Makeup "Transformation"?

Hi! 

I got the idea of making a lot of differnet makeup looks/transformations. Not Promise Phan-like, but different  styles of makeup from around the world. I will be making these looks: 

Pin-up: 

Long lashes, naturel eyeshadows, high cheekbones and bright red lipstick! Possibly also a fake mole to complete the look. Pin-ups are sexy, funny and adorable at the same time, and their makeup is easy and fun to create! 

Ulzzang/Eouljjang

(Korean model Song Ah Ri)

Means "best face" in korean. It has become one of the most famous fashionstyles in South Korea. It's the babydoll concept of looking young, pure and cute. A lot of eyeliner, white eyeshadow underneath the eyes and "eyebags". Not to mention their sharp V-line faces (which means a sharp chin/a heartshaped face), naturel hair, and glowing and dewy skin. A new trend among ulzzangs too are "gradiant lips" as well. A cute look!

Doll/Gyaru

(Japanese POPTEEN-model Nana Suzuki)

First of all - gyaru's aren't meant to be doll, I know, that's not what they are going for, but with the big eyes and small face features it seems almost like it. Gyaru is a japanese fashionstyle, and the makeup consists of circle lenses, dramatic fake eyelashes, bottom eyelashes, brown or naturel eyeshadows, and lots of contouring is the key! While most gyaru's are slightly tanned compared to the ulzzangs. They also tend to look more grown-up than ulzzangs, and while ulzzang can be a very naturel makeuplooks, gyarus are meant to be dramatic and outstanding! Their hair is mostly blond/light, big and curly! 

"Indian Style" Makeup

I don't know if this belongs to any specific style, but I love the makeup that indian girls wear on special occasions! It's so colourful, bright and happy. There's mostly focus on the eyes, and less or none on lips/eyebrows/facial feautres. Their skin is kept naturel-looking yet flawless, and their makeup often fits their clothes. Hair, face and body is often filled with different asian jewelry. 

What's more beauitful than a bride? (Althought the bride on this picture doesn't look to happy hahah). Bridal makeup of course varies depending on where in the world you live, but since I live in the western world I will try to recreate that look. Bridal looks too vary from person to person. Some want naturel makeup, some want something more dramatic, colorful, dark or what ever. But I will go for the naturel innocent bridal look. Making the beautiful features stand out, and hiding the biggest flaws. A naturel all over makeup is good for any to-be bridal. The hair is often put up in a bun or another beuaitufl and calm way. 

Another (maybe slightly frighetning?) definitely different makeup look by the japanese again! This is called "ganguro" and is another undegroud streetstyle by the japanese girls. Their hair is often pastel coloured or another crazy colour and tuned all up. Long false and very decorative nails. They either tan a  lot or use a foundation a lot darker than their actual skintone, and create white panda-like circles around the entire eyearea, along with eyeliner down under the eye. Some use circle lenses as well. Then they "obviously" highlight the nose with white liner, and their lips as well. They often use small decoartional thiings on their cheeks such as pearls or stickers and glue them on with false eyelash glue - don't even use real glue! It's a very different and kind of funny look! 

These are all the different makeup looks I will be working on the upcoming days (or possibly weeks, I am not sure, sorry!) I wil try to recreate the makeup and if possible, the hair and clothes as well.

If anyone has more to add or other suggestions for me feel free to message me or comment down below!

Bye from now, hugs ~ ♥ 

Etude House Precious Mineral Sun BB Cream Review

Hi everyone! 

I have super many upcoming reviews, and I feel like I keep getting more and more skincare and makeup (yesterday invested in 5 makeup products!) but I try my best! 

This is my personal review of my first Etude House product ever! I've heard so much good about Etude House. Etude House is a very popular southkorean makeup/skincare-brand known for making ulzzang-makeup and products for sensitive asian skin! Unfortunately my skin isn't "asian" (oh really?), but I'll give it a shot. 

The western BB creams are a lot darker than the asian ones because the 'beauty' in asia is pale skin, while here tan skin is more popular. I am naturelly dead-pale and that's why asian bb creams fit my skin more. 

I recieved my BB cream SO quickly, I barely waited 14 days, and shipping was free! Thought it was a little pricey, but so worthy, this came to me in my mailbox! (Blurred out my adress)

This is (long name, I know): Etude House Precious Mineral Sun BB Cream with SPF 50

Whitening & Anti-wrinkle, Anti-darkening, and long lasting and waterproof, plus SPF 50? Is this not too much to ask for? I LOVE IT!

Here's the BB Cream, it comes with an automatic sponge-applicator which I prefer using because it covers super well! You can take the sponge-applicator off if you want to. 

(On this picture I had already tried it on for reviewing purposes before taking a picture. The sponge was pure white and unused before of course!)

The sponge is SUPER SOFT. Like petting a bunny or hugging a teddybear! *___* 

Look how pale it is? 

Here I am naked-faced, wearing nothing but the BB Cream. The picture is slightly blurry, but you can tell that my skin becomes really dewy, naturelly shiny and super flawless! (Sorry that I don't have a 'before'-picture to show you just how big the effect really is!) By the way, sorry for looking tired, it's taken in the morning, I just can't bother to look awake and happy. (Ohoho, the morning uglyness) ~~ 

Super dewy skin, right? I love it sooo much! ~

So all in all, what I think:

I love how long it lasts! It lasts through the entire day even after going to gym and sweating! And when you apply, it actually does make my face feel super cool and fresh. 

Light feeling, heavy coverage!

I was so surprised by the coverage because western BB creams doesn't really cover, only gives a little "teint". I didn't need any concealer on my pimples and only very little on my dark circles, my skin became flawless! Super many good points to Etude for that! 

However, it does not have any whitening effect for me, because I am so pale, but it's not a big bother for me. I'm pale enough, and the colour matches perfectly! I was scared it wouldn't, because I had to buy it online. 

It's a little pricey, but also worth it! 

However, there's not a lot of product in the container. It's very light already, and there's barely any bb cream inside. It's already so small! *Sigh* 

I recommend this for all skin types really, old, sensitive, acne, anything, because it hits everything and benefits all skin types perfectly! 

It is now my favorite BB cream, it has so many benefits it's almost a skincare product! (Ok, maybe not hahaha ~)

Wanna have flawless skin like all the beautiful ulzzang girls? Go buy Etude House! 

It's all for now. Byebye!
