SIMPLE SNOW WHITE MAKEUP TUTORIAL/ JAPANESE IGARI MAKEUP TUTORIAL

Since Halloween is coming soon, I am just thinking to do another makeup tutorial which is easy to do with three makeup product or 4 makeup products for a quick simple makeup that probably takes 5 minutes.  It took me about 20minutes because I don't have the skills despite being a blogger so you get why I don't use 15 to 20makeup products in a makeup tutorial.

I am actually planning for the Kpop Gain in Carnival MV but then it turns out that I look more like an Asian Snow White since I don't have blonde hair.  This is also a makeup where I try out the Japanese Igari blush.

So here is a simple Snow White makeup tutorial/ Japanese Igari makeup tutorial with just 3 makeup products.

Here are the makeup items needed for this look:
1. a liquid lipstick- Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick in Plum Plum Pidou
2. foundation/makeup base-Clio Kill Cover Liquid Founwear Ampoule Cushion
3. eyebrow pencil- Beige Chuu Hard Finish Eye Brow in Dark Brown 253
4. an hair accessories
5.eyeliner (optional)- I didn't use one
6. cushion puff of the beauty blender (if you are not using cushion)

The products here are optional. I am using the same product for my lips and my blush.  You can use different product but then since I like to keep it simple so I just a sheer pink liquid lipstick that I have.  You can use peach colour which is flattering on most skin tone if pink is not your favour.

The cushion puff is essential for to make the blush natural so if you do not have a cushion puff, a beauty blender will also be okay.  Brushes doesn't really work.

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick

Here is the colour that I use.  I am of a neutral skin tone so this is sheer pink that I use.

1. Apply your base product or foundation.

2. Apply lipstick. Go for the full lips.
3. Draw the brow slightly straight or according to your eyebrow shape.

4. Dot sheer liquid lipstick or tint on the side of the eyes.  Don't dot on the middle of the cheeks because it will look weird.  Make sure to look for product that doesn't dry fast else it will be hard to smudge it around.

5. The using a cushion puff or a beauty blender, pat it on the side of the eyes where the blush is.   Then pat the blush going towards the nose. Don't smear as it will remove all the foundation.

6. You will find that the blush look more natural that way.

This is how it looks from near. It can looks like Chinese Opera look if apply too much or the colour is too red.

REVIEW ON BOURJOIS SOUFFLE DE VELVET LIPSTICK

Lipstick is one of the makeup product that I wear even if I am rushed for time.  I think every women will own at least one lipstick and some have over twenty lipstick at one time.  It is a fashion statement or just to boost confidence looking polished and presentable.

However, I don't usually buy matte lipstick because they usually make my lips dry, cracked and peels which is not sexy to look at.

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick is an exception to the regular drying matte lipstick.

A SEMI-SHEER VEIL OF MATTE COLOUR
Its unique hybrid texture provides vivid sheer colour and up to 10hr hold and a soft, fresh feel on lips.


A FEELING OF SOFTNESS

Souffle de Velvet reconciles colour & comfort. Enriched with moisture protecting agents, its velvety texture provides softness & hydration for up to 10 hours, and is as comfortable to wear as a balm.

A fine, creamy veil blends onto your lips for an imperceptible, bare-feel.

After Rouge Edition Velvet, Bourjois creates Souffle de Velvet, a veil of matte, elegant & discreet lip colour..and so light to wear!

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick in shade 07 Plum Plum Pidou.  The bottle comes in form of a bottle with the doe applicator which is easy to carry around.

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick  comes in form of liquid which upon application has sheer matte tint colour on my lips.  It has velvety soft smooth texture which is really rare for matte lipstick.  I do like the colour which is sheer but bright and vivid on my lips.  It doesn't smell flowery. If you know how unscented things smell, it is something like plasticky smell but the smell disappeared on the lips.

Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick doesn't fade, hydrate the skin for as long as it stay on the lips without any balm provided that you do not eat or drink.  The lipstick is not transfer proof so you will need to apply after eating.  The lipstick doesn't make my lips patchy or leave unsightly marks so I guess it makes removing before eating easy or application after eating easy.

Overall, Bourjois Souffle de velvet Lipstick is a great matte lipstick if you are looking into trying liquid matte lipstick that won't dry the lips and has the effect of tint.

REVIEW ON LAFINE VEGETABLE FOAM CLEANSING

A foam cleanser which has vegetables goodness ingredients and is good for your skin?

Previously, I have tried the Lafine Vegetable Deep Cleansing Cream as the first cleanser and now this Lafine Vegetable Foam Cleansing which is a great addition to my cleansing routine.  While I do agree that cleanser doesn't do anything amazing like healing the skin from acne, using the wrong cleanser can cause irritation on the skin.  Most of the time, not using the suitable cleanser can cause acne, redness and also clogged pores.

That is why many recommend to use proper cleansing products to make sure that the skin is clean but not irritated.  It is not great when you have great serum but a dirty face to it put on.

So, do put effort into choosing and find a suitable cleanser for your skin type because irritation in form of redness and acne can surface from using the wrong cleanser.


So, here is a review on Lafine Vegetable Foam Cleansing =) .

Lafine Vegetable Foam Cleansing

• How to Use
1.Wash your hands clean first and dampen your face
2.Get the cleanser on your hand and make rich foam
3.Gently massage your face with the foam and rinse with lukewarm water

Lafine Vegetable Foam Cleansing

I do like the simple green vegetables packaging in a tube.  It is so much easier to carry a tube than a jar of cleansing products. The tube is 200 ml which is huge for a foam cleanser so it can last me quite some time until I get a new tube of cleanser.

The cleanser has soft foam which is gentle on the skin.  It has some sort of those corn starch smell mixed with vegetables.  The cleansing power is medium. It does remove waterproof makeup but you need to use more than just a pea size.  It does remove other makeup products easily.

The cleanser contains Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract and Ascorbic Acid which can lightly exfoliate the skin of the dead skin cells.  There are many vegetables ingredients in the cleanser such as Catalpa Ovata Bark/Leaf Extract,Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract, carrot, Oenanthe Javanica Extract, Tomato and Parsley extract.

However, if you do check them in the cosdna, you will see some acne triggers but those triggers are not the same as everyone.  One of it is Lauric Acid which is a fatty acid helps with treating viral infections and help with cleansing.  Another is Cocamide DEA, or cocamide diethanolamine which is used as foaming agent.  It is listed as having high irritation.

So, do check the ingredient list that I have provided above for potential triggers because everyone's trigger are different.

I am not sure what is the PH at this moment but I will update it soon when my PH strips arrive.

Overall, a gentle fancy skin cleanser for all skin type.

HARLEY QUINN SUICIDE SQUAD INSPIRED MAKEUP ON ASIAN FACE

Hi,

It has been a long time since I did a makeup tutorial.  I just have to admit that I hardly do one since I am lousy in makeup skills and I just feel bad for showing you a lousy tutorial.

However, here is a simple easy tutorial using just 5 makeup products.  It can be 4 products if you already have a good skin.  Personally, I don't use so many makeup products because I find that it takes more than 3 hours for me to be using 20 makeup products on my face when I don't spend as much effort on my skincare routine.

You might have different opinion than me but I am a believer in skincare products and food.  So, if I am not going to spend 20 skincare products and 3 hours on my face everyday, I won't do the same for my makeup given that my makeup skills is worse than a 3 years old.  hahahaha

So, here is a Harley Quinn Suicidé squad inspired makeup on Asian face.  I have hooded eyelids and Asian features, don't have blonde wig(won't spend on one) and so lazy to wear blue circle lens.  Please do understand that some instructions might not be the same.

 

 

So, here are makeup items needed.  You don't have to use the same thing as I do because there are other makeup products better than what's here. I'm using them because I have them in hand&some I bought cheap.

