Makeup Disaster

Grace Davidson Thursday, June 13, 2013 16 Comments

Ugh, I hate when this thing happen.. I had to go out with my mom to pick something up this afternoon. For that reason, I woke up earlier than usual. I really didn't want to go out in this beautiful weather without any makeup so I started to apply some makeup on. As I applying my foundation, I was so satisfied how it glides on my face and looks flawless without concealer because I usually had to use it afterward to hide my blemishes.

Anyway, It must got on my hand when I applied eyeliner. I tried to move my hair back that was in the way.. and bam! The black stuff got on my cheek. It happened so quick! I was a bit pissed. If it was a normal day when I don't really care about foundation and stuff, I probably and immediately grab my makeup wipe and wipe it off and re-do. But since I really liked how my foundation look on me today, i had to think if i want to re-do or cover it up.. Well, long story short, I went out with this black line on my cheek. The end. No, I was just playing.. So, i rubbed it with my finger carefully to see if this line will come out and luckily it did without looking dirty and smudged!

I know many of you have had this experiences at least once. Every time when this 'makeup disaster' happen, what do you usually do?

Back to natural

Grace Davidson Sunday, June 2, 2013 16 Comments

Naturally, I have a dark hair. I won't say mine is just 'black' since it is not really the blackest black. I don't think it's brunette either. I don't know, it's hard to describe it. Anyway, I've been dying and bleaching my hair with lighter shades because I think hair is one of the best accessory that people can have- Curl it, straighten it, dye it, color it, cut it...

Honestly, I loved the lighter hair color better than dark. I could see the details of it when I curl my hair and looked/felt much cooler on a very hot day. Also the weather in San Diego is perfect every time and even on a winter, it's not that cold as you think.- I just kept thinking like lighter color will suit better with the weather where i live. So that was the biggest reason why I hesitate to color my hair back to dark. However, I flew over 9 hours to see my parents in East Cost several weeks ago. As soon as my mom saw my hair, she had nonstop criticism on my hair color. First I really didn't care much on what she was saying but after over few weeks, I was exhaust from her repeating same stuff over and over.. like you look chubby because of your hair color, your hair is so damaged, you ruined your hair..etc.[Not trying to say I hate my mother or nothing. I hardly see my mom gets criticized on something :) ]

I agreed with her that my hair damaged a lot since I dyed my hair. She had several good points and actually I was a bit getting tired of seeing dark roots growing every few weeks. So finally decided to keep it natural until my hair recovers from its damage. I used John Frieda's Precision Foam Colour in Natural Black. I looooove John Frieda's products! It's so easy to use and foam is great when i try to color it by myself. Usually gave me spotless and all even hair color. But this time I got only one pack instead of two. By that reason, I ran out of mixture and got little orange streak left on the back of my head. But still, I love this hair product and will use this again when i have to.

Anyway, I'm back to my natural hair color and I quite like the look. It makes my skin looks much lighter and clear. SATISFIED! :-)

FOTD : Hot pink lips + Gold eyeliner

Grace Davidson Friday, May 10, 2013 2 Comments

Some of you said that you would like to see how 'Milani's Rose Hip' looks on me so I've decided to do a FOTD post with the Rose Hip. To be honest, this is a 10minutes look that I really didn't put a lot of time doing this makeup compare to the time i spend for my every makeup- which is about 40minutes. I also didn't spend much time and effort concealing or mix tinted moisturizer and light foundation to cover all the blemishes on my skin. Since the lip color is so bold and strong, I didn't want to look like a crown by doing heavy makeup or looks so caked.

FOTD | Double winged eyeliner

Grace Davidson Wednesday, April 24, 2013 27 Comments

I do love to create double winged liner(s) and do this every makeup look of mine. There are several reasons why I do this. First, I have really short eye lashes so most of the time I wear false lashes. Many of them are longer than my eyes and I am too lazy to cut them to fit my eyes, I just simply extended my eye line for more natural look when I wear false lashes. Another reason is that double liner(s) just looks cute to me. Don't I look like have big long lashes? In my opinion, yes. Every person do their makeup that's suit their face and so do I. I figured that double winged is better than single winged for my eyes. :) Anyways, here is the list of products I used to create this look. I used very affordable ones! *I forgot to put my lippy in the picture but I will make sure write on the list.
