Haute Couture : Valentino Spring 2010

This collection is really influenced by Avatar - the blue spray shoulder - leads us to a garden in the fantasy world. The designers really try to attract more younger clients through this collection full of softness & modern twist like short colorful dresses, sparkly leggings, but also continue the traditional style like ruffles & layers. The makeup is fantastic with colorful eyes with a pale face & nude lips. Hair was kept simple to let the makeup stand out more

 

Haute Couture : Christian Dior Spring 2010

When it comes to John Galliano, all we have to say is : GENIUS. He knows how to make couture clothes like no others. His show always surprises everyone. This season, John Galliano pushed a Dior couture show into the realms of sensory overload. Loads of hats, veils, impeccable riding habits & satin ballgown. Path Mcgrath's makeup is always perfect with a matte red / nude lips. The show was made "for an unforgettable coming together of live atmosphere, detail, and voluptuous visual pleasure" (style.com)

Haute Couture : Chanel Spring 2010

For the first time, we dont see the usual BLACK OR NAVY color at Chanel haute couture show. The whole collection is full of silver and pastel suits and dresses. The hairstyle is very cartoonish which was crafted in a heart shape beautifully. Karl was so smart to even put silver streak into model's hair to coordinate with their outfits. Light silver eye makeup & bright coral lips compliment the whole look. Just one word to describe the show: GORGEOUS !

Summer look - EOTD

Summer means its time to bring out more colors to your look. Today i created a summery look with most pastel colors like pink, yellow, green and blue. Somehow, I cant take a picture of how it truely looks. In person, the colors look more intense, not as light as how it's showing here

Firstly, I use MAC cream color base Luna. Then using a Medium Eyeshadow Brush to blend MAC e.s Passionate over eye lids and up to brow bones. Apply Sephora Lime Green 42 from the inner corner to the outer corner of the eyes, blending over the lid into the crease using a blending brush . Apply MAC e.s Freshwater to lower lash lines, concentrating the color on the outer corner and fading it inward using a smaller smudge brush. Brighten the inner corner of the eyes with a lighter yellow eyeshadow using Paul & Joe eyeshadow (already discontinued) using a small shader brush. Line lash lines with MAC eyekohl Smolder on top and bottom lashes. Prime your lashes with Lancome CILS BOOSTER XL Super-Enhancing Mascara Base, then put ur favorite mascara on top (Benefit Bad Gal mascara )