Makeup products:

Burgundy lipstick-Lakme Absolute matte in Burgundy

blue eyeshadow/ Blue eyeliner-Catrice waterproof eyeliner in 110 Rendez-blue

Black eyeliner-Urban Decay 24/7 in Zero

foundation/bb cushion/concealer- Clio Kill Cover Liquid Founwear Ampoule Cushion

(colour concealer is also the same)primer (optional)- Catalina Geo Color Capsule Makeup Base in violet

There are nicer eyeliner from BBIA or Clio but since I need to smudge them, anything cheap will do.  I don't own any brushes so I am just using my middle finger and the Clio cushion puff to do all the smudge and application.

As for the red eyeshadow, just use the same burgundy lipstick or red blusher if you have one because who buys red eyeshadow and use them for daily wear???

As for face base, look for one tone lighter or you could just mix some really fine powdered up rice powder into your foundation.

You could add mascara or fake eyelashes but I don't because I have lack of skills.

1. Use a primer or concealer to cover dark circles or redness.

2. Then use a makeup base on the face to make the skin look even and flawless. I just use Clio bb cushion since I am lazy.

3. Draw the eyebrow thin and long.

Right eye

5. For right eye, pick up a little product from your burgundy lipstick or pigmented tint.  Apply it on the bottom of the lid, smudge it at the creases to lighten it a bit. Don't extend too much else it will look weird.

6.  Apply a black or dark blue eyeliner as near as possible at the base of the eyelid.  Doesn't matter if it is not prefect since no one is going to notice the full eyeliner if you have hooded eyelids or mono-lids.

Left eye

7. Do the same for your left eye but with a blue eyeshadow or eyeliner. I just draw the blue eyeliners on my fingers and pat it on my eyelids. It looks light in this photo because of lighting.

8. Then draw the eyeliner with a blue eyeliner near the base of eyelids.  I am just using the same Catrice blue eyeliner on my eyelids.

Right

9. Okay, this is a lousy smudge since I am using fingers and just drag it once. Apply a little and use a tiny brush to drag it done.

Left

10. This looks better. Apply a little of blue at the corner and slow drag it down a little.
11. Draw a little heart.
12. Lastly apply a burgundy lipstick.

 

13. Smile crazy. Don't smile like me.  This is too polite to be Harley Quinn.

My blurry look XD

HARLEY QUINN SUICIDE SQUAD INSPIRED MAKEUP

I didn't draw eyeliner at the bottom of my eyes because my eyes type doesn't need it unless you draw the waterline which makes me cry non stop. Overall, this is a simple look that you can whip up in 5minutes for Halloween.  I am sure you can do better than me.  XD

I am hope this is looks okay and hope that you enjoy it even with my lack of makeup skills  =) .

Most products are available at local drugstores or online.

REVIEW ON CATALINA GEO COLOR CAPSULE MAKEUP BASE

There are few colours so do look into the colour suitable for your needs.

Catalina Geo Color Capsule Makeup Base in violet is used to cover yellowish dull skin tone for lively bright skin tone.  The liquid has slight violet tint, light, and skin well into my skin.  The make up base smells really nice of flowery scent.  The smell disappears after I apply other makeup products on top.

I makes the skin looks better than it and provide a soft, smooth canvas for makeup to go onto the skin.  The makeup base does make my makeup stay put, does not cake up or looks dry throughout the day.  Strangely, the eyeshadow does looks better probably because of the tinted violet.  As for clogging level, I will say I don't have any clog throughout the day.

There are many moisturising ingredients such as Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin Squalene and Allantoin in the primer.  There is also some ingredients that one may not like such as mineral oil,paraben and silicone.  So it really depends on your preference and tolerance. Check out the list of ingredients which I have typed on above some pictures to see if there is any triggers for you.

Overall, this is a decent makeup base which is useful especially when you have dry skin or in humid weather that has everything melting off the skin. I can't say much since this is my first makeup base and don't have anything to compare it too.
