GRWM: Event Makeup Look in 30 Minutes Less

 

Hi everyone! 
Gosh, it is almost a month that I last updated here!  Where did the SUMMER VACATION went?

If you follow me on Instagram #ShamelessPlug , you know that my son had his first Holy Communion (for Roman Catholics) and did you know that kids had to attend 3 days Catechism classes while parents need a 2-3 hours session separately? 

We also had a reconciliation day so that covers the whole week of August!  Aside from that, I managed to grab a couple of PR Consultancy opportunities so that kept me super busy as well.  

Anyway, before I go any further about my personal stories, you are probably here for the Get Ready with Me look in 30 minutes less!  Now that you know my schedule, you know that 30minutes is the only available period of time for full face makeup look.

When in rush, it helps to use a pop of color on lips like RED or Deep Burgundy.  A loud lip statement would make your overall look unique.  It looked like you spent a lot of time doing your makeup but in reality, you just did a bit of lipstick swiping!

Kiko Milano Look

2 weeks ago, I visited Kiko Milano's store opening at SM Megamall.  The brand has been making waves in the beauty world because it opened up a couple of stores in Manila!  I was one of those who got super excited because this is a well known European makeup brand that is turning out to be a "pasalubong" for those who loves makeup.  I for one received a couple of Kiko Milano makeup products as gifts when my friends or relatives arrive from their Europe trip.

I posted about my shopping experience at SM Megamall (watch HERE) and you can check out how you can do what I did when you are faced in a store with so many products.  Yes, I will teach you how to focus and buy only things that you need! :D

After buying my top Kiko Milano products, here's a quick GRWM  look that I did!  

Because I did not buy any Kiko Milano brow products, I used their Green Me Eyeshadow palette 105.

I  picked this medium brown shade (lower middle) as my brow powder.

I started with brows because there could be fall out before I do my base makeup.  Out of all the foundations available, I veered towards their stick foundation as it can double up as concealer on busy days.

Kiko Milano Active Foundation shade 2G is a perfect match on me.
