How Much Is My Face Worth?
Some weird things that you may find in my routine(s):
1) Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you, yes, I use two eyebrow mascaras/gels. The purpose of eyebrow gels/mascaras are suppose to colour in your hairs so it blends in with the colour you have filled in. For me, Lavshuca is too brown and ELF doesn't always lighten my eyebrows enough depending if I was more heavy handed that day. Using the Lavshuca over the ELF one gives me the colour I want after I filling in my eyebrows. :)
2) I use a pencil eyeliner underneath a gel eyeliner or liquid eyeliner. Being a monolid, it speeds up the process of lining my eyes because I get the thickness I want and then I seal it with gel or liquid eyeliner for longevity.
3) The NYX eyeshadow palette isn't actually used to its full potential. I don't wear eyeshadow on a regular basis....I only use the darkest shade in the palette to fill in my eyebrows.
4) I don't use the foundation brush to apply foundation - I dip it into powder to set my under eye concealer. I find that the shape of the foundation brush fits perfectly underneath the eyes. Tap, tap and you're done!
5) No lip products shown cause I'm too darn lazy to reapply any makeup throughout the day. I do use chapstick, but that's usually part of my night time routine so I wake up with nice moisturized soft lips and don't need it during the day (unless my lips are really dehydrated and flakey).

hehe thanks! :)
DeleteOh, you wear Pink Passion daily? Nice to know :) I actually bought a whole bunch of Daiso lashes but never found them to work for me - they were really uber-curled and hard to put on nicely :\ I was disappointed with the first pair so I just gave up on them, though I went overboard and bought like 6-8 pairs lol. Interesting to see the products that comprise your regular routine - the totals may be high, but at least you get plenty of value from the cost-per-wear :)
ReplyDeleteI love Pink Passion! A light sweep gives me a really nice complexion. I had the same problem as well with Daiso lashes, I only found these particular cross-hair lashes to work decent on me for a natural kind of look. :P
DeleteDaiso... Such a great cheaper things to get LOL
ReplyDeleteNice one :p
