In this post, I'll be featuring my LOTD (The Day Look) using Too Faced Naked Eye (Soft & Sexy Eye Shadow Collection).

I followed the step-by-step instruction card provided.

• Sweep In The Buff from lashes to brow.
• Press Pillow Talk onto the eyelid.
• Blend Like A Virgin into the crease and outer lashline.

 

On my face, I applied my favorite-of-the-moment Skin79 Vital Orange BB Cream (a review coming real soon!). It pretty much covers up my flaws. There isn't any need for a separate concealer unless I want a really full coverage. This coverage is more than enough for me (:

For soft-looking brows, I used Shu Uemura Hard Formula Eyebrow Pencil Hard 9 Brown 03. For natural-looking lashes, I first applied Etude House Oh~ m'Eye Lash Mascara Base (Petticoat) then 1 coat of Covergirl Professional Remarkable Washable Waterproof Mascara (Very Black).

I used K-Palette Real Lasting 24h Eyeliner in Deep Brown (♥ this color!) to line my upper lashline, extending the line slightly at the end. For my lower lashline, I used Essence Longlasting Eye Pencil 01 BLACK FEVER.

I lightly dust my HG Maybelline Dream Matte Powder in Sand Medium 0-1 only on the T-zone area. For some color on my cheeks, I used my favorite Lavshuca Blush PK-1.

*Note: Products highlighted are provided by beauty company for review purpose.

The finished look is very neutral, I like :D No regrets on getting the Too Faced Naked Eye Palette!

That will be all. Thanks for looking!

aquadisiac, the very 1st l'oreal chrome intensity palette i got my hands on. now, i'm still short of pink mania to complete the collection. should i ? i've been deciding for the longest time -,- i must say the colors are so very intense that my friend actually asked if i was going for some wedding dinner or party *faints* usually what you see on the pictures are kind of 'washed out' colors. in real life, the colors are seriously pigmented. you have to try to know.

 

my overall look without lip makeup. i prefer to take pictures in the toilet since the lighting there is the best (the rest really sucks :/).

on the very day i had this look on, i went far east plaza to buy some lashes. i bought at enamour, the shop best known for pushy sales girls :/ it is located at level 4 by the way. this girl who served me & my friend keep up-selling from head (hair products) to toe (foot mask). we came out $50 poorer each :/ 15 pairs of lashes, 1 black lash liner glue & double-lid stickers set.

here's my 1st look with lip makeup on. i'm using the giveaway prize i won from hazel, covergirl outlast lipstain - everbloom kiss.

what i like about this lipstain is that it is easy to draw on lips. it leaves a slight tint on lips, good enough to brighten up my whole look. it doesn't dry my lips and i love the accompanying lil' sweet scent. overall, i find it very cute to use as the packaging is just like a typical pink highlighter :D

hmm, i find the lashes natural since the length is not that long. they are slightly longer than my own mascara-ed lashes. however, the color of lashes are quite obvious. very natural lashes are usually quite fine and the color is not obvious.

by the way, the sales girl helped me put on the eyelashes. do note that once they let you TRY the lashes, simply means you must BUY the lashes. so, think twice.

oh, the very helpful girl also helped me put on the double eyelid stickers. yes, once tried considered sold.

you can see the double eyelid sticker from upclose.

this one very obvious -,-

the lashes look kind of glossy black right.

right side look.

left side look.

notice a slight change ? my lip makeup is more towards nude pink. you just have to apply a tiny bit of concealer on your stained lips.

the overall look is more sweet & demure kind.

i prefer this look more since the eye makeup is already kind of heavy somehow. the previous look is more suitable for going clubbing, wedding dinners, etc.

which look you prefer ?

what makeup products i used ?

eyes:

• too faced shadow insurance
  
• sana new born lasting w brow LB3
  
• etude house eye glow pencil 2

• biore uv perfect face milk
  
• sephora oil free mattifying foundation light 20
• mac well dressed blusher

 

lips:

this is a simple neutral look with a twist. i lined my bottom lashline with a lime green eyeliner to "freshen" up the look.

• daier eye palette (ta zhiang)
• majolica majorca brow customize sword cut

what if the world is black & white ?

SAD T_T that'll be boring much. no colorful makeups. i'm so random hahas.

june is the hottest month of the year, yes ? well, singapore is a all-time summer island.. so we practically get sun-kissed every other day. i don't really like the sun, seriously. i tanned very easily that's why. oh, wanted to show you lovelies my "sun-kissed" LOTD without having to go under the scorching hot sun to achieve this look.

here is the faceshop bb cream i used. i bought this online from my all-time favourite korean makeup store, koreabb. anyway, i'm not paid to introduce this online store to y'all. how i wish i was.. :p hahas kidding. this is one of the expensive bb creams i bought i think. $37.91 after vip discount. yes, i spent that much to become vip (or maybe not that much ? $140 1st one-time purchase) btw it's oos now but no worries, you can always preorder.

