FOTD

I got bored awhile ago and I was browsing Instagram and saw Kylie Jenner's account. I think of all the siblings, Kylie has the prettiest face. I love her makeup most especially. It's very simple but it's very seductive. I like how they do her lips. 

I wanted to copy her look but I was really not in the mood to perfectly copy it and I ended up doing this...hahaha :)) 

Anyways...I'll do another one and I'll see to it that it kinda resembles her makeup. I'm actually proud of this makeup because I used my drugstore items here.

Angelina Jolie inspired makeup

I just want to share with you this FOTD. Since Angelina Jolie is all over the news now because of Maleficent, I saw this picture of her and tried to make an inspirational look

This was a recent picture of her during the premier of Maleficent. She's wearing a mauve-y taupe-y kind of look. She has brown hair and I have black. I wanted to re-create the smokey eye effect but I used purple, pink and black shades instead of brown, grey and black. Her lip color is also nude which compliments her over all look, I wanted to make my lips bright and used a bright pink lipstick with a blue undertone.

Monthly Favorites: May Edition

Hello lovely ladies! Yeeeeeep! It's the first day of June...where did the time go? It went by so fast I hardly noticed it. Anyways, it is yet again time for my Monthly favorites (leaning more to beauty products) and I haven't used much cosmetic items that I really really loved except for the things that I will post here.

I only have five beauty products that I've been using mostly for this month. Other products are staples in my stash and I think I don't need to re-post the products that I've previously posted.

1. RCMA Foundation Palette from Digital Traincase - I've been on the search for a very very good foundation. I love my Sephora foundation but I'm running out of it already because I've been using it constantly. I came across Digital Traincase - one of the most trusted online shops in the Philippines; and I saw that they were carrying the RCMA Foundation Palette. I will do a separate review of this palette in the coming entries because it deserves a spot in my blog. These babies are highly pigmented and when you wear it, it feels like skin. So it's a thumbs up for me. I was supposed to use this on a make-up gig this May for a wedding and do the makeup of one of my friends but the ETA date didn't reach the target day. Anyways, I'm overly in-love with this palette. At first, i didn't know how to use it. I thought that the foundation was to creamy and I was using the wrong shade for my skin tone but I found the perfect shade for me and I've been using it ever since.It is a good palette for make-up artists because of the quality and the reasonable price. Get yours at Digital Traincase :)

2. Sephora Desert Sunset Palette - This palette was actually a gift from my sister last Christmas and it was only now that I played with the palette. It is not as pigmented as the Urban Decay eyeshadows and it often creases but it is workable with a primer. I actually used this on one of my FOTD which is still in the draft section of my blog.

3. Anastasia Beverlyhills Dipbrow Pomade in Chocolate - I have a separate entry which you can click here. I love this product. It replaced all the products that I use for my eyebrow. I heard that it is already sold-out in the US and that they are releasing new shades because some are complaining that the shade range is not as wide.

4. The Balm Time Balm Face Primer - This is a silicone based face primer and I like mixing it with my Sephora CC Cream. I've been using this for the whole month of May and surprisingly, it worked for me. Not much creasing but I needed to re-touch on my T-Zone area.

5. MAC Playland Collection lipstick in Happy-Go-Lucky - super love this lipstick. I don't know with you guys but I like using bright lipsticks specially this Summer. It is the epitome color (I don't know how to describe it well haha) for my Summer 2014. It is vibrant and it makes me happy. Love the color. It is limited edition and I am happy that I was able to purchase it.

What were your Favorites for the month of May? 

My current favorite product: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade

I've always been intrigued by the power of what they say the "holy grail" of eyebrow products. I've searched for this product for quite sometime now and I found 2 online sellers who both had them on-hand and managed to get a taste of it.

True to its word...this is really the legitimate products of all products for the eyebrows.

This shade is in Chocolate. I also bought one in Auburn because I wasn't sure which shade to get. 

I did an extensive research on this because I don't want to waste my money on a product which I know will not work. A lot of people atest that this is the best eyebrow product in the market. 

This is the list of ingredients of the product:

And it claims to be:

I've been using different kinds of eyebrow products from Eye brow pencil to eye brow gel and eye brow powder. I needed all these stuff to get a brow fix. The Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade does everything - surprisingly! It replaced all the products mentioned above. 

I wasn't able to buy the number 12 brush from Anastasia Beverly Hills because I didn't find any online seller who had it on-hand. I had to rely on my spoolie and my defined angled brush liner. 

The product claims that it works in humid weather and it will not fade nor budge. I tested it myself and I can say it really works. I mean from where I am right now, this place is really really really hot and I am surprised that it didn't fade at all. 

The product is also highly pigmented. A little goes a long way. I thought that the product was too small but I only needed one swipe and that's it. 

This is my before and after picture. I love the effect of the product on my eyebrow. 

I bought the color Chocolate and Auburn because I wasn't sure of my color but the one I'm using here is chocolate.

All I can say is that the hype is really true and I love this product.
