in as much as i wanted to do a video tutorial, i just don't have time to do so. please bear with me if i can only do pictures for now :) for those who have been requesting for an easy neutral look, here it is: 1. prime lids with an eye primer to help keep your eyeshadow from creasing 2. apply your base color (Champagne Quartz) by patting the color on the lid up to the crease. to get rid of any harsh lines, use a big fluffy eyeshadow brush and do a wiper motion on the crease 3. Using a medium sized blending brush, add a slightly darker color than the one applied on the lid. brush the color (copper sand) starting from the outer part of the lid going in and stopping before getting to the middle of the eyelid 4. Using a smaller blending brush (MAC 226), apply a color darker (Espresso) than the first two shades used. Starting from the outer corner of the lid, go in brushing the pigment up to where the 2nd color ends. Shading your outer-V with a darker color gives more definition ...

...just for a day for a basic airbrush workshop! with our teacher, Ms. Faye Young i got my airbrush equipment last month and though i have practiced several times on myself and other people, i still didn't think i have enough confidence to offer airbrush service to clients. i still remember way back when i had to enroll in a make up class just to have that needed confidence that i can do make up on other people. i've always have this feeling that i need to be to formally trained on everything before i can finally tell myself that i can do it. ugh okay, i just don't trust myself on certain things.. ^_^ so when i got my airbrush stuff, i just knew i wouldn't have the guts to use it on people (and get paid) unless i get to attend a workshop. X probably knew that so told me to avail of this workshop being offered by Kryolan, where he also got me my airbrush stuff. yay! (now i realized that i wasn't able to get my certificate from LCI...sniff) i was able to learn ...

I wear make up (almost) everyday, unless it's a weekend and I'm just staying at home. So yeah, i have all that gunk on my face: long-wearing foundation, waterproof eye liner and mascara..the works! so I have to make sure that I always have a make up remover available at all times to take off those nasty make up. There are a lot of good removers out there, but it wouldn't hurt to have something that works and definitely won't break the bank. MAYBELLINE Make Up Remover (Eye & Lip) Efficient & Easy: This formula instantly removes all eye and lip make up, even waterproof ad non-transfer Gentle: Formulated for sensitive eyes, it is especially very gentle for the delicate skin around the eyes To use: Shake well before use. Soak a cotton pad with the lotion and apply on your eyes or lips. eye make up with waterproof eye liner and mascara dab cotton for 3o seconds (or more) on your eye and voila: funny that my lashes are still curled (yay for Maybelline Lash Stil...

there are times when you'd plan to go out for dinner/drinks after work. and some (like me), are just too lazy to change from office clothes to an after-office attire. at times like that, i'd make sure i would wear something that wouldn't look too casual for work and too formal for a night out. a jacket/blazer over a simple sleeveless top and a pair of jeans made of soft fabric and a very comfy high-heeled sandals would be my best bet. sleeveless top Jacket from Oxygen Jeans from Penshoppe Shoes from Melissa (Malika) this jacket is ! after office, you can just take off the jacket to look a lot more casual for a dinner-movie date with your girl friends my EOTD: tata!

I've always been a fan of another brand of shampoo/conditioner. But maybe, like my skin, it comes a time when my hair gets used to what I am using and just stops reacting to it. I've been lemming on another (sort of) high-end brand but I still can't bring myself to buying it every 2 weeks (yeah, i drink my shampoo and conditioner like that!). Then I saw this ad in a magazine: Pantene Nature Care honestly, i got smitten by Angelica (who wouldn't!?) and 'twas the first reason why i decided to buy the entire line. oh yeah, i easily get influenced by endorsers too! (wink wink) i bought the shampoo (small), the hair treatment and that monster-sized conditioner. 3 days of using the shampoo and conditioner (and the treatment, once) i just love how my hair looks and feels right now. i used to blow dry my hair to give it some body, but now i just let it air dry and my hair doesn't look limp (or probably a lot less limp than it used to) anymore. i also love how my...
