Holiday Makeup! (Drugstore)| Blogmas Day 15.

I figured that I should do a makeup look, because the last one was written a pretty long time ago.

Here are some of my recommended items that you can use to construct your look!

(Click the product name for the link to where you can buy it.)

Foundation. 

Revlon Colorstay Foundation. 

They come in different formulations that suit different skin types!

Maybelline Fit Me! Shine Free Foundation.

CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation. 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation.

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Foundation.

EYEBROWS. 

I think that the holiday season requires full eyebrows!

Remember to choose a product that’s a shade lighter than the hair on your head!

Maybelline Define-A-Brow Eyebrow Pencil.

e.l.f Studio Eyebrow Kit. 

Revlon Brow Fantasy.

EYESHADOW. 

There’ll be a glam side & a neutral side!

Maybelline Color Tattoo in Pomegranate Punk. (glam)

Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Trio in Knock On Wood. (glam)

Maybelline Eyestudio Eyeshadow Quad in Legendary Lilac. (glam)

Rimmel Glam’ Eyes Eye Shadow Quad in Diamond Jubilee. (neutral)

Maybelline ExpertWear Eyeshadow Quad in Lavender Lights. (neutral)

Maybelline EyeStudio Eyeshadow in Pink Punch. (neutral)

CHEEKS. 

I think it’s best for your lips or eyes to stand out, so blush should be toned down. You don’t have to use this if you don’t want to, because you might have a natural flush from the weather.

L’Oreal True Match Blush in Tender Rose.

Boots No7 Natural Blush Tint Powder in Soft Damson.

L’Oreal Blush in Rose Gold Lift. 

I wouldn’t recommend bronzer just because it’s a little odd to have a sun-kissed glow during the winter season. However, do what you like and apply bronzer of your choice!

LIPS. 

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Berry Soft. (neutral)

Maybelline ColorSensational Lip Color in Celestial Coral. (neutral)

CoverGirl Natureluxe Gloss Balm in Sandstone. (neutral)

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Raspberry Bite. (glam)

L’Oreal Color Riche Caresse Lipstick in Cherry Tulle. (glam)

Almay Liquid Lip Balm in Just Plum Good. (glam)

ALRIGHT! That’s all I have for this post. Do remember not to mix both glam eyes and glam lips together because it’ll be too much.

Hope you’ve enjoyed it and here’s to me completing my missed blogmas days.

Finding my identity | Blogmas Day 13.

Recently, I’ve been pretty bothered about who I actually am. I’ve been tossing and turning, trying to find out what I’m like, who I want to be and my personality.

I feel as though I have a split personality. With a bunch of people, I can be a slight tomboy, with others I might be a little girly and the rest, I’m in between.

Recently, I’ve been changing my fashion style and everything, and in that process I got really confused as to who I was.

I know, I’m not the kind of girl who can pull off dresses and really dainty outfits.

I love makeup – collecting and wearing them, but I still want to be able to play sports at a drop of the hat. So what I’m looking for, is a girly tomboy look.

I have no idea how to do that, so here are some of my inspirations!

Tay Jardine.

She’s gorgeous, gives off a skater girl vibe and is everything I want to be.

Hanging out with the dudes, while looking great at the same time. I’m trying to find that balance, but where I see myself right now is stuck between girly and guys.

I desperately wanted her Tay bomber jacket on Glamor Kills, but it was way too expensive to ship it all the way here.

I really want that dress as well.

From what I gather, muscle tanks with a nice bandeau inside. Ripped jeans along with Vans / sneakers!

Minimal makeup, because she’s always performing and getting sweaty, you don’t want to see makeup melting off!

GRACE HELBIG.

She’s the person I really want to be, maybe I could use a little Tay mixed in.

She’s a natural beauty and she does not care too much about glamorous makeup and dressing.

From what I have seen, she mostly uses foundation, eyebrow stuff, mascara , bronzer and lip stuff!

