hey beauties. Holidays are over and its back to work time !!!
In Malaysia Hari raya Aidilfitri / Eid is generally observed by many of our Muslim brothers and sisters. So there's usually a 4-5days holidays. Its festive every where and one can feel it in the air. Last year Eid, my hubby and I went to Langkawi Islands. See pics here . But this year we decided to kind of stay here in KL and chill around.
On Saturday, I went out with my hubby for shopping. Bought few stuffs from Elianto, Sephora and Watsons.
On Sunday, we went out with our friend for a fun evening.
Both the days I was wearing same makeup. This look is a gorgeous easy smokey eyes which you can wear at anytime. I can totally flaunt this look every single day and I did it for two days :)

• Prime your eyes.
• Take a COPPER eyeshadow and apply it all over the lid.Drag it towards the inner corner of the inner eye lid.
• Now take a crease brush and take some PURPLE shade and apply it on the crease and blend it upwards.
• Next take a PLUM shade and apply it on the outer V and blend it well with the PURPLE.
• Line the lower lash line with the PLUM shade.
• Line the upper lash line and water line with a BLACK liner.
• Apply coats of mascara and your eyes are done.

FOR CHEEKS

My Current Favourites : Makeup !!!

hey gorgeous !!!
After posting my Current Skin care, Body care and Hair care favourites here , lets see my Current Makeup Products.

I tried but the pic is still uploading inverted. SORRY :(

Kuala Lumpur is HOT I mean very very hot.I have tanned alot these days and so I have been using my Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Toast alot. Its a darker shade and goes on well when I am tanned. Its a medium to full coverage foundation. And stays all day. Even if I go out in sun, my makeup looks perfect and in place.No melting no messy.

                                      

For my cheeks, I am totally in love with these two babies. TheBalm blush in FRAT BOY and Daiso Multi cheek blush in PINK. Frat boy is a Peachy Pink blush and is kind of matte. On the other hand Multi cheek is more of a PINK highlighter. I switch between these two blushes and both of them give me a nice healthy glow with some color. See my complete review on Frat Boy here 

I got a perfect shade for my eyebrows. Elianto Ardour shadow in EARTH BROWN. Its matte and perfect dark brown. Neither reddish nor blackish. Just a perfect fill for my brows.

I have been sticking on to neutral eyes this month (woah if its not for a FOTD post :) ). So here's what I am reaching for. My Silkygirl Duo shadow in Mocha Latte. Its soft, creamy, blend-able and pigmented.
See my full reviewon Silkygirl Duo Eyeshadows here 

But for some Pop-up, I use my Silkygirl Funky Eyelights Pencil in Ocean Blue.

You can read my review on Silkygirl Funky Eyelights Pencil here

For lips, its a mixture of all shades of PINKs. Hot pink - Rimmel's CUTTING EDGE [See review here ] Subtle Pink - Silkygirl Gloss-on Lipcolor in SOFT PLUM [See review here ] and Neon Pink - Silkygirl Moisture Rich Lipcolor in ROMANTIC.

The Balmology : Mary - Lou Manizer Luminizer Review

This is my fourth The Balm product.
First was HOT MAMA here , second was CABANA BOY here, third was FRAT BOY here and now its MARY - LOU MANIZER aka the LUMINIZER.
As the name suggests its an universal highlighter i.e. can be used any where you want a nice glow.
Well I was really looking for a highlighter from the longest time and then after reading tons of positive review about this product and obviously after my great experience with the balm products, I made my mind to buy the Mary-Lou manizer. But to my luck whenever I went to Sasa or several Sasas this was out of stock.
Finally I got my hands over this product. Ok so long story short finally the Mary-Lou Manizer is caught ;)

PACKAGING and AVAILABILITY

• Oh my !! look at this cute Mugshot packaging. I just love theBalm packaging.Its amazing.
• It comes with a decent size mirror and has a tons of product in there.
• Its retails for rm 72 at SASA (but I got in for 50rm woo hoo offer offer).

MY VERDICT 

• Its a beautiful soft shimmering champagne with golden micro shimmers.
• Its shimmery but not glittery or heavy or like the one which makes you look like disco ball. It gives you a nice glow.
• It gives a noticeable glow on any skin tones.
• Its highly pigmented so a slight tap of brush is enough. You need to tap the tiniest amount and blend it on to the area you want to highlight.
• Caution : Do not use a heavy hand cause this may attract attention to some imperfections like pores or fine lines. But if you apply it with a light loose hand and blend it well, it can give you a lovely shine.
• It has a smooth texture which is not powdery and blends easily.
• This is an universal highligher.I use it on my cheekbones, on the inner corner of  my eyes, and some times over a eyeshadow to give a nice shimmer look.

OK???? weird face but this was the only pic that showed the glow :)

Its a HIT for me and I love to catch the MARY-LOU MANIZER :)
