NYX Circe Lipstick - Random photo

Remember how I said that I didn't like the NYX Round lipstick in Circe, well I was playing around with it and I found a way to make it work for me! Just pat the lipstick on, smudge it and put lipgloss on top! :D That photo was taken when I was breaking out like crazy because of stress :P

My sister also just came back from Singapore/Jakarta and she bought me some stuff!
  • MAC Eye Kohl - smolder
  • MAC Eyeshadow - humid
  • MAC brush - #226
  • He's Just Not That Into You (book by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo)
  • Biore Pore Pack BLACK
  • Clean & Clear Oil Control Film (I love this shit)
  • ZARA shoes!!! OMFG! These are some hot as freaking shoes, I will post up photos when I can!
Hope you are all well!

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover Brief Review+ MAC Studio Moisture Fix SPF 15



(Before)

(After 1 swipe)
I bought the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover today because I finished my L'Oreal one and so far, it's been great! I've used it just once today but I think it really does the job with the minimal amount of tugging and pulling on your skin!

What it claims:
"This dual-phase 100% oi-free liquid activates when shaken to gently whisk away even waterproof eye makeup without any tugging, pulling or stinging. Your skin is left feeling clean and fresh with no oily residue. Aloe and cucumber extracts soothe skin."

I have to say that this eye makeup remover does what it claims, although it does leave a little oily residue on your eyes, it still works very nicely, it took me seriously, like 3 swipes to clean my eyes completely, it's awesome! It was cheap as well! From what I remember, it was like $10 or something? Which is a little better because the L'Oreal is like $11 or $12... A little difference I know, but the Neutrogena is better anyway! :)

===========================================


I also got the MAC Studio Moisture Fix SPF 15 because I thought the Moisture Lush was wayyy too moisturizing for my skin, I gave it to my mom instead! :) So far so good... It doesn't leave a greasy feeling after I put it on, like Moisture Lush does!

Smokey look FOTD products + Photos from Saturday night


(some photos from Saturday... BIG night for me... I'm never drinking again... lol)

I totally wasn't expecting people to want to know what products I used for my photo the other day so I decided to just list the stuff that I used... It's actually pretty easy... As for my problems and whatnot... I'm starting to just get over it... I was uber hurt before and I didn't know how to cope very well but now I know that I can just spend time with friends, take it one day at a time and it'll all be a-okay! Thank you so much for all your support, the comments that you guys leave always make me smile and make my day THAT much better :)

Now onto the shit I used... :P
  • Too Faced Shadow Insurace - All over the eye and on the bottom lash line.
  • NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil - Black Bean - Use as black base just on the eyelid. I used to find that this product creased like a mutha when I first started using it but then I just bought some Too Faced Shadow Insurance and used less of the Black Bean and it was okay! I will be buying the MAC Paint Pot in Blackground soon though.
  • NYX Eyeshadow - Black - All over the eyelid. Make sure you blend the edges so that there aren't any harsh lines. I HATE harsh lines lol Also use this to line your lower lash line.
  • NYX Pearl Mania - Charcoal - I used a little of this and patted it on over the black on the inner 3/4.
  • NYX Eyeshadow - Grey - I mixed this up a bit with the black and put it on my crease. BLEND BLEND BLEND! You really want to make sure that there is a gradient of colour, with the darkest closest to the lash line and gradually getting lighter. Use this colour also in the middle of your lash line so that the gradient on the eyelid matches the bottom lash line.
  • MAC Pigment - Provence - Highlight colour.
  • MAC Pigment - Silver fog - Inner tear ducts.
  • MAC Fluidline - Blitz & Glitz - Line the lash line. I use a MAC #210 brush.
  • Sassi False Lashes - #600
  • Chanel black eyeliner - Waterline and tightline.
  • Lancome Virtuose and Lash Blast for mascara - Top and bottom lashes
Face:
  • Philosophy 'The Present' Primer
  • MAC Select Foundation - NC30
  • Napoleon Concealer - Amber
  • MAC Loose Powder - To set everything.
  • Nars Blush - Mata Hari - I use a VERY light hand with this blush, it's so vibrant!
Lips:
  • Malin + Goetz Lip Moisturizer - I LOVE THIS F-ING LIP BALM! I carry it with me everywhere!
  • Napoleon Concealer - Amber - Dab this onto the lips until you get your desired nude shade.
  • Christian Dior - Lip Maximizer
