Makeup Tutorial: Everyday makeup for school
posted by
Personal


I am by no means a beauty blogger, but I love slapping on makeup so I figured that I’d share how I do my everyday look. This is my (almost) everyday makeup, which I feel is versatile enough for most occasions! I will list the products used at the end of the tutorial. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any!

(Also, I can’t believe I am putting up a makeup-less picture here. I’m not even going to bother whining about how horrible I look to fish for compliments… Just admire my dark circles and lack of eyebrows, everyone.)

I like to define my eyebags because I feel that it softens my look somehow…also, if you can’t hide them, might as well use them to your advantage :P

Eyes: Urban Decay Naked Palette in Sin (1 + 4), Half-Baked (5), Smog (2 + 3), and Dark Horse (6+7) ✕ Maybelline mascara ✕ Etude House eyebrow pencil ✕ Heavy Rotation eyeliner.
Face: Maybelline BB cream as base ✕ Chanel Perfection Lumiere foundation ✕ NARS Orgasm blush
Contour: Sleek Makeup contour kit in Light
Lips: Chanel Rouge Orage

I’m also wearing Acuvue Define Dailies in natural shine!

Outfit Post: Piccadilly Circus [Black Outfit Ideas]

Featured, Outfits


If you haven’t seen us posting about it all over Twitter already, Arissa and I met up last week!! We were lucky that it was still warm when she was here. The day after she left, the temperature dropped to near freezing. We would have been too busy being wrapped up to take outfit shots then!

Outfit breakdown:

  • Coat: Zara
  • Dress (worn as top): H&M
  • Skirt: All Saints
  • Leather jacket: All Saints
  • Bag: Mulberry
  • Shoes: Taobao
  • Accessories: Miu Miu, Tiffany

Headed to Liberty for tea afterwards. Have I mentioned that I love scones? I love scones. Nothing else matters.

I think Pierre Hermé has spoiled me. Other macarons (even Ladurée) doesn’t really measure up now.

What’s in my closet: Predator
posted by
Personal


I have spammed these boots all over Twitter a while ago, so sorry if you have to see it again. I have been lusting after these boots ever since I saw them in On Pedder and Net-a-porter, but I never actually thought I’d buy them. They are like stripper boots on steroids – there’s something predatory about them, even. It is odd how my closet is becoming more basic, yet my footwear gets more and more flamboyant.

Makeup Essentials

I always find myself snapping pictures of my makeup collection when I’ve nothing else to photograph. I blame it on all the makeup packaging being so pretty! The makeup I have in this picture is not representative of my collection at all – I have at least 3 more types of foundation and a couple dozen other eyeshadows and lipsticks. To say that I’m a hoarder is an understatement. These are just the products I love and use on a near daily basis!

  • Urban Decay Naked palette. A staple in most makeup collections, I’d say. The Urban Decay Naked 2 palette is coming out on 5th Feburary here in the UK, and I’m so eager to snap one up (despite me having more than enough eyeshadows already…). It’s a cooler palette compared to the original one though, so I’d have to swatch it before taking the plunge.
  • Chanel Perfection Lumiere. I believed I have talked about it in a previous post, but I shall reiterate that it is really great for people with medium to oily skin!
  • Maybelline mascara. I really love Maybelline’s formulas, and the price tag doesn’t hurt your wallet as well.
  • Heavy Rotation eyeliner. Eyeliner is an integral part of my makeup routine. Gel liners are great, but I can’t be bothered to fuss with the brush. This eyeliner is a god sent.
  • Etude House eyebrow pencil. Automatic eyebrow pencils are the best, I really can’t be bothered with sharpening pencils either.
  • Canmake concealer.  It really lives up to its hype. It stays put and provides great coverage, without appearing cakey. I like that it doesn’t take on a greyish hue when use on my undereye circles, like some other products do.
  • NARS Orgasm. Another staple that lives up to the hype.
  • Sleek Makeup Contour kit: I really love sleek makeup. It’s one of the best drugstore brands I’ve come across!
  • Chanel Rouge Orage. It’s sort of a dirty, muted berry. Chanel lipsticks are rather pricey, but the quality more than justifies the price. It stays put all day without being too drying, or feathering.
  • Rose Salve. While it’s essentially scented vaseline, I’m a sucker for it anyway.
  • ZA two-way powder. Not exactly the best product I’ve used, but it does a decent job for how little it costs.

Lastly, a happy Chinese New Year to everyone! It’s the first time I’m not with my family for this festive season

Outfit Post: Black Cherry [Black Outfit Ideas]

A rather overdue post once again, I’m afraid. This outfit post was taken in Singapore, but I’m already back in London! These pictures make me long for days where I can wear short skirts again without having to layer tights underneath.

Wearing the All Saints Datya jacket. This is the first time I’ve spent so much on a single article of clothing, but I rationalised it by thinking of it as an “investment piece”. It’s simple, well-made, and I can match it with just about anything! I’ve noticed that my closet consists of more and more basics these days. I hope that doesn’t mean I’ve became more boring – it’s just so much easier to throw things together when you are rushing to classes.

Outfit breakdown:

  • Jacket: All Saints
  • Top: ASOS
  • Skirt: m)phosis
  • Shoes: Charles & Keith
