Week 1 challenge: Porcelain Doll look

Sponsored by the lovely and one of my favourite brand, ETUDE.

For this look, I am inspired by Korean Etude model, Song Hye Kyo :)

I think she has that gorgeous and glowing porcelain skin and I really admire her look below.

So I'm creating the porcelain doll look with this as the inspiration and i add on a little twist of putting a dramatic faux lashes, blue color lens, lower lashes and a pinkish round blushes that inspired from a typical doll.

- wish me all the luck - 

Btw, not in anyway, I am comparing myself with her, ok?

Far..far... and beyond there is no way I could look like her, but I am very inspired by her.

Full stop here. 

~*~

-Video tutorial available at the bottom of this post, for now, I am going to introduce to you the Etude products that helps me in getting this look! You are gonna love it! It's affordable and gorgeous. -

I started the look with my bare face and blue contact lens.

 and prime up my face with Etude Aura Nymph Boosting primer ($24.90)

You should get this! 

this primer works magic if you want to achieve the flawless Korean porcelain skin, it's like the moment I applied it on, my face seems brighter with even skin tone. 

Me gusta..the light texture..

Etude BB Cream 

Precious mineral sun BB cream in natural beige ($36.90)

If you are staying in a humid country like me, here in Singapore.

Or you sweat a lot..get this one ;)

Apart from the awesome spf 50 to protect your skin during the day, this BB cream stays up the whole day on my skin. So if you are looking for a long lasting BB cream with a good coverage, get this one.

Etude easy brow pencil #01 ($5.90)

Etude drawing show creamy pencil ($12.90)

Etude LUCIDarling Fantastic Gradation Eyes ($24.90)

Etude Show gel eyeliner ($18.90)

Etude faux lashes ($5.90)

Etude Golden Ratio Contour maker ($24.90)

This is now my favourite product.

It has contour powder, blusher and highlighter altogether.

You pretty much save a lot of money by just buying 1 of this.

Instead of 1 blusher, 1 contour powder and 1 powder highlighter.

Love this!

Etude Dear My Milky gloss ($12.90)

{Korean} style make up tutorial

I blame Korean Drama for being such an addiction!

Am so #Hate myself to the max when I am so hooked to Korean Drama..Haiz haiz..-_-'

~ It's kinda make me ' hallucinating ' until i don't know when --> Quoted from my dearest Magdalene ~

I keep asking myself
"why did I start watching it in the first place?" while watching it..hahahaha..
- you know how it feel..-

*Am currently watching "faith" everybody, go and watch it! and let's get insane together*

Anyway, as always it is such a fairytale,

Handsome heroic actor x pretty lady with such an effortless looking make up!

Too good to be true. 

Anyway, I admit it..I am just jealous with the girl character :P

She is pretty and glowing, damn beautiful for her age. *face-palm to myself*

So excuse me with this crazy-ness in my head about this drama.

 ~*~

With that K-drama syndrome in my head,
I am inspired to create the " effortless" Korean make up look.

Clearly it's an effort-full kind of make up to create with an effort less make up as the end result.

So, this is the project of transforming the "Before me" to the "After me" as shown in the photo below.

.

.

.

So OMFG right?

I know I am not born pretty, but Thank God for whoever invented make up and thank goodness for my skill ^^

~*~

~I am wearing Freskon Alluring in Mystical black for my circle lens~

~*~

To achieve the Korean glowing skin, start with Laneige BB Snow as a based.

Cover any blemishes on your face using concealer :)

I am using Kryolan TV paint stick in beige.

With the same Kryolan TV Paint stick, I am creating the highlight on my face.

Not doing the S shape this time, but I draw a half butterfly instead.

Continue with the contouring using creme foundation that 3 tone darker than my skin.

Just a little bit near the cheekbone :)

Blend it nicely with a full brush.

Pick a shimmer white eyeshadow and apply it on your eyelid :)

Draw a thin eyeliner just in your lashline and slightly above it.

Now, let's draw the Korean eyebrow.

They tend to have a straight and thicker eyebrow, and mine is hairless with an arc.

-_-'

If you have the same problem like mine:

Draw a straight line in the lower brow first:

Then slowly filling it up using eyebrow brush and powder eyebrow.

