FOTD: Quikie Looks using NARS Duo Eyeshadows

I'm on an FOTD roll! Anyway here are two looks (that's right TWO) that I did over the weekend and actually wore out. I don't think I can walk with red lipstick just yet. It's still a bit overwhelming for my face still, or maybe I just need a better red lipstick that goes well with my skintone.


First up, NARS Balthazar...






I finished the look with a brown liner instead of a black one for a more natural approach.


For my cheeks, I used MAC Nuance blush. Anyway, I love, love NARS e/s. Super easy to blend!





It can't get anymore natural looking than that. I look like I have that California sun-kissed looked without baking under the sun. Chea!

Up next, is NARS Bohemian Gold. I honestly don't know why it's called Bohemian Gold when the picture doesn't even remotely look gold to me. But this one is a bit odd cuz it photographs looking like a brown shade, when it looks a bit peachy pink in the pan.



This was the look that I did on Friday for my bf's graduation. I tried to keep it as simple as possible.

I don't know why it looks like I packed some mad blush on when it hardly showed up in person.

    Girl - You look fine with braces. There are people who just cant pull off braces but ur fine with them on. When do you get them taken out? haha .. sorry i used to be a braceface too and i hated it -- i must say that i miss them though :[ sounds really stupid but -- i guess i kinda got used to them

  7. aww, you look cute with your braces on. Girl, when I had braces, it was just depressing..like..crack in the mirror when i looked at my reflection. haha

    I am sorry about your guy moving. It's soo hard. I mean, I have a long distance relationship and I don't know how I manage. Anyways, I love the Nars duo you used!! So pretty!!!

  12. In your very first photo, I thought you were Fuz for a sec! I saw a bit of resemblance but it was probably because of the eye makeup.

    I have Bohemian gold and I love it! Is that all you used? For some reason it looks so much darker and prettier on you! =(

    Aw congrats to your bf for graduating! =). He's moving back to Hawaii for good? Are you guys going to be long distance then?

    You probably know, but I was in a long distance relationship for a large portion of my life.. that's also a touchy subject haha. damn long distance..!

    He does look like a cartoon!!! Hahaha.

  14. Awww u guys look cute, congrats to u bf!

    I think u guys will make it through the long distance, it's hard work but if u work for it, it can happen. i'm rooting for u guys!

    Sorry we got disconnected from our last aim convo... i don't know why my aim disconnects on its own from time to time, weird.

    Aww ur bf is leaving end of november, i'm pretty sure u want to spend as much time with him as u can. We should totally hang out then, since i've postponed my test til the end of november.

    is ur bf planning on moving back to hawaii for good? or just temp?
