LOTD: Easy Summer Look


It was soooooo sunny and bright today (what a miracle!!! it has been really dull, rainy summer here in Finland). I decided to do something really easy with using only couple of shadows, but something that would still be SHINY unde the sun! ;P 

Plus the yellow toned shade compliments my blue eyes. ;)
(hopefully the color is showing on your screens. Tried my best photographing it.)


Here's the products I used;
* Inglot eye primer + NYX Jumbo pencil "Milk"

* Meow Cosmetics "Sleeping Naked" (Joys of Summer collection) all over the lid. (Little bit yellow toned, shimmery color.

* MUG "Shimma Shimma" on the teardot and the 1/3 of the inner lid.

* Sugarpill "Tako" as a highlight color under the highest point of the browbone

(* Plus my typical liner with Inglot's liquid liner #25)

* On the Cheeks; Meow Cosmetics Glow powder in "Phantoma" (I think it's from the "Lost Rainforest" Seasonal collection) - apricot/melon shade with pink iridescence.



Hope you like it! (Don't mind that my skin looks so pasty in the closeups.)
Have a sunny day!!!! <3 :)

Endless Nights

Hey! It's going to be a really short post - it's already 1:16 am here as I write this. I'm not in sleep yet 'cause I'm so nervous about the results of the cosmetology school. The letters from the school should arrive in the morning. I know staying up won't fasten the time, but I cant help it, if I'm nervous/scared.

Anyway! I did a really quick eye makeup today using the MEOW COSMETICS "ENDLESS NIGHTS" from the "JOYS OF SUMMER" Seasonal collection. :))


I only did this to my other eye, so there's (at least yet) no whole face photos this time. I was also already out of sunlight as some of you may notice.

* Inglot eyeprimer
* smoke gray shadow (Inglot, but I can't remember the number and just now I'm too lazy to get up from the bed. Sorry! :D)
* Medium brown eyeshadow (BH Cosmetics 120 palette 2nd edition)
* Too Faced Glitter Insurance
* Meow Cosmetics "Endless Nights" (Joys of Summer Seasonal Collection)
* Sugarpill Cosmetics Pressed Eyeshadow "Tako"

***

1. Prime your lid.
2. Pat some glitter insurance to the lid so that you live the outer half without.
3. With a flat stiff brush apply thin leyer of the grey color to the center of your lid (on top of the glitter insurance). NOT in the crease.
4. Take "Endless Nights" and pat it everywhere you had that glitter insurance (also on top of the grey shadow)
5. Take either fluffy dome shaped blending brush or a stiff dome crease brush and add the grey color to the outer-v and slightly to the crease.
6. With a blending brush and the medium brown eyeshadow, blend the grey color. (softens it little bit.)
7. Swipe your white color to the teardot and to the brow bones highest part as a highlight.
8. Line the lower lashline with the medium brown shadow. (optional.)
9. Line your waterlines with a black kohl pencil (optional.)
(10. I almost always do the winged liner with the liquid liner.)
11. Add mascara.

DONE. :)

Hope this wasn't total dissapointment :'DD
(If this was 'short' post... I wonder, what is long post.... O.O)

Night night! :))
(haha 'Endless Nights'...)

Iron Man Inspired




Wihii, I was subconsiously inspired by Iron Man (From Iron Man and The Avengers). BTW, I haven't seen the Avengers movie... Bohoo :((
This was meant to be only in Facebook, but I've changed my mind. I know there must be hunders of looks that are really much like mine, but anyway. I wasn't meant to do this - only after I had done the upper lid I got that 'hey!' moment and added the blue liner to get the Iron Man colors. :D

***
FACE:

* Make Up For Ever HD Foundation #115 mixed with Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation 1
* Meow Cosmetics Mineral Foundation in "Spynx" (if you're wondering, my face doesn't look cakey at all even if I'm using these foundations together, because I use such a tiny amounts. This is just a combination that works for me and especially, if I'm taking pictures.)

* Meow Cosmetics Tigers Eye Bronzer in "Luck Light"
EYES:

* Nyx Jumbo Pencil "Milk"
* MUG "Gold Digger"
* MUG "Shimma Shimma"
* MUG "Chickadee"
* MUG "Razzleberry"
* MUG "Poolside"
* MUG "Corrupt"
* Meow Cosmetics Joys of Summer Collection "Heatwave"
* Meow Cosmetics Pleasures Collection "Sugar Daddy"
* Sugarpill Cosmetics Pressed Eyeshadow "Tako"
* Ardell Invisiband False Lashes "Sexies" 


Usually I don't use this dramatic makeup at public, but yesterday I did leave this on when I went to the store. Nothing 'horrible' happened to me *gasp*! :D Couple people did gave me little strange stare, but hopefully they were inside their heads like: "WAAAA IRON MAN!!!!" Haha xD


With brown eyes

I'm not planning on doing a tutorial for this, but if people are interested and I get some requests, I can consider! :)
Leave a comment or sent a e-mail (sidebar).

Hope you lil' Readers enjoyed! :) <3

Ps. I'm waiting my Makeup Geek Lipstick to arrive this week. So excited, 'cause I yet haven't found any lip products that are so 'comfortable' I don't want to bite my lip all the time >_< (The stress reaction to bite my lip and also if the lipstick feels like pealing off.)

Also I'm waiting some other new products. :3 Not telling you yet what they are. Tehee

And, and, and (so hyperactive, haha :D) this thursday I will hear I got into the cosmetology school!!!!!!!! So happy, but yet stressed at the same time, 'cause this means really much for me... :) :/

Meow; Joys of Summer

Picture from www.meowcosmetics.com

1st. of June Meow Cosmetics launched their newest Seasonal Limited Edition Collection called "Joys of Summer". All the names of the eyeshadows, blushes and bronzers of this collection is named by the customers! They had this naming contest where you could tell your "joys" of summer.

Luckily two of my name suggestions were chosen in this collection! :) ("Heatwave" and "Lazy Days")

As a prize I could choose one full size eyeshadow (Meow Cosmetics sell also sample sizes!!). It was a hard thing to do, 'cause they're all so pretty!!! >_<  
In the end I wanted "Heatwave" (Tehee, named by me. :D), 'cause red eyeshadows seems to be so rare.

Heatwave. (www.meowcosmetics.com)

"Heatwave" is berry red with a golden sheen.


Because I also made an order at the same time, I also received 2 sample sizes from the "Joys of Summer" collection. :)

"Midnight Sun" (www.meowcosmetics.com)

Midnight Sun is "intense blue with strong purple fire ". I would say a blue with a purple hue.
There's something really eery on this color... : DD

"Endless Nights" (www.meowcosmetics.com)

Endless Nights is purple with silvery shimmer. (Really shimmery!! Yet subtle)

Heatwave, Endless Nights, Midnight Sun.
(Sorry about the bad picture, I'm not good at doing swatches so yet again I just do looks were you can see these better!)



Remember, as this is a SEASONAL collection, it will be gone at some point!

Where to buy?
http://meowcosmetics.com/joysofsummer.htm (Direct link to the "Joys of Summer" collection)

Sample size: 1$
Full Size eyeshadow: 8$

Personally I'm going to purchase at least these shadows in some point; "Oasis", Cricket Serenade", Heat Lightning", "Flaming Marshmallows", "Brazilian"
