Summer haze

I guess I was inspired by the spring and summer- in every aspect in fashion...we see very bold colors and textures on the fabric patterns, even the make-up is bright and colorful. This make-up is my little escape from this winter.

There will be a video for this one, so stay tuned.

Color burst / Creative artistic look / La nostra infinita abnegazione

-*-

This is my newest look, which is inspired by a very talented watercolorist Agnes Cecile's artwork "La nostra infinita abnegazione'' ("Our endless devotion'') , I found this particular artwork very moving and inspiring, so I created very artistic and chaotic shapes, lines and colors. I think I saw her video of speed painting this artwork on youtube.Here

There will be a video up soon, not a tutorial but just showing it off.

And this is the least 'artistic' mess I could make..happens everytime

Chanel Rouge Allure Laque Dragon no 75 / My first review and swatches!

So I just recently got back from my trip to Hong Kong. I bought a few good items on sale like Chanel and Revlon, but that is another story, as I am SO thrilled for this Rouge Allure Laque Dragon no 75 from Chanel. I've heard many good things about this lipgloss / lipstick, so I am exited to do my first review of it as I just got it in the mail.

The sad thing is that it is now DISCONTINUED..(what?) it's such a great lipstick with it's unique and rich color, so why would Chanel discontinue it?

So hurry if you still want to get this, as there is a few places that still sell it (google is your best friend) OR I found THIS SITE

I personally managed to get it from ebay even with less price than in stores. ($32.00 - 0.20 fl.oz. ; 6ml) bought it only for $29.99.

About Dragon:

From Chanel I expected an incredible quality, because the brand name demands it in any way, and I can truly say that this lipstick has it.

• It works really well with my fair skin tone .
• It glides on just perfect and you don't need much amount of a product, because a little goes a long way.
• It is incredibly pigmented and smooth and it has like a satin, slightly glossy finish.
• It stains the lip and stays on for a long time, it has amazing wearability.

Although I didn't find it easy to apply it with the tip of the applicator, instead I slided on a tiny amount of Dragon and just used my favourite lip brush to blend it out.

This is a very bold, vibrant, intense and sexy red.

Sophisticated and gorgeous. A true red, if you will.

Gradient lips

Transition / Gradient / Ombre lips

Ok, the video is almost up, but here's just more pictures and info..like products I used and other good stuff ;)

Products used:

Urban Decay black eyeliner pencil ZERO

Illamasqua lipstick DISCIPLE

Gosh lip liner pencil VELVET TOMATO

17 lipstick HOT CHILLI

Urban Decay glide on pencil ELDORADO

Victoria Secret lipgloss MY CHERRY AMOUR

Benefit lipgloss ZONE OUT

The thing is that these lips can be very versatile, you can use whatever colors you want .. two, three even four.. it's up to you if you want a matt look or maybe add a gloss.

The thing is it's not very wearable of course if you play in neutrals, but I prefer to keep it simple on the eyes anyways, that's why I "bleached" out my brows and just added some vaseline on the lids, to make them look glossy.

I think this look is more editorial than I expected.. oh and dramatic eyelashes..they always suit just about anything . Anyways.. blending is the key. With a good lip brush, do more like small strokes and take your time!
