Celebrity Inspired- Priyanka Chopra

Hi loves, 

                Hope you all are doing great. This week i will be doing a celebrity inspired look of priyanka chopra, which was on the cover of Vogue India released in dec 2011. I know that is a late issue but i loved the look and i couldn't resist recreating it. 


I love priyanka to bits, she is an amazing actress and has a wonderful personality. Her looks are always neutral, and almost looks as though she isn't wearing make up. But on the cover of vogue she is wearing a dark black and brown with a rosy nude lip. 


She looks amazing and i hope i could do this look justice. Hope you enjoy..

1. Prime your lids to prevent creasing.


2. Take avon super shock pencil in chocolate melt all over your lids, this would help the matte eye-shadow stick better. 



3. Then taking a flat shader brush take the colours marked with a yellow circle and red circle and apply it on top of chocolate melt, and bring it slightly into your crease. Make sure to blend to avoid a harsh line. 



4. Then take blending brush and pick up the colour marked with a white circle and blend it in circular motions into the outer v and bring it into your crease. Make sure to blend to avoid a harsh line. 


5. keep adding colour to make the outer v deep and dark. 


6. Add a highlighter colour which is marked with the blue circle on to your brow bone.


7. Then take some Vaseline and add it on to the middle of your lids for shine.


8. Line the inner & upper lash line with a black pencil liner.


9. Then i used the colour marked with the yellow circle as a bronzer. 




10. Then for my lip colour i first applied Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipsticks in hooked on pink and then on top i added born with it.  


11. Curl your lashes and apply black mascara to top and bottom lashes.


12. Apply your other make-up as usual.

FOTD- Romantic & Flirty eyes

Hi loves, 


              Hope you all are doing great? For this weeks tutorial i am doing a romantic and flirty look. I created an easy tutorial using pinks and dark brown from the 88 pallet. I am not a huge fan of pink, so i tried to use it in a subtle way. Hope you enjoy..






1. Prime your lids to prevent creasing.




2. Apply Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Strawberry Milk all over your lids, this would help the shadow go on brighter. You can skip this step if you don't have the jumbo pencil.





3. Then taking a flat shader brush take the colours marked with a white circle and apply it on top of strawberry milk, and bring it slightly into your crease. Make sure to blend to avoid a harsh line. 




4. Then take blending brush and pick up the two colours marked with a yellow circle and blend it in circular motions into the outer v and bring it into your crease. Make sure to blend to avoid a harsh line. 


5. keep adding colour depending on how deep and dark you want the look to be


6. Taking a pencil brush apply the colour marked with a orange circle into your inner corner. Blend it out.


7. Add a highlighter colour which is marked with the orange circle on to your brow bone.


8. Line the inner lower & upper lash line with a black pencil liner.


9. Curl your lashes and apply black mascara to top and bottom lashes.


10. Apply your other make-up as usual.

Review Monday- Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick

Hi loves, 


              Hope you all are doing great. For this week i will be reviewing Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipsticks, from my collective haul if you want to check that out click here . I have 3 different lipsticks to review so hope you enjoy..








Price: Rm 22.90 Each


Quantity: 4.2 g


Packaging: The product comes in a metal tube with a translucent square cover.


Fragrance: Floral and yummy :)


What Maybelline Says: 
                                  CRISPER COLOUR from pure pigments 
      CREAMIER FEEL from nourishing honey nectar

My Review:
I have always been in love with all the products maybelline comes up with. And this brand has never let me down so far. And the Colour Sensational Lipsticks is one of them. The product comes in a translucent coloured tube that matches the lipstick inside. These lipsticks are so pigmented and moisturising, the texture to this is creamy and glides on effortlessly. These lipsticks go on glossy and stay on for 3-5 hours, even though the glossiness goes of the tint of the colour stays on for about an hour or so.  






+ 065 Hooked On Pink - I would say this colour is a pinky red with a glossy finish. And this colour is perfect for all the skin tones. I am in love with this colour, i wear this everyday. 
Hooked On Pink

+ 515 Coral Crush- This colour goes on vibrantly, but it is not a neon orange as seen in the tube it is slightly muted kind of like a pinky orange. This goes on glossy as well.

Coral Crush


+ 015 Born With It - This colour is a soft pinky nude with shimmer, This goes on glossy as well, but the shimmers in the lipstick kind of get into the lip lines. If you have darker lips this might look pale and ghostly. But this lipstick is great to use to tone down brighter lipsticks. 

Born With It

In A Nutshell:


Pros:
- Affordable
pigmented 
- moisturising
- creamy


Cons:
- The shimmers in the shimmery shades might get into the lip lines.


I would rate this product 4.5/5 


I would definitely repurchase lipsticks from this line again. Since it is affordable and pigmented and there are 62 shades to choose from.

Review Monday - Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm

Hi Loves,


                Hope you ladies are doing great. Sorry for the delay with the post. This week i will be reviewing Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. 






Price : Rm 18


Quantity: 0.15 oz


Duration Of Use: 2 weeks


Packaging: The product comes in a recyclable plastic tube, which is small and portable to carry around.


Fragrance: Strong peppermint scent


Ingredients: beeswax, coconut oil, sunflower seed oil, peppermint oil, lanolin, tocopherol, rosemary leaf extract, soybean oil, canola oil, limonene.


What Burt Bees says: Give your lips the soothing feeling they deserve. This natural lip balm is loaded with coconut and sunflower oils, rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, to nourish, condition and soften lips. Beeswax seals in hydration. We've even added peppermint oil for a refreshing tingle. 


My Review:


I am addicted to lip balms and i am currently on the hunt for a lip balm that hydrates my lips and lasts long. This product is made of natural ingredients which is great. When i first applied the lip balm it had a strong minty scent and my lips started to tingle and burn, but that settled after a couple of minutes, if you do not like peppermint this product is not for you, since the scent is pretty strong. 


The product goes on thick and waxy. It doesn't have any shine to it, its not matte either. It did hydrate and moisturize my lips but it failed to heal my chapped lips. Although don't have really chapped lips but some days it does get really chapped. Even though the moisture and hydration is great, it does not last long, it probably stayed on for an hour and a half without the the consumption of food or water. 


In A Nutshell:


Pros:


- Affordable
- Hydrates


Cons:


- does not heal chapped lips 
- does not last long


I would rate this product 2.5/5 


I wouldn't repurchase Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm again, since it didn't do much for me.
