My First Makeup Tag!!

Hello my lovelies! Let's have fun! (^o^)/

Few weeks ago, when I was cleaning my old stuffs, I found these things!! Empty packagings and products of my very first makeup! 8D

Believe it or not, I was a person who have enough confidence with my bare face.. I never put anything on my face when I was in high school.. I started to play with makeup since 19 years old.. On my 3rd semester of University (i guess) to be exact. Pretty late, huh? O___O

I didn't regret my decision to use makeup at that age, because IMHO young skin (especially teens' skin) shouldn't get contaminated with makeup thingy too much. I'm quite surprised with teens nowadays... tend to using heavy makeup at 13 years old *__* Uhh!

Please love your skin more, girls! Just apply skin care instead of much makeup >__<

Okay, bact to topic :P

Because I didn't want to throw these products and packaging that soon, I took some photos of these products and suddenly MY FIRST MAKEUP TAG idea popped in my head xD

Victoria's Secret Bold Sparkle Sexy Deluxe Eye Palette [review]

Hey all, I'm coming with another quick review ^-^

Few months ago I got this palette as one of my giveaway prizes from Ci Lulu :D Finally I got chance to present this review to all of you ladies~ 

Packaging:

Looks so simple yet deluxe, elegant and classy. The packaging made from sturdy materials. 

It's pretty! (✿◠‿◠)

I got the fearless palette. Hmm... I assume that this palette represents a tough lady who has no fear of her future (˘⌣˘)~ hehe

How to get the look directions

Made in Canada

Content: 6g

Very beautiful colors, isn't it? ( ♥‿ ♥)

Another plus point of this palette is.. the eyeshadows aren't too powdery! Still torelable!

Champagne: delicate shimmery color, used to highlight beneath browbone and inner corner of eyes

Gray: Good for smokey eyes, pretty shimmery gray. Blend gray into crease.

Teal: Still have hint of shimmer, apply for outer corner of eye

Blue: It's supposed to be the main color of this look, used to cover eye lid.

Navy: To line upper lash line

The navy color's texture isn't creamy, I wonder why this color doesn't work well to line my upper lashline :s the consistency is quite thick and not easy to apply.

Swatch!

(no eye primer)

I don't know why the navy color looks so blackish on this picture x_x

Anyway, the pigmentation of this eyeshadow palette is good! 

my EOTD when using the palette:

for mascara, I used Holika Holika Magic Pole Mascara in purple 

PS: sorry I photoshopped my under eye, I was too exhausted after working and lack of sleep made my dark circle even worse T____T so horrible

some FOTD:

Meehhh I wish I could apply eyeshadow better T_T learning by doing~ kekeke

What I love <3

+ Prettyyyyy colors

+ Nice packaging

+ Nice pigmentation

+ Doesn't chalky

+ The packaging is not bulky

What I hate </3

+ The navy color has strange texture, can't use it for line my eyes well

+ No brush or tip applicator

+ Pricey? LOL.. I don't know the exact price xD

Rating: 4/5

Repurchase? Umm no ^^ I want to try other eyeshadow palette

Recommended? Yes :D

Have you tried any Victoria's Secret Makeup products? ^^

Thanks for reading!

Event: Grand Launching of Lioele in Surabaya + My 1st experience joining Makeup Contest

안녕 Annyeong! \(´▽`)/ How are you guys? Hope everything's okayy ya ;)

This post gonna be a long post, and filled up with bunch of pic spam.. get ready! haha xD

Last week, exactly at December 1st.. I was invited to attend the Grand Launching of Lioele by The Grand Palace, Department Store which is located in Grand City Mall *thank you (≧∇≦)/ 

Lioele temporary stand

I want that cute pink makeup case! *w*

many customers came and tried those products from Lioele

The grand launching of Lioele was held at Atrium of Grand City. There are many agenda for today, including K-fest, fashion show, makeup competition, and the guest star is Tasya Kamila :) *do you remember the little rising star named Tasya who sang "Anak Gembala" few years ago?*

I arrived at Grand City at 14.00.. There was a K-fest fashion competition which still running at the moment. I took a seat next to Ci Shelley, my friend from IBB :) She's one of the contestant for makeup competitions as well.

Few days ago, I was hesitant to join the makeup competition or not... But at the end, I decided to give a try (>///<) I know that I'm still VERY amateur and I had very low chance to win in this competition, but I still wanted to give a try.. I want to earn more experiences ^_^

annnddd.. THE MAKEUP CONTEST BEGAN! *w*

there were 7 contestants of this makeup competition.. The theme of this competition was Korean Look. We were allowed to choose whether natural look or smokey look. 

Me? Of course I chosen korean natural look with touch of pink eyeshadow :p it suits me best than the smokey look.

We could used every products which were provided by Lioele committee. BUT I was quite panicked at the time, because the lack of products variation '_____' how come they didn't provide black mascara?? =_= I only found clear, brown and blue mascara from Bubi bubi Mascara series.. and they also have dried up.. OMG.

They even forgot to provide us black liquid eyeliner and eyelash curler -____-

the host asked us some questions to contestants during the contest, regarding our concepts and process.

Since I'm not a false lashes person, the big fatal error of my look was the imperfection of my false lashes (Ｔ▽Ｔ) I'm not used to apply false lashes >_<

Not gonna look for an excuse, but I think if only the committee prepared one black *not dried* mascara for us, my false lashes should've got better :( sobs.

me, struggling with false lashes. LOL

 The final look...

To be honest, I was not satisfied with my final look :( There were so many imperfections.. *especially the false lashes part*

I wish I brought some makeup tools for the contest.. No one told me that contestant was allowed to bring their own makeup tools '____' (like brush, eyelash curler, etc)

Geez.. Sorry for complaining a lot >____<

Actually the main problem was my makeup skill (´･___･`)

*made a promise with myself to practice A LOT since today for better makeup result in the future*

Although I didn't win, I feel still grateful because I could got new experience that day. At least I have tried my best and for me, it took a lot of courage to join this kind of competition :)

the failed false lashes application.. I used False Lashes #6 from Lioele.

For the circle lens, I used Candy Lens Classic Sky from Bunga Softlens (https://twitter.com/bunga_softlens)
