I'm turning 25 in two weeks. Yes... My birthday is coming
soon. And you know what they say when you turn 25 - you need to start using a
good anti-aging moisturizer to keep your skin from aging! With that being said,
does it mean that 25 is the age when you can truly call yourself an official
adult?
I remember back in highschool, I used to have this fear of
growing old. I can't imagine myself having saggy and wrinkled skin which led
to, ultimately, wishing I'd die before that comes! But as time passes by, I
have realized that there's nothing really bad about growing old. It's actually
a fun experience and transition as long as you know how to take care of
yourself well, not just when that transition shows up in your life, but even
when you're still young.
For this makeup look, I have decided to go for a subtle pink-ish effect on my eyes and cheeks and going back to that black brows! Wicked!
PRODUCTS USED:
FACE: Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Soft
Beige | SanSan Pressed Powder in shade 01 | SanSan Cheek Blusher in Rosy Blush
EYES: SanSan Kohl Eyeliner in Black | Blingtone Eyeshadow in
Pink Champagne | SanSan CYO Eyeshadow in Warm Copper Fire | Clinique High
Impact Mascara in Black
LIPS: Crazy Rumors Lip Balm in Peppermint Twist | NYX Round
Lipstick in Heredes
HOW I DID IT:
First, I used the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte
Foundation in Soft Beige as my foundation by squeezing some of the product at
the back of my hand and then applied it on my face by dots and blended it well.
I tried to keep it a bit lighter than my usual foundation routine to maintain
that fresh and natural look, still. Then, I sealed the foundation using my SanSan
Pressed Powder in shade 01.
For my eyes, I used the SanSan Kohl Eyeliner in Black to
fill my brows. I'm going back to black brows for this look because black brow
are supposed to make you look younger; hence the kind of look I'm trying to
sport here. Then, I used the Blingtone Eyeshadow in Pink Champagne all over my
lids, which is a shimmery pink eyeshadow, and then the SanSan CYO Eyeshadow in
Warm Copper Fire for my crease area. Then, I curled my lashes and used the Clinique
High Impact Mascara in Black on them.
For the finishing touches, I used the SanSan Cheek Blusher
in Rosy Blush on my cheeks and the Crazy Rumors Lip Balm in Peppermint Twist on
my lips topped by the NYX Round Lipstick in Heredes.
Time passes by so fast. There would be times when we think
and feel like it's quite hard to catch up. Live life by the moment and do what
makes you happy. As for me, I guess I'm happy right now. Things may not be
perfect in my life but I am happy with the choices I've made and lessons I have
learned along the way. You live, you love, and you learn... That's just how it
goes.
You look booming here! :) So far I don't think you still need anything anti- aging, but then again that's just me. ;) cheers and advance happy birthday! :)
