Sleek PPQ Me, Myself and Eye Look #2

Hello My Funky Readers,

Today's looks is also from a month ago. This time I tried to combine two shades in a different way, and also added a third shade as an eyeliner sort of way.

Pink Beret is surprisingly pigmented. Like amazingly so! I keep reaching for it along with Supernova... shame on me, but I can't help it :) I've also added another shade to my favorites, but I won't tell you what it is until I re-create some looks! (Although I bet you won't have any trouble guessing which one).

And a picture of my lips. Except I'm not sure what I've used... Whoops! But I know that I've done this combo before, so it is either a Gosh Lip Stain or MaxFactor Lip Stain along with one of Gosh lipglosses.

Have you been using this palette? Or are you waiting for spring? Since it is inspired by PPQ spring collection.

Sleek PPQ Me, Myself and Eye Look #1

Hello Everyone,

I got Sleek's Me, Myself, and Eye palette and while back. Well... actually I got it the second it was released, because I'm suck a Sleek palettes junkie, but that's besides the point right? Then I did some looks, then I disappeared into the schoolwork hell for a month, and didn't take pictures of all those looks. But since my schoolwork is not too bad right now, and I got my blogging mojo back, I'm here to rectify!

This look is over a month old, and since it was my first time using the palette I haven't figured out which shades I like yet. Although... I'm pretty spot on :)

I'm pretty disappointed with the Chris de Burgundy shade. It might look pretty pigmented in the pictures, but let me tell you it took a LOT to get there! I don't know if it's just my palette, but this shade is just so hard to use! It's like it doesn't want to be used :( Such a shame too, because it had the potential of being my favorite.

 Supernova on the lid, Pink Beret on the inner corner, and Chris de Burgundy as a statement. One of Collection 2000 Cream Puffs on my lips. At that time I still held hope that I will like them. Alas, the hope is now gone.

I didn't know at the time, but Supernova and Pink Beret will end up being my favorites. In fact, I've been using this palette for a week straight and I am yet to touch any other shades! Of course, I don't have any photos but I think I will recreate the looks. I even had random people comment on them. which is pretty cool.

Do you have this palette? If yes, what's your favorite shade?

Flapperesque Makeup Look 2

Hello my Funky Readers,

This is another look from July, pretty much the same thing as one I posted here, except instead of green from Sleek's Curacao I'm using my favorite red. The brown is from Wet n Wild I'm Getting Sunburned again.

I put a crazy amount of blush on, and honestly I kind of like it.

Creepy flapper ;P

I also tried to paint my lips smaller, which is something that is pretty hard for me to do. I always try to make my lips slightly bigger, because I always want that pretty pout. So for once I got it right!

What do you think?

Flapperesque Makeup Look 1

Hello Everyone,

I've done this look back in July but I didn't post it because it wasn't technically part of my 7 Days Palette series. I was just practicing a makeup look to wear to Hyper Japan.

It's really pretty simply. I only used two shades, brown from I'm Getting Sunburned by Wet n Wild, and green from Sleek's Curacao.

Oh and I love my hat! It's one of those hats that I saw and wanted immediately, regardless of the price. Out of all hats I own, this is the most authentic looking when it comes to flapper style hats (in my opinion).

Britain & Ireland Next Top Model LIVE 2011 Show

Hello my Funky Readers,

I'm sorry I've disappeared again. The thing is, when I get overwhelmed with stuff (schoolwork in this instance), I shut everything out and unfortunately my blogs are the first ones to go. Although this time, even Facebook didn't see me as often.... and that is pretty bad! I guess that's a side effect from 8 weeks long classes.

Anyways, yesterday two of my friends and I went to BINTM Live event. I didn't really know what to expect, but we figured why not! So off we went! :) I even have photos of me NOT wearing kimono. The event was fun, although I felt that it was just a glorified shopping event instead of Next Top Model event. The closest we got to the contestants was during the live catwalk show, which I enjoyed a lot. Other than that, Next Top Model was just used for the name. Still, I will most likely go back there next year.

Shoes are by Irregular Choice of course.

I decided to go a little more daring with the polka dot leggings, although it didn't turn out as daring as I thought! That should teach me to wear more fun things in the future :)

We got to try on designer dresses for free from WishWantWear.com, and had out photos taken by their photographer. This is the photo that I took with my phone, hence the socks! :P Hopefully I'll get better photos from the photographer soon! :)

The winner of 2011 season

Did any of you go?
