HMUA Work : Shereen's Yearbook Pictorial Look

I haven't been really accepting clients for hair & makeup services the past few months due to my busy schedule and my shifting to baking but this is a special case. This lovely lady is a close friend's  lil sis" so I made an exemption. She had her yearbook pictorial yesterday and I felt the same amount of excitement for it as if I were graduating all over again!
Here's the list of products I used on her.

P1k Makeup Challenge

Last month, I was tagged by the lovely Bing Castro of The Project Awesome to do the P1k (one thousand peso) makeup challenge. The rules are pretty simple. All I had to do was create a full face look using products that fit in a P1k budget. The biggest catch? Makeup tools will also be included in the said budget! My heart skipped a beat upon learning this because ever since I started applying my makeup with actual tools, I've rarely used my hands or Q-tips for makeup application. Nevertheless, I wanted to do the makeup challenge/
I used the following products : San San Matte Finish Liquid Foundation - P100 *sale* San San Powder - P100 *sale* Ever Bilena Pencil - P75 MUA Artiste Collection Palette - P400 Depotted NYX Round Lipstick - P180 ELF Lengthening & Defining Mascara - P100 *sale*
TOTAL - P955!!! Totally passed the challenge!!!

Smokey Peacock Eyes with Wet N Wild ColorIcon Palettes!

It's been a while since I last posted anything that was "makeup tutorial" related but since I'm back to making YouTube videos, I've decided to make a new tutorial as part of the Wet n Wild Coloricon palettes series. Please bare with me on the speedy video at the end of this post. I'm still trying to get my mojo back with YouTube videos.  This look was created using Wet n Wild Coloricon palettes which are really affordable and are of great quality. The colors remind me of a male peacock's colorful tail hence the look is called Smokey Peacock. It's a playful twist on the usual dark smokey eye look. Face : Celeteque Moisturizer MAC Studio Fix Fluid - NC35 Encara BB Cream Ever Bilena Powder Foundation - Oriental Garnier BB Roll On Eyebrows : ELF Eyebrow Kit - Dark Eyes : NYX Eyshadow Base - Skintone Wet n Wild ColorIcon Palettes - Lust, Pride, Greed, Vanity Wet n Wild Liquid Eyeliner - Black Revlon Plumping Mascara - Black Cheeks : ELF Blush & Contour Kit ELF HD Blush - Headliner NYX Powder Blush - Mauve Mememe Liquid Highlighter Lips : Maybelline Baby Lips MAC Lipstick - Please Me Nails : China Glaze - For Audrey
