Inspired 60's makeup look with a twist!

So this week... It's hospital week.  I only work part-time from Thursdays thru Saturdays.  So sadly I wasn't able to join in the other days, but today was inspired by the 60's and 70's trend.  I didn't have any outfits, I decided to go for makeup look.  And this is what I came up with....

A winged cut crease with a pop of color, in that case I pick aquamarine.  

I have such a small eye lid space that I had to recreate my own.

Tomorrow which will be Friday is Halloween in May! How exciting!!!!

Frankie Rose haul

Hello my fellow bloggers!

I'm so very sorry that I haven't been posting any blogs the past few weeks.  I have out sick and sort of lazy to even write on my blog.  BUT last week I received my Frankie Rose Cosmetics in the mail.

The Frankie Rose team had given me a card with note plus additional 10% off on my next purchase.  Which was very nice of them, thanks again!

Cute wrapping.

So I got 4 items in their face line collection.  Liquid matte foundation, powder foundation, secret Concealor and face primer.

The Frankie Rose team had wrote a note for me.  Just letting me know that they had ran out of my size in the shirt, but they were able to send me two different sizes, large tank top and medium shirt.  How awesome is that! Thanks Frankie Rose team.

I'll be testing these products and will give my full review on what I think about the products sometime in the next two weeks or less.  So stay tune for that!  And also I'm in the process of creating another blog site on weebly.

Frankie Rose Cosmetics: samples

I had seen Frankie Rose Cosmetics on Instagram and on Facebook.  I had googled their site and searched more about their line.  What really got my attention would have been all the different makeup looks the beauties on Instagram had posted and while I was browsing on their site I had seen the Matte Perfection Foundation.  

Before I start rambling about the samples that they had sent me and process of me getting them.  

I would like to briefly talk about Frankie Rose cosmetics itself.

•What is Frankie Rose Cosmetics about?

Los Angeles based Frankie Rose Cosmetics is a unique brand of high quality makeup and tools designed to create a variety of crave worthy looks for women of all ages.

Crafted by professional makeup artists, Frankie Rose Cosmetics is specifically formulated to offer flawless, long lasting products in unique color palettes from silky foundation and highly pigmented shadows, to kiss worthy lipsticks and glosses. From dramatic and glamorous to naturally sexy, Frankie Rose Cosmetics creates the perfect look every time.

•So who is Frankie Rose?

Frankie Rose is who every woman wants to be. You most likely already know someone like Frankie Rose… She might even be you!

She’s fearless, beautiful, confident and sexy. She knows who she is and what she wants. On days when you feel amazing in your own skin, when you feel like you can do anything…you catch a glimpse of her in your mirror.

There’s a Frankie Rose in every woman, just waiting to be unleashed.

• FYI plus ALL their cosmetics are 100% cruelty free & gluten free.

"Lets get down to the nitty gritty.."

So I had emailed them about their foundation shades?  On what shade would best suit me.  I wouldn't have thought they would email me back until acouple of days, but they emailed me back the next day... Talk about fast reponse!!! 

Anyways here is a sample of my letter I received from them:

So basically I did pick out the shade in Oatmeal.  It's kind of hard to pick out a shade online cause products shade always looks different on screen.  

So I actually received this package yesterday and I didn't have time to look what was inside til today...

So they had sent me a sample of their face primer and 4 different shades in their Matte Perfection foundation.

How cute are their packaging? so basically the sample came in a small zip lock bag w/ their square shaped business card and stapled with a pink note on it. Plus they also attached a 20% off promo code. How exciting!!!

Here is the first swatches of the foundation applied on my forearm in natural lighting.

And here in flash photography in a few hours after foundation had set.

And one without flash, but in natural lighting that's also been set from a few hours after foundation had set.

So the outcome of all this! Is for me! Actually I needed to see if this product oxides.  As you may not know I normally pick out a one shade lighter than my actual color.  And I was right Oatmeal would have been a perfect shade at first but as you can see it really oxide on my skin.  I think if I applied it on my face it would actually turn out darker.  So technically I am gonna go with Olive.  It maybe light, but I will work once the contouring is applied.

I will do a separate first impression and review on the primer and Foundation in Olive.

Inspired by Dulce Candy Electric tutorial

Hello...

I just wanna say I am a big fan of Dulce Candy,  I have been watching her videos on YouTube since 2008.  She started off just making YouTube video in her closet, I think!  Anyways she became well known to the world as a beauty and fashion YouTube guru, got feature in top fashion magazines like Nylon, Cosmopolitan, Peoples Style Watch...etc.  

Here is my inspired Dulce Candy Urban Decay Electric tutorial look:

I have used the same eye shadows in her look. 

I had used TEASE from the NAKED 2 palette all over my crease and just blending upwards to the brow bone with light strokes.

With a few drops of MAC mixing medium and GONZO from the UD Electric palette all over my eye lids.

With the mixing medium again and taking REVOLT under the lower lash line.  Dulce didn't add anything in her inner corner but I decide to add a THRASH in my inner tear duct. ( you don't have to add anything to your tear duct but like I said above this is an inspired look, so I wanted to add something of me, do you get what I'm saying.)

I hope you enjoyed this inspired look and a very special shoutout to one of my favorite beauty guru Dulce Candy.  I hope some day I'll be able to meet you in person.

Oh and here is the list of the products I have used on my face.. ( in no particular order)

Loreal true match lumi foundation in w6

BeneFit fake it up in medium

theBalm sexy mama powder

Estée Lauder bronze goddess

Tarte Amazon clay blush in fearless

Giorgio Armani brow pencil in #2

Laura Mercier cake e/l in ebony black

Too faced better than sex mascara

MAC l/s in velvet teddy

UD pocket rocket l/g in Kirk

Stay tune for more looks and reviews...

Love.
