Tutorial: Neutral eye-makeup 2

Image
i know i posted a tutorial on how to do neutral eye makeup months ago...and this is just another one. please bear with me now since i'd be doing another neutral look...give me some weeks more and i'll be back to wearing COLORFUL looks :) for today's looks, i've used the following colors: 1 - Phenomenal (AWG) 2 - Amazing (AWG) 3 - Semi-matte brown (Monave) 4 - Pearl (Pure Anada) on with the tutorial: 1. Start by priming the lids, i've used UDPP 2. Apply the first color (Phenomenal) on the entire lids 3. Apply the second color (Amazing) on the outer half of the lid 4. Apply the 3rd color (Semi-matte brown) on the outer-V for more definition blend, blend, blend 5. Apply highlighter on the browbones and tearducts using 4th color (Pearl), line the upper lash lines with fluidline in Dipdown, curl lashes and apply mascara (Plush Lash by MAC). I've also lined my waterlines with white eyeliner (PAC) Final Look: For the face, I've used Ultimate All da...

"Green" is my lucky eyeshadow color this year....

...and because of that, i vowed to myself that i'd be wearing GREENS more often! tee-hee... actually, i was just too lazy again to do my eyemakeup...so i decided to roadtest my Aromaleigh e/s again! now i am wishing they have pressed e/s...for i am starting to adore those that i got as gift from my good friend Phoebe. I know it isn't Friday yet...but who cares! I've been wearing a lot of neutrals lately, but it's summer and i want more colors! hmmm, maybe i can wear something really summer-y tomorrow?

subtle blue look from Pure Anada minerals...

it's been a while since i last played with my loose mineral eyeshadows, and yep, i have tons of them! good thing i only got sample baggies (most of them i've transferred to pots) when i first got addicted to buying online a year ago. i remember getting a hundred of e/s shades and still call it "sampling." LOL.. honestly, i still want to get more. but i definitely need to stop myself from doing so. i have no idea how on earth i'd be able to finish all of them. last thursday, i reached out for an envelope which holds my Pure Anada samples (yep, i haven't found the time to take them off it) and since it's still not a Friday, i decided to go for a subtle non-neutral look. (geesh, i look terrified in this pic!)

my Pure Anada look...

i finally got to try my Pure Anada samples i got weeks ago. I've been reading a lot of great reviews about this brand so i decided to give it a try though i swore that i'd stop my mmu sampling months ago. i tried to keep my sampling at a minimum, unlike before when i used to get all shades even for sampling purposes only. hehhee (those were the days) and i am so glad that i ordered from this brand. here's my PURE ANADA looks (well, almost): EYES: Modelco Brow kit in Dark topped with MAC Girl Boy Too Faced Shadow Insurance Pure Anada e/s in Oceanmist on the lid, Pure Anada e/s in Nautical (applied wet) on the outer -V and crease and MAC e/s in Moodring on the lower lashlines, MAC Shroom to highlight MAC fluidline in Blacktrack on the upper lash lines MAC Loud Lash Mascara MUFE eyeliner in Black on the waterlines FACE: Pure Anada foundation in Ivory Chinook and Soft Wheat (80:20) MUFE HD Finishing powder The Face Shop blush in Pastel Pink MAC Shape and Sculpt LIPS : Artd...

MMU sampling again???

Image
i know...i know.it's been quite a while since i last ordered mineral makeup online. I think the last one was from Beauty from the Earth? I ordered their 20-pc sampler set because i got enabled by a few bloggers who featured the brand. I like all the colors i got and if only i don't have lots of samples to play with...i would've gotten more. i then promised myself to stop my mmu sampling. so, what have i been thinking that i again ordered samples and this time from Pure Anada ? well, again...i got enabled by the great reviews i've read. tee-hee. i've ordered some foundation samples and of course some blushes, finishers and eyeshadows. I still have a lot of mmu foundation samples i haven't tried, but i guess, the search for an HG foundation just never stops...don't you think so too? ;-) I've ordered samples of their foundations in Atlantic Bisque, Ivory chinook, Soft Wheat, Golden Harvest and Sunkissed Canadian. I just hope i'd be able to find ...
