A Green Tale

Hey Gorgeous, 

While most of you are asleep, I'm here creating my first post in the month of October 2015. I don't wear makeup everyday just because of the Lagos sun, argh sunscreen wouldn't even help, I then start to get really pissed off by just anything because the heat wouldn't cooperate with my makeup and when I get home while taking my makeup off, I see fresh popped up pimples 😪🙄. Anyways enough of my early morning ranting, I created this look yesterday  when my friend Jane (of MUD) visited me at the YangaBeautyStudio, I didn't know what eyeshadow to put on and she chose a shimmery green Colour from the Urban Decay Electric Palette which I detested because I somehow don't like so much colors on my eyelids (I can wear any Colour on my lips "trustme" just not my eyes) it took a lot of convincing before I succumbed, I'm glad I did. 

didn't even use so much but I applied a darker shade of green on my lower lid 😂.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME / Birthday Makeover Look

Hello Gorgeous,

I'm so grateful to God for all his good works, goodness and faithfulness in my life, I turned 24 years old on the 7th of January 2014, I spent the day at work, then I went for a quick dinner and spent the rest in church before going home,  I got lots of gifts too from my JLisa's A-Z Birthday Wish-List and I am grateful to God in all.

Back to Beauty;

So here's a look I did on my birthday, very simple and classy, can be worn out for Glamour Outings, Bridal Look, Date nights, any outing in fact.

I have been trying to post a Video Tutorial on this Look but the network here has been terrible, so hopefully whenever it decides to upload successfully you get to watch it.....

Products I used;

Face
- M.A.C Match master foundation in 8.5
- M.A.C Mineralised Skin finish natural in deep dark
- Cetaphil Moisturiser
- M.A.C Fix+
- Coastal Scents concealer
- Sleek Contour Kit in Medium

Cheeks

- Mud Espresso eye shadow (Applied to my crease)

Brows

Lips
- Tea Tree Lip Moisturizer
- M.A.C Riri-woo
- M.A.C Ruby woo


Combining Riri woo & Ruby woo was absolutely Awesome, when I reviewed both lipsticks I didn't really notice the difference, then I saw a Makeup Artist's display picture on my BBM and I had to ask her how she got that look and BOOM I was amazed, I had to try it on as well.

How to Apply both Lipsticks;

First apply a Lip primer or balm on your lip to prevent the application from creasing, then Apply Ruby woo around the Outer corner of your Lips, Finish up the look with Riri woo in the middle of your lip and blend both......
