Hello Halloween!


                                  'HELLO HALLOWEEN'


Halloween, also known as the 'All Saint-Eve' or 'All Hallow-Eve' has become very popular and is yearly celebrated in various countries all over the world on 31st October.




Hello everyone!

Halloween is just a few days ahead and aren't you guys excited about it! Well, i am sure you guys are excited as I am. Today, I will be posting about my halloween look, which i created. I tried to create a cracked doll makeup look this halloween, inspired by my sister's favourite blogger, who has already done this look.
So ladies, here are the steps for getting this look.

Steps:


  • First, moisturize your skin with an moisturizer and then, apply your foundation in a light shade, compared to your skin tone with a foundation brush or a beauty blender, so that your fondation does not look cakey.
  • After that, conceal all your blemishes and dark circles, using a concealer. Use a transculent powder to set your foundation and your concealer.
  • Start conturing your face and your nose, to get that perfect doll-like, face shape.
  • Then, fill in your eyebrows and shape it.
  • Now, comes the main part, the eyes. For the eyes, first apply a eye primer or even a concealer, all over your eyelids. Then, apply the eyeshadow to your eyes. I used a wine pink color eyeshadow kit from Maybelline, for this look. After, that use a black eyeliner, to line your eyes, so that, your eyes look more defined but do not winge it out, too much. For the lower part, i used a very light shade concealer and on top of that, i applied a light shade eyesahdow called White light from my I LOVE MAKEUP palette, to make my eyes look more big. With the help of my eyeliner, i drew the lower lashlines, to give that doll-like effect.Lastly, apply coats and coats of mascara on your upper lashes, so that your lashes may look more longer. You can even go for a false eyelash.
  • Blush your cheeks with, your favourite pink blusher and also use a highlighter, to highlight your cheekbones and your nose tip.
  • Before, you wear your lipstick, always apply a lip primer or a concealer. You can even use a compact or a powder, to set your lipstick for a longer period of time. I used a Neon pink lipstick for my look. So, you can wear any kind of pink lipstick.
  • At, last i drew those broken lines with a black eyeliner on my forehead and my left cheek. You can draw it anywhere you want.


Products I used:
  • Etude House BB Cream in shade light beige.
  • Freedom Makeup London Conceal Pro-Kit. 
  • Innisfree Transculent Powder.
  • Makeup Revolution Sugar Palette For Contouring & Blushing.
  • Freedom Makeup London Eyebrow Kit.
  • Etude House Eye Primer.
  • Maybelline Wine Pink Eye Shadow Kit.
  • Maybelline the Colossal Liner.
  • Maybelline the COlossal Volum Express Mascara.
  • White Light eyeshadow by I love Makeup.
  • Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick Shock Me Pink.
  • Elizabeth Arden Red Door Lipstick.

    * I mixed these two shades to get a neon color lipstick.



So, guys please try this look for halloween if you like it, and do tag me in your pictures on instagram. My name is Pemtsang so please follow me on instagram.

                         

                    Till Then Stay Happy,                                          Be Beautiful,
                                Be YOU!

Basically, doing makeup is a hectic routine as you have to apply a lot of things like foundation, compacts, concealers, mascara, liners etc; but the most essential and important thing is doing your eyebrows, which we often tend to forget, at times. So, don't forget to complete your look, by enhancing and getting a groomed pair of eyebrows.

So, what are you waiting for? Go to www.jabong.com and buy this Pro-Kit at a huge discount.

MY EXPERIENCE :
When it comes to filling eyebrows, i personally love using brow powders, as it is very easy to blend and as well as, gives your eyebrow, a more natural look.
Like always, i was just looking through some cosmetic product, in an online store called www.jabong.com, when i came across this brand called 'Freedom Makeup London' where i found a pro eyebrow kit, which i really needed for my eyebrows. As soon as i saw, i placed an order for it, and the product arrived within three days.
As, i opened the parcel and saw the eye brow pro kit, i fell in love with it. It came in a small, travel friendly kit, with a handy little mirror, cute small tweezers, an small eyebrow brush, a dark brow wax and three blend-able  dark brow powders, as i had ordered the medium-dark Pro Eyebrow Kit.

Since, the day i started using this pro eyebrow kit by Freedom Makeup London, i can't go a day without it.
It is an amazing kit and contains everything you need to achieve the
perfect brows. You can even mix the powders according to your choice and go for a natural look or a stronger look with this pro-kit.

How to use:
First, outline your eyebrows with the brow wax, using the eyebrow brush from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner keeping, the lower end lined up with the edge of your nostril.
After that, keep the lower end of the brush, lined up with the edge of your nostril as it was, and then move the upper part till the outer corner. Similarly, again line your brows from the upper part, to the center of the eye and create an arch. The point, where your brush hits your brow line, is the natural arch of your brow. Getting arches on your eyebrows, gives your eyebrow an ideal shape.

GO FLAWLESS~


Who doesn't want a flawless, glowing skin?. Women of every age wants it, including myself. Flawless itself means "perfect" and nobody in this world is born perfect or with a perfect skin but everybody wants to have that perfect skin.

Nowadays women are ready to even spend a big fortune just to get that flawless, glowing skin. I personally feel that instead of spending too much of money on cosmetic surgeries and expensive creams, why don't we follow, some natural remedies to get that glowing skin.

So, my lovely readers, today i will be posting on this blog the SIX steps, which every girl must follow to get that 'FLAWLESS' skin.

Step No.1#
                 
DIET PLAN

You can follow all the skin care regime but it will give you shine only, if, you cleanse your body from inside and get rid of all the toxins. So detoxify your body and maintain a healthy diet plan which would include healthy food like green vegetables, lot of fruits and nuts. Try to avoid oily and unhealthy food which is not only going to harm your health but also your skin.

Step No.2#   
             SWEAT

Sweating
helps to excrete all the toxins out of your skin. Plus doing some exercise helps in circulating your blood flow nicely and boosting up your cellular oxygenation, giving you a glowing, flawless skin. Yoga is also an another way of getting a glowing skin as it helps in reducing stress.


Step No.3#   

             
 WATER! WATER!!   
Water plays an essential role in getting a glowing skin, so guys keep yourself hydrated all day long. Drink lots of water as it will benefit not only your health but your skin too. At least drink ten to fifteen glasses of water daily and try to avoid alcohol consumption.



Step No 4#
   



            CLEANSING,TONING,MOISTURIZING.                                       
                                          (C.T.M)

CLEANSING:
 Cleanse your face at least twice a day to get rid of that excess oil from your face. Buy a cleanser according to your skin type as CLEANSING your face helps in keeping your skin clean and clear.

TONING:
After you are done with your cleansing, the next step is to tone your skin as it gives moisture to the skin. You can even use a ROSE WATER TONER for dry skin and NEEM WATER TONER for oily skin.


MOISTURIZING:
Your skin care routine should also include an moisturizer as it helps in balancing your skin level. Those who have an oily skin can also go for a water based moisturizer or an aloe vera gel.


Step No 5#

           


  KEEP IT MINIMAL!

Applying too
 much of makeup can make a girl look really FAKE and old. So, try to keep your makeup natural, simple and minimal. Always blend your foundation properly soo, that it dosen't look too cakey. Try to use nude colors more for day.


Step No.6#
               
               
                  PACKS! MASKS!

 Try to apply face packs and face masks at least once in a week so that your skin can feel fresh and clean after exfoliating your skin with a face scrub. Choose face packs and scrubs according to your skin type.

So, this is the end all of the steps. Hope you guys will try following these steps and please do comment back.
                   
                                       Till then stay happy,
