SWATCHES!

OPI (Gargantuan Green Grape)

While I love the idea of this color, the consistency is the worst I've ever tried. It is way too streaky. In the end, even though I love the color I just don't have enough patience to keep re-applying them. BOO!

OPI (Melon of Troy)

I tried really hard to like this color but I find that I got bored with it real fast. (within the first hour of application hehe) Maybe, I'll try it on my toenails and see if I like them there better.

OPI (You Don't Know Jaqcues)

So, I have to be honest. When I first saw this color, I didn't care much for it. Dark gray-ish brown? NO THANKS. I thought that this color would not be flattering to anyone. BUT I have had a change of heart and I am sooo happy that I purchased it. It has become one of my favorites and the consistency is nice as well..

MY NEW FAVORITE NUDE!!!

IT's So Lovely!

OPI (Tickle My Francey)

FOR THE LONGEST TIME, I have struggled to find the perfect nude shade for my skin. But, I came across this color on my last polish shopping spree :) (ACCIDENTALLY) I was actually contemplating whether or not to get a second bottle of You Don't Know Jacques when I saw this right next to it and I thought...hmm, interesting. So, I purchased it and I didn't immediately pay attention to it because I wanted to try Essie's Neo Whimsical first but while waiting for that one to dry, I ended up smudging one of my nails so I ended up taking that color off and putting this one on and I immediately fell in love. I really don't want to take this off.

Maybe I am just going through the pale shades phase, who knows? BUT I AM LOVING THIS RIGHT NOW!

FOR LORRAINE :)

MY EVERY DAY MAKE UP LOOK

1. After washing my face and putting on a moisturizer, I put Almay Brightening Concealer all over my upper lid

2. After that, I dab on Urban Decay Primer Potion on my upper lid.

3. I then put on my eyeshadow. For everyday, I usually go for Satin Taupe or Sable by MAC. If I wake up earlier, I reach for my Nars cream shadow in Savage (GORGEOUS BRONZE!) and then I dust the MAC golden bronze loose powder on top of it {<--I started using it as an eyeshadow because it breaks out my skin :( }

4. I then curl my eyelashes with Shu Uemura ( I don't know how to spell it, oh well hehe). I leave it alone for about thirty second (I usually dust off my eyeshadow fall outs at this time) Then I coat it with Loreal Extra Volume Hydra Collagen Pumpin Mascara (HAHA, I know its such a looong name but it works wonders for my tiny lashes) NOT THE WATERPROOF KIND!

5. By now, I'll line my eyes. I recently started using the Toki Doki Perfetto Eyeliner and I LOVE IT!

6. After all that drama with the eyes, I slap on my face foundation which is the Neutrogena Skin Clearing Foundation. (It is watery but its the only foundation that does not break me out) SIDE NOTE: I do want to try Sheer Glow because of you but I don't know...

7. Now I'll line my water line with Urban Decay 24/7 in zero.

8. Then I will put the same Almay Brightening Concealer underneath my eyes and proceed to set my foundation with MAC's studio fix in C4

9. I always do sculpting because I feel like I have chipmunk cheeks. So I used the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Deep and I use that to contour the sides of my cheeks.

10. I don't put any blush or lipstick. I know it is a lot of steps but I seriously do this on a daily basis that it's become a fixated routine. I don't feel right if I don't do it.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED READING IT AS MUCH AS I ENJOYED WRITING IT! :)
