Long Hiatus!! May Updates and Work FOTDs

How are you lovelies? I've been out for a while, and I even forgot my blogger password!

Thanks God I've recovered it, after 1234567x attempts. I've been pretty busy lately balancing my time with my work, and with my new family. However I do enjoy being busy coz I've been idle for almost 2 years.It's nice to get back on track, put my make up and heels on, meet new people, and I do miss challenges.Though I left the house already glammed up, my work station has still been like this before starting the shift.

Bag: XOXO Shiny Black Vinyl Carved Hearts Bag

Makeups: Mac Heatherette Compact that contains my favorite powder.

 I'm loving Mac's Russian Red for work. They're giving me compliments for it.

Both male and female co-workers were telling me that I rock the red lips,

and it matches my haircolor so well. Since I believe them, I always wear it.

 

I've had different FOTDs depending on my mood...

I wear bold red lipstick matched with cat eyes if I feel relaxed or If I get enough sleep.

Other than that I'm fine with a pinky coral lippie or I'm in for a

faux glow look. I have to fake that glow and conceal those eyebags.. haha.

My all time favorite scent from Victoria's Secret Garden 

"Pear Glace"

I had it since high school as my signature scent, and I'm still keeping it and it really reminds me of  the old times. Nostalgic indeed.

I also frequently bump into my male bestbud that I've known since I was seven years old. We even go to work and go home together.

for my FOTD here I'm using Revlon Colorstay Foundation,

It was a co-incident when we both found out we're wearing blue collared tees.

We had our selfie when our shift ended. He was laughing at my eyeshadow coz it's blue.

I always look funny for him, I don't know.. he always makes fun of me and laugh..

and when he laughs, it's the funniest laugh ever!

For my next blog post it's going to be really long and less pictures coz I'll be expressing my own opinion regarding "copycats" well it doesn't just apply to me. You'll find out soon.

I'm doing it for someone as well. 

I'll update you lovelies more often, and maybe do and recreate crazy makeup looks again.

Til next time! ^_^

Inspired Look: 2ne1's CL and Kat Von D

I did an inspired look of both icons that I love but not on myself. There are times that I want to apply makeup on my face but the camera and my face itself were not in the mood, and I couldn't do it well. Sigh..

I asked my two cousins if I can paint their face for a day. First look is inspired by 2ne1's baddest female and their Leader CL. The photo is from their photo shoot from the famous designer Jeremy Scott and the inspired look for my cousin Shane.

  

I couldn't remember some of the stuffs I used coz as far as I remember we did this point and

shoot thing around August or September of last year, but what I precisely remember is that there's supposed to be a lip tattoo very much similar to CL's, but when I applied it on Shane's lower lip it looked pretty bad, the horizontal lines didn't go well and looked too big, 

so I used a white eyeliner, white eyeshadow and black gel liner instead.

For Kim I tried to recreate and be inspired by what Kat Von D looked at 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. I've always been wanting to do a makeup look like hers but I failed to do so..Fortunately it looked good on my cousin, more importantly, her signature tattoo, the stars on her left temple.

I'll be posting more inspired looks soon from my favorite Kat Von D!!!

I love this Mi Vida Loca look and I'll be using 78 Color Block Palette.

Purr by Katy Perry Inspired Eyes and Future Cosmetics Business Update

So a few days ago I posted my nails inspired by my Purr bottle, and now I'll be posting my Purr perfume inspired eyes, using my 78 Color Block Palette from my most awaited (or is it just me? lol) cosmetic line.. I'm getting more and more impatient.. Everything is settled now, but I still have to work on the logo. I need a good printing shop, all I can find are lame shitty shops who are too expensive but can't get any of my demands right.

So here's the look, most of the colors are basically pink blue and purple only.

This is the palette that I used and I'm so in-love with this one. I think I should have every palette that my future store will offer, coz I myself is addicted to it. It's the 78 Color Block palette. I'm naming my cosmetics line as Sugar Skull Cosmetics.

The palette is so pigmented. Too bright indeed. It's a mixture of matte and shimmer eye shadows. There are lip creams that are opaque, powder blushes and contouring powders.

Color pops out more under white base, easily blendable by fingers, but it is less messy if we use a flat eyeshadow brush!

What makes me more excited is that I sent a message to my favorite artist Callowlily, I asked her if she can do a portrait for my store. I asked for price quotations and mode of payments... She sent me a personal message.

I'M FREEEEAAAAKKIINNNG EXCITEEEEED CAN YOUUU EVEN TELLLLLL??!!

 

Now my main problem is I don't have paypal, so I might ask for a help from friends.

She's the artist behind these wonderful artworks that I really really love.

She also made the logos for these cosmetic lines:

Kupcake Kutie Kosmetics

  

Bitch-Slap! Cosmetics

Ruthless Cosmetics 

and accessory lines Sugar Mafia

 Torture Couture

 

Seeing her artworks makes me wanna puke rainbows. She's such a good artist, and I'm so excited for my own lil business. I didn't know that establishing something although it's small could be this hard.
