Common makeup mistakes and some beauty tips

   Hello gorgeous! Just wanted  to share with you about makeup and some beauty tips that will be helpful especially for the newbies out there, who wish to have more knowledge about makeup. Let me know if you have some additional beauty tips that might want to share as we'll  , let's talk :)

 

Make up enhances  more the beauty of a person if you will just use the proper way of doing it. You can achieve different looks from dramatic smokey eyes, pretty bold lips and even a "no make up " makeup look.  However, there are several make up mistakes which some women tend to do without even realizing it. The first common mistake is applying too much eyeliner which makes you look like a panda. Women should be aware of selecting the right type of eyeliner which will not easily smudge around your eyes to avoid looking ridiculous in public. There are many types of eyeliner in the market from liquid liner, gel eyeliner and pencil eyeliner.  It is best and safe to use waterproof eyeliner to avoid having a smudged eye.  When doing your brow, don't make it thinner as it looks really unpleasant and absolutely looking old. If you have the time , browse on you tube and there are lots of beauty gurus that will definitely help you how to apply it, and teach how to use the products accordingly. Take your time and practice  really makes it perfect . 

                       

                                                   

The concealer gives women the luxury in covering up any spots or pimples and makes it less visible. Unfortunately, the huge mistake that women tend to do is lathering too much concealer into a certain area on the face. Applying a heavy amount of concealer on a pimple or wrinkles would not make your attempt of covering it a success but a failure. This is because the concealer will dry up on your face and it will form cracks. This will definitely ruin your look. It is better to just dab a slight layer of concealer and apply some powder on top. Make sure to use a shade that is similar to your skintone to look more natural. If you are looking for under eyes concealer , choose a lightweight  in texture so that it won't fill in the lines.

      

                          

    Another common mistake which some women tend to overlook is skipping foundation. Foundation is very important when you apply makeup as it holds your look all day long. Foundation is the basic before applying any powder, blusher or eyeliner onto your face. Never skip applying foundation as it allows your makeup to stay perfectly intact the entire day. To avoid dry skin during the day, slap on some moisturizer before applying your makeup. This will gives you extra glow and healthier looking skin. Remember to choose a shade that matches well to your skin tone to look more natural and beautiful. You can always ask and check shades /textures that suits well in your skin type in the counters for higher end brands  or drugstore makeup. However for more convenient and easy shopping , you can always go for online shopping. Check out Zalora Malaysia, it is an online shopping that offers variety of products , from clothing, shoes ,accessories and even beauty products and a lot more!

Logging back in and My First MAC Makeup Workshop Experience

Hello beauties!!! First of all ,please do accept my apologies for abandoning my blog forever!  A lot of things happened . There are personal, family and health issues that I seriously need to give attention to. And I am really sorry  for that. You don't have any idea how much  I miss blogging and chatting with you guys to share and talk about  beauty related stuffs. I am not promising but will try my very  best to keep in touch with you again.;) I hope you're all doing fine and remember that "Nothing is permanent in this wicked world not even our troubles." Have faith and believe in yourself;)

 Just to give a little treat to my stressful mom life,  I attended my first MAC Makeup Workshop yesterday which cost 250RM with fully redeemable items. The Makeup Artist Shahrum , really did a good job. He showed and  taught me how to apply the products that  suits well on my skintypes and skintones. Also , he has shared some tips on how to apply it accordingly; ) Now I know the secrets of the glowy fresh look  of those models in the runway!

Prior to apply the foundation, he applied first a Gel moisturizer all over my face which serves as a makeup base too. Then he applied a lip moisturizer to my lips to prevent it from chapping and to glide on the lipstick smoothly later.

Here are the products the that he used on me:

     ZA- Cosmetic.com Skin Beauty Liquid Foundation SPF 18.PA++ Shade 22/ Swatches

PROS:

• lightweight on face
• gives a natural and radiant look
• inexpensive
• mild pleasant scent
• blends nicely and evenly on skin
• doesn't oxidize

CONS:

• limited shades available
• sheer medium coverage 
• has a lower SPF value

MY EXPERIENCE:
This foundation just simply impresses me with the performance and the results it gives me. Its super lightweight and airy on face.. My skin is also prone to acne and pore clogging, so far , I didn't experience any breakouts and skin irritations with it.  I have just learnt from an SA , that ZA is a sisters company of Shiseido. Its cheaper because it was manufactured in Taiwan, but the formulation and technology came from the same brand which is the Shiseido Cosmetics from Japan. The coverage is in medium sheer. So if you are looking for a full coverage foundation, you might skip this one cause  it won't give you. But if you want a light and natural looking radiant finish, this one is a must have! You might still need a higher SPF value cause this one has only SPF 18.PA++.  Love it and will definitely try the other products they offer:) The best part is, its inexpensive but does a wonderful job. It was just frustating that they only have limited shades available, luckily I got one shade that matches well my skin tone.  This cost around Rm30++ from Watsons, and I bought it with 20% oFF coupon. 

AVAILABILITY:  Drugstores (Watsons)
PRICE:30ml/RM30+
RATINGS: B

Have a great weekend and Happy Hari Raya Raji my dear muslim friends:) keep safe and don't forget to join in my giveways! This is open to everyone, both  local and international! Good luck :)
