Silver Edge.

Hi errbadeh! Last Saturday was a fun-filled one indeed. The beau and I were invited to a wedding reception at Empire. For the dinner, I decided to use some BH Cosmetics' products that I have never used yet - the 6 color & blush palette, Eyes On The 70s palette and the rose gold brush set. Without further ado, here are ze pictures!





Eyes:

↬ Using Bobbi Brown black gel liner and angled liner brush #1, I first mapped out the wing shape that I would like.
↬ Applied black eyeshadow #3 according to the winged shape drawn previously, only covering the outer third of eyelid.
↬ Applied silver eyeshadow #1 across the entire lid where it's left empty without the black eyeshadow.
↬ Applied light purple eyeshadow #2 on the centre of lid to create a little dimension so the whole eyelook won't look too monochromatic.
↬ Used tapered blending brush #3 to blend everything altogether.



Base/Face:


↬  Used Benefit POREfessional's primer as base.
↬  Applied Tarte Amazonian clay foundation and Tarte maracuja creaseless concealer under my eyes - classic foundation brush #1.
↬  Powdered T-Zone and under eyes with powder 2 - powder brush #3.
↬  Bronzed cheeks with powder 3 and blush powder 4 - angled brush #2.


↬ Used Anastasia Beverly Hills' dipbrow pomade to fill in and shape brows.
↬ ACurled lashes and coated them with Essence's Lashes Go Wild mascara.
↬ Tightlined only upper lash line using 3 Concept Eyes waterproof eyeliner [skipped using the basic eyeliner because I didn't want the eyelook to look too top-heavy].


Lips:

↬ NYX's soft matte lip cream in Copenhagen.




With this look, I started off with doing my eyes first because if I happen to make any mistakes and if any cleaning up is required, I can do so without worrying that I would mess up my foundation/base. Also, since I was working with a darker eyeshadow, I was worried that there might be fallouts.

I guess that's all for now! Thanks for reading and have great week ahead of you.

Selfish Silver Smoke

Hello pretty earthlings! I attended a dinner last Saturday, the 12th. I initially wanted to use the Naked 1 palette because it's my all time favourite, but I saw my unopened-still-in-its-plastic-bag NudeTude palette so I think I might as well make use of it!

From the title of this post, it needs no pointing-out that I made this eye look on the one shade that caught my eye, Selfish, a silvery taupe shade. Hence it is the main color of this look. The products I used are as below :D


Face/Base


  • Benefit the POREfessional primer
  • Yves Saint Lauret Le Teint Touche Éclat foundation
  • NYX Above & Beyond Coverage concealer
  • Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder
  • theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer as a highlighter
  • theBalm Betty-Lou Manizer as a bronzer
  • Sleek Blush by 3 in pink lemonade

Eyes






      Shadows:
  • Applied Selfish from the inner corners to the middle of eyelid, leaving the outer corner bare
  • Lightly tapped brush onto Serious and put it on the outer crease of eyelid, blending inwards together with Selfish
  • Used my ring finger to apply a little hint of Stand-offish on the middle of eyelid to give that extra pop and dimension so the entire eye look won't look too flat
      Rest of the eye area:
  • Bobbi Brown long-wear gel eyeliner in Black Ink
  • Shu Eumura eyelash curler
  • Revlon Lash Potion mascara
  • Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Ebony

Lips




  • NYX soft matte lip cream in Prague

Brushes


  • Foundation - Real Techniques buffing brush
  • Concealer - Real Techniques domed shadow brush
  • Powder - Real Techniques multitask brush
  • Eyeshadows - Real Techniques base shadow brush
  • Eyeliner - Real Techniques fine liner brush
  • Bronzer - Real Techniques contour brush

Final look!




I really liked how everything turned out in the end, nothing too fancy and yet nothing too..simple. I hope you had a great weekend and here's to another one!
