Hi guys! Graduation is approaching. I know it's a one rare occasion that you'll gonna remember forever. It's an accomplishment after all the years of hard work. So are you ready for it? If not here are my top pics that you can totally rock for your graduation ceremony or party. :)

2: Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Trio (Silent Treatment)

A nice and defined brows is a must in any occasions, just stay away from black because it may look intense. If you don't like brown try grey.

 Instead of going for the classic neutral eyeshadow why not try this peach and taupe color, and with the right control of black I'm sure that your eyes will look defined and ready for selfies! :) You don't want look sleeply on you graduation, do you?

Then go ahead and apply an eyeliner and mascara. Make sure both are waterproof, even if you're not gonna cry, a waterproof makeup will stay longer than non-waterproof.

For that nice and glowing skin try to wear a luminizer blush on like this one from Holika Holika. Blush and Highlight in an instant. This will make your features standout not only in pictures but also in real life :D

5 Easy Ways to Small Pores!

A friend of mine once said that if she can totally eliminate her pores she would be a happy girl. And I asked why? And she replied "Because I want to have a super flawless skin." How about you? Have you ever wondered if it is possible to totally erase your pores? Well its not! And don't you think its too synthetic, if you do not have pores? Well if you really hate it. You can at least make them appear smaller. Let me tell you how to do that in 5 easy ways! :D

Never ever sleep with makeup on! It is the number one reason why most of us gets a larger pores.

 So cleanse your face regularly, meaning: every night. Especially if you are wearing makeup on a daily basis. Because your skin regenerates every time when you're asleep.

Try to use primers that "specializes on pores" like Benefit Porefessional Php 1900 or Maybelline Baby Skin Php 299. It will not only make your pores look smaller but also, your skin will be super supple making it a perfect canvas for your foundation.  If you are on the budget or you just don't want to use primer, here's a tip: before applying you makeup glide an ice cube on your entire face. It will minimize it right away! :)

Another solution is to use a Vitamin E rich product, like this moisturizer from Myra E. Which is by the way super affordable at Php 69. This is a non-greasy formula.

Don't apply heavily or else it will become "cakey" and will emphasize your pores even more! Especially if you have oily skin. Try to use a buffing brush, or apply as little as possible. If you need to cover up, use a concealer in those particular area instead of adding layers and layers of foundation.

This is my favorite trick. Its old fashioned but it works! When you're setting your face with a powder. Roll press it with a puff. If a little blending is needed then use a brush afterwards :) Trust me it can hold your concealer all day long and it makes your pores look super small :)

All of these are based on my readings and own experience.

I hope this blog post helped you out! :D If you have more suggestion then please do comment it below!

Thank you for visiting my blog! ♥

until next time :)

How to: Bitten Lips

Hi everyone :) So yesterday I was just surfing the net and I came across with a bitten lips photo. I really think that it's cute and girly :) So I was inspired to do this blog entry. I know Korean's are famous for this look. You'll get this lips naturally after drinking an orange juice, strawberry juice any sort for fruit juice :D Anyhow lets get started :D

Needed things:

1. 2 Lip Color (lighter and darker shade) You could also use a tint.
2. Concealer. 
3. Clear Lip gloss or something like this, or any product that will give you a lips a wet lips look.

Lets begin :)

Start by applying concealer all over you lips.

 And blend it good :D

Then apply the lighter lip color you have. If you are using a lip tint then just lightly apply it all over you lips.

I just applied lightly Avon's Color Bliss in Fresh Rose

Next is apply the darker/Saturated lip color on the inner part of your lips.

It should look like this

Then applied your clear lip gloss.

Tada! :D

Then I decided to apply mascara for Doll like effect :D

See, it adds drama to the look :D

This look is wearable everyday :) But if there's gonna be 'eating' involve like dinner etc then you'll have to bring all the products just to retouch. And I think its kinda hassle unlike just a regular lip look when you'll just have to glide on a lip color and you're good to go. Anyways I enjoyed doing this look hope you guys too :) That's it.
