Pink and Undecided: summer fairytale

IBB Make Up Challenge February 2014

Hi, my dears!

I haven't joined any make up challenge lately mainly because my not-very-high skill with make up *LOL*, especially when MUCs that's been swirling around in the beauty community has been getting crazier and crazier in concept (meaning : i do not have to skill to create a look suitable for the challenge) but when i see IBB MUC (in case anyone's not familiar with IBB, where have you been? It stands for the fabulous community that is Indonesian Beauty Blogger, of course!) with a theme that's super close to my heart (i love everything princessy, pastel, fairish! Rainbow, unicorn and everything nice, awwww) i knew i have to join it (for fun!) :D.


IBB MUC February 2014 : Summer Fairytale

IBB's February MUC's sponsored by my favorite make up brand : Etude House, all the more reasons that i have to join this!

And no, i KNOW it's already March, but i'm not too late to join this since they've extended the submitting date to March 6th (so if you're interested to join this, HURRY!). I always associated summer with white sundresses and pretty daisies, while fairy tales would always means beautiful pastel colors, so combining those two elements in my entire look, here's what i came up with :

I'm super bad at naming anything, but let's call this look... Summer Fairy?

I know my make up skill's far from being good, but i am pretty happy with the result :D! That explains the number of cam-ho'ing pictures that i took yesterday (when i did the look) :p! I actually been meaning to join this MUC since the beginning, but i was too busy with my Hong Kong trip, and once i got back a huge pimple appeared on my cheek (you can still see the fading scar. I guess my skin got shocked by the crazy weather changes, the super cold 2 -7 degrees celcius Hong Kong to humid and hot Singapore and Indonesia) and that totally ruined my mood for any MUC! Thankfully they decided to postpone the closing date so i can finally join it, yay!!!

Here's a simple tutorial on how to achieve this look :


1. Bare face, 2. Base : ETUDE HOUSE AC Clinic Daily Sun BB SPF 30/PA++, ETUDE HOUSE Surprise Essence Concealer (shade #1), ETUDE HOUSE Proof 10 Eye Primer, Collection Pressed Powder (10 Daydream-which is too yellow for me >.< but it's still usable, 3. Eyebrow : The newest step in my make up routine, adding Eyebrow Mascara (The Face Shop Color My Eyebrow in 02 Light Brown)


1. Use pastel mint eyeshadow on the outer corner of your eyes, use the leftover color to lightly color your eye socket and inner part, 2. Use bright blue eye shadow in the inner corner of your eyes, 3. Use pinky lilac eye shadow in the middle part of your eyelid. Product used : Aphrology Eye Shadow Palette

1. Blend everything together, 2. Fairy must have a pixie dust, i added Oriflame White Shimmer Loose Eyeshadow on my brow bone, in the middle part of my lid (on top of the pinky lilac eyeshadow) and in the inner part of my eye-near the tear duct

Line your eyes dramatically, bring it downward a little bit and drag longer for an innocent, eyes look. Product used : NYX liquid eyeliner & Maybelline Hyper Gloss Liquid Eyeliner. Curl and put on your fave volumizing mascara (i used Collection Killer Curves Mascara, but it is not one of my fave mascara BY FAR). I should've added falsies for a more dramatic result but i was in a hurry and my horrible technique means i need a LOT of time to stick on my falsies!

Line your waterline with blue eye shadow (the same one you used for the inner corner of your eyes), top it up with black eyeliner (i used Collection Eyeshadow Pencil in Midnight Glam) from the outer corner of your waterline up to the middle part. Continue the other half with bling2 eyeliner (i used Collection Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner in 1 Glitz). Then add sweet pink blush to compliment the sweet, innocent look (i used old ETUDE HOUSE blush on : Bloomade Blusher in #6 Geranium Bloom)

Complete the look with sweet pink lip stick (don't forget to apply lip balm to avoid chapped lips!)-i used Oriflame Tender Care + Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick 116 Candy. I also added white shimmery powder on my nose bridge to create the illusion of a higher nose bridge :). Since i am always thorough, not only i dressed up to match the theme, i also painted my nails with the appropriate color, representing summer and to match my daisy head band : bright yellow nails (The Face Shop YL702)

Ready for more narcissistic photos?

I finally got to use my daisy flower wreath headband (bought in New Look for IDR 69.000)

I've always wanted to take pictures with this style *LOL*

I actually wore this look to CW minus the flower wreath (people will definitely stare *sigh*). White Lace Inner : Forever 21, White Mini Dress : Korz. I will blog more about this look separately :)

A closer look to my flower wreath. I absolutely adore it and wish these kinds are more readily available in Indonesia (with decent prices. Accessorize got plenty of them but they're very pricey!), the loose kind-i hate the stretchy kind that would make your hair pop up weirdly

I asked my hunny to snap some pictures of me but as usual, he made me look very mean (think Disney Villain as opposed to Disney Princesses/fairies that i was aiming for), like this one!

I hope you like the look i created (and if you don't please don't be too mean to me *LOL*)! IBB already have another MUC for March, wonder if i should join it too :)..
