many people wondering how do i maintain, and what do i do when i go out. frankly, i seldom go out with make up, the fact that i'm with a baby is making me running here and there for her instead of for myself. so, this is my quick and easy fix, no make up look, as everybody can do it. bear in mind that this is my first make up tutorial, so mind me:) i have alot of pictures on, to make it as detail as possible:)this is a freshly washed face. can see that my eyes is abit red, coz i just put on my contacts.
i always put on toner and essence together. to make sure that my face is fresh for the make up to stick on
next, is my moisturizer and sunscreen. i have moisturizer with SPF, here is garnier white light SPF15. i usually also put this moisturizer when it comes to night make up. just a habit for me though:)
i used to have liquid foundation after this step. but i switched to BB cream a few months ago. and i prefer this, as it does feel lighter:) this is BRTC Blemish Recover.
then i use my concealor just to cover some leftover redness from the BB cream. in here, i use erase paste by benefit. i cover my undereye (since i haven't really slept well, with my baby around), my ends of the eyes (i always have this discolorations here,guess i'm just born with this... but some people don't really have it, so they can just skip this step)
then my blush. here i use blush tint, benetint by benefit. i love this, as it gives the most natural flush of blush. i mean if later you wanna add something else as blush afterwards as finishing, it's fine. this is just a quicky and natural finish for me. but bear in mind that the blending is indeed the most important here. i've seen people using tint, and didn't blend evenly. the lines shows. so be very thorough here. OH ya... and also, blend while you are smiling. this why, it gives a very good definition at the apples of the cheeks.
then my eyelid primer. it gives a freshness and covers up the discoloration of the eyelids. here i use lemon aid by benefit.
lastly, i dust loose powder generously all over the face just to set all the BB cream, concealor, and the tint, and lemonaid. here i use la praire translucent cellular treatment powder. it has very light texture, and yet, luminous feel.
then i use brown shaper by bobbi brown. it's a sort of mascara, but meant for eyebrows. if those of you who are not confident with the colored ones, you can choose the clear ones. it's available in most well known cosmetics brands, like benefit, bobbi brown, MAC, etc. this is to make sure that the hair of the eyebrows are really tidy and neat. it gives a feel of 'done'.
then my eyebrightener, which is none other than my mascara. here i use diorshow iconic and diorshow blackout. iconic gives an effect of lengthening, and blackout gives the effect of thickness. at the very end, i add dejavu finishing mascara. this gives a lengthening and blackening effect. as well as to protect the mascara since this dejavu has the ability to protect the mascara from smudging on my cheeks when i laugh. so it's to prevent smudging onto my lower lids.
lastly, my lipgloss. here i use lip polish by dior, limited edition spring color.it's a simple make up though, and can be done in less than 5 minutes when you are in hurry for school or office... the purpose is just to brighten the face up so as not to look so dull as the bareskin. whereas for me, it's also acts as a protector from the free radicals and dirts. since jakarta is so dirty with the air pollution and all. i simply do this to protect my face, but at the same time, not to irritate the skin...:)
hope it helps. and mind my handphone camera. going to buy 1 soon. hope it's better than this:)