Flebeaute White Crystal BB Cream SPF 35PA++, 35ml

Dual formula of  brightening serum and lifting complexion enhancer for youthful, even-toned skin.

Potent skin brightening serum with White Pine, Nopal & SepiWhite brightens and lightens skin tone while lifting complexion enhancer with Saffron, Niacinamide and Gingko lifts and firms. A blend of 7 organic herbs and naturally sourced moisture grabbing high polymer retain moisture for a boost of energy and lucid glow.

(source: www.koreabb.com.sg)

as seen from the picture, this bb cream is clearly more suitable for ladies with fairer complexions (think chantana & purplio). this is kind of fair on me but i'll make it work for me somehow lol. i like the faint floral smell though :p

this is swatches of the sana new born lasting w brow LB3 i recently bought from sasa. above is the brush-tip side, while bottom is the pencil lead side. however, i feel that it's not light enough for my eyebrows.

i still need to use shu uemura eyebrow manicure 02 tawny gold to lighten my eyebrows. finally, a swatch of how this shade looks like.

maybelline perfect concealer 01 & stage picture perfect liquid camouflage 03 pixie doll. PERFECT C: used both as the maybelline one is abit fair for me.

shu uemura face powder matte (shimmery), stila sun highlighter & palgantong makeup theatrical powder.

oh, i used the stila sun highlighter as eyeshadow as well. it's that pigmented.

a more close-up picture (:

no eyeliners & mascara used as yet.

i like this eye palette, seriously. go get this from ta zhiang ! i've used the white, beige & brown so far & it's really pigmented without even using eye primer !

for mascara wise, i used covergirl lash blast. very black right ? i like :p

i used my favourite stage broadway brown eyeliner & kiss me heroine make smooth liquid eyeliner !

i think if you were to use fake lashes, the effect will be better ? (:

mac instant chic to finish up the look ! nude lips is a must ! there is nothing on my lips as seen as these pictures were taken after i reach home.

last two camwhore pictures to round up this entry !

do you like to be sun-kissed ? heez~ :p

june, the typical s'porean fav mth since it's the yearly gss affair.. everywhere sales.. actually then again there are sales every now & then.. be it small or big.. anyways, shopping is s'porean fav hobby hahas xD hmm this applies to me pretty much since i'm a typical s'porean lady heez~ & i'm proud to be one :3 well, i simply can't stop shopping.. i see i like i buy(provided my wallet ok :x) some buys take me a long time to tink.. some no need to tink.. are u the same as me ? and, most of the times, we buy things knowing dat we already have similar ones.. or things dat we dont need or live without.. we buy things we want, not need or should.. it's a different matter altogether (: but then again, if we truly feel happy abt our buys.. y not ?

umm.. it's gonna be a pretty long post.. pics-intensive for sure.. part of my buys for june alone.. can be scary to some.. but actually, i dint spend really alot.. not my one month's pay for sure.. it's the gss period remember ? and, dat doesnt mean i'll stop hauling after june :x

as above is the haul i've gotten.. not all for myself la :p i've gotten myself dhc blotting lotion & dhc acne whitening gel. now grab 'em at only $50 for 3 for the former & $80 for 3 for the latter.. dhc seldom have discount.. so yups ;) the rest are my lil sista's..

and, these r the samples i managed to get from the dhc rep.. frankly speaking, dhc reps standard r damn horrible.. as compared to fancl's.. 1 of the rep's skin was sooo bad.. i mean reali veryveryvery extremely bad kind.. patchy skin with too-white foundation.. acne scars r literally all over the face +_+ jus bcoz i had a breakout on my chin. she told me i could use dhc acne spot gel to clear the acne.. i told her i bought it already(which i reali did & like it pretty much).. i looked at her & was indeed not convinced that the products she recommend me r gd if i was new to dhc =,= anyways, she kinda ignore me & i jus proceeded on with looking at the dhc products.. another lady serve me.. at least her skin is average though on the matured side.. yea, she was the one who gave me the samples.. i love the salicylic acne wash & face milk samples as i've since used up 2 of them each.. with the help of them & the acne spot gel, my acne is cleared, finally ! it's damn annoying coz it's too bloody big & there's no way i could conceal it =,= i shall buy them when they r on sale :x hahas !

