gimme money for a mojito...

-
(me laughing at my post title)

well, i was trying to figure out the combo that i would be wearing for my friend's wedding. the motiff is green and copper so i figured that probably i should be wearing green...and since i'm not really into lipsticks (i prefer nudish pinks) i thought of wearing something strong...something dark...probably smokey. i am not sure if that would be okay to wear in a wedding though.

anyways, here's what i came up with.
(definitely not smokey)

sighs

i badly need some help...

used: UDPP + MAC PP in Soft Ochre all over lid, Milan e/s in Milan's Mojito from the lash lines to just above the crease, Milan's e/s in Money Green on the outer-V, eye contour and as a liner on the lower lash lines, Meow IdealEyes in Kept Kitty applied below the brow bones to highlight, Everyday Minerals e/s in Smokey as eye liner on the upper lash lines, L'oreal Lash Architect mascara in black and Modelco Brow kit in Dark


(before buffing in my concealer hehehe)

used: Smashbox Photofinish primer light, Everyday Minerals foundation in Fairly Light Neutral Intensive, Elegant Minerals concealer in Golden Wheat on the blemishes (which i have lots! and i mean LOTS!), Shu Uemura pro concealer topped with Joppa yellow concealer on the undereyes, MAC Accentuate and Sculpt and Smashbox lipstick in Sweet

sorry bout the pic. i haven't buffed my concealer yet...so there you'd see how terrible my face looks. and it's definitely worse without makeup.

hay...just when i need to have smooth and clear skin.

darn.

Hiya, Jheng!

If you're still having dilemma on what colours to wear to get that smokey look you wanted... I was just wondering if you've tried YSL Eye Shadow Dou/5GA. This one I've got, it's got a lovely shimmer and it's a combination of brown gold and lame green. I normally blend them together and top my lid creases up with gradual application of black to make them darker. I hope this helps.

Product Review: Gluta-C Underarm and Bikini Skin Whitening Gel....

It has been more than a month since I started using this underarm whitening gel from Gluta-C (read about its launch here ).  So did it work, or not? I'll make you bitin muna , first let me tell you what the product is all about... ^_^ Gluta-C Intense Whitening Underarm & Bikini Skin Whitening Gel Formulated with Glutathione, Vitamin C and Bellis Perennis (Daisy) Flower extract, it lightens dark spots, prevents melanin formation and visibly whitens underarms and darker toned areas (bikini area, inner thighs, elbows and knees) for even-toned skin.   It also has Green Tea extract and other moisturizing agents to hydrate the skin, keeping it soft and smooth to the touch.   There's also protein to help slow down hair regrowth, reducing the frequency of shaving or plucking.  Hair grows back softer and thinner too, making coarse stubbles a thing of the past. I think most of us suffer from uneven skin tone on our underarms and bikini are...

  It's almost Christmas...just two days away and honestly, I don't feel like being festive.  I am going through A LOT these past weeks and as much as I want to say I am okay, I just can't.    How can one be okay when that one person whom you thought would stay with you no matter what just decided to drop everything that has got to do with you and just move on?  How can one be okay when you're told right in your face that he's in love with someone else and that he can't be with you anymore.  How can one be okay when despite everything you still want to hold on and fight for him, but he has given up already...given up on you and given up on the idea of you two being together.   We've been thru a hell lot.  Our relationship is far from being perfect. But despite that, we still find ourselves back together.  And I know we can still get through this, this time. But like what he said, things just happened. It was so fast it was like eve...

GLOWW... your way to a younger, brighter and pinkish skin...

There was a time when I was such a sucker for anything whitening. I've tried both IV and oral glutathiones, and of course, whitening lotions. Years passed by and my reasoning went beyond whitening. Having an incurable case of insomnia, not to mention TOO MUCH stress from work, my skin needs a lot of help to keep it from aging prematurely. Besides, who would want to look a lot older from your age? When news about the possible bad effects of glutathione spread on the news, I eventually stopped...i tried to keep a healthier lifestyle instead like eating more veggies and fruits, TRYING to sleep early and keeping myself away from stress. But as I get older, I realized I need more than that. I need supplements to help me fight aging and to stay looking young. I was just thinking about what skin vitamins to try when the PR for GLOWW contacted me. It was such a good timing, really. So what is GLOWW ? GLOWW is not actually a whitening pill. It's a skin supplement to he...
