makeup monday: blush shades

I'm wearing Maybelline Mineral Power in Rose I'm wearing Mark. blush from natural palette Blush colors: from left to right E.L.F in Coral Mark. Natural Palette Mark. Clutch on the go palette Maybelline dream bouncy blush in pink frosting Maybelline minerals power in rose Mark. Clutch on the go palette (2nd color) My many different blush color choices thru the seasons. I choose coral and neutral colors during the summer and when the fall/winter come I change to pinks and rose colors. My skin is a medium tone and rose/pink colors look best. If you are a lighter skin tone (like Emma Stone or Rachel McAdams) I would go with apricot to coral pink colors for a natural look. Hope you have a magnificent week!

Awesome: -seeing The Lorax in 3D with my little cousin Na and the boyfriend. -finding out that despicable me 2 is coming soon! - TARHEELS BEAT THOSE DOOKIES!! -March Madness begins! LETS GO TARHEELS! Happy Monday!

2NE1 Sandara Park Etude poster

pic from allkpop.com 2NE1's Sandara Park (Pop singer) is featured in a new cosmetic poster. She is super cute. I tried to copy her look. Holding a pout for the camera is not very easy. Sandara makes this look so cute and simple. During my photos, I could not hold a cute pout without being goofy and messing the pic. I noticed she had brown eyeshadow, coral pink lips, and pink cheek bones. I'm wearing mark makeup not Etude (which is what brand she has on). Eyes& Cheeks: mark color and clutch to go Lips: Glow baby glow in pink crush and Revlon lip butter in peach parfait

makeup monday: mark on the runway

Just wanted to share the excitement of fashion week! Mark makeup was spotted on the runway of Rebecca Minkoff Fall preview 2012. Now my makeup for V-Day. The boyfriend took me to see The Vow this past weekend. I was so proud he went to see it with me, because not a lot of men in the audience for this one. For our date and because it was for V-Day my makeup had a theme. I went for a taupe eyelid, pink cheeks, and pink lips for a sweet look. Eyes: Maybelline 24 hr eyeshadow in Tough as Taupe Cheeks: Mark clutch palette "pink colored" Lips: Revlong colorburst in baby pink   And my outfit. Warning! I'm bit of a nerd. You like the super hero shirt? HAHA! My rebellious and lazy me put this together.   Shirt: Oldnavy Pants: Marshalls Boots: Rack Room    

mondays with mark: a fresh faced look

Not ready, but okay sure lol. I was trying to take pics...however I felt like being goofy instead. Face: mark concealer & mark Min-A-Real Cream-To-Powder Foundation with Mineral Pigments Eyes: I-Mark on the dot neutral palette Loreal Mascara Cheeks: Mark clutch palette Lips: Revlon Lip butter in berry  This is my daily look right now. A fresh faced, minimul makeup look. To create a fresh face look: apply concealer under the eyes, any imperfections and blend. Then apply powder foundation all over face. Then apply blush on the apples of your cheeks, don't apply on cheekbone just the apples. Apply Mascara, nude lipgloss, and nude eyeshadow.

It's been a busy holiday weekend. Did not do too much other than eating and enjoying our presents. I'm having lots of fun with a photo frame that displays various images saved on the sd card.

date night beauty and fashion...video!

I am excited and nervous to introduce this date night look. This is the first video of my makeup and fashion. Thank you Hoa for giving me the courage to do this. I'm seriously shy. Wierd right? I cringe at the thought of doing these types of videos. So I hope that you all enjoy it! If this turns out good, you can expect more. Check it out and like or leave some sweet comments for me. Thank you again for all of the love and support! note: i am not a makeup artist. Just in case you are interested, swatches of Corset and the Neutral color I used up close! Corset is a dark black color, but I lightly applied it in this tutorial.

