HyunA Bubble Pop Inspired Look




I was watching Hyuna's (현아 - 포미닛) ^^ new music video "Bubble Pop"  and I immediately fell in LOVE with her makeup with the pink lipstick!!  I don't really look good with red lipstick so I choose not to do the tutorial on her main jacket look (red lips).  I enjoyed doing this makeup tutorial and I hope you guys like it too!!!



I don't know why.. but the first thing that came up in my mind when I watched this music video was "Lee Hyori" -_-



This look would have looked SOOO much better if I actually had light brown hair like her! =( BOOOO!

It looks great with my everyday makeup.  It isn't TOO hot pink and
it look great with my skin tone color!




Here is a swatch of the MAC - Speed Dial




Ehgyo Ssal "애교살" - the kind of puffy part under their eyes. 
All the top korean PRETTY celebrities are known to have these.
It's different from bags and dark circles that you get from when you are tired.
A lot of people from korean get surgery to make ehgyo ssal under their eyes.
People with BIG eyes normally have this ^__^


My husband has ehgyo ssal AND a beauty mark.. eh.. not fair!!! ㅠㅠ

Smokey eye tutorial n°2 (using MAC eyeshadows)

Hey everyone!


So here's my second smokey eye tutorial.
I'm going to do kind of the opposite of what we did l did for the first smokey eye where I put the darkest shades on the lid and the lighter one in the crease. This time I'm keeping the lid light and putting the darker shades in the crease.
I'm using All That Glitters as my lightest shade, Twinks as my medium shade and Beauty Marked as the darkest (all from MAC). The other products I used are the same ones I used last time: Zero 24/7 eyeliner pencil from Urban Decay, False Lash Effect mascara from Max Factor, lashes from Claire's and Select Cover-up concealer from MAC. 


(BTW: all pictures are clickable for larger views!)
























I started off with my brows (using Brun eyeshadow / MAC), brow highlight (using Vanilla eyeshadow / MAC) and primed my eyes with Urban Decay Primer Potion.


























Next I applied the lightest shade, 
All That Glitters from MAC, on the lid with a flat shader brush (MAC 239) and the inner corner with a pencil brush (MAC 219), fading it towards the crease.
























I then put the medium shade, Twinks from MAC, in the crease and outer corner with a blending/crease brush (MAC 217) and smudged it along the lashes with a pencil brush.
























I lined my upper lashline with a black eyeliner pencil (Zero / Urban Decay). This doesn't have to be perfect cause we're going to smudge it out anyway.
























I used Beauty Marked from MAC and a pencil brush to smudge out the liner and darken the outer corner.
























On the lower lashline, I applied the same eye pencil to the waterline and smudged it in to the lashline. Again, doesn't have to be perfect, just make sure the line is thicker on the outer corner and thinner towards the inner corner.


























I then put All That Glitters on the inner half of the lower lashline and Twinks on the outer half.
























Finally, to finish the look I applied mascara (False Lash Effect / Max Factor) to the top and bottom lashes, added false lashes (Claire's, they don't have a name or number sorry) and concealer (Select cover-up NW20 / MAC).
























And that's it, all done!


Hope this helped and if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Smokey eye tutorial n°1 (using Urban Decay's Naked palette)

Hello!
Remember me :)?  I've been super busy, but I'm back and I have a tutorial for you!

This is gonna be a tutorial on one way of doing a smokey eye. For this look u only need 3 shades in whatever color you choose, a light one (Toasted / Urban Decay), medium ( Hustle / Urban Decay) and a dark shade (Creep / Urban Decay), a highlight color (Virgin / Urban Decay),an eyeliner pencil (Zero / Urban Decay) and mascara (False Lash Effect / Max Factor). The light color doesn't really have to be light. You can go as dark as you want, the light color just has to be lighter than the medium color and the medium color has to be lighter than the darkest one. Did that make sense? Yes? Good :)























I put my Tumblr url on the pictures before I decided to post them on here too, so ignore that or go check out my Tumblr!

I started off by doing what I do before pretty much any eye look. I primed my eye with Urban Decay Primer Potion (UDPP), filled in my brow with Brun and highlighted my brow bone with Vanilla, both from MAC.
I then lined my top and bottom lashline and waterline (tightline) with Zero 24/7 pencil form Urban Decay. Doesn't have to be neat, we're going to smudge it out anyway.






















Next, I smudged out the liner on the top and bottom with Hustle from Urban Decay (Naked Palette) with a pencil brush (MAC 219) and brought it up to the crease with a flat shader brush (MAC 239) and blended it out a little.























I then took my lightest shade, Toasted from Urban Decay (Naked Palette), and put it in the crease with a blending brush (MAC 217) and blended it upwards. You can go up to the brow as far as you like. Go back with your medium shade if you want to intensify it a little more after blending. I also smudged Toasted along the lower lashline with a pencil brush and put Virgin from Urban Decay (Naked Palette)in the inner corner as a highlight.
























To make the lashline even darker, I used Creep from Urban Decay (Naked Palette) right along the top and bottom lashes. Add plenty off mascara. I used Max Factor False Lash Effect. I also applied false lashes (I used lashes from Claire's), but that's totally optional! Finish with concealer under the eyes, I used MAC's Select Cover-up in NW20. You can do your concealer before you do anything else, but I prefer doing it last so I can wipe away any fallout that might have dropped under my eyes.























Et Voilà! You're smokey eyes are done!

Hope this was helpful and I'll be back with the second smokey eye soon!
