Various Ways on Applying Blue / Emerald Eyeshadow

The main product used in the face chart below is NYX Cosmetics Love Affair with Louis LIP04 eyeshadow palette. I really love the emerald green and blue shades in this palette. It's moderately shimmer which means you can use it for day or night.

More International Beauty Brands coming to town



I had browsed through a few online job sites just to see who is hiring. And yeah - saw that Illamasqua and Too Cool For School are both hiring Makeup Artists in Singapore! Which means - both brands will be launching soon.

Illamasqua is a famous UK cosmetic brand famous for its intense colors and dramatic makeup. Too Cool For School is a Korean brand that is well known for its cute packaging that revolves around a school inspired theme. Not sure yet where and how many locations will they be at in Singapore but I chanced upon Too Cool For School store which is under renovation at level 3 Far East Plaza.

Enter the Airbrush Makeup!


The new trend in makeup is natural, fresh and glowing faces. Cakey, over powdered and masked skin are look fake and outdated. A great makeup makes us feel comfortable no matter how long our days are. A great makeup is also something that both men and women of any age can benefit from. We need a makeup that is lightweight and looks very natural – yet let us have a flawless and perfect complexion that glows. Good news is these are all achievable with Airbrush Makeup. Airbrush makeup is actually not a new concept to the makeup industry. For those who have never tried Airbrush Makeup and are curious to know what it is, do visit http://www.makeovermagix.com/Airbrush.html

Animal Testings of Cosmetic Products sold in China

It is really sad reading this news. Whilst human are so tempted to making huge bucks and consumers so encouraged to look great, the animals have to suffer. I mean, yes I understand that there are times animal testing is a must - especially for labs that research on medications - but purely for beauty reasons, I just find it ridiculous. Isn't it better to make less money than to die knowing you have tortured so many animals just so you could grow the business. I really hope that scientists can find more intelligent ways of testings cosmetics - which is a 'want', not a 'need' - rather than on the innocent animals. I agree with the Nick Palmer, at the end of the day, humans are not rabbits.
