Spring made it's way...for now...in the city, with the dust and heat that follow, of course. But in any case...Longer and warmer days are here ^^.
Today I went on a stroll with a friend in one of our malls and I was very much taken in with their spring add *grins*. I really liked how the model had her make-up done, so I took a picture fast and redid it today for you guys ^^.
Be warned that a lot of blending is in order..and a few colors also....This is because I do not own a few of them...such as a very bright pink shadow...So I had to mix. And also...the pay off isn't the same...but... in any case, I used: light sky blue, a bright pink blusher ( all your make-up items are extremely versatile ), plum, deep mauve, orange, black (to make the colors around the edge darker) yellow and a shimmery white (as a highlight).
Tip:
- Don't over pack your colors on...Add bit by bit. It will reduce fallout and you will be able to control how much color you have.
- Don't take the color very up or too much into the inner corner. I will look over done, taking up too much space on your face. Be elegant!
Also...because of how much I liked my Alverde concealer, I went ahead and brought a foundation and mascara ^^.
The foundation have a very nice coverage, not going thick, feeling heavy, or making your face look like a mask. It is based on minerals, for a mixed and oily complexion. But, don't think it will make your skin dry. It takes care nicely of each and every bit of your skin ^^.
And for me...I have finally found a foundation that matches perfectly my skin color!! I also brought a mascara "Precision" which I like, but it make my lashes look really "natural gifted" like....I'm the girl that kinda likes "spiders" on her eyes ^^;;;;. So it's a somewhat change for me.
