Contest Entry: Connie's Smoked Siren

I am so ecstatic to see Connie holding this contest of hers wearing purple eyeshadow. Me being a fan of purple shadows wont let this opportunity pass by creating a similar look as her video tutorial :D

Oh gosh, I probably already have a lot of versions of purple eyeshadows look, but nvm, I'm sure you girls wont feel bored with them, hopefully (keeping my fingers crossed ;))

FOTD w/ Tutorial: Summer Love

Heya girls, I've come up again with another FOTD last weekend. Very simple to recreate this soft look for summer. Suitable for day's outing :D I've been mixing and matching my current palettes a lot till I'm a bit bored and I'm now lemming for MAC's Colour Craft's Mineralize eyeshadow palettes. Sweet stuffs! Must check the products photos out on Temptalia!

Here are the products used:

Eye products

Overall products

I skipped a few steps in those pics, but I hope they're still understandable because I'm gonna explain them in words :P

Apply light shimmery blue e/s from Kate palette all over lid. Next, apply the medium blue e/s again from Kate palette along the upper lashline. Use the shimmery pink e/s from MJ palette over lid up to the eye crease.

Also line the entire lower lashline with the light blue e/s.

Next, use the SilkyGirl's black eyeliner to tight line the entire upper lashline and half of lower lashline.

Now, the overall eye look after applying my favourite MJ Lash Expander Frame Plus mascara.

I also tried on my new pair of Taiwan false lashes (left eye). They look pretty natural to me, but I prefer to use more dramatic ones for FOTDs. I'll definitely show them to you girls when I get those false lashes, hearts again :D

Finally, the overall face look. Another round of posing with my vanities :P Please ignore the messy background, was happily snapping away without noticing it :(

Used MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Blonde from BBR Collection. And use the bronzing powder from ELF Studio Palette to contour my face.
