Glow by Lady E

Here is another makeup ad that I couldn’t resist copying: This one is from ELF If you’re new to this blog, you must know that I am super acidic (that’s why I use a very light foundation) and my skin is dry due to the current climate. Here are the tools that I used: For the eyes: Benefit Lemon Aid LA Colors Abstract Palette NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk For the face: NYX Grinding Blush in American Girl MAC Lightful Foundation For the lips: MAC Playing Koi Clinique Lip Gloss Brushes: Sigma F40 for the blush Charm blending brush for bronzer and highlighter application Sigma E40 for blending eyeshadows Bobbi Brown Eyeshadow brush for the pink Sigma E55 for the blues Sigma E40 for deeper blue and black Bobbi Brown Eyeliner used as a lip brush I skipped the falsies. Well, you know why. = )

I said I would post a close up look of my FOTD by Baby of Clinique but as usual, I forgot because of the gazillion things that I have to do. But here it is now: Baby was fooling around with my camera. She was the one who was taking these shots. I was really not in the mood for photos but as they say, the show must go on! Here’s a close up of the eye: I love how they make me look simple and fresh! A perfect pick-me-up!

During the summer vacation, I would always ask C to run errands with me or hang out in the mall or do both. Here are random photos of one of our trips. Here’s the hairstyle that I wore. I always wore my hair up as I couldn’t stand the heat: I used my magic comb for this hairstyle: We ate at Shakey’s. I love putting cherry in my Sprite so I really loved this drink: I just didn’t like the cherry syrup which made the drink too sweet. This is my NARS face and her Clinique face: She likes fooling around when I’m busy: My sister is not kikay. C’s sister is not so kikay as well. It’s great that we share a common passion for girly things so we really enjoy our trips.

This is one of my favorite buys at NARS. This is the Nouveau Monde (new world) Duo. You can use this duo for a day or night look. I used this for an EOTD but I couldn’t get the colors to show on cam. [Any tips Charles? = )] So I just took an FOTD: I love the fact that it lasts long. I don’t have to re-apply several times throughout the day and at night, I just made the colors darker, blending the green shade towards the lavender to create a somewhat smoky eye effect. And I’m using the gray bow headband here (from a previous post). I think this is my first FOTD. I’ll try to post more in the future. Have you tried the NARS Spring 11 collection yet?
