Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadow

Bonjour Beauty Lovers! Today's pick for make up will be Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadow!

This is the new waterproof Aqua collection.

For the rest of Aqua Collection, can click HERE!

Let's get started!

 

These are some of the range colors available in Singapore. The size is much bigger than Aqua Eyes Pencil. Can be applied on your eyes, as liner, eyebrown, and also your cheeks for blush.

I shall start off with a foundation base.

Highlighting

For application on the eyes, glide the side of the pencil lighting along the lines

Shadow Base

Similarly to the highlighting, simple apply the product lightly.

 Eyebrow

 For the brows, simple apply the product lighting to reduce the intensity

Blend with a eyebrow brush

And you have a set of waterproof brows!

Playing with colors

 If you haven't notice, i am a fan of BLUE! So i love playing with cool tones.

Blending with a brush is much easier if you want to have a smoother look.

 The finish eyelook. Suitable for party, work and swim.

If the look is not intense enough, you can always blend in more colors.

 I chose the Aqua Shadow #6E.

Blend the darker tone with a blending brush right below the brow bone. I love to match dark blue and black together for smoky look.

 The finish look with a Aqua Shadow #6E on the lower line.

 

There is no fix ways for make up. So keep practicing and experiment more colors!.

More looks will be updated soon. Good luck!

Create the Natural Look

Bonjour, beauty lovers! With many request from my readers on the step to creating a natural look for work, play, leisure, this post is dedicated to you!

Step 1: Prep your skin

Before application of any make up products, make sure that you moisturise your face to prevent drying up of skin due to various weather changing conditions. First, i use SKII to act as a toner once i have cleansed my face. Secondly, Make Up For Ever HD Primer to moisturise and protect my skin from absorbing of make up products. Lastly, with my oily skin type, using the Make Up For Ever All Matt Primer, only apply on specific T-Zone areas to have a better oil control. Afterall these steps, you will soon realise that your make up last longer, and better, no need for TOUCH UP!

Step 2: Foundation 

Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet is most suitable for oily skin type and sweat resistant. This means that your make up will not melt under the sun. Better, it can act as a concealer due to the amount of coverage.

For application, i prefer a sponge as the coverage can be balanced. I prefer to start from the undereye area and centre of the face. Then, i use the sponge to blend out.

Compare both side of my face. Do you see a difference in coverage?

This is the final look with foundation. The coverage is high, and i do not have to worry about my make up melting.

 

Step 3: Concealer

Only with the application of the Mat Velvet, i will use the Bobbi Brown cream concealer as they are both consist of high coverage and can be able to blend very well.

With the concealer, i can use to cover and highlight my eye areas as well. By achieving a better results, blend the product by only tapping.

Note: Do not rub under your eyes as the skin is very sensitive and vulnerable.

Step 4: Loose Foundation

Due to the harsh sun, Make Up For Ever White Definition SPF 30 PA++ Foundation is the best pick!

It helps to matify, protect and brighten your skin!

Firstly, I start off with the make up pad and apply under the eyes to act as extra highlighting. For the rest of my face, i use a loose foundation brush to lighting apply to set my make up.

Step 5: Eyeliner

If you have no time to apply eyeshadow, eyeliner is the easiest way. I use Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes. For application, simply glide the product on your upper eyelid. For better results, you can blend upwards with a brush straight after application for smokey effects.

Quick Tip: If you look tired, do apply a white eyeliner along your waterline to give a sharper look on your eyes.

Step 6: Contour

For contouring, I can MAKE UP FOR EVER Sculpting Kit. For application, start off with a medium size brush, or make up for ever sculpting brush, blend in a circular motion from your ear to the lower jaw line.

The circular motion in application can allow better blending and create a natural contouring effects.

Step 7: Mascara with Lashes

 Maybelline Volume Lash and Make Up For Ever Aqua Smoky Lash is my top favourites. Simply curl your lashes, and apply the product by looking down for easier application.

Note: Sometimes your mascara may leave extra products due to the extra timing to dry the lashes. Not to worry, just wait for the product to dry, then use a Q-Tip to remove gently.

Step 8: Blush on cheeks!

This is the step which can be able to show radiant effects. Similarly like contouring, start from the ear, then blend towards your cheeks.

Note: By starting on your cheek area, this might make you look older.

Step 9: Lips

For lip, Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip is the best pick due to the waterproof effects. While lining, this can prevent your lip color from 'bleeding' ( fading away) and maintain the base color as well!

For natural finish, Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist is still my best pick due to the preventing my lips from drying out ( like most lipsticks do), and also do not need to retouch as much compared.

Finish look!

Hope that you have enjoyed this mini tutorial! Good luck!

Interview with 97.2fm

Thank you, everyone lovely people who voted for my dad during the SuperStar Look Alike Competition!

Yesterday afternoon headed down to 97.2fm radio station to have a short interview with Wallace and Yong Mei. We had talk about my dad's career and his reflection about looking like the local celebrity, Ah Nam. And finally I get to meet my favourite DJ, Wallace.

 A group shot after the interview.

( Stay calm, Welna)

 Before the interview, Yong Mei was busy sorting out the plannings. Every work is never easy.

Anyway, my Dad and I had a great time. The DJs are so friendly and well to get along. They encouraged me to join the talent competition with the winning price of $8K. This is so tempting. Well, i have not decided yet because i am not mentally and physically prepared. But i have signed up for the upcoming courses with a trainer, a good friend of my dad's to coach me.

Additionally, I have signed up to be in a student team for Bachata Tango performance. Training took about 4 months, once a week. Performance will be held on the Jan Festival.

Right now, I am determined to work towards being a performing artst. Chase my dream!
