Easy Dolly eye Tutorial~ skin 79 bb cream review *pic heavy*

Hello~♥

Its been a really long time since my last tutorial, I am so sorry about that =__=;; 

I do try to video tape myself while I make a tutorials but I really hate editing and uploading them on YT since it takes so long for all that process but I will get better at finding time for it and dedicate myself to making more videos! lol... and I also get super nervous when I make vids for some reason not used to being in front of the camera.... Im used to behind the scenes :P

ok so I wanted to make another dolly eye tutorial's since I love kawaii dolly looks but Im usually too lazy to wear false lashes haha.... :3 but that is what gives that extra illusion in giving you that dolly eyes!

Here are the items used for this look:

Skin 79 triple function BB cream

Jill Stuart mix blush in lovely tulip 01

Visee Glam Nude eyes palette in N-2

NYX concealer Jar in beige

Majolica Majorca lash expander

Dolly wink liquid eyeliner in black

Dolly wink lash glue

NYX automatic eye brown liner in brown

YSL volupte rouge in 07

smashbox lip enhancing gloss in Illume

Pure max lens in pink

,

Ok I wanted to let you know how much I am loving this skin 79 bb cream~
I love the finish so much that this have been my main foundation lately and I am actually really
surprised at how well this BB cream is working with my skin, it covers my all my flaws with one coat without looking fake, it have not made me breakout!! and keeps my skin fresh looking, color matches me really well just slightly light on me but still looks like a perfect match and most of all it feels light on my skin like Im not really wearing anything on!

ok here is half with this BB cream and half without with just one coat

made my skin really even and got rid of my dark circles! looks really dewy and fresh :D

 

Now with the full face and I used the concealer under my eyes in this second photos since I felt like I wanted a flawless look but I really didnt need to use it since this bb cream conceals flaws really well!

   

 Now on to applying the blush

 

I adore JS blushes it creates the perfect soft pink cheeks and give me a nice glow and also it come with 4 shades~ highlighter, base color and shading color so you can create more of a 3D cheek color with this palette

I always line my eyes first before anything on the eyes this is my preference and how I do my makeup since doing the liner first you get a better perspective on how you want to makeup your eyes, its like outlining my eyes for the shadowing and if the shadow takes off alittle on the liner its ok you can always reline it after the false lashes are on :)

for the dolly eyes you want to over exaggerate the the winged liner to create an illusion of bigger eyes

 Now with Visee palette~ this palette is perfect for natural looks contains really fine and pretty shimmer so creates really nice luminescent eyes  :3

apply all over the lids with the indicated shade on top but I dont go past my crease line since I want the false lash to emphasize the eyes but if you want more drastic and smokey eyes apply slightly higher

with the fine tip and with the darkest shade I apply on the outer end on the bottom lash line and connecting with the winged liner

now use highlighting shade to shade just below your eyebrows by doing this it will give you more dimension in your face and to the eyes

now apply shadows that are couple shade lighter than your skin tone on your inner corner of your eyes and your lower lash line where it meets the shadows, by doing this it will make your eyes pop and adds to the illusion of dolly eyes

now refine your eye brows, I am using NYX automatic eyebrow liner this have a brush on the other ends so I can blend them into my eyebrowns for more softer but defined look

Now on to the false lashes, I do love this lash glue it saves me lots of time and its not messy and easy to apply~ and best of all its a great quality glue so it stays on really well♥

and for the false lashes I am using Princess cute lashes in 704 I love this lashes it looks really natural and really light on my eyes so I forget I have it on :D

I use tweezer to apply the falsie since it gives me better control and I can make sure that it is on by pinching them down

here is with and without the lashes~

the lash blends into my winged liner :)

I forgot to take pic of me applying mascara and used my electric lash curler on the top lashes so that my natural lashes blends into the false lashes

Now with using this mascara it will give you really defined long lashes!! :D

I dont use this mascara much since I hate using eye makeup removers since its waterproof but this mascara works really well if you like fiberwig you will love this since the comb applicator separates and defines the lashes! 

