Make Up Tutorial : Looks Smokey Green + Blog Award

Happy Belated White Day! :) Finally yesterday was "Valentine's Day for Women" like date here in Korea. My hubby brought me a chocolate, which I ordered him a prior hahaha~ I always do that :P And also we had such a nice evening BBQ meal. I'm so like BBQ :) Actually I spent very nice weekend in general too. I met my friends and a lot of friends of my hubby visited us. Yeah, kind of communicative weekend lol:

And just a random thing. I am so hate nail polishes which are very liquid and sheer consistency. I begin to tremble when necessary to apply 3-4 or more coats just to get a normal color of varnish. Usually in this situation I do not use such a product for a long time, and against waiting until it thicken. What are you doing in this case?

Today I did a smokey sort of look which is very dramatic using greens and browns only. It is pretty simple to do. And I hope you'll get it try :)

To start with I applied The Face Shop waterproof gel eyeliner in Black #01 all over my upper lid as a base for green eye shadow. Also I wanted that outer corner of my eyes looks very sharp lined. So, to get this clean line I put a random card on my face and then applied the black base on. With a big fluffy brush I blended it upwards. It is not gonna looks perfect at first because it's just a base. Don't worry about it.

Than I took a regular flat eye shadow brush and applied Green shade all over the black base and left outer corner uncovered. Also I put this eye shadow little bit under the eyes and all over my tear duct area as well.

With the same flat eye shadow brush I applied matte Brown shade on the rest of my eye lid; again using a random card, just to get that precise clear outer line. And nicely connected two colors together.

With my big flat eye shadow brush I applied matte sheer Green color up to the brow as my brow bone higlighter. And blended everything downwards to soften the look.

Next I took small crease brush and lightly applied bright Green eye shadow all around the Brown and Green colors. Just to give a bit of brightness to this colors. As well as I added some of shimmery White color under the outer V line to make it more nice and clean and also I applied a little bit of the White up to my brow bone.

I lined my waterline with a black pencil, and added some of Brown and Green eye shadows on my lower lash line. Lined upper lid with The Face Shop black liquid eyeliner, curled my eye lashes and applied some of black mascara on. Also I applied The Face Shop XN false eye lashes which is just crossed looking. For my lips I used a neutral/nude lip gloss. And thats it.

Also the other day I've got this pretty blog award from ning * star ThanQ so much! Very appreciate it :)

I really want to do a make-up updates everyday, but I don't have nice and bright ideas any more. Oh my Muse! Please come back! I miss you a lot!

Make Up Tutorial: Cut That Silver+ Blog Award

Today's make-up was absolutely inspired by MakeupGeekTV one of my favourite make-up guru. I saw her last tutorial on you tube it is something about how to make brown eyes pop. And I really liked the combination of colors, which was used. So I decided to do exactly the same color scheme but with a cut the crease technique. I have not done this cutting crease make-up looks for already long enough. 

To start the make-up I primed my eye lid with Shiseido concealer just to get even surface. Next with The Face Shop Crayon Eyeliner in Purple I cut my crease on outer V corner as always I do. Using a stiff small brush.

With the same brush which I used for blend out my Purple pencil I applied VoV Color Song eye shadow in Aqua Violet #7345 all over the base. It is single eye shadow but I put all of them in one clear CD case which is very useful to work with. 

For my main lid base I used VoV Color Song Eye Color in Sugar White #1 cream color pencil. I applied a little bit of that carefully and blended it out with my ring finger. Make sure you didn't smudged the crease area. If you are, just go ahead and put more Aqua Violet color on your crease where you need it.

After that I took regular shader brush and applied gray color by Prorance Sunny Glam Eyeshadow palette SV403 in Crystal Silver all over Sugar White cream color base. And again, don't touch the crease area. Take your time to do this step.

With my Cathy Cat blending brush I applied just a matte Violet color all around the crease area and blended all the colors together without any harsh lines. If you lost some of Aqua Violet eye shadow feel free to add more.

For my brow bone highlight color I applied another matte pink-ish VoV eye shadow and blended it downwards to soften the look. I used all the eye shadow from this palette in that pan and just put in there remnants of VoV shadow for more convenient using.  

I lined my waterline with the same The Face Shop Purple eyeliner and applied the same matte Violet color all over my lower lash line. Lined upper lid with The Face Shop black liquid eyeliner, curled my lashes, applied black Enprani mascara and finally added some fasle lashes by VoV #1.

For lips I used just a natural colored lip gloss. I noticed that I really do like all natural/neutral lip stuff!

Also I've got an award and decided to post it immediately, because I am always forget about things like this.

My Pregnancy 22 Week + Small Haul

Today was the most long-awaited day for the last time! This morning I went to my doctor for regular pregnancy checking. Now I am a 22 weeks, it is little more than 5 months. And it's a baby-boy! The doctor said that he did not see 100% exactly who it is, because the child does not want to show his gender now, but it is absolutely the same situation as in my first pregnancy with my son. I really wanted a baby-girl, but my husband is very satisfied with the results. He was pleased that now he has two sons. This time I got a weird picture of ultra sound. I can barely see what on it. Also I asked about the tape or DVD to record all my ultra sounds on it, but unfortunately they no longer do so. Anyways, this month, I gained weight 3 kg. From this month, I have to do more exercise and walk. As well as I had a heartburn (for 1 week I guess), some time ago, but now it's all gone. I feel fine. 

And now for the beauty part of my update. I did a very small haul today. Just bought a few things for myself but I've got a ton of free samples to try out. I am very exciting about them.

A few days ago I bought Clean & Clear toner just to replace my Skin Food Gold Caviar toner, which I am not finished yet. But it's always good to have replaced product. I got this stuff because recently my face was hard attacked by acnes :S

Another product by The Face Shop which I am so exciting about. Soothing mist for face. Soothing and moisturizing. This can sprays on the face before and after applying make-up. Can't wait to use it as well.

I got a free samples of Natural Whip cleansing foam. Recently I saw a lot of products of this company here and there and very exciting to let them try.

Also I've got for free some BB cream samples. It is Recover BB cream with SPF 25 PA++. I am not sure about the close translation for it but I am very exciting to try it as well. Because I am a huge fun of BB creams.

Samples for free by IOPE Moisture Lasting Softner and Emulsion. It is skin care after 35 I'll be not use it on myself.

Some free samples for hair care. Shampoo, Serum and Repair Hair pack for damage hair. I have damaged hair because I colored and permed them a lot recently. Also I do like this hair line company; especially their shampoo and conditioners are very good.

And on The Face Shop store I got two sheet masks as well. She always give me free sheet masks. How gorgeous it is!

Thats all for now. I was a MIA for visiting and replaying to other beauty bloggers recently. But I miss you all! Hope you all doing well!

Today I played with my nail polishes and tried a new technique by the tutorial I watched on you tube. On that tutorial she explains step-by-step how to get this sort of design, watch it! I really do like how it looks but it is so hard for me and very massy to do at the same time. For this manicure I used The Face Shop Nail Talk Nail Polish in YL 702 (yellow) and RD 301 (red).

Also I played around these blue colors. The design is not so good. Because all the colors I used is kind of similar to each other. May be next time I'll be use just any complimentary colors.

VoV Chamon nail polish in 23 (white) and 39 (blue) and The Face Shop Nail Pleasure Nail Polish in BL 605 (light blue).

Thats all for today! Very tired of this update :P Tag questions took me an hour lol:

Take care! Untill tomorrow!
