I was just asking the beau what I should call a look that I wore for his dad's birthday dinner last Wednesday. I told him the look leaned towards a simple one, but one that will look like a little effort was put in to make the whole look come together. And, he suggested Simple Effort. So I shall call it Simple Effort (tenkssss babe!!!!)!
Without further ado, here are ze pictures!
Face/Base:
↬ The Body Shop Instablur primer.
↬ Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation.
↬ Garnier light BB eye roll-on.
↬ Catrice Cosmetics Prime and Fine powder.
Brows:
↬ BH Cosmetics Flawless Brow Trio in Medium.
↬ BH Cosmetics Flawless Brow Trio in Medium.
I used Wax 1 to tame my brows and put them little fly-aways in place and proceeded to use Powder 2 to fill in visible gaps.↬ Anastasia Beverly Hills tinted brow gel in Chocolate to set.
Eyes:
↬ Essence Metal Glam eyeshadow in 05 Chocolate Jewellery.
I used my ring finger to apply this over my lids and took a dabbed a little of Powder 2 (from the Flawless Brow Trio palette above) on the outer corners of the lid to create a little dimension so the eye area won't look too flat.
↬ Yves Saint Laurent Babydoll mascara.
↬ Catrice Cosmetics liquid liner in Dating Joe Black.
Lips:
↬ Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm in Provocateur.
The whole look took me about ten minutes so if you are in a rush to get ready, this one is for you! It's super wearable and suitable for any event, a date, a birthday dinner, or even a wedding dinner (which happens to pop up quite a lot in Brunei). Feel free to switch up the look to make it even more dramatic, depending on your liking, with chiseled cheeks, false eyelashes, thicker winged liner and a bolder lip color ---- in which there will be a blog post dedicated to that soon!
That's all for now! Thank you for reading and please leave a comment down below if you have any questions! Have a great week ahead of youuu.