Lash expander works really for bottom lashes~! :D

now to complete the dolly look I wanted a pinky lips so I used YSL volupte lippie in lingerie pink~ this shade of pink is alittle bit on the hot side so I wanted it to be more neutral and add more shine so I used smashbox lip gloss in Illume

Finished! ^__^

Overall I LOVE this BB cream ALOT! seriously it will give you a flawless finish and still look really natural most of all it makes my skin look dewy and smooth without anything else on and dont seem to add extra oil to my already oily skin so that is a super plus for me!! I dont add any finishing powders since I like having the dewy finish but if you live in more humid and hot weather you can always add powders to set it for a matte finish as well~!

Thank you Pinkyparadise.com for letting me try out this wonderful product I am truly loving it!!

ok that is it for my Dolly eye tutorial,, 

hope I showcased the products well for this tutorial, will have lots of reviews to come! 

thank you for stopping by again♥

Lioele review~ Water drop BB, Marbling blusher, 3D enamel and Essential Donut

Hello♥


my belated review of Lioele products sponsored by pretty and cute :)


so I ran into trouble last night when I finally had time to make post and blogger is acting so strange and it wont let me upload images,,, :( I refreshed and closed my browser and restarted my computer but still no luck so I ended up using my flickr account with I am trying not to use to often....


I am so sorry for the lack of updates and I have been pretty quiet in twitter as well....Just been super busy since right after I got back from FL so I been again stressing...lack of time for myself to really relax and do the stuff I love is making me really sad T__T


Ok so back to the post, Janie was sweet to send me some Lioele items for me to review and I feel terrible since she sent them to me like a over a month ago but been so busy just havent had the time to make a full review... good side is that I got to really test them out~! My experience with Lioele product in the past are just their Beyond solution BB cream which was my first ever BB cream I have tried out due to the hype of BB creams, I have to say it wasnt a perfect match but it did cover my imperfections pretty well but I couldnt wear it all the time since it seems to give me small bumps of blemishes after a while so I used it now and then so I was happy to tried their other products and another type of BB cream from Lioele as well.


First off are 

Lioele water drop BB
 what is says on the bottle:


It is an exclusive moisturizing BB cream which makes your skin moist since waterdrop, which is generated when you apply it to skin is well absorbed into your skin
 SPF 27/PA++
50ml


all the directions are written in Korean so Im not sure what it says :p

Here is more description from pretty and cute about this BB cream

Ok so from my experience with this BB cream:


I have really weird skin combination its really oily but sensitive so it have been really hard finding that happy medium for my skin, I get complimented on my skin complexion from alot of people but the truth is that I struggle with keeping it calm, clear and happy. Ive always had a complex with my skin since the age of 12 that is when I started to get pimples and so on, so it have been a struggle to find that balance for my skin and finally it seems like I am managing my skin and understand what works and what doesnt work with my skin.


Why wear BB cream?:

Most BB cream goes on really smooth, feels really light on your skin and supposed to give your skin that "natural" look,, like that look that you are not wearing anything. So that is why it have gotten really popular because who doesnt want a beautiful natural looking skin? So most of BB cream give you the finish of dewy and fresh look which I love about bb creams~ Most important thing for me with BB cream is that it doesnt make you feel like you are wearing a mask like when you know you are wearing a foundation feel, also must match my skin tone because most BB creams comes in limited shades so that makes things alittle hard to know if it will match you.


What I felt with this bb cream:

with this BB cream first thing I noticed is that it is doesnt have a greasy or oily texture to the cream which is a plus for my oily skin and another thing is that it is water based so it goes on very light and smooth almost like gel like. When you blend on you can clearly see the bb cream's water contents so you kinda feel like you splashed water on your face which was refreshing in FL :p

On the shade:
I am fairly light right now the lightest I have seen myself to be since I lived in FL most of my American life so I was used to seeing my skin tone alot darker than the shade I am now so I used to be about NC35 in FL but now I am about NC25 a big difference huh... I guess thats what happens when your skin doesnt see much of the sun anymore lol So this BB cream matches my skin tone really well its not too light or dark on me.

