Playing with Make Up

Warning : A vain post. 

After re-watching Pony's Beauty Diary -Burgundy Make Up, I became inspired to try her tutorial.

Why do I title this post; Playing with Make Up? Because I literally played around with my make up. Lol. Everything was trial and error. 

I enjoy experimenting different shades of colours and different make up styles. It gives me a better understanding of what suits me and what does not. Being perfect at make up is tiring >< Shouldn't applying make up be fun and not a chore? :D This is coming from someone who disliked make up before lol.

Anyway, I followed this video closely and was trying my best to imitate how she did her make up. And the result? Wasn't close at all ><

But it wasn't all for nothing. I guess I can say that I did learn a few new things. I still suck at

fake eyelashes though :P

Here's me without any make up.

And here are all the after make up photos.

I believe that it looks NOTHING like the tutorial even though I followed it closely >< That's because I didn't have some of the similar make up shades as she had. So I ended up improvising it with the make up that I had lol.

After looking at my before and after photos, my conclusion of make up is, make up = magic. LOL.

I've never worn this much make up out before. I applied this make up in my room, took photos and removed it later on. The most I've ever worn out are; mascara, eyeliner, eye shadow, eyebrow, blush, and lipstick. No bb cream, foundation, fake eyelashes and so on.

This is how I usually look like when I go out. 

Not like this. Lol.

If I'm hardworking, I'll wear eyeliner. If not, its just eyebrow and lip balm :)

Here's what I used to create this look:

These are the items I used (from what I remember) when I was following the tutorial. I dug up whatever closests make up me and my sister had. But one thing I must say, the eyeliner (7) is a very terrible eyeliner (in my opinion)! It smudges very very easily, and it is not waterproof at all. When I applied it above my eye shadow, it just took over everything as if I didn't apply any eye shadow -.-  (I have not bought my latest eyeliner that time)

 Here are some pictures of another time when I was playing around with make up. Lol.

Yeah. There you have it :P

Its kinda strange on how I gotten interested in make up. Before this, I used to think; why does make up exist? Its so difficult to apply, time consuming, wastes money and etc. I just complained because I couldn't get anything right in make up. Plus, acne prone skin :( 

Thanks to my sister, I believe I got interested in make up because of her hehe.

The post has come to an end now. I shall end it with some food pictures :D

Till then, TTFN.
