It's been a long time since I did an
EOTD. This should be my first
FOTD, Face of the day. I'm going to include a "before and after" foundation picture just to show how much I love
everyday minerals. Foundation.
Today's eye makeup is Pink and Purple.
Products Used (Eyes)*
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil - Yogurt, Cottage Cheese, Iced Mocha
*Everyday Minerals Face Color - Champagne
*
NYX Single Eyeshadow -
WildFlower*
L'oreal HIP Metallic Shadow Duo - Sculpted
*Indelible Gel Liner -
Tanzanite*Indelible Gel Liner = Black Out
*CoverGirl Lash Blast Waterproof Mascara
First, I applied Two face Shadow Insurance all over my eyelid and lower lash line
Then, I applied
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Cottage cheese on the inner corners of my eyes;
IcedMocha on the outer 3rd of my eyelid and Yogurt in the middle.
This is what it looks like. The Jumbo Pencils intensifies my eyeshadow colors better than the Shadow insurance alone.
Next, I applied
NYX Single Eyeshadow in
WildFlower in inner half of my eyelid and the Pink shade from the
L'oreal Sculpted duo on the outer half.
Finally, I applied Everyday Minerals Champagne on the inner corners as a highlight. Cottage Cheese does a fantastic job holding eyeshadow in that area. My inner
highlights always disappear after a short while but with cottage cheese as a base it lasts all day.
Apply The darker purple shade in the
Lo'real hip sculpted duo on the outer V;slightly into the crease and on the outer half of my lower lash line.
Finish with eyeliner, Black out on top and
tanzanite at the bottom.

Before I post my Final Picture on how the how the
whole look looks like. Here's my
horrifying Before and After foundation picture.
Products Used (Face)* Everyday Minerals Mint Concealer (to correct redness)
* Everyday Minerals
Peach Corrector +Pearl Sunlight (for
undereye circles)
*
Earthern Glow Minerals Concealer in
Cornnie (for
everything else)
* Everyday Minerals Pressed Powder in Golden Medium
*
Maybelline Studio Mousse Blush in 02 Peach Satin
*Everyday Minerals Light Peach Face Color (as highlight)
*
TKB Trading my own lend of Zinc Oxide Silica
Microspheres and Mica for Finishing Powder.
This lightens my foundation a little because Golden Medium is a little too dark.
First picture: bare moisturized face. I am having a case of breakout cos I've been sleeping late watching dramas and dvds :S
2nd Picture: With concealers.
3rd Picture: Full face with foundation, blush highlight and contour. 
Face Of the DAY!
Another picture.
Now you all know why I love makeup :D
Makeup makes a HUGE difference! I didn't even have to mask my face with powder. EDM is my favourite face product brand ever. I never liked makeup as much before I found Everyday Minerals because of my picky skin. Even High end makeup does not give me the kind of finish that EDM does. Even though EDM does not last the whole day and can rub off during the day unlike commercial makeup, my skin became a lot better after making the switch to mineral makeup. My face is not oily anymore, it's the best makeup I can wear for my dehydrated and sensitive skin.
This is how
it looks when I'm back home 6 hours later. The eyeshadow is
actually very pink, I think this picture shows the pink better.

The reason why i have been missing in action is because my camera's memory card is not with me, so i cant take any pictures. My mom took it to use and without the card i can only take 2 pics at a time, so it's pretty irritating.
I have a couple of mini hauls and a handful of reviews to do but they are not up here yet because pictures taken wiht my handphone is just, horrible. To keep this blog alive, I've decided to scare everyone with a FOTD.
I'm really not used to taking pics this way, please mind the awkward picture angels :). I hope the quality is not too poor.
The first two pictures seem to wash out the colors. The last pic shows the colours better.
I didn't even use concealer Revlon Color stay indeed has amazing coverage, even after i added moisturiser and Eyeko cream to it. *thumbs up!*
Products used
Face
* Revlon Color Stay mixed with Eyeko 3 in 1 cream untinted. (My original color stay shade is Sand Beige, But i've added oxides to it so that it matches my color better)
* NYX Mosaic Blush in Peachy
* Silica Microspheres frm TKB Trading
Eyes
* Too Faced Shadow Insurance (I will do a comparison btw this and UDPP and TKB's primer)
*NYX Single Eyeshadow in Luster
*NYX Single Eyeshadow in Vanilla Sky (highlight)
*TKB pigment in Sage Green
*TKB pigment in Cyprus Green
*L'oreal HIP duo in GunMetal (the darker shade in the crease)
* CoverGirl LashBlast Waterproof mascara in Very Black
Lips (not shown in picture)
*Egyptian Magic (as a lipbalm)
*NYX Jumbo Lip Pencil in Almond
*NYX

Products Used-
L'oreal Hip Metallic Duo in
GunMetal(Lighter Color all over lid, Darker color on the Crease and outer 1/3)
-
TKB Trading
Lotsa Lime mica
(inner 1/3 of lid and on inner corners)
- Majorca
Majorlica 15x Lash expander (mascara)
This is a
very easy, lime green smokey look. I
didn't apply eyeliner because I did this look so i can put up a Post and I wasn't really going to go out. I also actually wanted to test out the
L'oreal Hip Duo that I got. I ordered quite a few of those duos but through different sprees. I'll post up pics of them once i receive all my order.
So far, I think the
L'oreal Duos are really pigmented, creamy and easy to apply.

This is a look I wore on
Friday but only updating it now because I came back late at night and had to work.
1. So I started by priming my eyes with Urban Decay Primer Potion. Prime the Lower lid also
I needed something that can hold my eyeshadow for at least 8 hours.
2 . I applied
-NYX's Jumbo pencil in Black bean on the outer half of my eyelid
- NYX's Jumbo eye pencil in Cottage cheese on my inner lids.
I only applied a little and then blend on my eyelid. Too thick a layer will crease up my eyeshadow. But These jumbo pencils really help to make the eyeshadow colors pop.
I don't wear this on their own. I can only wear them on top of UDPP because they crease BADLY on me on their own.
3. Apply Gold eyeshadow on the 2/3 of lids.
I used a half half mix of
TKB Tradings's Gold Fine Mica + Brilliant Gold Mica
4.
- Apply dark grey eyeshadow on the outer eyelids.
- Apply Black eyeshadow on the outer V. or the crease to define the eyes better so it looks more 3D. ( I used
TKB Trading's Black Oxide)
- Smudge black
eyeshadow on the lower lids.
5. I applied a but more of
TKB's Brilliant Gold eyeshadow on my inner corners.
- I applied Indelible Gel Liner in "Black Out" on my upper lash line.
- Finally, Curl Lashes and Apply mascara ( I'm using CoverGirl's Lash Blast in Very black waterproof)
This is the finished look. PLEASE Don't mind the horrible complexion. I was in a hurry to go out, so this picture is taken 10 hours after putting make up on. my foundation pretty much faded But you see the UDPP is still holding my eyeshadow really well.
My skin looks horrible here, but the eyeshadow is the topic here!
In case any1 is interested. I am wearing GEO Color Contacts in Angel Green.
