When was the first
time you ever got intrigued by make-up? mine was just about fiveish years of
age.
I used to remember
the waking up to a brightly lit room and the sight of my mother getting ready for work.She had mostly glass
bottles and jars lined perfectly framing the light brown dressing table.
A dark emerald blue glass bowl with all the
bobby pins, a brush holder with the most funniest looking spike brush and my favourite
part of the dresser; the majestic line of perfume bottles. Among all the tempting items that I was warned not
to play with there was dear mummy.
She held the lip brush on her right hand and
drew the most perfect lips one could desire to have. It was always the crimson
red lip colour. I learnt a great deal that brushes were not only to paint on
paper but also to paint a perfect canvas - your face.
Since I have grown
to handle make-up well I am constantly exploring products that can make a
combination skin tone like mine look more radiant and pretty. I have complied
some picture of me before and after picture of me.
Products of Choice :
On Face :
Sephora Age Defy Moisture Cream SPF 15 Sunscreen " Don't Act Your Age"
Sephora Smoothing Primer
Oil based but very easy to apply, did not leave skin feeling greasy
Dried up fast, did not wait long to apply foundation

Smooth finish but had to use a lot to set the face.

NYX Lipliner in 808 Deep Purple
On Eyes :
NYX Extreme Blue SLL 101 Liquid Eye-Liner
Fine brush applicator, super easy to create a polished line
Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping Masacara in Blackest Black - Noir Intense
Made lashes look luscious and defined
Himalaya's Herbal Eye-Definer Kajal
Smooth and creamy but did not smudge onto under area
Now for the review:
Make-up was applied at 9 am and removed at 6.30 pm
Lasting power of the overall look I would give it 4 stars
The face needed lost of touch-up as I started oiling up at the T-Zone area
Lips completely washed off after lunch, din take the liner and balm so no touch-ups
Eye make-up lasted thru out, 5 stars
NYX Eyeliner's colour did not wear off the line did not smudge - it stayed vibrantly blue till I took it off this evening.
Himalaya's Kajal was amazing, I did not worry about checking in the mirror for eye liner bleeds.