Choose a pinkish blush to put a "blushing " effect on your cheek :)

And as seen in the K drama that I am currently watching, they have this matte pinkish lips.

I don't have a matte pink lips, so I just apply the glossy pink lipstick..

And I take loose powder..

To create the matte effect :)

Done!
Here you go:
My interpretation of the Korean effortless make up look.

*just in case you ask, I took a quick hair wash after I am done with the make up*

To create my hair :)

*Cannot show my "just wake up " hair lah..*

Happy trying and hope you liked it :)

Korean make up tutorial!

Make up tutorial

Bilingual

Lai lai..let me share how to do Korean make up :)
I was invited for Laneige make up workshop at Fairmont Hotel couple of Sundays ago, and I immediately RSVP for this! It's Korean make up trick and tips, of course I will not say NO! and I'm glad I arrived just right before the make up session started :(
I was stuck in express way for more than 30 mins, goddamid!

Mari sini, sayah bagi bagi tips untuk make up ala orang Korea!
Sotoy tahap tinggi ya gw? ahhahaa..tapi se-engganya tutorial gw kali ini, 

gw dapet first hand dari Korean Make up artist Choi Jung Hwa dan Celebrity make up artist Yuji Tong dari Hong Kong. Yuuk Mari..

We all know Korean known for their flawless, smooth and dewy skin, which I think it's impossible to achieve..because Korean by default has beautiful skin, flawless and just a pretty canvas to start. But seriously, after I tried Laneige water banks skin care range, I start to believe that maybe I can have that Korean supple skin.

Yaolo, kalo ngomongin kulit orang Korea..jelaslah ya gw ngiri!hahaha..kok kayaknya alus, mulus, dan agak2 glowing gitu deh..dulu gw tau trick paling gampangnya, campurin highlighter sama foundation biar bikin muka kita glowing. Tapi ya bo, ternyata dari skin care nya aja udah nolong..dan bener ya, kalo merek Korea itu dibikin untuk kulit asia. *gw serasa tukang obat* Tapi sungguh, Laneige water bank skin care nya ngaruh jek!

I don't have much photo during the workshop, it's like ok..BB snow time, then eyebrow then cheek, lipstick..and we're done! Ha? I have not snap a pic yet..-_-'

So, I'm gonna break it down on below after sharing few photos from the workshop :)

With the lovely Kavitha, she has the perfect V shape jaw! envy her :P

This is Yuji Tong, a celebrity make up artist from Hong Kong :)

NOW, I'm gonna share what I learned in the workshop from Yuji and in Laneige Party  from Mr. Choi Jung Hwang (Korean make up artist).

Daku share tips make up ala Korea yang baru norak gw pelajarin dari Yuji en Mr. Choi Jung Hwang, make up artist dari Korea yo!

1. Start with a clean face, keep it moisturised, (and do some corrective if you need to-this is tips from me).
My corrective make up in Korean make up will only covering my dark circle using NIP & FAB eyefix. On the lower right photo, you can see my before and after the eye fix, which actually function as dark circle treatment with a pink tint to cover while treating it. Double combo!

Dimulai dari muka yang bersih, pake moisturiser yang water based trus liat kira kira apa yang mesti diberesin dulu sebelon mulai make up. Untuk Korean make up ini, simply less is more..jangan overdue ini itu, dan aku cuma pake eye fix dari NIP & FAB yang sebenernya fungsinya untuk nge-treat dark circle, tapi dia berwarna pink gitu..dan mayan ok buat jadi concealer ^^
 
2. Choosing a right base.

I am now using MY CURRENT FAVOURITE BB CREAM!
Laneige SNow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+
If you are looking for a Korean glow in BB cream, get this one!
Seriously..the glow is a kind of skin glow in Korean Drama. You might want this.


Ini ya bo, BB cream Favourite eke sekarang!
Laneige SNow BB Soothing Cushion SPF 50+
Gw males nulis apa kandungannya dll, tapi pokonya..kalo dikau nonton drama Korea dan ngeliat kulit mereka kok glowing glowing gitu yah, dan loe mau efek yang sama..Beli deh ini!
Oh sungguh, cakep efeknya.
 
