This look in particular, for me, is actually pretty wearable. I'd wear it in public if I had the chance, or during a special occasion. It's actually quite surprising, in a pleasant way, to realize that pink looks good on me too. I used to think that red is the only lipcolor that looks okay on me and peach tones are the only good blushes on my cheeks. I don't know, what do you think about the look I did? Does the pink look okay on me?
Moving on, this spring look is for Chyix2's contest. I had fun with this cause I played around with colors I never would have gotten to use otherwise (I'm all for the neons/brighter colors!).
This is step by step so there will be quite a bit of pictures...but I resized them and made them smaller! :) Next time I'll be sure to make them even smaller in file size.
What I used:
FACE: The Face Shop makeup primer in green, Ellana intense coverage foundation in Hazelnut Latte, Ellana finishing powder in espresso con panna, Ellana mineral concealer in smile
CHEEKS: Aziza blush/highlighter duo, PAC e/s in brown for contour
LIPS: Aziza lipstick (shade got erased), ELF lipgloss on top
EYES: Art Deco Eyeshadow Base, Elianto single shimmer e/s in ivory, PAC palette, Coastal Scents 88 palette, VOV eyeshadow in yellow, Elianto stay-on eyeliner, Aido eye putti + No brand falsies
1) Apply the Elianto Shimmer e/s in Ivory wet over both lids. This will serve as base to make the colors pop better.
2) Apply yellow (I used PAC + VOV) in the inner corners of the eyes
3) Apply pink in the middle part of the eye lids
4) Take a purple and blend it into the outer V and crease. Also, take a darker shade to emphasize the crease even more. Blend blend blend!
5) Get some green and put it under your eye below the waterline
6) Line eyes - Sorry my eyes are red, still fighting off a cold!
7) Apply light shimmer yellow from 88 palette to highlight under the brow
8) Mascara
9) Contour and blush
10) Fill in brows
11) Lipstick + lipgloss!
Here is what we have so far:
12) Apply falsies! For this I used green/blue/purple falsies but it's not so visible.
FINISHED LOOK
CLOSE UP OF THE E/S

Oh wow, Chrissy! I love it. Very nice color.
OMG. Is that a lip ring that I see? ;)
@ URY - just what I was going for. Thank you!
@ Noi - Thanks! I'll try wearing it to school..a toned down version at least. Or at least just the cheeks and lips. Hehe. Don't want to shock everyone with my e/s. ;]
@ Izumi - thank you mucho!
@ Cheysser - Thank you! And yes, yes it is a lip ring you see. :D

Aw thank you so much Donnarence! You have a really pretty smile, too.
whoa great job! and your shots are just great!
Thank you Crystal! :)
It looks great! Very pretty :)
I love the colors you used for this post. They are all so spring colors! And you're great at make up :D
thats super cute, you could so wear this out!!
you look great in pink :D You pull it off! I'm afraid to do lighter colors haha
Wow, Chrissy, you're getting so good so fast! I love these colors and especially the pop that the pink gives this look!
Also, really glad to hear that the deep conditioning treatment worked out for you. :D Have you tried looking for glycerin at a regular drugstore? It's usually w/ band aids and aloe, I think.
& yea, basically anything can crease, and grainy products tend to crease more. I have problems w/ creasing in particular though since my lids are REALLY oily. I wear UDPP and MAC Painterly on my lids daily, otherwise my shadow would last about 1hr on my eyes.... LOL. I applied Mutiny very lightly today (I think it's supposed to be one of the better textured pigments too) and it still looks great right now (YAY), so I think the trick is to use less. Yesterday I used a lot more w/ water & glycerin and it was a huge mess.
Love the colors! Thanks for visiting my blog btw! I'll visit yours too because I am not very artistic when it comes to applying makeup!
You can pull off colors very well. I am so jealous!
Chrissy honey, you are amazing! ohh, you are great hunnie, so please don't think that you'd never win against me. *kisses*
So pretty!!! You are just too good at blending!
awwwwww...very pretty :) i like it a lot!
Very colorful! Hahaha fun.
I've been thinking of buying ELF lipgloss, but I'm not sure what to get. Hahaha. How is it? What shade/s do you have? Haha.
OH!!! Another question. Where do buy Aziza stuff?? My mom has some stuff and they are awesome but she doesn't remember where they're from. Haha.
I only have one shade and nabura na so I can't tell you what it is. It's really good though, not sticky, feels good on the lips, stays decently. In any case it's only 130PHP so not too big a waste. :)
My Aziza stuff is from the US, but I saw some at circle c in the 'tiangges' there... but it's hard to locate really.