i bought majolica majorca jewel eyes BL711, one of the 3 for $50 buys.. this retails for $27.50 usually.. if u prefer pigmented shades, this is not for u (:

kate metallic color gel liner i bought at m'sia sasa.. for $37ringgit.. gold shade i likeee !

two random buys frm ta zhiang, a shop selling rhomlon makeup, hair accessories, etc.. the colors look reali lovely, yes ? the 1st palette shades r highly pigmented i would say.. $4.90 for 8 colors.. u do the math hahas ! there r other palettes too.. will grab 'em if i like these two.. as for the 2nd palette, there wasn't any testers so i jus bought without trying.. $8.90.. $4 more but i couldn't resist la >,<

kate brown eye liner bought at watsons m'sia.. only $16ringgit :x dhc lash tonic bought at watsons sg.. haven't try yet coz i'm happily using my talika lipocils ^^ cyber colors silver glitter liner at sasa m'sia only $9.90ringgit !! paul & joe's face color bought at sg beauty.. kate deep eyes palette GY-1 at sasa m'sia.. garnier face powder at watsons m'sia $11ringgit only !!

my recent stage haul ! my sis bought a cream concealer, 2 wonderglosses - venus & helen.. i bought gaia & dido.. wonderluxe lippie - naughty nude.. wonderlust lippie - gisele.. $8 each.. free stage nail color - innocent.. choose from 4 shades.. i rem got copper, deep maroon red, mauve.. this is valid for stage members with $45 above purchase.. there's 40% storewide not applicable for certain products eg. accessories etc.. the blusher was bought separately using my $10 voucher before this sale.. so i paid $15.. kinda redundant voucher coz of the 40% discount right now +_+ and ya, if u wanna buy liquid foundation or concealer at 50% discount, pls bring along any used liquid foundation or concealer to get the discount.. only limited to one purchase per customer.. so is either one.. u can bring along ur frens or brothers or boyfriends or whoever if u wanna buy more *winks ;D

mac mineralize eyeshadows - odd couple & fresh green mix.. jill stuart limited ed 101 vintage glaze.. bought at sg beauty.. yes finally, my very first jill stuart makeup !! i love my awesome buys !!

i've been lemming for this foundation powder for the longest time hahas ! finally i got this laneige sliding pact_ex(white plus renew) /bright skin tone 2 at $25 which is abt half the retail price i guess..

unique & effective multi functional pact provides natural coverage & luminous pearlescent complexion. excellent whitening cum long lasting uv protections.
the result: pure, matt, soft and luminant morning time makeup as it is. hope it's reali as awesome as it claims *cross fingers

this one also !! but only left one shade.. and, i bought it anyway :x laneige snow crystal dual foundation in deep beige 33.. for more dark medium skin tones.. umm i figure that i can jus use light tone loose powders over them so yups :x plus, it doesn't reali seem that dark afterall when i tested on.. my hand.. fyi, u r suppose to test on jawline for better accuracy.. oh wells..

this dual foundation has a concealer at the top and a foundation at the bottom. amazing, yes ! the foundation comprises the honey comb structure which conjuncts moisturizing ingredients and brings upon the cross linking complex – a complex that runs moisture like a cobweb, keeping moisture running all day. the result: imperfections like dark circles and blemishes are concealed and skin is kept moist and comfortable all day.

next up, is the laneige skin veil foundation in 21 natural beige.. more suitable for my skin tone.. can't wait to try all of 'em !!

laneige clear-c effector.. it's said to be a booster for transparent skin. to be applied after cleansing using cotton pad or ball every morning & night before skincare. it smells gd :x

laneige waterproof lip & eye makeup cleanser samples.. this dual layer cleanser and remover suits all skin types and effectively removes waterproof and heavy makeup on the lip and eye area.. i stil prefer maybelline or loreal ones.. or the expensive lancome one..

high perm curling mascaras.. i'm not reali liking 'em much yet.. hmm.. the world’s first disc rubber brush.. the brush is perfect for short stubborn lashes which refuse to curl as it comes with insuppressible curling power – curling lashes up to 70 degrees. jelly thickener wax enables lashes to stay flexible and soft while the fixed polymer enhances the mascara’s curling properties by curling and setting the perfect curl all day. umm.. i aint convinced yet..

highly pigmented babies !! i chose these 4 coz i don't wanna get so many :p i tink i'll love 'em pretty much *grins

snow crystal melting glossy lippie in happy pink ! will it make me happieee applying this alone ? hahas hope so.. i love pink !! ;)

snow crystal moisture lippie in nude beige ! i love nude lips.. it jus spells s-e-x-y heez :p
