So.. I was one of the beauty bloggers in the October issue of Seventeen magazine. Each of us were given different make up looks. Since I was the youngest, they chose a bright and vibrant look for me.
I'm not very happy with the photo since I look sooo bad T_T~ *emo* Bright colours without eyeliner just spells disaster for me *super emo* Plus they made me smile like that to show my dimples (so getting braces one day). I never smile like that in photos *extremely emo* Annnddd I made the mistake of wearing green lenses so I had to remove them and didn't bring my grey ones *emo-ness oozing out of every pore*
So.. To make myself feel better, I redid the look and camwhored =_=" Pics from my Galaxy S2. First one using primary camera, next 2 using secondary camera. Obviously the main camera looks better but I can't see how the picture looks like.
Basically, it's yellow on top and blue below with mascara and no eyeliner. Light pink/peachy blusher & pinkish nude lips.
Love my lashes here!
*still emo-ing* Was so emo about this that Andrew rushed back to give me hugs lolol
Hmm.. Btw I feel like my pic has a 'Silkygirl feel' to it =_="
Products used :
Stage Picture Perfect Liquid Camouflage (04 Diva Doll)
NYX Eyeshadow Base (Skintone)
Bright yellow from Manly palette
Blue from LA Colors Tease palette
Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara - super lengthening to compensate for not using eyeliner
Jordana Blush Powder (Touch of Pink)
Elf Plumping Lip Glaze (Baby Doll)
Polka dotted ribbon hair clip from night market
The eyeshadow base I used is skin colour but it would have been more vibrant if I used a base which is the same colour as the eyeshadow or a white base (NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk works great here).
Now.. If you're not daring enough to try this look, you can tone it down by adding brown into the crease. It makes the look much more wearable. I've changed to my Stage lipstick here.
Personally, I think darker eyes suit me better =_=" Converted it to a night look by adding black/dark grey from my Elf Duo Eyeshadow (Licorice) and applied eyeliner. The blue on the lower lash line actually looks good with dark eyeshadow.
*sigh..* Okay, I feel much better now lol
