A little bit of Pinup

Sometimes one just wants to give an everyday look a little spice to make things a bit more exciting than the usual stuff. So I take on the Pinup look.

I'm just gonna give a short summarization of how to achieve this look. This is based on how I put my makeup but I'm just an amateur MUA though.

For some reason this picture turned out very pink. lol

These are the items I used:

Pro Flawless Nichido Liquid Foundation

Maybelline Clear Smooth Powder Foundation

e.l.f. Contouring Blush and Bronzing Powder

Etude House Eyebrow Pencil

Etude House Eyelash Curler

Maybelline Magnum Volum Express

Ever Bilena Eyeliner Pencil (better with liquid if you don't want it to smudge)

Careline White Translucent powder (highlight the eyebrows)

Urban Decay Potion Primer

Nivea Lipcare Strawberry (I like to put this on before the red lipstick)

Ever Bilena Red Lipstick

• Start with layering on your foundation.
• Brush on your Powder foundation, make sure all is covered.
• Countour the jawline, temple and nose bridge (this is to make your face appear smaller)
• Add the primer to your eyelids (so it can dry before adding anything else)
• Add eyeliner and follow the edge of your eyelids.
• Curl your eyelashes and add on the mascara. (x3, wait for each layer to dry before adding the others)
• Add a nude colored eyeshadow.
• Draw your eyebrows and fill in the spaces and brush them afterwards. Use a clear mascara to keep the strands at bay.
• Use a lipcare like for example Nivea and then add the lipstick so your lips stay moisturized. 

 

 

Voila Pin up look! :)

 

❤ Happy Valentines day to everyone! ❤

For this Valentines, I thought of coming with looks and makeup you can do for your special date. Accidentally, I'm doing this with "Kiss the girl" from Little Mermaid as my soundtrack. lol I'm no makeup artist, so I can't give you a tutorial but just the overall look.

Below I have the all natural look. We all know guys like the no-makeup look. So in this picture I used foundation, pressed powder, tons of mascara, pencil eyeliner, eyebrow liner and some blush on the cheeks to add color. To add to the look I took two hairpins so my hair would stay away from the face to give a romantic girly look. I am currently in love with bedhaid hair so I left the waves as they are.

Here's another look that deals more with eye shadow. For the hair style, it is a messy top knot and with two strands of hair at the sides. If it's not messy, just grab the sides of your head and pull your hair a bit. That'll do.

Front look.

A closer look on the eyeshadow.

I used Urban Decay as eye primer and I'm surprised at how "alive" my eyeshadow became. Will give a review on this next time.

Now, spread love to your fellow mates!

Happy Valentines! :)
