FOTD : Christmas Red

Hello loves!

Gonna share the makeup I wore during Christmas day.

It's not fancy or glamorous. It's actually one of the usual looks I wore, but I used products that are either new or haven't shared in the blog before.

I wore a vibrant, matte red lippie paired with nude eyeshadows and a bold winged liner. I added some shimmery neutral colors to add some glow on my face. 

So here are the products I used:

Here you'll see the products I used for my face.

You might be wondering why you're seeing too many foundations there. I actually mix the Lancome and TCFS to get the right shade (the Lancome one is too dark and I'm trying to finish it), while the Estee Lauder has the best coverage among my foundations, which I use around my jaw area where I most of my acne scars are at. I'm lazy to put concealer on each scar so I just spread the foundation there. Haha! :P

Above photo shows the products I used for my eyes and brows. I used my new Celeteque DermoCosmetics Eyeshadow Palette here and the finish is pretty good. A closeup of my eyes will be shown shortly. ;)

And to add colors for my cheeks and lips, I used the products above. The star of the look is my Ellana Cosmetics Lip in Luxe in Love is True! This is my current go-to matte red lipstick. :D

Anyway, I can put the list of products sometime soon. For now, you can comment below if you have questions. Haha!

So here's a closeup of the EOTD:

Neutral shades and a bold winged eyeliner to compliment the bold and vibrant red shade of my lips.

Here's how I looked a few seconds after i finished my makeup. 

 Most of the items I used are matte—my lipstick and eyeshadows. I even add powder on my face to keep it matte. I added some highlighter to add a youthful glow as you can see on the photos!

And that's my FOTD!

What makeup did you wear during Christmas day?

Cheers,

FOTD : A Happy 26 Year Old Me!

Hey loves

It's my birthday! YAYYYY!!!

I'll be celebrating with loved ones in a couple of hours so the moment I finished doing my makeup, I grabbed my cam and took pictures so I can share with you the look I have right now. :P

So this is what I currently look like.

I chose some of my favorite makeup for today. Here they are...

I'll update the post with the names of every product when I get home later.

As for the eyes, I made a simple nude-mauve combination.

And of course, my favorite winged eyeliner look is there!

 I also used my favorite lipstick, MAC Ruby Woo. My mom always tell us to wear red on our birthdays because it's a celebration. I dunno what culture that's from... is it Chinese or Filipino? Anyway, it's good that my lippie looks awesome with my blouse!

  

 So that's all for now. Gonna go spend the day with the friends and family! Wooot! Maybe I'll blog about my birthday celebrations in a few days. :)

Have a great day, guys! Love ya!

Cheers,

DAWN

FOTD: Merlot

Hey guys!

Sharing another FOTD with you all. :D

I was in a mood to go a little dark for the day but still something I can wear to work. I ended up using shades that are close to the color of red wine.

That's why I named this look "Merlot" and I also used an eyeshadow shade named Merlot in my LORAC Mega Pro Palette. :P

These are the products I used.

Lorac Mega PRO Palette

The Body Shop All-In-One InstaBlur

The Body Shop All-In-One Instablur Eye

Shiseido Sheer and Perfect Foundation

Avon Totally Kissable Lipstick in Deep Orchid

Snoe What's Up Brow! Water Resistant Eyebrow Gel Corrector

Too Cool For School Eye Design Box Eye Makeup Multi Kit
LORAC Cobra Mascara

Yves Saint Laurent Pure Chromatics Wet & Dry Eye Shadows in No. 7

 T'estimo Blush in PK-18 

Ben Nye Banana Powder

Holika Holika Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner in Pink Topaz

Happy Skin Eye Need A Miracle Concealer

NYX Full Coverage Concealer in a Jar in Beige

Too Faced Shadow Insurance Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer

The key parts of this makeup look are the eyes and lips. I concentrated the wine colors on those parts.

For the eyes, I mixed warm pinks, wine red, and dark brown.

A nice winged liner can add some sexiness to the already sexy color.

