Yes, I haven’t given up just yet on blue hues e/s despite them hating me like hell. It’s alright, I take it as a challenge teehee! Let’s see who’s the sucker in the end MUHAHAHAHA. (I think I’ve lost my mind a little bit.. I felt as if the blue hues e/s were challenging me). So let’s mark this as a start of my battle with blue eyeshadows. (Yes, it’s confirmed. I can no longer keep my sanity in check).
So here’s another EOTD attempt that I did after I finished transferring some of my NYX loose eyeshadows to the pills box. I just realised I was given quite a few of blue shades by a very sweet MUAer 😀
Pardon for the bad quality of the first picture.. Bad lighting and bad phone (I was using my old camphone).
1. NYX Pearl Mania in Baby Blue (three-quarter of the lid)
2. NYX Pearl Mania in Turquoise (outer corner)
3. Matte black e/s from 88-palette (outer V, on top of Turquoise)
4. The creamy color from 88-palette, 1st row 3rd color from the top (highlight)
5. TIGI Bed Head eyeliner in Black Smudgie (upper lashline)
6. Matte white eyeliner from some unknown brand (lower waterline)
7. Maybelline Lash Stiletto mascara
By now you should’ve noticed that I prefer a clean look 🙂 I hardly line my lower lashline unless I really am in the mood to be dramatic. I know lining your lower lashline with dark eyeliner almost instantly makes your overall look becomes more dramatic, but it looks dirty on me.. Besides, it accentuates my dark circles and eyebags 😦 Anyway, keeping it clean means I can wear it for my daytime look 😀
I used to hate Turquoise. I don’t know why, it just didn’t look good on me (other blue hues e/s do too!). I played around with black and the combination between black and turquoise created this sort of royal blue which I kinda like 😀 I think from now on I know how to get a royal blue shade without the need of having another eyeshadow 😉
Here’s a little rant (please bear with me..). This morning, when I woke up, I saw a pimple appearing on my right cheek. GAH!!!!!!!!! I hate it! -_-; In the picture below, I have put on something to reduce the redness.
Sigh.. I have this love-hate relationship with exam period.. I love it as it means I’m gonna have holiday soon after the exams. I loathe it because during this period, some stupid craps start showing up! I start having skin problems.. Last semester due to hormonal imbalance (probably caused by stress, according to the doc) I had rashes on my legs. Everytime the evening wind blew off, the rashes suddenly got swollen a little and itchy like hell! Now… a pimple. Darn.
Rant ends. 😛
I’m sorry about the pimple dear. Dab some cinnamon&honey on it, it should help with redness and swelling. I like your blue EOTD, I can never pull off just plain blues, so I always mix some gold with it.
Thanks for the suggestion Dee! I’m gonna go to my kitchen digging up for some cinnamon lol
Hehe as the title says, it’s my battle with blue e/s 😛 so I am using mainly blue hues e/s 😀
I love mixing gold color too, it’s very versatile and it instantly makes the eye makeup glamorous 😉 I joined the challenge from ParisB and I picked golden yellow e/s as my primary e/s for a month. I’ve been experimenting with it and mixing it with other color. I am surprised on how awake I look when I used it as crease color for neutral brown eye makeup 😀
LOL that makes the 2 of us! The gargantuan zit on my forehead is swollen! Argh!
Anyway, I think your EOTD this time around shows some improvement eh?
Thank you 🙂 The color combination from the previous attempt simply sucks 😛 I think clean look suits me better.. 🙂 Anyhoo, the battle hasn’t ended yet 😛
Oh my.. geez, I hate the creepy zit >_< Hope it'll be gone real soon! and hopefully yours too 🙂
