Neutral Look

Lately, I fell in love with natural looking makeup. I used to wear very heavy eyeshadow colors but since the beginning of summer, I found it's too much for the dry and hot weather. I've grown in love with neutral colors and it probably gonna stick with me for a while. I don't normally wear heavy foundation but I have a bunch of MAC foundation that was given to me and I need to use it up. I'm never a fan of MAC foundation btw. I'd preferred Clinique over MAC because it's more natural looking and not as oily. So my skin was screaming and moaning after I had it on!!! It was horrible because the liquid consistency was too thick. But the pictures turned out ok, which is all that matters in the end. LOL

Here's my look today:
Neutral Makeup

Natural Makeup

On face:
MAC Select SPF15 Foundation in NW20
MAC Studio Finish Face Powder in NC30
MAC Sheertone Shimmer Blush in Peachykeen

Eyes:
MAC eyeshadow in Brown Down
MAC eyeshadow in Espresso (for the outer corner)
Fiberwig Mascara (I'm starting to dislike this thing now...my lashes fall off like crazy when I washed my face...this doesn't happened with other mascara!!!)

Lips:
Clinique lip gloss in Tenderheart

  2. First of all, you look like you're naked in the pictures... hehe~ Nice looking clavicle! :)

    Secondly, you don't look like you're wearing foundation in the picture. You just have good skin. I agree I don't like MAC foundation or any of their foundation products. It seems thick on me.

    Thirdly, you should post a heavy makeup picture and compare that to present neutral look. :) I would love to see it!

    Lastly, there's no website for the blush. Sorry! I bought it at the Japanese market in J-town. The three stories one.

LOL, man lately i have been online shopping more than goin out shopping. lol, maybe next month i will shop for more makeup, cuz i spend like $100 of dollars for makeup this month already...hehe. Anyways, i agree with you on the Mac foundation, they look really nice in pictures but when i use it, i looked really fake outside, so i dont ever use foundation. Mac foundation are so thick and i heard they can kill ur skin.

  14. I also stopped wearing heavy eye makeup because of the summer heat. I usually don't wear MAC foundation either because I find it to be unnatural and heavy but from the pictures, it looks pretty natural on you. Looks great!

  15. The only place they offer the blush is that market that I know of. I'm liking it a lot myself! I've been wearing it everyday this week. I been wearing makeup daily this week which is amazing with this heat and my laziness! I need to get into the routine of wearing makeup so when I sub, it'll go fast because I have a tendency to forgot how to apply. :X Are you going to sub?

  16. Auntie flow hasn't visited me yet... lol~ :P I'm just going through pms. It should be starting this weekend I think. Who knows I have a weird cycle!!! :(

    The reason why people or I should say females who spend time together have it around the same time is because of phermones. ;) Yes, I do remember my biology... hehe~ :P

    Are we blogging buddies?... lol~ :P To be honest, I don't think I have many blogging buddies, but I do consider you one of the closest with Trinh of course. ;) Without you and Trinh, we wouldn't go through the blogroll to find that secret copier... lol~ Even though you did more work than I, because I'm a dum dum lollipop.... lol~ :P

    Subbing isn't bad once you get the hang of it. You should try it and see if teaching is your calling. :)

  17. Hiii! Thanks for visiting my blog! :]

    If you live in California, then you should be able to find the hair powder in more high end salons.

    Otherwise, they sell it online at a lot of different places! Just google search "osis dust it".

    You're such a beauty! Nice skin too. :]

  21. I'm glad you mentioned the Fiberwig mascara! I've been dying to try that out. I wonder what it is in it that is making your lashes fall out...?