I also added a light pink shade under the lower lash line to contrast the dark shadows and liner.

A beautiful deep lippie is the star of this look. I just love this eye-catching shade from Avon although it has a tendency to bleed. 

So that's my look! If you have questions regarding this FOTD, comment them below! :)

Cheers,

DAWN

FOTD: Chocolate Cranberry in the Morning

Hello loves!

I was in the mood to wear dark colors today. And since it is the fall season in some parts of the world (lol), maybe I can get away with it even if I'll just be going to the office.

And this is how I look today. I wore a mulberry colored lip that looks chocolate brown when applied thickly. I paired it with brown eyeshadow and a winged liner.

These are the products I used for this FOTD:

If you're interested to know what brands they are and what shade they are, please comment them below. I'm currently in the office right now so I can't check it right away. Sorry! :P

I think the makeup looked nice with my maroon-colored blouse from Forever21 and also my current NOTD which is Sparkling Maroon from Girlstuff.

So what do you think of my FOTD? :)

Cheers,

DAWN

FOTD : Purple Skies

Hey darlings!

Hope you're all safe and dry. The typhoon Glenda did a lot of damage in the metro and caused blackouts around majority of Luzon. We didn't have electricity for 7 hours yesterday and 12 hours today.

Today's weather was much, much better. It's just a little cloudy and some rain every now and then. Work was suspended today so I was stuck at home where there was no electricity. My family decided to go out for lunch and do some groceries to escape boredom and the heat inside our house. 

So yeah, I have to put on makeup inside our dark house. I only have one window inside my room that is almost blocked by buildings so I don't really have much light while I was doing my makeup. But even if we have this dark, gloomy weather, that doesn't mean our makeup has to be like that too...

So I decided to go with bright and fun colors! Weeeeee~!

These are the makeup products I used for the look.

The highlight of the look is the eye makeup.

(Sorry for the mascara mess)

I mixed white, purple, and blue from my Make Up For Ever Eyeshadow Palette.

The eyeshadows are matte but I used a shimmery liner at the lower eyelid.

And then I went with a glossy, Hot Pink lips and a warm pink blush.

So what do you think of this look? Would you wear this eye makeup as well... errr... while shopping for groceries? LOL

Cheers,
DAWN

FOTD : Light... Eggplant (?)

Hey dears!

So sorry for the title but I just can't think of a good name for this look. I wanted to use my Peripera lipstick but I haven't planned the rest of the makeup I'll be using so I just went with whatever palette my hand touched when I reached for one in my drawer. Honestly, I'm bad with giving titles on any of my works (all my artworks are mostly called "untitled" LOL) and if you check my NOTDs, FOTDs, or EOTDs, their names aren't any good either. They're probably too literal or very bad descriptions of the looks. Haha!

So for this FOTD, my very bad description of the look is that the colors I used are like the colors of an eggplant but a few shades lighter! Haha! *bad dum tss*

Errr... anyway, here's the list of makeup I used:

BAVIPHAT MAGIC GIRLS PLUS BB CREAM #1

Nature Republic Collagen HD Foundation Essence

BEN NYE BANANA LUXURY POWDER

NARS LAGUNA

SNOE WHAT'S UP BROW! WATER RESISTANT EYEBROW GEL CORRECTOR

MAKE UP FOR EVER TECHNICOLOR PALETTE

TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL GEL LINER

HOLIKA HOLIKA MAGIC POLE MASCARA

KANEBO T'ESTIMO BLUSH IN PK-18

PERIPERA MY COLOR LIPS IN NO. 9 PINK PLUM

 I just wanted to make my eye makeup in the warm side since my lipstick is purple and cool-toned. I wanted something with a pop of color. Good thing the palette I got is the Technicolor Palette from MUFE so a lot of colors were present. The warmest was the yellow one and next was the green so I combined both.

I do think the eye makeup suits the lippie, doesn't it?

That all for now. Hopefully I get better with finding names for my looks. Haha!

Cheers,

DAWN
