How to - Brown Blues Glam
Hey guys! Long time, no chat! Sending out my sorry, but it has been a hectic period for me...exams, work, some big plans for the next year of school...^^ having a lot going on! Also, my Bday passed and I want to thank everybody that wished me all the best! Thank you once more!
Today I have a simple, easy to do makeup, but I for one find it extremely versatile and usable for both elegant and casual styles. I used only around 4 colors for the eyes, but some you can even skip if you don't like the idea *smiles*!
I applied in this order:
Eyelid: navy blue
Crease: light gray (to blend out the blue)
Outer corner and going into the crease: medium brown
Lower lashline (to accent the eyes) : soft, light brown
Highlight, inner corner and under the brow: shimmery white
On the eyelid I also used a blue pencil and added some lashes to make it more dramatic. The face is done as I usually do...
Tip:
- Blend, blend, blend and blend! Colors are better shown when there is a gradual fade to them!
- Use lighter formulas, but with a SPF! Brighter days came and you need an extra boost to protect your skin!
What I used:
Face:
* Alverde Mineral Make-up Foundation, shade 01 Naturelle;
* Alverde Mineral Camouflage Powder, shade Sand;
* Farmasi, Happy Face powder, shade 03;
* Farmasi, Tender Blush On, shade 169;
* Miss Sporty, Bronzing Powder, shade Sun Kissed.
Eyes:
* Sephora Pallet (blues and greens -navy blue- + browns -shimmery white-);
* Maybelline quad, shade Chocolate Mousse (medium brown and light brown);
* Dior pallet, sorry I don't know the name of the pallet or that of the colors (light gray);
* Sephora Collections Pencile, shade white;
* Alverde Precision Mascara.
Lips:
* Bourjois, Effet 3D Les nudes, shade 35 Nude egeric.
Wishing you an easy and sunny end of the week!

Spring breeze - Spring Make-up + Review
Hey guys! Hope you are all well!
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.
What I used:
Face:
* Alverde Mineral Make-up Foundation, shade 01 Naturelle;
* Alverde Mineral Camouflage Powder, shade Sand;
* Farmasi, Happy Face powder, shade 03;
* Farmasi, Tender Blush On, shade 169;
* Miss Sporty, Bronzing Powder, shade Sun Kissed.
Eyes:
* Sephora Pallete, pinks and purples (plum, mauve) + whites and blacks (black, shimmery white);
* Profusion Pallete, nr. 06 (light blue, orange);
* Seventeen Mono Eyeshadow, shade Gold;
* Sephora Pencil, shade white;
* Alverde Precision Mascara.
Lips:
* Farmasi, shade 12.
I do hope you enjoy it! Have an easy week!
