Yume-chan posted not too long ago about Poupee Girl, a Japanese website where you create a character and earn ribbons to buy her fashion and beauty accessories by dressing her up daily, uploading your own photos of your fashion-beauty-related goodies and leaving comments for others. While it's a Lost-in-Translation adventure navigating around the site since most of it is in Japanese (what are the shells for, Yume-chan?), some of it is in English and I'm sure you'll be able to figure out most of it! If you want an invite (done through e-mail), just comment me with your e-mail because we'd each earn 30 ribbons when you sign up through a friend's e-mail invitation.
A couple of months ago I'd gotten samples from shopping at Ohayo, and only recently realized that two were Hanskin bb cream samples! I tried the Hanskin Caviar Gold BB Cream first.
It blended nicely but it is a very fair color. I'd show you a pic but you'd think I was Casper or a Noxzema girl (remember those? haha). So instead I used MAC MSF Natural and MAC bronzer over it and did a brown look.
What I used:
♥ MAC MSF Natural in Medium Plus
♥ MAC bronzer in Refined Golden
♥ K-Palette 1-Day Tattoo Eyeliner (winter edition)
and...
Visee x ViVi collabo eyeshadow palette...very shimmery and pretty
Canmake Cheek Gradient in 05 Chocolate Stripe...also shimmery!
Lancome L'Extreme mascara (didn't work too well for me though...damn straight Asian lashes!)
NARS in Hustler
Nude Bon Bon nail polish (surprise gift from Yumeko, very pretty!)
Nude Bon Bon nail polish (surprise gift from Yumeko, very pretty!)
I've noticed that I tend to lean towards smokey eyes and nude/pale lips, so I wanted to try something different. I usually don't wear darker lip colors (I'm a nude and pale pink/peach lip gloss kinda gal) but this NARS one came out more sheer in pictures, not bad. Looks like it's time for me to dye my hair again...that's one of the drawbacks of having had highlights, the dye on those parts of my hair fade and become much lighter than the rest of my hair. Sorry I didn't have time to curl or flat iron my hair.
