Color Me Fuschia

Fuschia lips are here to stay! I’m officially a Fuschia-lips fanatic. I love this bright color on my lips, and I definitely love wearing it when my day is gloomy. I’ve done similar look in Colour Splash and in Eyes, Lips, and Polka Dots.

For this tutorial, I used the lipstick that was given to me from Shu Uemura Indonesia from last week’s Ob Collection event. This Shu Uemura Unlimited Supreme Matte Lipstick in PK376 is a matte fuschia lipstick. This lipstick will suit every skintones. You’ve might have seen Kim K and Emma Stone sporting Fuschia lips on my Pinterest 😉

For the rest of the face and eyes, you can definitely go for very little makeup. I just added eyeliner and falsies because I wanted to make it a little more retro. If you aren’t comfortable with the eyeliner and falsies, just skip them altogether.

How-to:

1. For the face, I prepped the skin by moisturizing it using Body Shop Vit. E moisturizer, and applied L’occitance lip balm on the lips.

2. I applied MUFE HD Foundation using my fingers.

3. I filled in my brows using Shu Uemura Brow Pencil.

4. On the eyes, I applied Chanel Illusion D’ombre in Emervielle all over the lid using my ring finger.

5. I applied a warm brown eyeshadow (can’t remember the name) on both upper and lower lashline using an angled eyeliner brush.

6. Using a small shader brush, I lightly blended the liner to diffuse any harsh lines.

7. I curled my lashes and applied L’oreal Double Extender Curl mascara on both top and bottom lashes.

8. I lined my waterline using MAC Chromagraphic liner in NC30. *You can stop here if you want and continue on lips*

9. I applied winged liner along upper lashline using Kate Sharp Eyeliner and Ardell Medium false eyelashes.

10. I removed the lip balm on my lips by blotting it off using a clean kleenex.

11. For the lips, I applied Shu Uemura Unlimited Supreme Matte lipstick in PK 376 using a lipbrush.

12. Once I filled in my entire lips, I blot it off using a clean piece of kleenex and re-apply the lip color as needed.

13. *optional* If you want to re-shape your lips, apply lip liner of the same color as your lipstick before lipstick.

14. I applied MAC Fleur Power blush on my face so I don’t look washed out.

Under the Sea

The start of this week has been quite upsetting! Anyways, to cheer myself up I decided to do a tutorial with uber bright colors! Since I’ve been using lots of purple lately, I’ve decided to use blue and greens. The eyeshadow on the inner corner showed up as yellow for some reason, even though it’s actually a chartreuse colored eyeshadow.

Anyhow, I don’t really quite enjoyed how this turned up, may be because I think I winged the blue way too far than usual. Nevertheless, I still love how the colors turned out! Bright and pretty, just the way I like it.

How-to:

 

1. I applied Sariayu K. Karimunjawa green eyeshadow on the inner half of the eyelid and Ben Nye Cosmic Blue eyeshadow on the outer half of the eyelid.

2. Using a blending brush, I blended the eyeshadow.

3. Using a small shader brush, I applied MAC Rated R on the inner corner of the eyes.

4. Using a small shader brush, I also applied Celestial Blue from Ben Nye on the crease.

5. Using a small blending brush, I blended the color on the crease.

6. I applied Ben Nye Cosmic Blue, Sariayu K. Karimunjawa green eyeshadow on the lower lid using a pencil brush.

7. I lined my waterline and tightline using MAC Smolder eyeliner pencil.

8. I curled my lashes and applied Dior Overcurl mascara on both top and bottom lashes.

9. I filled in my brows using a mixture of MAC Brun and Omega.

MAC R-rated

10. For the face, I applied Estee Lauder Double Wear Light foundation all over my face.

11. I applied MAC Peaches blush on the cheeks.

12. For the lips, I applied Revlon Mauve It Over and a tiny dab of vaseline.
