Brunette

Hello there!

Just got back from vacation and still veryyyyyy tired.

So, i'll just write a quick FOTD post today.

I had TaeYeon of SNSD in mind when i did this make up. I don't really like Korean girl bands, but lately she's caught my attention. I think she is one of the cutest Korean stars i've seen so far. Not to mention she sings prettily too.

I didn't really copy her make up literally, but i put an extra effort with this pretty brunette wig i bought from Pinoko Beauty. I wish my hair was really this long!!! I've never had a long hair since... FOREVER!!! Husband doesn't like me with long hair, he prefers short to medium length.

Anyway, here's the look, tell me what do you think :)

Contouring Tutorial

Sometimes i really hate my flat face, and my big nose tip. I did wish (once or twice) i was born Caucasian with that glorious nose bridge, sharp nose, bambi eyes and amazing bone structures.
That's when make up saved the day, highlighting my best features and also covering the bad.
The solution for my problem is simple; CONTOURING.

Contouring is a very popular way of applying makeup. However, most people don't contour when applying makeup, mainly because they're not sure of how to. Contouring can make your face look thinner while bringing out your best qualities. It will also help you to hide the parts of your face that you don't want to draw attention to. Master contouring to show off your best features. (From Ehow.com)

I contour my face to get a sharper nose, smaller nose tip and thinner face. Contouring is also the safer, cheaper and faster way to get the KPop stars V-shaped face that most of us love so much.You don't need to do plastic surgery to achieve it. Don't believe me? Let's proof it :D

This is my face before any contouring, very flat.

Here goes my contouring step-by-step

1. Apply the contouring product on the area below your cheeks. Start from the hairline near your ear to the hollow of your cheekbones. Don't go too far or it will look unrealistic. Blend it out and take it all the way up to the temples.
2. Move to the nose, starting from where your eyebrow begins down to the bottom for a slimmer, sharper nose effect. Blend it out.
3. For V-shaped face, apply the contouring product from the hair line below the cheekbones to the side of the jaws. You can also bring it down further to hide the double chin. Don't forget to blend it out. Blend, blend, blend.
4. This is optional, but i love to contour the area under my bottom lip to make it looks fuller.

And here's the result

Here's the comparison, before and after contouring

For contouring i use 2 contouring brushes. The big one for cheeks and jaws and small one for nose.
For the contouring product, i own Chanel Notorious (used on this tutorial) and TheBalm Bahama Mama.

Beside contouring, highlighting is also essential. Combined together they give me the dimension that my flat face needs. I will make a tutorial of it soon *fingercrossed*

Well, that's it for now, hope you like it.

Til next post, ladies!

Bold Eyebrow Tutorial

As you can see on the photos on my blog and my Instagram, i love bold eyebrow.
I know my eyebrow style may look too bold for some people. Maybe that's why i got some ugly comments about it a while ago. But lucky me, i've found some people who like these weird eyebrows and they asked me to make an eyebrow tutorial. Thank you for those who likes my weird brows lol. Here's the tutorial, it's pretty quick and easy. Hope it helps!

What you need:
1. Eyebrow powder or eyeshadow that match your hair color
2. Eye definer brush
3. Eyebrow brush
4. Concealer
5. Concealer brush
6. Eyebrow gel or eyebrow mascara (optional)

Here's the step by step:

1. Always start with clean and groomed brow.
2. Using eyebrow powder/eyeshadow, apply with eye definer brush, outline your brow from the end to the middle part of your brow, hardly touching the front. Draw a wider shape than your natural brow.
3. Fill your brow with the same brush and eyebrow powder/eyeshadow, and then lightly draw a line from the middle to the front of the brow. It doesn't have to be perfect, you can fix it later with concealer.
4. Taking what's left on the brush, lightly brush upward the front of your brow. The front part should be lighter than the middle and end part. 
5. Apply concealer as close to the brow line as possible, then using your concealer brush blend it out. 
6. Brush your brow.
7. It's optional, apply an eyebrow gel or eyebrow mascara to set the brow up.

Voila! Gorgeous bold brows :p

That's it for now, til next post pretties !!
