Stripes and A Surprise

I always have a weakness for patterns. I love any patterns from polka dots, plaids, stripes etc. I am sure the list can go on forever. Lately, I've been really addicted to animal prints so I decided to experiment some of my favourite animal prints on my lips. The following lip arts are mostly created with Make Up For Ever Flash Palette. Hope you like it!

 Excuse the lighting of my skin tone because these pictures are taken during different period of the day.

 Aside from animal prints, I have also experiment a new look with a new pattern on my face. I've done a polka dot look before (here) and today I decided to play with stripes look. Let me know what you guys think :)


My take on stripes look. With my wig on, I wasn't able to show you my full eye makeup so I took a picture of my individual eye.
 

I look a little scary here with just an eye, my apologies if my eye scares you.
 What I am wearing:
vest - China
Stripes scarf - :Chocoolate
Stripes top - Old Navy
Shorts - American Eagle
Boots - Nine West
Leggings - Ardene
Rainbow rings - H&M
    








 I have also another surprise for you on my next post, stay tune :)

Thank you all for stopping by and the beautiful comments!

ps. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Aside from over sized sweater being one of the big trend of this season, over sized glasses is also one popular MUST BUY! 

I have been looking for a large square frame glasses for the longest time but they are either too expensive or they do not have the right size that I was looking for. Luckily, I was introduced to Firmoo Global Online Optical Store. Firmoo is one of the world most popular online optical store with over 500,000 fans on facebook !


I like how they have many trendy glasses designs including designer glasses yet they only charge at an extremely affordable prices, the lowest being at $8!!!

The glasses that I got from Firmoo is with out doubt the over sized glasses that I've been wanting to get:

 Aren't this baby beautiful? Their shipping was super fast, it only take two weeks for the package to arrive at my door. As you can see from the picture, it includes a soft glasses bag as well as a hard plastic case. The best part of the package, they also include a mini glasses screw driver! I find that is very thoughtful of them!

Since I will wearing this new baby around for the next couple of while, I decided to do a post about ways to wear makeup with glasses. I come up with three ways that I find look best with glasses and here it is:

Swan


All of your kind comments are like this beautiful sunset to me and I have nothing to say but THANK YOU! 

Enough with the serious talk! I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend because I sure am as you can see from my inactivity in the last few days :b I have brought to you two more tutorials of how to achieve beautiful bright red lips as well as black cherry lips, both colors are one of the biggest fall lip trend. If you are one of my facebook likers,  you have probably seen this but I have also include full details of the tutorial. Enjoy!

 Before you start, please always apply lip balm to moisturize your lips! As you can see from this tutorial, I totally forgot to do so and my lips are dry as potato chips! For better moisturizing effect, I would recommend to apply lip balm the night before as I find my lips are extra moisturize the follow day! A great lip balm that I would recommend is definitely Clinique's superbalm lip treatment.

1. Once you done the lip care step, we can start by using a lip liner (NYX 09 Ruby retractable lip liner) and outline your lips

2. Apply bright red lipstick (Wet n' Wild 909D lipstick) within the areas of your lip outline

3. To make my lips a little plump, I always like to add a little bit of lip gloss in the center of my lips with a lip liner brush. I rarely do lip gloss to my entire lips because I find it looks too sugary and another problem I always encounter is on windy days, my hair love to stick to my glossy lips!

 1. Since I can't find a black cherry lip liner, I used a lip liner brush to outline my lips with the same black cherry lipstick (Wet n' Wild 522A lipstick) instead

2. Apply the black cherry lipstick all over your lips

3. Gloss it up but only at the center of your lips to create the lip plump effect and you're done!

Hope you like my tutorial! Enjoy!


I also brought you a new look of mine. This new look is inspired by my white fur vest. Let me know what you guys think :)

Makeup:
False eyelashes - bought from eBay, repainted my black falsies to a white one with Make Up For Ever Color Cream
 Eyeliner - L'oreal Gel Eyeliner
Silver and rusty gold eyeshadow - Lancome
White feathery - Make Up For Ever Flash Palette


 What I am wearing:
Fur vest - Korea
Dress, gloves and scarf - Gift
Bag - H&M
Shoes - Steve Madden




Hope you like this new look of mine! Thank you thank you thank you so so much for the comments and just stopping by! I cannot express enough appreciation! Have a nice long weekend everyone!

Stronger

"That which does not kill us makes us stronger."
Friedrich Nietzsche

As a blogger, I guess everyone have experienced receiving negative feedback or worst hateful comments at one point or the other. I did receive some "wonderful" comments (not at blogger) lately from people who think they are the make-up competition judges. I get comments from calling me ugly, laughing at my eyebrows and the colored contact lens I am wearing to calling how unprofessional I am at doing makeup. 

So here's my response to them: First of all, I am not in a makeup competition so who gives you the right to judge my makeup! Your comments did hurt me a little but on the other hand they make me stronger and push me farther so I thank you!

Excuse my little emotional side of me. Here's a little wrap up of my looks in different eyeliner.


   
I also brought to you my new fashion look with me in my little black dress. Enjoy!
 
I call this eye makeup: blue moon :)
 Makeup: Sephora Pantone Palette/ Make Up For Ever Flash Palette/ Ebay False Eyelashes/ Coastal Scent 88 Eyeshadow Palette
 

 What I am wearing:
Dress - Thrifted
Clutch - Vintage
bracelet - DIY
Heels - Zara
Gloves - Claire's   
 





 As always, I love all of your comments. It is always great to keep in touch with all of you and for some, very nice to meet you! Have a great evening!
