FOTD: Simply Pretty
Hi dears!
It was the first day of work this 2016. I honestly didn't want to go to work yet as I am still enjoying the long hours of sleep and the late night series watching, as well as playing beloved Playstation games on my laptop. But adult life is calling and I gotta do what needs to be done. Haha!
Anyway, I decided to keep it simple. Unlike most people, I always go for colorful, bold looks, so it's quite a different look if you see me going out with a very simple face. So here's my simply pretty look of the day:
I kept it simple by using light and natural colors. I also went with mostly mineral makeup because it feels lighter on skin. Most of the mineral makeup I used are from Ellana Mineral Cosmetics:
Dermalogica Skin Perfect Primer
Too Faced Better Than Sex MascaraKoji Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner in Deep Black
Holika Holika Wonder Drawing Brow Mascara
Quite a handful for a simple look, eh? Haha!
Here's a closeup of my eye.
I did not use the usual shimmery or metallic colors... just nude shades and a fierce eyeliner! ;)
The highlight of this look is probably how glowing my face looks whenever I use Ellana's concealer/foundation product. I have acne and dark pimple scars that I try to hide and this product gives that coverage, but still keeps my face looking natural! My shade before was Smile but my skin got lighter during the rainy season and I had to use a lighter shade, which is Radiant.
The contour and highlighter also did the trick for a more radiant finish. Just look at that glow on my cheek!
Excuse me for that crazy eye right there. Haha!
But yeah, sometimes it's fun to go peachy simple, but I'm not giving up all the lovely, sparkly colors just yet! I like creating different makeup looks everyday and this simple one is just one of them. ;)
What look do you usually wear to work?
Cheers,
DAWN

EOTD: Deep Teal and Smokey Topaz
Hey dearies!
I'm so excited for Christmas. I love this holiday because I love getting stuff for my friends. I have this joy and excitement to find that "perfect" gift for friends. It may be a running joke or something sentimental but my goal is that it has to be something my friends would like. And also, if I have to be honest, I also like unwrapping gifts. :P
Another reason I love this season is I'm always in the mood to create different makeup looks. I like wearing bold lipsticks, sparkly eyeshadows, greens, golds, reds, and all! Even though I wear these on ordinary days, there's a different joy to it when it's during this season.
Here's an EOTD I wore just a few days ago...
And below are the items used:
Essence Stay All Day Long Lasting Eyeshadow in Coppy Right
Urban Decay Perversion Mascara
Dior Backstage Eye Prime
More photos of the EOTD below:
I like the green and gold blending. It may seem dark but it looks sort of toned down when I have my eyes open.
The green is a nice pop of color and the gold brightens up the look.
So what do you think of this EOTD?
Cheers,
DAWN

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

EOTD: Purply Bronzed and Smokey
Hey everyone,
It's getting hotter and hotter in the Philippines right now because it's summer so I'll be going for lighter colors for my face. But first, I want to do a colorful look one last time that's more of a spring look (though we don't really have spring here).
I just want to wear this fuchsia lipstick from Rimmel very badly. Haha! And so, I paired it with an equally striking eye makeup that is still fit for work. :P
These are the products I used for this EOTD:
I used gold and coppery from inner corner up to the mid area of my eye lids then went with purples at the outer corners of my eyes.
The look is pretty easy to do. I just added a wing liner for a more fierce look to pair with my sort of but not really leather jacket (it's pretty cold in the office which is a YAY for me during summer).
So what do you think of this eye makeup? :)
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.
NYX Full Coverage Concealer in a Jar in Beige
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: Cashmere and Stones
Hello dears!
I can't get enough of my newest eyeshadow palette—the Lorac Mega PRO palette. I've been using it since I bought it last November. I think I've only used a different eyeshadow twice since then. Haha!
Anyway, I'm sharing a look I made a few days ago before I went to work!
I made it simple but I still made my eye makeup a little more eye-catching than the rest.
If you're wondering why the title is such, I used the colors Cashmere and Stone from the Lorac Mega PRO palette. Check out the makeup I used for this look below.
Makeup used:
Lorac Mega PRO Palette
Ellana Pressed Mineral Blush Duo in Light Roast/Butter Rum Coffee
Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Pressed Mineral Blush Duo in Obsession/Fulfillment
Snoe What's Up Brow! Water Resistant Eyebrow Gel Corrector
Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Sheer Velvet Mineral Finishing Powder
Ellana Mineral Cosmetics Smile Cover It Up Mineral Powder Concealer
Too Cool For School Eye Design Box Eye Makeup Multi Kit
LORAC Cobra Mascara
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Pink in The Afternoon
(Not in pic)
The Body Shop All-In-One InstaBlur
Below are closeup pics of my eye makeup.
I think it gives a romantic vibe especially partnered with my wavy curls!
So what do you think of this look? Would you wear this when you're going to work too? :)
Cheers,
DAWN