last minute holiday look

Usually today would be about my personal style. However it is yucky outside and I procrastinated. So hopefully next week I will be back on track. No worries I brought a makeup look for you all. I was inspired to wear a holiday look out today. I wanted to be festive while dropping gifts off to friends and family who will be missed on Christmas. I did a simple neutral eye color with red lips. My camera did not do this look justice. The lip color was so much more red than this. I was proud of myself for going bolder. Eyes: mark on the dot palette in neutral. I used the light color on the inner part of my eyes and shaded a darker brown on the outer. I also shaded the lower inner corner of my eyes to open it up! I love doing that. Lips: Revlon lip butter in berry smoothie and Mark lip click in cha cha.  I mixed the two colors so that I would not have crazy red lips. Using two different shades helps tone down the red. It was a really pretty red, however the camera did not d...

mondays with mark: NYE look

 I still have not finished my shopping. It will be gift cards for everyone left. I am exhausted running around during this time of year. Now with Christmas winding down I will try posting New Years Eve (NYE) looks. When I think of NYE makeup glitter, sparkle, sequins all come to mind. Every year we have a get together with a couple of friends and family. We ring in the New Year with lots of drinking and playing games. So fun! Anyone have any amazing NYE plans? Here is a look that is somewhat familiar. The gold/yellow and black eye makeup I have done in the past. This time around there is a little sparkle in there. I'm not sure you can tell by the photos, but yellow sparkle dust was added to my lids on top of my eye makeup. Eyes : Mark super flip for it in taxi and black tie. NY color shimmering loose in sunshine. Loreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara, Blackest Black Cheeks : Nars in orgasm Lips : Revlon peach parfait lip butter Giveaway winner... The g...

checking my list twice

Christmas is almost here! I cannot believe that it is so near. This past weekend I tried to finish my shopping. I have four more people to get done. Hopefully it will be finished this weekend. I lack timing this year on gift giving. There are so many things going on. It felt crazy trying to get everyone from my list done on Sunday. I had made a horrible choice of wearing fashion forward shoes. I am left with blisters and a lesson learned. We accomplished going to five different shopping places which included the mall, Sam's club, Wal-mart, Kohl's and Magic mart. I have more ill feelings towards Wal-mart than before. With the crazy holiday crowd everyone has amnesty. To avoid crazy people, a great choice would be online shopping. My Mark. online store ^_^! (at the top of my page) The makeup I wore on Sunday can be a great holiday party look. I like this natural yet festive look. It was inspired from Joan Small . I did  not go too dark on the liner, however you can. Al...

mondays with mark: holiday look

Eyes: Mark on the dot palette in neutrals Cheeks: NARS Orgasm Lips: glow baby glow in blow kisses Nails: sally hansen in red carpet With a lot of holiday parties here I wanted to do a look for the occassion. I think the most popular look is the red pout. It's very easy and with the right red color you are set for the party. I chose a red lip gloss. The color is not too bold. I get nervous with the color red. Wearing red colors is trial and error for me. This red lip gloss is perfect for me! If you are nervous about red, this gloss is a great start! With red lips it is best to go with lighter blush colors and eye shadows. I went with a peachy blush and brown/dark brown eyeshadows. I always go with neutral colors with bold lips. With bold eye shadows I choose neutral shade of lips. What holiday look will you be wearing? Hope you enjoyed this! Thank you for reading. Please like and follow my blog ^_^ Oh PS the boyfriend wanted a spotlight in ...

mondays with mark: Genii MV inspired

Thanksgiving passed too fast! Did it not? I hope everyone enjoyed being with family and friends. Don't forget today is cyber Monday and Mark has deals still going on til midnight! Go to my store and check that out. *** Today I was inspired to do a look by one of the ladies from Lao pop group Genii. Her name is Thiphasone Tpv. (Let me know if I got the wrong name.) These three girls are gorgeous and talented. Check out there latest music video "Bor sai jai tee huk hao job." It is very feminine and fairy tale like. I was attracted to Thiphasone's makeup the most. She has a wing eyeliner (my fave), a pale pink cheek,and girly pink lips. See below my inspired look. (screenshots of Genii are from facebook and youtube) Overall this look is one of my favorites. It makes a great day time look! This look would work on anyone too. Products used: *get all these from my mark store* eyes: on the dot neutrals lips: glow baby glow in girly girl eyes/cheeks: showcase color...
