fierce!

Image
i've been really having a hard time to sleep these days that my eyebags are much, much bigger than my eyes already. eww, yuck! and i know i should try to stay away from putting on eye makeup that will draw attention to my eyes. but i just can't help it. it's like, i am "forced" to use up all the makeups i've been buying for the last few months...and besides, i also need to practice, practice, practice! this look really came out fierce. i know it did make my bags look more noticeable. oh well...another boo-boo, maybe? EYES: UDPP Pureluxe Pink Pearls to highlight Pureluxe Lemon on the inner lid Shiseido palette (used the blue shade, yep blue! but it looked more black, eh!?) on the outer lid and outer-V TFS eyeliner in White on the lower lash lines MAC Technakohl in Phone Number on the water lines Modelco Brow kit in Dark topped with MAC Brow Gel in Boy Girl Elianto Gel Liner in Black on the upper lash line VMV Oh-la-lash Mascara in Black FACE: Monistat as pr...

going back to mmu eyeshadows...

it's been a while since i last used my mineral pigments for my eotn. i'd be forever grateful to them since they started my addiction with eyeshadows. i've been addicted to foundations and blushes and might have been buying eyeshadows before but never got to use them...until i got so amazed with the colors of these mineral pigments. so even though i am starting to get addicted with MAC eyeshadows, i will never, ever abandon my collection of mineral pigments. besides, i still have tons to use! i dunno what to call this look...any suggestions? EYES: UDPP MAC Shroom to highlight Oceanmist e/s in Tiki on the lid up to the crease Oceanmist in Golden Pearl on the contour (on top of Tiki) Pureluxe e/s in Lush on the outer-V Pureluxe e/s in Amethyst on the lower lashlines topped with TFS eyeliner in light purple TFS eyeliner in White on the waterlines Modelco Brow kit in Dark topped with MAC Brow Gel in Boy Girl Elianto Gel Liner in Black on the upper lash line FACE: Monistat as ...

"sweet girl" look...

Image
for this look, i tried to stray from my usual "fierce" look. i know i've been using a lot of pinks and purples in the past, but i always combine it with something dark like blue, grayish black or dark green. so for this LOTN, i tried to pull off a sweet, innocent look: EYES: UDPP MAC Shroom to highlight MAC Swish on the inner half of the lid 4U2 light pink on the outer half of the lid MAC Parfait Amour on the outer crease CoverGirl VolumeExact Mascara in Black Brown Modelco Brow kit in Dark topped with MAC Brow Gel in Boy Girl MAC Technakohl in Phone Number on the waterlines MAC Fluidline in BlackTrack on the upper lash line FACE: Becca Mineral Primer with SPF Cinema secrets concealer on blemishes, side of the nose and undereyes Lauress Minimalist Foundation in Radiant Ivory Lauress Fantastic Finish in Medium EDM Blush in Walkee Talkee MAC Sculpt and Shape to contour nose LIPS: Smashbox lipstick in Sweet i actually wore a pink headband...yaiks, pink headband with my yel...

finally, my traincases....

Image
since last week, i've been on a hunt for a traincase that will be enough for me to contain all my stashes for school. i went to Beauty Bar (though i know it'll be too small) but the black traincase is no longer available. i was tempted to borrow my mom's but it was a gift from me and X last christmas and i just cant bring myself to borrow it even for some time. today, i had the chance to go to Quiapo (recommended place by some fellow forumers) and look for a traincase. i really wanted to get the one from Watercolors, which is by the way of color pink, but the small size is already 7k! darn...i first went somewhere in Makati to look but apparently what they have are those makeup tables with lights, prices ranging from 8k-12k. i texted X and asked him if he can accompany me to Quiapo and he said yes...after which i changed my mind and told him "maybe some other time." hahahha! as if he's the one asking for a favor, no!? anyways, after almost an hour, he finall...
