Smokey Chartreuse - A Daytime Makeup Look

Hello ladies, how are you doing? hope you guys are well happy and playing with makeup just like me. I am recovering well from my flu bug. Created another look with my recent purchase; Sleek Makeup i-Divine Garden of Eden Palette. I am so so in love with the palettes, the colors are just vibrant and the payoff is amazing. I did do several layering and trust me the colors just blended so well and gave me the look that I was wanting to achieve. 


You can achieve this fool-proof smokey eye just like mine or even better with this palette. You can never go wrong. I am actually wearing this look for the second time, this time I wanted more drama and vibrancy and I added the color Gates of Eden on the inner corner on my lids. Just like that the shade is going to be my wearable daytime gold color. 

The color payoff may vary based on the type of primer that you are applying. The more brighter/whiter the base/primer the more lighter the eye shadow will appear. I used the Urban Decay eye primer in the shade original. As I wanted very little attention (do you trust me?) on the eye. Actually that is the only eye primer that I have.

I wore this look close to 6 hours and the eye makeup did not crease as much. So my ladies invest in good primers. The flashies are from Forever21.  After priming my lids I used the shade Flora all over my crease and the out corners of my eyes. In the middle I applied the shade Tree of Life in as the base and topped it up with a mixture of shades (Fauna, Evergreen & Fig) and on the inner corners of my lids the mighty gold shade - Gates of Eden. You need to blend, blend and blend away those harsh color dividers. I used the same brush that I used to to pick up the shade Flora to blend the crease area and the connecting area between gold and green and green and brown.

Added the Loreal Black Lacquer Eyeliner with the tinniest wing over the lash band. No mascara needed for this look. The flashies were nice and thick. For the face I kept everything minimal. Tried out Daiso Ellefar Princess Duo Color Cheek for the first time. Embarrassing moment is about to be revealed, I never owned a blush and this is my first one. I am definitely going to get a good one soon. Any recommendation? I am eyeing the Zoeva Blush Palette. 


Is a coralish -pink blush and a peach highlighter. I really like the color payoff. Is suitable for looks that needs just the right amount of pinkness and highlights not an over powering spectrum. It makes the cheeks pop without much product. Since I don't own any blush I think it just works well for the price range. I mean I couldn't ask for more. 

I was featured in Instagram and on Ricedolls beauty page and I am so so happy and grateful for that.

Nesting

 Dear Readers and Friends, Is time to dust the pages of this blog again. Much needed activity now that things are so much in order in my personal life. Well I have found home in places, I once thought will never be possible again. On top of everything, I have found home in me. Cliché much, well I don't think so....haha. When you take the right amount of rebirths..many many....then you will rediscover you over and over again. Fear has subsided, wholeness has started to take form. I may have started this blog 10 years ago. A younger self who had dreams as wide as the ocean....she never equipped herself to fight the rough tides. She got hit one too many times. Ended up in an island of hope, not knowing that both land waters houses challenges. Determined, she did make the island her fort, her safe space, her sweet spot... Forgetting the ocean for dreams, never thinking of going back to the waters to continue her quest. Her blessed heart, brought her wise words from her fairy-god-mother

What is Healing? - Self Acceptance

Happy Day Wishes, Incase you decided to stop by and take glance at my blog....I thank you and welcome you to my post that was crafted during my lunch break. I have been doing a lot of research on healing and living behind past traumas and trying understand how life is going to be after you heal ( that too if you do! ). I have tried multiple ways and carried out several exercises to change my thinking, mindset, speech and how i treat people and situations that I am caught it. One minute I was a saint, the exact next minute I was Hulk - SMASH was the only word running and ruling my mind. All I could do after that is, hurl to my bed, hug my pillow over my face and scream and cry all at the same time. Have you done that ? Well, my mind as become a spacious playground and my thoughts creates chains of thoughts....No not overthinking, healthy thinking! I don't visit problems and device multiple solutions, I take a deep dive into why and how it started in the first place. That made me rea

Physical Disability is No Disability of the Mind & Will

Real People, Real Stories; Featuring Khairul  Nizam  the founder of Jamumall Sdn. Bhd. I am delighted, honored and also inspired to write about a soul that doesn't know the meaning of the word "GIVING UP" .  We tend to complain mostly about the things or environment that we are not blessed with. We tend to sideline everything good our creator, parents and many of life's teachings that we are generously given. Often, we overuse our power to procrastinate but never really fully utilize the ability to  express our gratitude for the blessings we have and received in life. I personally do procrastinate, complain and constantly debate that life is not treating me kind. I never actually realized, that I am exactly where I am today of my own doings.  If the doings are of any good, I would be able to live my life to the fullest and struggle would me nothing but a stepping stone to greater success to me. Here is an inspiring story of Mr. Khairul Nizam the fou
