Deck the Halls look

The holiday seasons are coming up and i thought i would do a christmas look. I just started with a simple red, added a green and then hints of gold. It just screams christmas don't you think? I did this look backwards though. Usually i would start from the inner lid first, but i did the crease first and then built my way into the inner crease.

Primer: Elf eyeshadow primer
Colour base: Make up forever flash palette in Red 017 and leaf green 008
Inner lid color: ELF studio eyeshadow palette--> Golden color on the left hand side of the palette
Middle lid color: ELF studio eyeshadow palette----> tree green on left hand side; shown in the picture
Crease color: ELF studio 100 eyeshadow palette--> red color from bottom right; shown in the picture
Tear duct highlight: Same color as inner crease color
Gold accents: Make up forever flash palette in Gold 004
Eyeliner: Elf essentials liquid eyeliner in black
Curler: Daiso sliver curler
Mascara: L'oreal fiber false lashes

Hope you guys like it :D

Sunglasses from Forever 21

I'm always out and about to find the next cheap and stylish item. What did I find this time eh? Antique looking see through green plastic framed sunglasses. I've been looking for something where the legs aren't right in the middle. Wow i can't explain what I'm talking about. XD Just look for yourself.These were about $7. I usually buy brand name sunglasses but I caved into buying this. Although there is a big big difference with quality, I do get a kick out of these as "disposable fashion."

Im back :D

Hey guys, Im finally back. I got caught up with school and everything but now i am on a break. :) So i thought it would be fun to review a crap lot of mascaras, i don't know why but i just got a sudden urge to buy shit load of mascaras at Wal mart. So for the next few blog entries, you will see lots of drugstore mascaras so stay tune.

Lost in purple space Look

Main color palette

Simple nude look

I have been watching a lot of Keeping up with the Kardashians and I always notice that the Kardashian sisters have a very nude, clean and simply eye make up but somewhat sultry still without being overpowering. So I came up with something like this... Yes i know that this isn't a sultry look, but the Kardashians inspire me to me much more clean, nude eye look with long lashes and liner. Hope you guys like it =3

Collective haul

Ok So I didn't have a lot of time the past 3 months to upload anything, but the buying NEVER STOPS. >=D So here's the collective haul from the past three months, litterally all from elf. Yes that is how much I love elf. So that's what I've been basically up to for the past three months. The Christmas break is coming up, so expect lots of reviews and other stuff =). Cheers~

Work at School theater

I was hoping to do something really bright and bold, but I didn't really have the chance to because no one's play had a over the top character. Obviously, these pictures aren't me. XD So I don't have pictures of all the make up looks I did, but essentially these are samples of my work. I think this picture came out better then I thought! The lighting is beautiful. This eye look was inspired by the space because I started out with this beautiful, dark navy pigment and then I just go with the flow.This is my friend, Steffi, who has me do her make up for a lot of things. This was one of my "jobs". Her character was a drunk girl who was calling her friend from a club. The picture doesn't do her justice, but I wanted a full face shot for once.

A really simple, gold and brown look for my girl here who's character was an agent. I didn't have enough time to take a better picture but her black liner was smoked out so that it would give a more sexy look.

Sigh...the more I look at it, the more pretty it gets. So jealous of my friend Esther here, look at those naturally thick lashes!

So that was a small snip-it of what I had to do for three days straight. It was quite a pain to have to wash all my brushes and sanitize my whole makeup kit, but hard work is the fun of it. To see your work after, and see them on stage knowing that you did that, that's its own reward. People think I'm stupid for doing it for free, but I think its just fun. My friend wants me to do it professionally, but i know what I want in life and this is just a hobby. So till next time, peace out =)

ELF Limited Edition Dramatic False Eye Lashes

You know your fearless when you can wear these on the streets. Yes this are totally intense, but no I'm not going to wear these on the streets. I bought these for fun only, and a few pictures of course! I have always admire those cool and funky lashes but I never wanted to shell out $20 for a pair. So when elf announce these awesome lashes for $3, I knew I had to jump on the chance. So here we have some close up pictures.

Just to tell you guys, these are limited edition so if you want to get them you should hurry before them are gone!