3. Keep thicker eyebrow for a younger look

I bet you notice, Korean eyebrow :)
You will never find a Korean actress or singer with a one thin archy eyebrow.
That is because, they want to look younger by having a thicker and fuller eyebrow.

Pasti kalian ampir ga pernah liat SNSD ato siapa lah penyanyi ato aktris Korea alisnya tipis melengkung indah di muka, itu karena menurut Mr. Choi, di Korea..mereka selalu mau keliatan muda, dan salah satu caranya ya punya alis yang tebel dan lebat (tapi bukan berarti alis lu lebat berantakan lu bilang itu alis Korea kata Pinkbuble) Engga loh yah!

It's actually pretty easy to draw:)
Keep your hands light, and start drawing from the bottom, and just filling the whole eyebrow according to theshape that suits your face.

Kalo misalnya pada bingung gimana pula gambar alis tebel dan rapi, coba mulai dari bawah kayak poto gw ini, ini buat acuan supaya ada batesan alis tebel kita. Abis itu, ikutin bentuk alis kita yang uda dirapiin dan diisin pake pensil alis.
 
That 3 Principal rules are the main keys for Korean look! Simple and easy to follow.
Just make sure you get a right brand to create the look.

One simple guidance in creating Korean make up look:
the E shape blush and S shape highlight.
Frankly speaking, this is a new technique for me too, because you know, usually we highlight our nose bridge, apple of the cheek and a little in forehead. Right?
This time, try something different..by following the E shape and the S shape, according to Mr. Choi, we are enhancing not only one part of our face but the whole of it :)

Sebelon kita mulai ke Korean make up look, coba peratiin cara Mr. Choi tarok blush sama highlightnya. Biasa kita highlight kan di batang idung, trus di pipi sama jidat sedikit, ya kan?
Nah, teknik make up Korean ini..mereka bikin E shape blush sama S shape highlight..liat aja lah ya di gambar bawah ini..

With the above guidance, now we can create the look that we want :)
I'm gonna share 3 Looks!
whether you like it or not, justbear with me a little more, ok?

The first look that I'm gonna share with you is the Korean so called " nude look " it's like, you are not using anything on you face but you are glowing enough and look presentable when you leave the house.

Untuk look yang pertama, ini tuh yang disebut Korean " nude look " :)
Jadi biasalah yah, ini efeknya tuh yang kayak..*ah aku ga pake apa-apa kok sebenernya * tapi keliatan glowing aja gitu..hahahha bohong abis!

Want this look?
1. Eyeshadow - Dark: peach - Light: matte white
2. Blush:  Rose color
3. Pink lippi (apply just in the centre of your lips and coat it with lip gloss)

The next look that I'm going to share is the sophisticated look :)

Something you would wear for work, meeting or hanging out with your girlfriends or boyfriend.

Look ke 2: Sophisticated look!

Look ini bisa kok buat dibawa ke kantor, ato buat JJS (masi jaman apa nulis JJS?!?!) hahhaha..ya itulah maksud gw, hang out sama temen2 cewek, buat nge-date ato dateng ke product launching :)

Want this look?

1. Eyeshadow - Dark: Dark brown - Light: Champagne color

2. Blush:  Rose color

3. Pink Lippie

With a strong eyeliner framing the eyes. 

(I'm using ETUDE gel eyeliner)

The last look: The bling bling look!
Not recommended to wear on daily dose though, but I think this is very pretty :)
I'm gonna on this look if I go to a club or maybe to a concert or a real party kind of Party!
All bling up! how to do this look? just glitter up! nothing else!

Look terakhir:  Bling bling look!
Pokonya, jangan pake make up mata kayak gini untuk sehari-hari..kecuali lu mo konseran, mo pentas balet ato ke club. Nah boleh deh seseruan pake look kayak gini :)
Mr. Choi kemaren pas demo, dia bilang..group band Korea..kalo pentas biasa pake bling bling look begini loh. Gw mah, iyah aja lah. Ga pernah meratiin juga sih, abis merekanya uda cantik gila..mo diapain juga dah cakep lah ya!

Want this look?
Just glitter up!!

Happy trying Gals!!
