HOW TO : Eyeliner-like Eyeshadow Look

Hey! Last night (or the night before. Idk. Some nights ago!) I saw a pinterest post of an eyemakeup look and I decided to recreate it! 

This eyeshadow look has a pointed end and totally dark on the outer area of the eye. I think this look is really easy to recreate, and it's fun! It has an enlarging effect even without eyeliner :p 


            1.            

First, apply a beige / skin colored shimmer shadow and apply it all over your lid.


            2.            

Now, apply an warm tone brown / orange / or any mid tone shade you like, filling only the half of the lids. And also bring it to the lower lash, filling on the half side with the same shade.


             3.            

Take a darker shade, here I'm using an espresso shade, run it over the shade before. Blend it, but don't over blend because you still want to have that contrast effect between the 2 shades.


            4.            

Now, taking my angled brush, dipping it into a matte black shade, I outlined the sharp edge, just like I would do with my eyeliner! 


            5.            

Fill in the outline with the matte black shadow, leave the end side darker and gradually blended to the inner corner. This step is really easier than how it looks! Just make sure that the end is darker!


            6.            

Last step! Highlight the inner corner with a shimmery light beige color. Then curl your lashes and apply your favorite mascara and you are done! 


I totally dig on how the look turned out! It's really easier than what I thought it will be! I think this look is dramatic, but subtle in the same time. I'll definitely gonna do this look again as I usually depend on my black eyeliner all the time. And that's not healthy! :p


What do you guys think? Will you recreate this look?

REVIEW : Too Cool For School's Hot Girl Lip Sticker Lipstick in #2 Hawaiian Flower

Hey! (PS. for Indonesian reader, I have a giveaway going on >> bit.ly/MSCgiveaway)

Today I'm going to review a product from Too Cool From School! I'm sure you guys have heard of this brand - not only because the name is pretty catchy, this brand is famous for their school-themed packaging and their multi-function products. Looking at their store, it doesn't look like a beauty makeup store, but more like quirky and fun stationary store filled with colourful pencils and markers.


      BRAND      
Too Cool For School

      PRODUCT NAME      
"Hot Girl Lip Sticker"

        type of product        
lipstick

        shade        
#2 Hawaiian Flower

      PRICE      
2.0g / KRW 8.000






This product is not a new product from Too Cool For School, I've always see it on display as it's also one of their best-selling product. Come on, how can you resist on it's cute plaid design and the compact size? This time I didn't buy this by myself ;; my friend, Natasha bought this for me as a gift from her Singapore trip :p 

The lipstick is in a mini size, very cute and compact but still contain a decent amount of product. The shade that I was given is #2 Hawaiian Flower - a bright pink fuchsia colour. It's sooo me, this is a colour that I gravitate toward if I'm to wear bright vivid coloured lipstick. 

One thing that I notice, because the small-ness of the product, applying the lipstick can be so precise and detailed without lip brush. Especially working with such a bright colour as this! (Easy to make gradation lips look too!) 



The finish of this lipstick is definitely not matte, but not too glossy too. And it glides easily - without accentuating any lip lines. The pigmentation is good too, even though the colour is bright and vivid, it's still wearable for daily use! 



Whenever I put a lip balm before, the colour didn't stain my lips - but if i skipped lip balm, it seems that the lipstick lightly stained my lips. And honestly, I love the stain colour! Because it's like a soft version of this shade - atleast it didn't disappear completely or I would totally look super pale when it wiped off. 

There's nothing special about its lasting power. It didn't stay after a meal, but it didn't feather out everywhere. I can just easily reapply (and reapplying is easy because the stick surface is small so off we go!) 


Good Pigmentation
Glides on the lips
Didn't accentuate any lips line
Staining on the lips
Easy to apply, defined and detailed application is possible
Compact size, cute packaging


none!
(I got this for free maybe that's why I had such a good experience with the lipstick
but really I LOVE THE SHADE)



Overall, the lipstick is not just amazing product, but the shade is just so me that I can't skip a day without wearing this. lol. And the lipstick size fit perfectly to my makeup pouch! 

Have you ever tried any product from "Too Cool For School"? :D