Alright, that’s all I have for today! Pretty short and sweet. I just wanted to share a bit about my life and stuff I’ve been experiencing. Stay tuned for my next post!

Song of the day!

I just came across this song and thought that it was absolutely beautiful. Hope you enjoy it as much too!

How To : Tumblr Girl Fashion | Blogmas Day 5.

I figured that my follow-up to Part 1 was really really horrible so here’s another one!

First off, what’s in the tumblr trend?

Muscle tanks, high-waisted shorts, stacked armcandy, lots of jewelry, vans, oversized pullovers.

Follow that trend!

Here are some pictures and options for you, so read on!

Oversized cardigans as well! Knitted is always a great option.

Here are some top options. 

Forever 21 The Beatles Muscle Tank. 

Forever 21 Standout Nope Muscle Tank.

Doe Meow Face Cropped Muscle Tee.

The Laundry Room Flag American Jetsetter Crop Muscle Tee.

I’m Looking For Trouble Tank from Nasty Gal.

Black Craft Oujia Muscle Tee.

Grungy girls would love this!

Corner Shop Raw Bottom Muscle Tee.

Next, outerwear! 

They love knitted, oversized ones. It gives an illusion of a smaller body (if it fits you right.) and makes you seem small and cute. Also, it seems like it’s your boyfriend’s (if it’s in the boy-ish color)

Most of them would go for the ones that open in the centre, not the full piece that you have to pull over your head!

Coincidence & Chance Chunky Cable-Knit Cardigan.

Staring At Stars Folk Diamond Sweater.

Sparkle & Fade Boyfriend Snap-Front Cardigan.

Ecote Batwing Knit Cardigan.

Dolce Vita Corvan Cable Cardi.

Prepster Cardi.

Nollie Slouchy Button Front Cardigan.

Roxy 5G Oversized Shaker Sweater.

You get the gist of it!

Next, bottoms! 

They quite like short shorts / high-waisted shorts. This shows off their slender legs and prove how many hours they’ve been spending at the gym.

Or maybe they’re just blessed.

Roxy Cliffs Denim Shorts.

Bullhead Denim Co Orange Single Roll Shorts.

I think that these sort of colors can really emphasize on your tan, if you have one.

Georgia Cutoff Shorts. 

Coast Cutoff Shorts.

One Teaspoon Bandit Cutoff Shorts.

I think shorts are particularly easy to find, and you get the idea about the kind to find, so I’ll stop here!

One common thing in all of them would be accessories!

Lots of armcandy action there!

Here are some of my favorite options!

1% for the Planet Pack.

Gold Feather Seafoam.

There’s a ton of great tumblr-like accessories over at puravida, so head down and take a look!

Romantic Bangle Set.

Zigzag Bangle Set. 

Simply Stated Midi Ring Set.

Seaside Ring Set.

Whether it’s a cutesy ring or a statement piece, be sure to have at least 3 rings altogether on both hands!

Knuckle Rings are particularly trendy.

Future Triangle Necklace.

Sea Bound Anchor Necklace.

Their choice of necklaces tend to be the longer ones, which hang till the middle of their boobies.

They also have pretty big pendants.

Last but not least… Bags!

Their bags tend to be the slouchy ones that hang off their shoulder.

Or just anything that hangs off your shoulder.

Everyday Structured Satchel.

Limburg Bag.

Veruca Bag.

Alright, that’s all I have for you today!

I hope you’ve enjoyed this post and found it useful.

Stay tuned for more!

Stocking Stuffers! | Blogmas Day 3.

[If you’re wondering where Day 2 is, I’m still getting pictures for it, so patience!]

It’s December, so obviously everyone would start thinking about Christmas and what presents to get for everyone.

If you want some tips or an easy way out, carry on reading this post!

Crabtree & Evelyn Holiday Hand Care Set of 3. 

At 25g each, it’ll be a great stuffer as they’re small and you get to stuff 3 stockings with just ONE product!