On to the coverage:

OK, so you can see that I clearly do NOT have flawless skin I just know what to mask and correct my skin with make up, I know its pretty scary since you guys are all used to seeing my skin all done and flawless with the power of make up! :3 LOL.. so I have issues with dark circles, milia, sun spots, uneven skin tone and redness around my nose along with occasional break outs so what I look for in a foundation for me is good coverage but not so matte that it looks like a mask on me but covers enough but still give me a dewy natural finish

so this BB cream like with most BB cream the more coats you apply the more it will cover so you can use it really light like a tinted moisturizer or full cover foundation. Usually I use concealer under my eyes for my dark circles because it doesnt fully cover with just foundation but in this photos I didnt use it to show you how much this BB cream covers my imperfections.


with one coat it just evens out my skin alittle but not enough to cover my imperfections with 2 coats it seems to give more evened out look, got rid of my reddness around my nose and more of a flawless look but its not enough to cover my dark circles fully but I do like that the consistency of this BB cream goes light and not heavy on my skin but I can tell that I am wearing the BB cream. Also it does finish off with fresh and natural skin look and dewy. :)

Overall:
 I think it will be good for anyone that have oily skin and if you are looking for more of a light coverage since its water based. I not sure if it stays on perfectly for a long period of time but I think you would love it if you like to use tinted moisturizers this will give you more coverage but with same consistency and feel♥

In this photo I added the finished look with Lioele Marbling blusher which gave my skin more luminescent look since the blush seems work better all over the face since its not so pigmented

forgot to include a close up... 
here you can really see that it made my skin really even and more dewy :)

Lioele Marbling Blusher in shining pink

This blush's packaging is really kawaii I was happy to see such a princess like compact :) ok so it called blusher right so you would think it is a blush but I think its more of a highlighting finishing powder because with much of the color you see in in the compact when you apply there isnt much of pigments but instead you get shimmery light powder with hint of color.
 

The brush is really soft so it doesnt pick up the product really well so you have to sweep cover couple of times to get it to show up on the skin but feels really soft on the face








the blushers swatch in natural lighting you can see it has light pearly texture








with flash you can see the highlighting reflection from the powder and you can see the fine shimmery powder in the compact

when applied on the skin you can see the shimmery powder which can give you the pearly finish which will give you more of a dewy look if applied as a blush or all over the face any where that you feel it need a pick me of shimmer/highlight :)

Lioele 3D Enamel lip gloss in #3 dreaming pink
4.5ml
what it say in the box:
Light and non-stickness fluid gel type of lip gloss







I am a sucker or any baby pinkish shade lippies and I was happy when I saw that Janie sent me this gloss in this shade~


The size of this gloss is fairly small but cute packaging, smells really sweet and fruity but no flavor, as it claims its not sticky feelings on the lips but sorta feels greasy. Its pigmented really well and goes on really smooth it is very similar and comparable to NYX mega shine series or Canmake Nudy glow series in terms of the texture and the pigments.










the brush is sorta different its a flat brush not rounded

















The shade of this gloss:
I would have to say this pink shade is milky hot pink very vivid pink, as you can see the gloss can settle in the creases of the lip but have that gel like look to them and creates very plumped look

Lioele Essential Donut Glo-stick in #3 Nude beige
what it says:
* Lip essence within lipstick”
Regular type lipstick with highly concentrated moisturizer contains an essence core with tocopherol acetate, to keep lips soft and moist throughout the day.
* All the benefits for your lips”
This lipstick consistently corrects dark and sordid lips to give them color and exuberant glitter as would a lip gloss. With lip treatment effects offered in 5 adorable colors, you will give yourself a natural and refined look, no matter what type of ambiance you wish to express with makeup.














ok so its called donuts for a reason due to the conditioning products in the center and the packaging are not as cute as the others, it have light scent of that "lipstick" smell but its mild and it doesnt bother me and like everyone have said its does go on like a lip balm and moisturizes my lips really well and have this glossy finish like a lip gloss :)

















The pigment are mild and sheer so its goes on like a tinted lip balm but with more gloss but not sticky or not too greasy just right :)










well that was it for my review~ hope it give you a better idea about the items ^__^
