11.18.2010 Beauty

I was really trying to keep a daily routine of my posts, but I couldn't do it. Maybe next month. I have found new uses for my sturdy hair clip tape in my first picture below. It is so sturdy, I can hold my hair up in a bun. And I've discovered that I can use it while sleeping without it hurting my head, so I could get loose natural looking waves the next day.

And so I also did my face today, and realized that it took all of these products to get it the way it looks. Seems like a stretch. I wanted to try and emphasize my Pop Beauty palette, but that was kind of hard. I mainly only used three of the colors. A peach, one of the main pinks, and the brown part which is supposed to be an eyeliner color. This palette is called "Smoked Out Gold," but it should really be called, "Sheer Pinks." I did a brown smokey look which I mainly achieved using my small bit of Black Brown Covergirl eyeliner (which I can't even seem to find in my picture below) that I smudged. And I got to use my Benefit's Benetint. I might think twice now after looking at my pictures and noticing how light my face is compared to my neck, and it might be because of the Palladio powder I dusted my face with.

Check out my new hair accessory. Actually, it's another one of my newest asian product obsessions. It's actually similar to the hair velcro clips I got. It holds snuggly on my hair through velcro. I was in the Clairemont area today and stopped by Marukai again. It's ridiculous what I had bought. I also bought another one of the hair velcro clips that I already have, but this time I got the pink ones. They're actually not so expensive. And well, that was pretty much it.

I never really touch up during the day unless I'm at home, and obviously need it. So these are my eyes at the end of the day. I think it's the primer that kept it from creasing. I also didn't wear eyeliner today and I'm liking it.

I just recently started watching this amazing youtuber beauty guru name ChefCaffy. And I love her gradual change. She used to wear braces and then got them off. Cut her hair, dyed it. She looks so hip and stylish. And she likes food. In some of her beauty tutorial videos, she uses these really cute hair accessories I used to think were handmade barrettes, but is really a clever Asian product. They're these pieces of fabric velcro that pull your hair back without messing it up. Not only are they so useful, they're so cute and colorful. ChefCaffy has them in orange and purple. I am now on a search to find these!
