Or evening.. depends where you are. For me, it's evening, so good evening/morning/afternoon - i'll stop with the good whatevers now.
Today, I decided i'd make a blog post on my MOTD (makeup of the day)~ if you follow me on Instagram *cough* @hardyharharharrison *cough* you'd be seeing "teasers" of what I was going to post. Now there's no more waiting, huzzah!
 |
| So, of course, we start off with a clean face |
 |
| I use Simple toner before I do anything - pores and what not |
 |
| Followed by their moisturiser |
 |
| This is seriously cheap but quite good stuff. NYC Smooth Skin Perfecting Primer - god, that's a mouthful. |
 |
| A primer, followed by another primer. Etude House Baby Choux Base - this makes my skin matte |
 |
| Only a small amount of this sweet smelling goodness is needed |
 |
| Dot it about and rub that bad boy in |
 |
| Because it is rather hot in Singapore, I don't feel like using BB cream as it's too thick, so i'll use the best concealer ever - Lasting Perfection by Collection (which is now available in SG!) |
 |
| Just popping it on my face... |
 |
| WOW MUCH DIFFERENCE, SUCH CHANGE, VERY SKIN, MANY FLAWLESS SKIN |
 |
| As soon as I am happy with my concealer, I set it right away as this helps it from not creasing under my eyes - using Stay Matte Powder by Maybeline |
 |
| (Sorry it's burry) I then put Lip Ice on my lips as a lip balm (this is pink and glittery, so you'll feel instantly fabulous while your lips are moisturised) |
 |
| I prime my eyes with Urban Decay Eden Primer Potion (again, another mouthful) |
 |
| Only a teeny-tiny amount will suffice |
 |
| I applied a matte off-white eyeshadow from the Sleek Respect palette all over my eye lid |
 |
| I'm going to use this brown contour colour form the Sleek Contour and Highlighting kit through my crease and under my lower lash line |
 |
| In this shape - like so! |
 |
| I then applied the golden eyeshadow from the Etude House Valentines day palette underneath my eye |
 |
| Like so! |
 |
| I'll come back to the eyes in a bit, but now I shall fill in my brows. I've been supporting a straight brow for a while now, I like them. Anyway, I use the dark grey eyeshadow in the Sleek Supreme palette |
 |
| First of all, I like to draw a line on how straight I want my brows to be - but only on the outer half |
 |
| I then fill in the arch of the brow |
 |
| With a spooly, I blend the eyeshadow forward, towards the beginning of my brow |
 |
| For me, this gives a much more "natural" looking brow, rather than it being very obviously drawn in |
 |
| Much eyebrow, wow. |
 |
| I applied a pearl eyeshadow to the inner corners of my eyes to brighten them |
 |
| I used my Heronie Make Impact Liquid Eyeliner to line my eyes |
 |
| I wanted my eyeliner quite thick, so I applied it on my top lid first |
 |
| Once I was happy with the lid line, I made a line from the corner of my eyes, going upwards - I follow my natural lower lash line |
 |
| Then I connected the end of the line I just made to the line on my eyelid (I do hope i'm making sense) |
 |
| Then I filled in the triangular part, and tah-dah |
 |
| Once I had lined my eyes, I lined my waterline with Etude House Bling Bling Eye Stick in gold |
 |
| I then applied Fairy Drops mascara to my top and bottom lashes |
 |
| Woo hoo, eyes done |
 |
| I contoured using the Sleek contour palette that I had used previously |
 |
| I applied Canmake's pink blush on the apples of my cheeks, as I am pale and if I don't apply any colour on them, I look dead |
 |
| Back to the Sleek contour kit, I used the highlighter on the tops of my cheek bones, nose and cupids bow |
 |
| I used this tester of Etude House's Fresh Cherry Tint in the red colour |
 |
| Before I applied the lip tint, I blanked out my lips with the left over concealer that was on my brush |
 |
| Only a tiny bit is needed |
 |
| I applied the tint to the centre of my lips and blended out |
 |
| FACE COMPLETED! |
 |
| I fixed up my hair and made it look less poo than it was before |
 |
| If anyone is curious, my current hair colour is lilac, pink and turquoise - mermaid-esque |
 |
| I threw on my bowler hat, which I regret because it was so damn hot |
 |
| $1 earrings from F21, aw yiss |
 |
| When I get ready, I really like to listen to upbeat music, it keeps me in a good mood, and I am loving 2NE1's new album CRUSH, which I think y'al should give a listen to |
 |
| Also, i'm addicted to Läkerol. |
So yes, that's it for today! I hope you liked it and things~
I'll be doing tutorials again soon, I just need to manage my time right and it'll be grand!
Thanks for reading,
