Le Faerie Cosmetics Haul! :D


Goodies I got from Le Faerie Cosmetics. :D Their products are high-quality makeups and are made by the same manufacturer of Coastal Scents, all for very affordable prices! Perfect for budding Makeup Artists out there. :)
The Blusher and the Lip-glosses are some of the FREEBIES that we got from the workshop. The Palette over there is currently my most treasured-possession. haha. :D


The blusher has two sides: one in Peach and the other in Hot Pink. 
I love how you have the option to use either one or mix both to create that healthy glow aura. The compact comes with a mirror and a flat blush-brush (not really keen on using it though.)




It may look like your common pink lip-gloss, but its actually in a sexy-nude colour. :D These are the Opaque Lip Gloss line.
I love that you don't get that dry-gritty feeling when applied to your lips. And oh, did I mention that it glides smoothly with its all-around sponge applicator? It's really helpful when you want to dab on those hard-to-reach areas with an ordinary doe-foot applicator. I like to apply mine vertically to give me that "plump" look. :D




001 is actually brighter than 002. Its because 001 is for those who are fair-skinned, while 002 is for those on the morena side. Lucky me, both looks good on my lippies. :D Nude lip glosses are so hard to swatch because they almost look-alike. n_n' (but I guess if you have an HD camera, that would be too easy.)




By the way, to achieve that plump-look, you're gonna have to line your lips (with the closest lip-liner colour to your lippies) add lip-balm (optional) and apply your nude lip-gloss vertically.




And now, presenting one of the essential tools in my collection:
The 120 Palette # 1 Tropical Edition



See how vibrant and highly-pigmented these colours are? This is the basic must-have palette because it both has the neutral and avant-garde colours! Plus! every colour has two versions: one in Matte and one in Shimmer. :D




So, to try these babies out, I made this Sunset-themed look:




Know any high-quality, yet easy-on-your-pocket Makeup? Give us a shout! :D
Have a good day everyone! Toodles! ;D

Makeup Workshop with Le Faerie Cosmetics


Last Sunday, me and my "twin" sister, Blessie, went to Eastwood City Palazzo to attend Ms. Bee's makeup workshop and boy, what happy kids we are! XD Once the session started, we are like wild childs let loose on a colourful playground! XD I'm glad I attended this workshop, not only are my "YouTube" presumptions are wrong, I also had a proper training on beauty makeup. :D 


Bless and I, munching on our Kenny Roger Solos. :D (Right before the Workshop.)
Honestly, do we really look alike? n_n'

Now, about our Guru: Ms. Bee Lu is a Maquillage-trained Professional Makeup Artist. (ooooh, i wanna be like her someday) and the Workshop focused on one theme: Smokey-Eye Makeup. :D
We sat there for like seven hours, learning about the basics of makeup applying: from a blemish-free coverage to the classic black smokey- eye make-up. :D Another reason why I attended this workshop is so that I would OFFICIALLY know what my face Shape is and what my Colour tone really is. n_n' Turns out, I have an Elongated-Oval face with high cheek-bones, and I'm of a warm-undertone. Ms. Bee even helped me mixed the right foundation for me. :D 
When it was time for the Contouring-your-face part, I had a hard time applying mine. n_n' Personally, I thought there was a battle between High-lighting and Contouring, and High-lighting has won me over. Because I think contouring makes me look like I have that madungis effect on my face. n_n' Turns out, the two needs to work together. In the end though I've mastered the skill gracefully and I looked like a different person- a model face, rather. :D


Coverage: DONE! Up next: SMOKEY-EYES. :D


Tadaaa! Our finished Look. :D 
I'm wearing the smokey-blue colour (lol. i'm biased.) and Bless is wearing the smokey-purple colour. Hers looks so wearable in day-time, while mine's for party-ing. :D

Our Workshop comes with free use of brushes and makeup, merienda (we had Pizza! yum!) and freebies worth 1k! :D For more details and cosmetics, please visit Le Faerie Cosmetics' facebook webpage. 

I'm definitely going back for more training. :)
