MakeUp Addicted

It's been a while! Here's my video on how to contour your face! I personally do not like my face shape and want to create the illusion of a slender face so I've decided to post this up for all you girls out there who doesn't like a chubby face! This doesn't take too long and makes you look lie you lost 10 lbs!Please let me know what you think! ENJOYYYYY:)

So girls, ready to party because summer is coming up! Clubbing, cocktail parties, dinner parties or just a girl's night out. You name it! Now, don't we all want to come back from the party and have wonderful pictures as memories of that night? How often do we come home only to find a picture of smeared makeup and eyeshadow creases. I AM GUILTY of that haha. Also you don't want to crawl right into bed after the party, a girl's got to take care of herself every night. What about the morning after, I look horrible. So to avoid that, lets talk about a couple of items you need to prepare for that night. So even if you are drunk the night before, at least the morning of your hangover, you've got the glam pictures. No more embarrassment!!

.::Touch ups

So don't we all need to touch up our makeup? Instead of rummaging frantically through out bag to find that little eyeliner, why not pack a palette. I highly recommend the Benefit Cosmetics 10 Palette (1). It includes bronzer, highlighter, lipstick and eyeshadows,

.::Before Hitting the Sack

As much as you do not want to at 4AM, clean your face! Just use wipes such as the Olay Daily Facials Express Wet Cleansing Clothes(2). Don't need a sink and these are pretty affordable for lazy people:)

.::The Morning After

Those eyes. Puffy black eyes the night after. I recommend using cold water to dab on to your eyes for 5-10 minutes. After that use an eyecream to rejuvenate those tired eyes. MAC's Fast Response Eye Cream(3). This sucker works well. Pat on eyes and let it aborb those vitamins! And if that really doesn't work, last resort is a good eye concealer. I suggest The Balm Time Anti-Wrinking Concealer(4) or the Benefit Industrial Concealer which can also work as a wonderful primer at the same time.

.::My Addition

For the party night as well as the day after, you need a good powder to get rid of the oily complexion especially when you party and sweat. My favorite is MAC STUDIO FIX POWDER. Nothing beats that. So bring that along with you at the party and depend on that the day after!


So there you goooo, no more party worries. Just ENJOY your night and the morning after without bringing your entire makeup collection with you!

Hey ladies,

I was browsing through SEPHORA when I found these three EYESHADOW MUST HAVE PALETTES. Apart from the MAC palettes that we all desire, I was thinking of having some fun with these three eyeshadow palettes.

1. SEPHORA Brand Colorful Story Palette




THE REAL DEAL: Now this one palette contains 16 of Sephora's best selling eyeshadow colors. So you get to sample ALL OF these in one palette. What else you need to know? Well, this chic black palette contains 16 shades in four finishes: matte, chrome, strass, and pearl. The ultra soft shadows can be used wet or dry, together or individually, to create a variety of different looks.Palette colors include Strass 7 (charcoral black with silver glitter), 9 (taupe shimmer with gold glitter), 3 (gold shimmer with gold glitter), 2 (silver shimmer with silver glitter); Pearl 8 (champagne beige pearl), 1 (white pearl), 9 (coral pearl), 7 (soft bronze pearl); Chrome 4 (vibrant iridescent teal-turquoise sheen), 3 (brown-green iridescent sheen), 6 (pale opalescent sheen), 2 (rich plum sheen); Mat 6 (matte white), 3 (matte chocolate brown), 7 (matte deep burgundy), 1 (matte charcoal black).

PRICE: I like the price on this one, this thing has $80 value and its sold for $35. Plus, you get 16 of them :D

2. The Pop Beauty Lid Neon

THE REAL DEAL: Are you BOLD enough for this one?! Hahaha look how the neon colors just POP. For those of you who wants to have fun and make a shocking statement. THIS IS PERFECT. By using intense color pigments teamed with a triple-milled super-silky formula, you can achieve a POP of fresh color with a velvet-matte finish. If you don't know how to apply these colors, I believe there are instructions for this palette so don't be scared or intimidated:).
PRICE: This is $22 for 6 colors so I'd say it's pretty affortable. I'd say this is more of a FUN palette.

3. Urban Decay Urban Ammo Eye Palette


THE REAL DEAL: I swear, after using URBAN DECAY eyeshadow, I ALMOST, ALMOST liked this more than MAC eyeshadow. I still love MAC but this is AMAZING and its worth a try. Basically for Urban Decay's 10th anniversary they put together this palette for their eyeshadow lovers. Covered in touchable, matte black paper, the compact features a mesmerizing assortment of UD elements - animals, hearts, skulls, and flourishes - gently wafting from a pistol in overlapping textures of violet metallic foil and rich velvety flocking. Upon opening the kit, you're met with endless eye options: 10 best-selling shadows are arranged as five sets of coordinating duos, running the gamut from subtle to sexy. The slim case is complete with a perfectly sized mirror, applicators, and a magnetic closure, so it's sure to stay closed in your handbag.Palette includes Eyeshadows in Smog (deep coppery bronze), Maui Wowie (sandy sheen), Mildew (shimmering metallic green), Shattered (bright iridescent aquamarine), Oil Slick (black with rainbow glitter), Polyester Bride (sheer white shimmer), Last Call (iridescent plummy purple), Grifter (sparkling pale purple), Chopper (shimmering fawn with glitter), and Sin (light shimmering champagne).