The view of the back...lots of words and I don't really wanna read it. Yes i'm lazy.... Pretty picture of the eye though! The werid thing that suprises me is that the box says its from the sugarkiss line that was disconintued last year, but i never saw these before. I know they're new, but why sugarkiss line?Dramatic length false eyelashes- Purple If you look at them in person, when the light hits the lashes. the reflect kind of a metalic sheen which is quite interesting.
Dramatic length false eyelashes Neon Pink
Dramatic Full False Eyelashes black/ brown
Dramatic Full False Eyelashes Teal Blue
So overall these are quite fun to play with, but they aren't the best quality.

Conclusion:
-price: B ($3 each)
-packaging: B
-product quality: B-
-Overall quality: B
-Buy again? No because I rarely will wear these on the street anyways..

New ELF cosmetics stuff!! YEY

So I don't know if you guys know, but I just checked the elf website and on facebook and theres more new products! AHHH~~ SO EXCITING...bad news is i just ordered something yesterday. Gosh Elf never lets me catch up to them eh?

So first things first, if you become a fan on facebook of ELF cosmetics, you always get the inside scoop on whats happening and what are the "coming soon". Just now I logged into my facebook account and saw this...

I kinda started to freak out! I mean i'm a big sucker for cream eyeshadows. They are my biggest weakness next to bronzer and blush. So then I started to think, if they release these intot he market, has the tinted moisterizers come out yet? YES THEY HAVE!! OMG!!. Im a big fan of their ELF studio pressed powders so i kind of want the liquid foundation too. BTW if you haven't seen my other posts of elf's coming soon stuff, they are also coming out with new concealer palettes and cream blushses all in the studio line. I also hear about some mist thing coming soon but i haven't actually seen the pictures for it. If i do, i'll definitely let you guys know.The cream eyeshadows to me look exactly the same thing as their studio cream eyeliner. All elf studio stuff are $3 unless stated otherwise. They come in Candlelight (looks exactly like Ivory cream eyeliner--> a simmery white color), Dawn (Light bronzey brown; reminds me of the color Sin from urban decay), Bronze (a typical bronze color) and Eggplant (dark lilac color). Another new item is the ELF studo matte eyeshadow which reminds me of NYX chrome eyeshadows just by the image and the packaging. Comes in Pearl (white), Muted Mauve (light pink), Mint (light green), Burnt Brown (looks like a lilac color?), Smoke (light grey), Nude, Chesnut (coconut brown color), Brick, Baked Berry ( light lilac color again?), and Charcoal (black).
I know this isn't complety new but ELF also released the Endless Eye pro Eyeshadow palette that has 100 colors ($10) and a 32 ($5) colors ones. I did buy the 100 color one so I'll be doing a review on those very soon. They are getting into their limited edition fest mood eh? Here is the Classic 15 piece mini collection but with sparkles. Its kinda pretty i must admit but I'm not paying $15 for this since i have almost everything in the collection. ELF studio line's new Body glow, its some powder thing to add highlight to your body or something. Iunno watever, this one doesn't really interest me. Its $6 and i don't really think this is something to write home about.

Hmm...this seems to one one of the top three new products that people can't stop talking about. Its their new ELF studio make up mist and set which is some what like a MAC Fix+. It claims to help keep your make up stay in place and contains Aloe, Green Tea, Cucumber and Vitamins A, C & E. $3 bucks, i'll check it out =)

Now this is the product that I have been waiting for a long long time. As I wrote up above, i'm a fan of their face powders and I really need liquid foundation type of stuff because my Skin Food BB cream just isn't going to cut it anymore. This comes in Porecelain, Beige, Nude, Sand, Almond, Mocha and Espresso. These are $3 each. It also contains spf 20 so that is a nice plus.When I saw this picture on the ELF facebook fan page, I started to freak out too!! I mean dudeee nail polishes for one dollar, AND they dry faster then my Opi ones? Dayum. And they have very nice colors too. These new ones for the holidays aren't matte colors like the regular colors, they have lots of glitter.
Picture above from left to right: Twinkle, Giltter Glam, Golden Goddess, Party Purple, Metal Madness

Next new product is the Elf studio 11 piece glitter Brush collection. These are the regular studio line brushes but with glitter handles. Elf is getting all glammed up for this season huh?

Another addition to the Elf studio line brush family, they introduced us to the angled contour brush for eyeshadow.

OMG ELF studio stippling brush for only $3?? FINALLY!! If they all works out when I get my hands on it and use it, it can be my h.g for LIFEE.

They also had the studio 2-in-one sponge applicators and lip gloss doe foot, but those are kinda boring so i won't show you those. If you wanna check out more of ELF's stuff, go to www.elfcosmetics.com
