Daytime Orange

As promised...

I know I have been AWOL for the last couple of days and I haven't been posting regularly. :/ So here's another hard earned EOTD. :) Hope you like it! Coz I really do! :)

Let's start the show...

I used what Aunt L gave me... Shu Uemura in M Beige and Orange. Yes you heard it right, Orange! Haha! It's a pretty orange color, and not the "bilibid orange" don't worry.




Here's a swatch:

Start with my eye... It's already quite oily since I just got home. Hehe! :p


I used the M Beige shade first.


Apply it to the inner lids.

I stopped 3/4 of the lid, since I'll be adding a different shade to that.


Now, it's time to use the Orange shade of Shu Uemura.


Apply it on the outer side if the eye. Make a v shape.


Here's how it should look like:


Notice that there's demarcation which we still need to fix.


Now to do that, use a blending brush. I'm using Suesh brushes. Blend blend blend!


Tada!


All better! :)


Now to highlight the browbone, I use my favorite off-white Elianto eyeshadow.


Highlight the browbone. This will make the eye makeup for dramatic!


Now, time to use my newly purchased Nichido eye pencil in Black brown.



Here's a swatch:

Line the upper lashline and don't forget to tightline. Tightlining will make your eyes bigger and livelier!


Here's how it should look like:


Finish by lining the lower lashline. Curl the lashes, and apply mascara. I used Covergirl Lashexact Mascara in Black Brown.

Shu Uemura & Nichido

What does these two brands have in common? They both have really good quality. Of course one is branded and the other is local, but I rarely look at the brands. I try not to discriminate when it comes to makeup, just as long as they have a wide variety of products, they have good quality, and I've tried and tested them. :)

You'd probably be reading on different brands as we go along with my posts about beauty here in S2S. I wanna give women choices and not just stick to high end brand. However, a tip is still to go and try the products yourself first. I normally try the tester products in counters or if I buy online, I read on the comments of other people, before buying for myself.

Anyway, back to the topic... Aunt L gave me 2 lovely shades of Shu Uemura eyeshadows. *Thanks Aunt L! I really like them!* Here they are...


M Beige and Orange


I also got myself a dark brown color of eyeliner. You know how much I love eyeliners! I needed this for tightlining. So I went to SM and bought Nichido eye pencil in Black Brown. This eye pencil can be used as eyeliner or eyebrow pencil.



Here's a swatch:

I'll be doing an EOTD using these products. So stay tuned! :)
