AMW Version: Here Comes the Rain

Rainy days can put me in a gloomy mood!  It's not because I hate the rain but I dislike the flood, traffic and danger it gives to everyone!  

I am trying to put something positive into everything that's happening around us that's why I thought of creating a Rainy Day Look!  I thought of the dark blue sky, that explains the colors I used!


AMW Diagram

Step 1:
Apply a primer if you want for the eyeshadow to look more vibrant and stay longer.  I used Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer.  I penciled my crease area with Lancome Le Crayon Khol in Teal and top it with Laura Mercier's Blue Sky Eye Quad using the color as pointed by the brush.


Step 2:
With a blending brush, blend out harsh lines from the blue shadow with Dollface Green shade eyeshadow.


Step 3:
Apply light shimmery orange eyeshadow (same from Dollface palette) on the brow bone area.

Step 4:
With a pencil brush, apply the same blue shadow used on Step 1 on the lower lash line.


Step 5:
Apply gel liner.  I am using KATE Gel Liner in Black

Optional:
Apply falsies.  I am using KKCenterHK's ES A155 which is one of the longest and fullest lashes I've tried to date. I am liking the lashes from ES as they are long but not heavy at all!  It feels so light!

 
  
Here Comes the Rain


What's on the rest of my face?
Secret!  *just joking* :P


For the Face
INuovi Lite Base  in 3Y
Revlon ColorStay Powder Foundation

For the Cheeks
MAC Superduper Natural Mineralized Blush



 For the Lips:

Rain or shine, 
I'm ready to face the world with a huge smile!

After I removed my falsies, here's how bare my real lashes look! :)
Girls can really cheat with makeup!
Guys....BEWARE!  *laughs*

Do you look different with falsies on?
It depends, the really long ones can give a huge impact to my tiny eyes!

Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
