Inspired Arabian Look

I've always adore Arabian makeups. The eyes are always so vibrant with colour. The mixture of different colours just blend so nicely with one another. Besides, they always have this mysterious look which is so attention seeking, and others eyes are constantly stuck on them.

After much time, I've finally trying this on myself. In a different lighting.I just love those eyes. Eyeliner shapes out the eyes so beautifully. For this look, my playthings are purely MAC pigments and eyeshadow. Intensify the colours by using a wet brush. Deliberately kept my lips nude so that the eyes can get more attention.And for some reason, I have no idea why, I like this picture (above).That's all for now. Need nap before I start my work later on. I can't wait for my annual leave. Wow wee!

Yours truly,
Bianca

Everyone's Doing It


Everyone who owns Urban Decay Primer Potion will definitely do this. Its a well known fact that the packaging is not user friendly. Just when you thought you had already used up your potion because the applicator seems to be getting dry, you got yourself a surprise when you find out that there are tons of it inside left, untouched.

Therefore, today its my turn to do what I should do. Cutting open this little bottle. (Aww, when will Urban Decay arrive to Singapore? The shipping fee is so expensive. Sob.)Bought this 3-in-1 container from Daiso, and without further ado, I gotten everything going.It would be a sin for me to waste this large amount. Fully untouched!Now I'm truly satisfied. =)My next post will be on this cheap looking thing. Now, what exactly is this? I'm beginning to fall in love with it. Stay tune!

Review: Lioele Blooming Shimmer Pearl Base

Oh gosh, I'm so addicted to makeup, which is pretty obvious. Its like written all over my forehead. Trying to update my blog through my hectic schedule. Next week, I will be having my annual leave, which means, I will have tons of time to do review, and play around with colours. Hopefully, I get some assignments too. Anyone need a makeup artist?


Anyway, today I wanna share with you my experience with Lioele Blooming Shimmer Pearl Base. It is known for its waterproof and shining effect. Available in gold and pink, I chose to test the pink base.
Indeed, true to its word, the light reflecting pearl makes your face look all glowy with its shining effect, enhancing your all glamorous look. I especially like the fact that it is able to act as a highlight. However, the con of this product is, it make your face turn oily after awhile. In fact, for mine, it turned oily in less than an hour. Now, I couldn't possibly be blotting my face every 15 minutes. You know what I mean.
What I like: -The base itself is pink, and I'm a big sucker for anything PINK.

- Scent. It has this very sweet and pleasant smell.

- Economical pricing. Everything is so expensive this day, but I'm glad that this is not overpriced.

What I dislike: -The oilyness. Eww... It will be perfect if I was in a cold country. Being in Singapore, the outburst of sweat is not going to be friendly on the skin.

Price: $22 for 15mls

Quality: 3/5

Will I buy it again: Maybe.

The Best Combination

Everyone knows pink and blue goes very well with each other. So here I am, using my favorite colours, and getting this neat look. A look that can be worn for almost any event, because its that simple. =) I especially love the picture below. I like the contrast. For this look, I used Milani runway eyeshadow. And I'm so glad because I'm about to finish collecting my collection of Milani runway. Yeah!My obsession seems never ending. If you have any questions or would like to have a tutorial or maybe a review on product, do drop me a mail at cheryl_bianca@hotmail.com ya? I'll be glad to answer. Shall hear from you soon! Loves!

Review: Covermark Moisture Veil


I was introduced to this brand a year back, with my best friend raving about how good Covermark is and tempting me to get one. Thus, when Covermark Moisture Veil face powder reached my hands, I can't wait to try. Afterall, I've tried different concealer and slap tons of foundation, but they failed to do what it should do- covering up marks.
The 2 pictures above is a comparison made on the different powder I used. The first picture(with brown eyeshadow) was using other brand of powder, accompanied with concealer and foundation. Take a look at the second picture (emerald), its obviously using the product that I'm sharing with you right now. Not only does Covermark Moisture Veil cover my facial mark (this sounds very pun), it also unintentionally made my face glow.

The product itself is soft to touch, and the coverage is awesome. A little goes a long way. I have you know that my skin belongs to the oily category, especially the T-zone, and makeup tends to be gone once those sinful oil glands start producing, but with this product, it definitely make my skin look matte for at least 8 hours.

What I like: -The coverage, of course.
- The texture
- Packaging makes it so convenient to carry around

What I dislike: I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

Price: $55

Would I buy again: You bet! Definitely a big YES!Say Bye to ugly spots and freckles today! =)

Go green with me today!Next post is gonna be a review on my officially most favorite powder. There's only one word to describe it- Goodness! Check back soon. Loves!

Shimmer with black

I received a new baby from my wonderful colleague, Shirley, who gave me a NYC shimmer that she got from oversea. Failed to take a picture of it, but with that, I created a new look.At the inner corner of my eyes, I used NYC shimmer and at the outer corner, black was being used. A dash of pink was dabbed on the inner most of my eyes.

Close up shots:I like the outcome.
