Simple Eye Makeup and Coral Lip Tutorial

Hey my fellow readers

As promise in my haul post, today i'm gonna show you guys how i do my makeup using this YSL Lipstick i just got.

Love this lipstick so much since it's remind me the look of Cheon Song Yi

But i'm not gonna recreate Cheon Song Yi look

Honestly, i'm not good to recreate people looks

So today i'm just gonna show you how i do it base on what i think best for myself.

xoxo

 

 

Soooo this is the look i create.

Just simple eye makeup to balance the bold coral-ly lipstick

I really like the way this lipstick show on my lips so much ^.^

 

The products i use to achieve this look are 

 

Foundation : Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet in shade B10

Eye : Urban Decay Naked Pallete using only shade Naked and Buck

3CE Creamy Waterproof Eyeliner in Zorro

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

Maybelline Rocket Volume Express Mascara

Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade in Chocolate

Cheek : Clinique Cheek Pop in shade 03 Berry Pop

Lip : YSL Rouge Pur Couture in shade 52 Rosy Coral

 

So for the tutorial i'm just gonna show you guys only the picture how i do the eye look since i think that is the part that need a little bit more than just an explanation.

 

First of course i start with applying my foundation using a beauty blender.

In the look i don't use concelear since i using two layer of this foundation to make it has more coverage.

Then, into the eyes

 

 

 I start with applying Naked (a light brown color) all over the lid, then i take Buck (a medium brown color) using a blending brush, brush Buck into the crease to make it more define.

Then i'm taking my eyeliner and only tightline my eyes.

Tightlining will help make your lashes appear more full and just give a nice settle eyeline without looking too much.

 



 

Next gonna curl those lashes and apply a generous amount of mascara xD.

 

Now for the brow

I'm using my trusty Anastasia dipbrow pomade that really good for humid weather.

Trust me, this brow pomade will not budge whatsoever !

 

Start with lining the bottom line of your brow first to make it really define

Then using the spooley, brush it upward to make it more natural and look like your own brow hair.

Brush over until you feel like it become more natural looking.

Next line the upper line of your brow with what left on your brush then brush over again so the line will not appear unnatural.

After that you can get your natural looking crisp brow xD

( This is the method i find the best to make my brow looks more natural ).

 

And last step just put your blush on the apple of your cheek and slap on the lipstick on your lips

That's it !!!

Quiet simple and quick makeup

 

 

Hope you enjoy my first tutorial

If it's hard to understand feel free to ask me ^.^

♥ June Favorites ♥

Hey guys

I'm back again with another favorites post

I really feel june past really quick this time and now it's already july

How fast time really gone by ><

So before i chatty much more, let's just jump to my favorites for June ♥

 

The Body Shop Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil

I just purchased this cleansing oil in the mid of June

I've been trying to find a makeup cleanser that works better like Bioderma since i can't purchase Bioderma in my hometown (which is a shame since i love Bioderma so much ><)

So i went to Body Shop and found this

I see this before in Amelia Liana Blog and she kinda raved about this so i wanna try it.

At first i was kinda afraid because i have oily skin and this cleanser is basically oil base

But turns out it doing pretty nice on me

It doesn't leave a greasy feeling after using it and most important thing of all, it doesn't break me out 

( i try etude house cleansing oil while back and it break me out a lot)

I really enjoy using this cleansing oil a lot now so i think it is a must to insert it as my june favorite xD

Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade in Chocolate

In the last may favorite post, i was on search for a nice and waterproof + smudgeproof brow product

And i finally found one !

It's the Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade !!!

I freakin love this stuff

It's waterproof and smudgeproof as i want it to be, great product.

The downside? yes it has a downside

It's kinda hard to use if you're not quite familiar with it

You need to be extra careful cause it is so pigmented and if you put too much your brow will look so damn terrible.

A little trick i found work for me the best is to outlining my brow first with the tiniest amount of it in some brow brush

Then i use brow brush to blend it and kinda soften the line i use for outline it xD

Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in no 96 Macaroon

Another revlon product for lip favorite this month

I'm in love with the formulation of this lipstick

It's moisturizing, glide on smoothly on the lips and the color is just perfect for everyday

Totally love this one so much  ♥

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Dim Infusion

God knows how much i love this blush

Ever since i got it, i wear it practically non stop !!!

The color and the result on the cheeks is absolutely gorgeous

Hear lots of compliment to whenever i wear it

Totally a worth buying blush ♥

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer

It's the nicest under eye concealer i ever found

It glides on smoothly, it blends beautifully and it doesn't creasing on me

The best thing of all, it conceal my dark under eye circles perfectly.

Overly in love with this stuff

Too bad that Maybelline Indonesia doesn't produce this one yet since it's kinda expensive if you wanna buy it from online shop >.<

Pond's Pimple Cover and Care Concealer Pen

I really like this stuff so much

It's the nicest concealer i ever found at Indonesia store ever !!!

It conceal and cover the pimple nicely

Eventhough it only has one shade, it matches me very good

At first i thought it's a little bit to dark for me but turns out i was wrong

It's easy to blend, cover nicely and cheap

The best thing i ever found !!! 

So that's it for my June favorites

Hope you enjoy my post
