Looklet #001: Colorful Dress

I signed up last night for http://looklet.com/.
I was smitten by the idea that I could dress up the "model" by the the selection of clothes, shoes, accessories, etc. that they have.

I hate going to the mall. Don't get me wrong. I love to shop, but I don't enjoy the walking part. I just go to the mall if I need to buy a particular thing.. Too lazy to window shop...With the help of Looklet.com, it would give me an idea what to buy on my next trip to the mall.

One dress caught my attention. Gorgeous dress!

Then I realized I have one that kinda look like this also..

Please see photos below for comparison:

LOVE IT!

I've only worn this dress once. Only for this shoot actually. Some girls are interested to adopt her. Anyone else?:) Okay, let's do some auction. And may the best girl win.. If no one wins, I will keep her. Deal?

Yours,
Daintypinay

Makeup101: My Everyday Makeup

I am a very simple girl who believes that less is more. So don't overdo your makeup..
Since makeup is supposed to enhance our features and not to change our faces.. :P

Make sure that your face is clean before applying makeup.
Tone and Moisturize, baby..**I use Clean and Clear Toner & Moisturizer or Olay.

These are the simple steps on how I do my Everyday Makeup/Natural Look
with some of the favorite makeup products I use:
Simple as 1-2-3...

01. Concealer - To cover my under-eye circles I use Maybelline Perfect Concealer using my fingertips.

02. Foundation - I dot my face with any of the following Tinted Moisturizers using a makeup sponge.
*MAC Tinted Moisturizer* Elizabeth Arden Sheer Lights Tinted Moisturizer* Nivea Teint Delight Gel Foundation /Nivea Tinted Moisturizer (not on the photo)* Maybelline Wonder Finish Makeup (Nude)*Maybelline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation*

I super love tinted moisturizers.. I feel so pretty wearing them..:)

03. Pressed Powder - To give a beautiful finish and to keep my foundation stay longer I use Maybelline Clean Smooth Shine Free Face Powder.

04. Eyebrows - I use a brown powdered eyebrow shadow which I bought from the local drugstore using a handy flat angled eyebrow brush.

05. Eyeshadow - To shape, shadow and define my eyes for an impression that I want, I use Maybelline Eyestudio. Obviously, I overused the white shadow which I would frequently use as a highlight on my brows.

So for now, I am using this White Shadow Highlight for my brows. This is actually a Nose Shadow to give you an instant nose lift. I bought it from a Japanese store in Auckland for only 3NZ Dollar..lol. Sucker for cheap items, you bet..

06. Eyeliner - For a bigger and dramatic look, I use Rimmel London Black Brown Eye Pencil.

07. Mascara - I normally apply two thin coats of MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash after curling my eyelashes.

08. Blush On - I use MaxFactor Flawless Perfection Blush on the apple of my cheeks.

09. Bronzer - I love dabbing some MaxFactor Natural Minerals Bronzer for a touch of sunshine to make me look healthier and have that natural glow.

10. Lipstick & Gloss - Maybelline Water Shine Coverage #135 is suited on my skin tone so I like it a lot while Maybelline Superstay Gloss helps my lipstick not to melt easily.
