HELLO KITTY

FOTD: MAC HELLO KITTY

Hello guys! I hope you all had a great weekend!

As promised, I am here sharing the look I came up with using my newly acquired MAC Hello Kitty make up.



On the next 2 photos, my bf and Sam were trying to make me laugh whilst I was taking the photos. Mean pair!!!









For my eye make up, I wore Hello Kitty Too Dolly (as pictured above)
Step 1: Primed my eyelids using Lemon Aid by Benefit
Step 2: Applied 1 all over my upper eyelids (starting from browbones down to the creases.
Step 2: Applied 2 on my lower eyelids to just over my creases... blend.
Step 3: Applied 3 just above my creases starting from the inner corners outwards... blend
Step 4: Applied 4 starting from the outer corners on and just above my creases inwards... blend
Step 5: Applied 4 on my lower lash lines concentrating from the outer corners... inwards
Step 6: Applied Clinique eye liner along my upper lash lines
Step 7: Applied Clarins eye liner on my water line
Step 8: Curled my eyelashes using my Giorgio Armani eyelash curlers

For the rest of this make up, I used the following:

Now, the question is:

As you could probably imagine, I have been pampering myself with my new La Mer Skin regime and I'm loving every minute of it!

I thought I'd give you an update by posting an FOTD. I know someone has requested that I post a photo of me without make up but it is never going to happen :P

Anyway, photos below were taken a week after I've started my Creme De La Mer skin care regime.

NO-BUY-MODE

>> NO BUY MODE SWITCHING... ON!!!>>

Hah! I'm coming to my senses and decided to raise my no-buy-mode flag up! The stuff I'm posting here are bought before I switched my no-buy-mode on before you think that I'm kidding myself ha ha ha!

Anyway, I've been extremely busy with work that I wasn't able to update my blog site regularly and because of that, my stuff have been left on the corner of my bedroom untouched for a while. It wasn't until yesterday that I eventually had the time to re-organize my stuff and unpack my last delivery.

I thought I'd share with you my latest purchases... Let me emphasize that I acquired these items before my no-buy-mode was raised ;)


It was the first time I shopped at ASOS and only because they were doing 75% discount sale


2 cute tops with my very own Dainty Doll make up by Nicola Roberts and Jelly Pong Pong... Yey!

Cute top...



Another cute top!



My Dainty Doll make up... Cute packaging! I love them!

Lovely neutral colours

This is chilli infused lipgloss and stings a bit when I apply it but it goes after a while and leaves that minty feeling on my lips. I love that it melts on my lips giving me a natural (nudish) shimmer. Doesn't feel sticky nor heavy on my lips... Absolutely love it!

I was a bit apprehensive about trying this concealer as Nicola Roberts (off Girls Aloud) aimed her line of make up for those who have pale skin and that is also the reason why I gave her foundation a miss. However, this concealer has got natural shade that it just melt on my skin but giving a good coverage.

I love the eyeshadow base and the colur of the e/s is really stunning!

The swatches

Cute packaging... Sooo girly!


I think I'd be using this for contouring but I'll need tips from Jheng or anyone of you :) I'd like to learn how to shape my button nose :(



My Clarins little something

Pure Melt Cleansing Gel with Marula Oil (claims to have vitamin C 4x more than an orange has) and a couple of my favourite waterproof eye pencils I use to shape my eyebrows

I love this eye pencil as it has a great quality smudge brush,which I find helpful when smudging eyeliners (when creating smokey eyes) and shaping my eyebrows

My other make up items I can't live without... Clinique Poweder Foundation and Pressed Poweder. I blend them together after applying my liquid foundation. Gives me a great coverage and finish




Been using this since 1995 and I can't imagine a life without it ;)
I thought I'd try this product and I really love it. I can't wear any lippies now without this as a base :)
Great packaging, huh!


Just a few necessities
What about you? Are you on no-buy mode at the moment? How are you getting on with it. Any tips you'd like to share? Please do :)
