(thanks to all who sent me a message and cheered me up after i posted my "Thursday Gloomy look." it definitely helped me feel a lot better...i am so glad to have you dearies!) so for my Friday look, i tried to at least be a bit more colorful and feel a lot cheerful. my officemates surely saw the difference (maybe i just got so good in pretending) and told me that i look a lot happier that day.

okay, another shot with my "lucky" eyeshadow color for this year. this time, i played with my MAC MES in Fresh Green Mix which i haven't used for a loooong time.

"Elianto Make-up Cleansing tissue thoroughly remove eye and face make-up without irritating skin. This pre-moistured tissue gently remove make-up impurities, it is convenient to use any where and any time. After removing make-up, follow by daily facial wash. " i've been a fan of Johnson's & Johnson's wet wipes for years now, until one day, i felt some sting on my face while using it. i was left with red rashes on my cheek that day. of course i was surprised, since the product is for sensitive skins. maybe, my skin is way beyond sensitive now that i am back with my obagi regimen? anyways, i've been using this elianto wipes for months now but only for makeup gigs. i alternate this with my MAC wipes but i tend to reach for this more often since well, this is much cheaper. :) what i love: it doesn't sting. i've tried cleaning my face with this after hours of having my facial and it didn't sting. i've been using it on my clients and no c...

as promised, here's my review on the Elianto Primer i got for P299...picture here . when i started wearing eyeshadows, i wanted to get MAC but because of its price, i wanted to get an alternative that will somehow give me the same color vibrancy and staying power at a lower price. i've been reading a lot of reviews on the elianto eyeshadows so i got myself a 20-e/s palette right away. :) for months, i've been trying to alternate these eyeshadows with my mineral pigments. i once tried it without any primer on my lids, and it creased. so from then on, i'm using it with my ever-reliable UDPP. and so last weekend, i went to an Elianto store with my sister and to my surprise, i saw that their new products include an eye primer...yeeeeeyy! i got one, the lighter shade among the two. Elianto says: "The lightweight cream that provides thin and even surface to prefectionize eyeshadow application. The optimize balance of emollient oil and waxes create superb smooth blendi...

i 'm too excited to try out the foundation samples i got from Dreamworld so despite my derma's instruction not to apply any makeup for at least 3days... i decided to try FREYJA because out of the 5 sample foundies i got, this is the closest to my shade (i think). face : Smashbox Photofinish Light primer, Dreamworld foundation in Freyja (Luna formulation), Valerie Red Zapper on blemishes, Taylormade blush in Girl lips: Nivea lip balm, Smashbox lip primer, TFS lipstick in Lovely pink topped with MAC gellee in Dewy Jube eyes: Modelco brow kit in Dark, UDPP topped with MAC paintpot in Painterly, Taylormade e/s in Bloom for the entire lid, Taylormade e/s in Mint on the lower half of thelid, Max Factor mascara in Brown for the first coat and Elianto Fake Lash Mascara in Brown for the second coat, Shu Uemura pro-concealer in 5YR light topped with OM saffron concealer.
