Drama Queen

Get ready to turn heads with a bold, dramatic smokey eye makeup that’s perfect for dressier occasions.

Tip: Apply primer on the eyelids to smoothen it and to make the eye makeup last longer. Use a blending brush to create a subtle gradation effect. Aside from the usual smokey dark brown or black colors, you may also opt for more adventurous color combinations such as gold (inner eye corner) and teal (outer eye corner).

I am in love with Guerlain’s Meteorites Illuminating Powder. I use it everyday as a finishing powder to give my face a subtle glow and to pull my make up together. For more dressy occasions, I concentrate on picking up more product from the shimmery balls and voila! It doubles as my highlighter. It looks great in person as well as in photos.

My favorite product is Urban Decay All Nighter Make Up Setting Spray! This product is impressive because it really makes your makeup stay on all night — especially if you’re out dancing or doing any activity that may ruin it!

It’s frustrating when you discover makeup that you need but can’t purchase at the local market. Luckily Japanichi (https://japanichi.multiply.com) is a steady and reliable seller of CANDY DOLL products, especially this mineral face powder that I absolutely love. For this particular treasure, I’m willing to preorder and wait in line!

I’m so in love with the BB cream! I have three different brands that I use. I just love the natural finish and then I just top it off with mineral foundation. My imperfections are visibly covered and I feel like I have almost perfect skin. My favorite is the L’Egere White Multi Blemish Balm Cream!