Downside, they aren’t in the permanent line so if anyone loves it and wants to get it, better do so before the holidays end!

Available here.

Stila Color Me Glossy Lip Glaze Set. 

These come in a pack of 3, which in turns come in another pack of 3!

At the back of the label of the mini packs, written on it is a “to: ____” and “from: ___” which is great!

If you’re feeling a little less generous, you can always open the pack up, take 1 lip glaze and put a ribbon on it, there you have it!

Who can pass on a Stila lip glaze? No one.

Available here.

Ciate Tree Trinkets.

How cute are those mini nail polishes? They might seem more like Christmas tree decorations, but it’ll be cute to find one of these in a stocking!

Plus, they come in a set of 6. That means you get to have 6 stuffers in just one box.

The ball casing also provides the receiver with a chance to express their creativity and use it for next year’s Christmas!

Available here.

Sephora Lollipop Lipgloss.

This is more of aesthetic purposes.

A little lollipop with the bling and glitz, it’ll be rather interesting to find it in a stocking!

Available here. 

Joy To The World Ceramic Mug.

How cute is this mug?

It’ll be great for anyone! Especially those tea / coffee addicts. Great for hot cocoa during the winter time!

Available here.

Bacon Bandages. 

I know, this is nothing “festive” and absolutely unrelated to Christmas, but I thought this was pretty quirky and cute!

Everyone (almost) loves bacon and it’ll be so funny to have a bacon wrapped around your finger!

I think it’ll be especially appreciated by the younger kids.

Available here.

Ikea Gift Card.

Honestly, I love the Ikea food centre. Meatballs and salmon and all those good stuff always leave me wanting more!

Also, there are so many cute items in there that I’d love to buy, so I thought this would be amazing for the recipient to receive as it’ll be really useful!

Available here.

Lush Chocolate Whipstick Lip Balm. 

This would be amazing for all chocolate lovers!

It comes in a cute packaging as well, I feel like all the Lush lip balms are great as stuffers.

Their lip scrubs are amazing as well!

Available here.

Starbucks Stainless Steel Tumbler.

Who can pass up on a green tumbler?

I’m not sure how this works, but when you bring a Starbucks tumbler to a Starbucks outlet, you get something in return with your order.

  I personally think that it’d be a pleasant surprise to receive this – especially for those Starbucks lovers!

Available here.

Nigellissima.

For those mother’s or aspiring MasterChef’s (even juniors!), I think that this recipe book would be amazing for them.

With sooooo many recipes in there, it’d be a dream for those who absolutely love cooking.

(You can get them to cook for you too!)

Available here.

Alright, so here’s just a few ideas on what to get as stocking stuffers!

Hope you’ve enjoyed this post and found it useful!

Estée has is by far, my favorite “beauty guru” of ALL times.
The way she carries herself and how she talks to the camera, it really makes me feel as though she’s communicating with me.
Not to mention, how gorgeous she is.
I love how she can pull off red lips, and is the only person I know that can do that. Have you seen her with red lips?!

Can I just say she is pretty all around.

Yes, I know I’m acting like a “fangirl” but she is really so darn pretty and I love her videos. Because of Estée, I managed to step over to this side of the beauty world. Listening to her talk about products is just so interesting, the way she describes and brings out the best in them, I feel like I need to get everything she recommends.
Drugstore makeup starter kit
That video (my favorite-est) inspired me to get into makeup and just be pretty. She’s so happy all the time and her smile is one of the most beautiful ever! I can watch her videos everyday and not get bored.
Now I have to talk about Aslan and her. They’re the cutest couple ever and they remind me so much of Z and I. This Q & A video was the first video that I watched, without checking the time once, even though it was 25 minutes long. It felt close to 5 minutes. Aslan and Estée
The way they look into each other’s eyes. It’s fate and magical.

I really wish that one day, I’ll be able to meet her. It’ll be even cooler to go makeup shopping with her!
Estée, if you’re reading this. You’re amazing.

Cuteness level, way too high.
