[HowTo] I'm Back! Tune/Namie-inspired Basic Face

So, I'm back!
It's been over a month since my last post and I've missed blogging so much!
So this post is actually inspired by 2 gorgeous people... First Tune from Bloggang/Jeban... And Amuro Namie!


Its going to be a super basic look.. It doesn't even involve complicated eyeliners.. ^^

So we start with the best foundation in the world.. Ellana Mineral Foundation in Hazelnut Latte... ^^

This limited edition Body Shop Kabuki brush thingamajig (i forgot the actual name of this brush, i'm sorry) is super perfect at applying mineral foundation...

So next is cheek makeup!
I'm using Attenir ... It's a face powder, highlighter and contour colour in 1 pan...
Cheaper and more basic version of the Maquillage Face Creator...^^ Japanese too.. I got this off Ebay from Andy..

I actually only use the contour for this look. And I actually barely use the face powder that comes with this as I'm not a face powder person.. It really doesn't agree with me.. It sort of clumps when my skin gets oily... It's really not nice >,<;

So I use this blush brush that I love love love...
I only apply the contour on the outer half of my cheek...

On to the blush... I'm using this Excel brush by ... Noevir, I think.. anywhoo.. It's super cheap Japanese drugstore makeup that I got from Andy as well off Ebay.. It's a really cute blush... 4 different shades that work together to give you a multi-faceted cheek... Super fine shimmers won't ever  make you look like a disco ball ^^

So I apply this blush to the inner half of my cheek...
My right eye still looks swollen.. It's weird nowadays coz of the heat.. my right eyelid is super dry and peeling.. Thus making my fold look super thick compared to the other one.


Finished cheek look... and me looking like I have jaundice...


Moving on to the eye makeup.. I'm using Blue Coral from Lunasol...

I'm really in love with Lunasol forever and ever....

I only used the bottom 2 shades.. the gold and the bronze...

So first, with a fluffy brush.. get the gold and put it on the inner half of the upper eyelid...


make sure you apply a good amount... and work this shimmer on..


Next apply the bronze on the outer half of the eyelid...
Make sure to blend it with the gold.. blending it in...


If you noticed I only really used 1 brush... of course.. It's super duper basic.. Hehehe... It's a super nice and cheap Etude House brush...

Next, just quickly apply the bronze shadow on the entire lower lid...

I didn't include pics of putting mascara and lightening my eyebrows since y'all have your own way of doing it. ^^

Next is the last step! Lips!

I'm still so much in love with Paul & Joe lipsticks... So i'm using #20.  I think Paul & Joe makes the best nude lipsticks there is... It totally beats my Lavshuca mini lipstick. 


I'm actually tempted to get some other Paul & Joe lip stuff... I'm just preventing myself from driving th Rustan's Makati... It's an evil place...

I really like how flattering their nude lipsticks are... And how moisturizing they are. I didn't even have to apply any lipgloss on top of it. It made my lips look healthy.. ^^


Finished faces.. With flash and without...

Super duper basic face that I like...

That's it for now!

Hope to post again soon ^^
