Hey BeauGorgeous! You guys doesn't have any idea how excited I am to have made it to my next post! yeah, yeah, yeah, call it lame but seems like I have been away for a gazillion years... okay maybe a few days doesn't count as gazillion but life has been very rush lately and you just can't help feeling so overwhelmed and excited over so many things happening at one time...and probably that coffee had something to do with it too... well, it's just that it's been raining, and cold, and you get sleepy but you have to stay awake till midnight to accomplish things and be productive so.... bring in the coffee and more coffee and more... okay shush already!
Anyways... I just want to share with you my go to makeup on a rainy day. And for me nothing beats a gloomy day (yep gloomy but doesn't make me sad really) than to throw in some colors on me face and hop on some puddles in the rain (reminds me to get myself those nice rain boots I saw @ the flea market last week hmmm)....
So moving on already... to prep my face, I have been so in love with the Matte Mousse Foundation by Maybelline. And not just because everyone seems to say so... but it is totally the one foundation that I can rely on these days when it comes to controlling the oil on my face. Well, I think it is also because the weather so so nice and cold so....whatever.... I love it! plus the L'Oreal Base Magique? perfect! perfect! and to conceal dark spots under my eyes, I use the Maybelline Pure Mineral Concealer.
Then I use my all-time favorite go-to (cause I don't have anything else...LOL) products.....
Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free Face Powder
Essence Bronzing Compact Powder
Blush from KMA Cosmetics Face color Palette (re-potted)
On my eyes I use...
- the I love stage eyeshadow primer.
- then to add color on my eyes, I use the colors from the 4U2 Gemstone 4 color eyeshadow no. 10 ice to fire.
x1- apply above the crease
x2- apply on the outer crease and blend in towards the inner corner. And on the lower eyelids.
-then to open and brighten my eyes I add a white cream eyeshadow from the Maybelline Color tattoo collection 05 too Cool
x3 - apply on the middle lid and blend with your fingers.
- I also add a dark eyeshadow (from Natural Collection in the Color Midnight) to add some depth to the outer crease.
x4 - apply on the outer crease and blend.
- I also use the Maybelline Eye liner to line my lids.(no photo)
- and some random mascara that I forgot to photograph...

On my lips I use
- the Sweet Kiss Lip Butter by Oriental Princes
- And apply the lipstick that I got from Mistine in 01 Healthy Pink
And on my brows I use the Brow designer in 02 by Essence. However, I had to retouch so often since this eyebrow pencil doesn't stay on longer... I should have used an eyebrow powder over it.
And the look that I came up with....
