VOILA!!

 

 flash

ok so that's my everyday simple look.. maybe less on the cheeks.. i exaggerate a little coz i want it to POP on camera.. but be careful with the blush, it's VERY VERY pigmented.. use it lightly then build up the color, OK!!

Affordable and Great products.. what's not to love~!!

ps : i also love their mascaras.. review NEXT!!

Etude House PROOF 10 Eye Primer

hi everyone..

today's story is about this awesome eyeshadow primer i've been use recently.. Proof 10 Eye Primer by Etude..

put it all over your eyes (upper and lower part as well)..

extreme smokey look (my fave)..

this picture taken at 11 am..

11 hours-ish later!!

you see, the colors were still the same.. just a teeny tiny crease coz of my oily lid.. well, i have a very oily face and eyelid, but if you have normal skin, i think you shadows will last forever!!

see the little crease on the lid? well this happened about 11 hours later.. so i think it's forgivable.. ^_^

NICE!!

so far, this is my GO TO eyeshadow primer.. wear it all the time.. for natural look, dark smokey look.. it's amazing.. made your eyeshadow lasts very long time and made the color go out more vibrant..

what's not to love?!

Real Techniques Stippling Brush & Blush Brush

hellowww again!!

i'm so excited today coz i could try my newly arrived brush.. (actually it came few days ago, but i just got a chance to use it now..) thanks to Marcelle who already allured me into buying them..

these brushes are made from taklon bristles, so it's synthetic..

maybe there are some of you who never heard of a word Taklon before ( like me..).. so here's the quick faqs about taklon that i got from wikipedia..

1. Taklon is polyester fiber that is extruded and tapered to a fine point..

2. Taklon was originally designed to mimic the handling characteristics of natural sable..

3. Taklon brushes are more hygenic than real hair brushes. Natural hair has an irregular surface which traps powders, dead skin cells, bacteria and chemicals. So,  regular cleaning with disinfectants is required to prevent skin irritation. Taklon lacks these surface irregularities, making it easier to clean properly. This decreases irritation. (well that's a very GOOD news isn't it.. LOL!)

4. Taklon is synthetic, so animal cruelty is not an issue.. (sigh!)



so here's my new babies..

The Stippling Brush

this stippling brush promised the airbrushed and high definition results .. i've tried it and it worked out as promised.. but i don't think it worked well with liquid foundation.. the result's kinda streaky so i need to use my fingers to blend 'em all together.. 

 it actually worked awesome with cream products.. i'll show you how i used it on the next post.. really2 picture perfect result.. yeayy to that!!

The Blush Brush

you can't even imagine how soft this blush brush is.. i'd just die in peace.. i'm not exaggerating.. this' like the softest ever!!!!

what's unique about this brushes are you can let it stand on the table.. it'll come in handy when you're working with more than 1 brush.. believe me!! sometimes when you put your brushes lie flat on the table (in hurry), sometimes they rolled and fell to the ground.. ahh the unsanitary!! :( 

so, with real technique's brushes we can kiss that annoyance good bye..... love lovee loveeee!!

look pixel perfect even in harsh light 

(i'll prove it)

ACE OF BASE.... I miss them... A lot..!!

the sign

i wanna share to you.. one of my favorite band of all time.... ACE OF BASE..

the band was interesting because of the "dance" themed songs and twins sister as the vocalists... i used to like the blond girl more because she have this gorgeous green eyes.. sooo mysterious and unique.. the blond one's Lynn, and the brunette's Jenny.. ;)

never gonna say i'm sorry

 lucky love

i love all of their albums but my favorite one is the 3rd.. well because i love each and every song in that album.. simple!!

1st time i saw their video was on the mid 90's i guess.. the "All That She Wants".. and it was just like love at the 1st sight.. then i just threw all my "kindergarten" songs, and started dance all the way.. LOL!!

actually, back then my mom kinda concern because of my weird sense of music.. well. she's right.. i grew up weird.. but, creatively weird.. so it's a good thing anyway..

life is a flower

as years goes by, i think their last album was "Da Capo".. why i called 'em last while actually Ace Of Base still exist till very today?? mmm well.. because, sadly.. they replaced the twin chics with another "younger" girl.. and all of sudden all of their unique-ness and interesting factors pfffff GONE..!!! where's my chicas??? I WANT THEM BACK... pleaseeee... :'(

i am actually kinda teary by now.. missing old times.. just using my school uniform.. got home from school and just turn on TV just to find their v klip on air then shake my ass.. LOL!!

beautiful morning

ohh nooo.. they started getting old.. the 1st time i saw this v clip, my heart kinda pounding.. ohh noo.. haha.. the guys actually looked more and more younger.. what's wrong girls??

unspeakable

and if you noticed.. in the last 2 videos (actually their last album's), Lynn wasn't sing any lyrics.. not even do back vocals.. i don't know, but in the last two videos, she was just only smiling through the camera and Jenny do all the singing.. that was weird because in old times, they kinda balanced all the vocal arrangements even Lynn was more noticeable back then.. another WHY?! from me..

all i know that, this' the band i'd never gonna see LIVE.. SOBBED!!!! :'(

i don't know why i wrote this blog all of the sudden.. but i surely miss them '"all".. the way they used to be.. i even became more fanatic by refused to buy their latest album with the new girls.. mmm...

it's not wide i know.. i should give 'em a chance.. i'll let you know the result..

miss you jenny and lynn,.. wherever you are..



xoxo
