Makeover: Much Too Vamp

Clean your face & smile like a weird person (optional)

1. Prep & Apply

As for the usual, I put on my sunblock & Porefessional to minimize appearance of pores.


I used Revlon ColorStay as my foundation just because I haven't used it for such a long time. It was actually okay. Before then, I didn't like using this foundation because it was really thick but I've learned how to use it properly.



Apply concealer if the foundation didn't cover everything that needed to be concealed.


2. Fill Your Brows



3. Set It

For my oily skin, I really need to set it with powder. I used my Maybelline Loose Powder.



4. Base & Eye Shadow

I applied White eye pencil on my eyelid so that the color of the eye shadows will look really intense.



I used my H&M eye shadow palette.



I applied blue on the lid.


I then added black just above the blue eye shadow.


Blend upwards. You can also clean up the space just below your eyebrows by putting concealer.


I added a lighter shade of blue on my lower lash line.



5. Apply eye liner.



6. Contour


Apply a brown shade on the parts of your face you want to push back.


6. Blush

Apply to your cheeks.


7. Apply a dark lip color

I used Wet 'n Wild's Vamp It Up


Yeah, I'm sorry for my dry & chapped lips. Oh yeah, I also forgot to put on lip liner. 


7. Eye Lashes

Curl your lashes and then put on mascara. Not the other way around.

Makeover: Blue Eyes & Blue Hair

As for the usual Olay moisturising lotion, Benefit Cosmetics Porefessional, 
Graftobian Desert Sand Cream Foundation & Cinema Secrets Concealer


1. Apply your moisturizer & primer.

2. Put on your foundation.

Have I stressed enough how amazing the Graftobian concealer is? If not, it is totally amazing. Don't worry if you have blemishes because the foundation covers discolorations or pimples.

3. Conceal your blemishes.


If your foundation couldn't hide imperfections, put your concealer and blend.



4. Apply black eye shadow all over the lid except the middle part.




5. Apply Blue eye shadow in the middle part.

I used Barry M Dazzle Dust. I unearthed it from my make up stash. I did not know it existed! I have been reading on these lipsticks by Barry M that I'm dying for. I guess I'll have to settle for eye shadows and then save up for the Barry M lipsticks.





6. Line your upper lash line with Blue eyeliner.

You can actually use a blue eye shadow if you do not have a blue eyeliner. Just use a thin wet brush. 






7. Curl your lashes and then apply mascara.



8. Fill in your eye brows with brown eye shadow.



9. Set your foundation with pressed/mineral powder.

I always use my matte revlon colorstay foundation because I tend to get really oily. It prevents shine on my t-zone.




10. Contour & Blush

You can actually not contour anymore. But if you want to sculpt your face, do so. For a more detailed contouring tutorial, click this.



11. Put pink lipstick.

I used H&M Pink Fool. I really love H&M's lipstick line.
