your's truly[:

These days, every time I venture out into buying a new make-up product, I look online to check feedback of people who have actually used the product. So I thought I'd do the same by offering you my favorite make-up products to help you in your search for good make-up. Hope this helps you out!(:












In my experience with make-up, finding the right kind and shade of foundation that best fits me hasn't been an easy task. The most common problem you may experience with your search for the perfect foundation would probably be that your foundation is too light for you. Well, I've experienced that too. So let me first tackle on helping your with you skin-tone-matching-foundation dilemma! 


The solution in looking for a foundation shade that suits you comes in not looking for a lighter shade. It's possible that you didn't exactly mean on buying a shade of foundation that's too light for you, what probably happened is you tested it on your hand  and figured it suits your complexion. I know this for I've done the same mistake. Well my advice for this is too stop using your hand! Because first and foremost, your hand is a more or less an entirely different shade than your face. So instead of using your hand, go ahead and try it on your face. But one thing I've truly learned in choosing the best shade of foundation is to not go for a lighter shade of foundation, rather go for a shade that's one shade darker than your complexion. In doing this you most probably will end up with a foundation shade that best suits your complexion. I know I have. 


Now for your 2nd dilemma of what foundation to buy.. 
I'm not exactly a person with access to all the best make-ups in the world. So the brands that I will be advising to are the ones in access to me here in my hometown which is more or less available to you too. Also, these brands aren't exactly on the expensive side[:















If there's one make-up process I can never do without, it's applying eye liner on your upper eyelids. Specifically, the winged eye. I love it so much and highly recommend it because of how versatile it can really be and how it can instantly make you look made-up and glamorous. 


What it does is open up your eyes and really define them. Unlike just the use of mascara, the definition is very minimal, unlike with eyeliner that defines your eyes and kind-of gives definition to your lashes too. But, using mascara with eyeliner on your top lid is very recommendable too.


There are 3 kinds of eyeliner we can find. Pencil, gel, and liquid. As for colors, you can almost find eyeliner in every color imaginable. But if you're just looking for an everyday look, I suggest you use black or brown. Personally, I prefer using a dark brown shade especially if you are to use it without eyeshadow. As for what kind of eyeliner to use, I prefer pencil without eyeshadow and gel for when I use eyeshadow. I don't usually use gel with my day makeup because it tends to smudge more, but if with eyeshadow, it serves as kinda like a powder that prevents the gel from smudging and using eyeshadow also needs darker eyeliner. Whatever type you use what's important is that you look for labels that suggest non-smudging and waterproof. This way you won't have dark smudges on your eyes. 


Now, let's discuss the winged-eye. Common mistakes in doing the winged-eye is that it is exaggerated too much. The trick to having a subtle winged-eye is not to make the wing too long. I like doing this in applying eyeliner because it gives you a girly look but at the same time leaves you looking FIERCE!


Lastly, I'm not limiting the use of eyeliner just to upper eyelids. If you wish it (which I do as well), you can apply eyeliner on your waterline as well. What I suggest though is not outline the entire lower part of your eyelids, you could apply it almost 1/4 of your waterline. This way, the outline of your eyes in not to dark.


When using eyeliner, it is always better to do the makeup on your entire face. But if you're not too much a fan of that, make sure to place lip color as well as a partner to your winged eye, for as you may discover, a beautifully colored lip and well-defined eyes go together perfectly!




Though I have been reprimanded and caught for the possession of something illegal, and because of this people may have judged me of being a junkie for it and I am saying now that I'm really very much NOT,  there is one thing that I will admit of being a junkie of and will even admit it at the top of my lungs and maybe even willing to go to jail go for if illegal (:p) is....