PRICE: $34 dollars for this gorgeous palette. WAY more affortable than MAC which gives 4 colors for quad so I'd buy this.

Thanks to javaxquee's request, I've decided to do this video. This is my own personal smoky black eye look called the smoky black eyeliner look. I know how much we all love the black eyeshadow look but sometimes that may be a little too much for the day. So, I've created this look that is more toned down and natural to wear during day time. It's simple and quick and you don't have to be very good at makeup to do this at all. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy this video and let me know what you think. Finally fixed my camera so i don't look like I have a meatball face..hehe. Thanks for watching!!

Alright, I've gotten a few questions about the blush I use! I know some ladies are all about being natural and believe it or not, choosing the RIGHT brush can make the difference between a CLOWN look and a FLUSHED look. Blush needs to look natural and make you look like you've just run 4 miles. So I've done some research and testing and want to introduce 4 best blushes. 2 of them are HIGH END and 2 of them are LOW END. I always do this because I know some of you (like me) are pretty broke! So here it is:


[ HIGH END ]

NARS ORGASM BLUSH

Made with transparent pigments for a soft and sheer look. Imparts a natural, healthy glow for any skin tone and may be worn alone or layered together for more depth and intensity. This sheer look gives you a natural glow. It is a great blush especially for fair skinned people because of its discrete color. It's Nar's best selling product.


BENEFIT DANDELION BLUSH
Fake awake with Dandelion - Benefit's ballerina-pink pressed highlighting powder. Just one stroke of Dandelion takes your complexion from dull to radiant in an instant. It's shimmery, satiny, radiant, perk-me-up finish is guaranteed to make them wonder ..."How do you look so pretty at eight in the morning?" Unlike the other blushes, this blush comes in a very fancy packaging, sort of in a treasure box with a brush included. I bought this for my best friend. She BARELY uses wear makeup but this is all she uses.


[ LOW END ]

PHYSICIAN'S FORMULA MULTICOLORED BLUSH PALETTE

This is what I use everyday in my videos. Cheap and the multicolored palette creates the PERFECT blush. A beautiful mosaic of complementary hues to contour and accentuate cheekbones with soft color and discreet shimmer.It’s the perfect combination of colors that blend together to naturally enhance your cheekbones.The finest Italian talc provides a silky-smooth application that blends easily without streaking or irritating sensitive skin.

Almay Smart Shade Blush ( for those who can't pick a PERFECT shade )

With smart shade blush, there’s no more guessing about how to find your perfect blush shade. This revolutionary blush contains microscopic shade-sensing color beads that are activated when you smooth it on—transforming into a shade that perfectly complements your skin tone. Simply pick your favorite shade, smooth it on and watch it instantly blush for you. Plus, the antioxidant blend of vitamins and grapeseed nurtures your skin. For sheer, radiant color every time. I haven't given this a try yet but heard MANY positive comments about it. Plus, the grapeseed and vitamins is definitely a plus. There aren't many blushes that contain vitamins yet.

There it is! Tell me what you think and submit your favourite blushes. I will add it to the list. Thanks:)

Here are additions to the list based on comments:

How many eyeliners do we all have? One for every color. How many eyeshadows do we have? TONS TONS TONS! Well, how about if I tell you that you don't have to buy ONE MORE eyeliner in your life! Save save save. I just bought this and it works wonders. Since I'm broke:(, I don't need to buy anymore eyeliners. All I do is use my eyeshadow and turn that into an eyeliner!

No more spending hundreds on eyeliners! Take your favorite eyeshadow and dip the Urban decay eyeshadow transforming potion brush into it! VOILA! Instant eyeliner that is vibrant and lasts for hours!

Hi everyone, I would like to introduce the best eyeshadow primer ever. It's called URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION, otherwise known as UDPP. Sounds familiar? I just made my purchase on an Urban Decay Primer and will be doing a video on it. I also received a Urban Decay Eyeshadow Transforming Potion too. I won't go into details because I will be doing a review on it. STAYED TUNED!


Eyeshadow Primer Potion

This miracle eyeshadow primer is unmatched by any other in the beauty industry! The genie in this bottle fulfills three wishes: eyeshadow that lasts, more vibrant and lasting color, and absolutely NO creasing. Apply Primer Potion to lids before shadow application. It dries down almost instantly ( and invisibly ), creating smooth lids that are super powered eyeshadow magnets.

The formula is full of silicone, which you beauty mavens know makes for a smooth and silky application. Packaged in a pretty genie bottle, our Potion applies with a magic wand and flocked applicator.

Tips: A little goes a long way! Apply a thin coat and let dry, then apply Eyeshadow as you normally would. Then DARE it to crease. (Double-dog dare it, even!)
Fill Weight: 10ml e 0.34 US fl. oz.

Price: $16.00

Want that exotic look? The cat eye look is hot on the runway and now everyone is doing it! So take a look at this simple look. It is great if you don't have time to put layers of eyeshadow.


You can use ANY liquid or gel liner to create this look. I used:

Loreal Linear Intense in Carbon Black

Here's my golden brown eye look. This is a very shimmery look created with neutral colors such as brown, black and light gold. It can be worn during day or night time so it is one of my favorites!
