At a beautiful wedding! (LOTD)

Hi all! We attended Yoshi's cousin's wedding on Saturday at a beautiful apple orchard home. Everything went perfect and the decorations were absolutely amazing! I'll be sharing my LOTD and OOTD along with some pictures of the wedding scenes.


Seating area


Apples of Glasgow

It was a wonderful day and lucky for everyone, the weather was perfect!


Beautiful table setup!!!


Overlooking the very large "backyard"

Yoshi and I decided to be silly and took some shots of us running through the apple fields..

Finally, my LOTD and OOTD!


I had a coral + green look :D I figured it would be nice with some colours!


Hi again!

I got the dress  from F21 last month! Luckily no one had the same dress >.<

Bronze & Coral Makeup Tutorial

Hi everyone! Today I'm back with a summer themed makeup tutorial featuring bronzed eyes and coral lips!


Finish Look

Unfortunately my skin is not in its best condition and the pictures of myself are also not that great today.


I got frustrated!!


Before

Nontheless I'll still share this look with all of you :)


Sigma F80; Revlon Photo Ready Foundation in Nude

Like usual, prime your face with a primer/ moisturiser/ sunscreen and apply your favourite foundation. I am using the usual, although from time to time I do switch it up a little.


Physicians Formula Eye Brightening Eyeliner (Brown); Eye Strong Brow Pencil; Maybelline Falsies Mascara 

Tight line your eyes using the Physicians formula eyeliner pencil and groom brows like usual. 


NARS Soft Touch Shadow Pencil in Skorpios

Use a bronze colour base to prime your eyes. This will help to bring out the eyeshadow colours we are going to lay on later.


Tight lined + NARS Skorpios base


NAKED Palette (1)

Today I'll be using 3 colours from this palette, Smog (Dark Bronze), Sin (Shimmery Pinky Beige), and Virgin (Shimmery Beige). Feel free to use the eyeshadows you have in your collection. There is no need to buy this palette if you already have similar colours.


F21 Dual Ended Brush; Furless Blending Brush; ELF Eye Crease Brush; random Eyeshadow Brush

I really like the dual ended brush from Forever 21 but they no longer carry it in store. I bought this quite awhile ago now, although they constantly have new makeup tools, I'm not sure if the quality is similar to this one that I own. 


Base colour (Smog)

First, use the eyeshadow brush and pick up a dark bronze colour and apply it 3/4 across the upper lid and 1/3 of the lower lash line. Leave the rest clean for the next colour.


Apply Sin (Shimmery Pinky Beige) + Blended

Use the ELF brush to apply colour Sin and blend out with the Furless Blending brush using a bit of Virgin (Shimmery Beige) colour.



Completed Eyes 1

Line your upper lash line with the same Physicians Formula eye pencil and apply mascara.


Completed Eyes 2

We're almost there!


Canmake Powder Cheeks in PW19; Tarte Mineral Bronzer in Park Ave Princess

Use the dual ended brush and apply a coral blush and contour lightly with a bronzer for a sunkissed look.



Without lip colour

Apply your favourite coral lip colour, I'll be using Revlon Lip Butter in 015 Tutti Fruitti.

Tadahhhhh!

That's it for today :) I'll see you tomorrow again with another makeup tutorial!

Easy Pin Up Look

I hope that everyone had a great weekend! We finally head to watch Madagascar 3 yesterday :) I now have Afro Circus song as my ringtone!

Today I'll be sharing some tips to create an easy pin up look! It doesn't require much effort or a lot of time to complete this look. It took me about 20 minutes including taking pictures for the blog.

Finish Look

First and foremost, start with your primer or sun screen as you wish. Today I used Elf Flawless Finish Foundation for the first time with my Beauty Blender. 


For a more natural finish, remember to always wet your sponge (and squeeze out the excess water) prior to foundation application. This will help your make up to blend more easily and less likely to look cakey.

BEFORE Foundation

AFTER Foundation

Like usual, tight line (I used MAC's Black Track Fluid Line) and apply eye primer. 



Start off with applying a light shimmery peach colour across your lid, focusing on the inner corner and centre of the lid. Use the eye shading brush for this step.

Shimmery Peach Eyeshadow

Use the blending brush with a matte dark brown colour to blend lightly across the outer corner and drag the colour inwards just a slight bit. After, use eye shading brush with the same matte brown and line on the outer corner of the lower lash line.


 Clean the brush with a towel/ tissue, use a shimmery beige colour and highlight the rest of the lower lash line. Blend with fingers on the lower lash line.


Slight wing cat eyeliner + mascara

Line your eyes using a stiff tip liquid eyeliner for easier winged eyeliner application. Apply mascara.


Bobbi Brown Lash Glamour Extreme Lengthening Mascara

Contour the sides of your face and the bridge of your nose using a large stippling brush and  a matte bronzer.

MAC 187SE Brush; NYC Sunny Bronzer

Apply a peachy blush on the apples of your cheeks and blend out. 

Benefit Coralista Blush (tester size); Sigma F40 Angled Brush


Before Lipstick

Apply your favourite red lipstick and there you go!

Thank you for your time and see you tomorrow!
