 Quick post here. Decided to be toned down for Halloween this year. Last year was a Sally/Jack Skellington kinda look but now I decided to just do stretched lips. I actually used Promise Phan's video as a guide since that video was the first stretched lips tutorial I saw in Youtube. I don't have the Makeup Forever palette she has so I just used the materials I have.

Products used:
Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm
L'Oreal Color Riche in 374 Intense Plum
Maybelline Gel Eyeliner in 01 Black
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk
essence CoverStick in 03 Matt Honey

Tools used:
Suesh Lip Brush
Royal & Langnickel C450 Flat Eyeliner Brush
Cosmoprof #3 Lip Brush

Happy Halloween everybody! xx

Heyy! I finally had the time to play with some of the shadows from the Sleek Au Naturel palette. I didn't really know what look to do so I kind of just went with whatever shadow I saw first. The shadow I saw first was a dark one but I didn't really want to go for a dark look so I countered it with a light shimmery shadow. I still wanted to incorporate a neutral shadow here to also tone it down. And here's the final look. :)

Eye products used:
MAC Painterly Paint Pot
Urban Decay shadow in Freestyle (lid wash)
Sleek shadow in Mineral Earth (middle and outer lid;  lower lashline)
Sleek shadow in Taupe (inner lid, middle lid overlapping Mineral Earth)
San San shadow in Warm Copper Fire (crease)
Sleek shadow in Regal (outer lid)
Urban Decay shadow in Kinky (brow bone highlight)
MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack

PS. Yes, I am still obsessed with Warm Copper Fire. :D
PPS. Title is from Panic! At The Disco's "Far Too Young to Die".

Last Saturday, I was able to see essence's new collection here in Singapore: Floral Grunge. If there's one product that caught my attention, it's definitely the hair dye powder. If you love hair chalk, you'll love this even more.

Black shadows are makeup staples. You can use it for smokey eyes, for filling your brows (that's if you really want a strong in-your-face brows), for creating depth in the outer v, for lining your eyes, and for setting your creamy or liquid liner. I absolutely love black shadows that are very opaque, especially in just one swipe. My favorite finish is matte and matte black shadows are usually the most opaque ones.

List:
L-R:

a. Carbon (from MAC quad, Athma); a matte black. This was a disappoint to me since I've heard a lot of raves about Carbon. The one on the Athma quad was so dry and quite sheer and as pictured, patchy. Please tell me Carbon isn't like this anymore!

b. Noir (Sleek Au Naturel palette); a dark matte black. Absolutely love this as it's decently dark and not sheer at all. I used this shadow on my brows on my previous LOTD, Miss Lily.

c. Creep (UD Naked palette); blue-black shadow with silver shimmer/glitter.

d. Blackout (UD Smoked palette); deep dark matte black. It's such a buttery shadow and it's very opaque too!

e. Oddfellow (Kat Von D Candelabra palette); a matte black with blue, green, and silver glitter. Not as pigmented as the others but it's definitely better than Carbon.

f. Blacksmith (Kat Von D Candelabra palette); a matte black with silver glitter. 

g. NYX Black shadow (NYX Make-Up Artist palette); a medium black with a hint of brown undertone.

h. Cosmoprof Black shadow (Cosmoprof Eye palette); a sheer-medium matte black. Has the same dry texture as Carbon but is more pigmented and it's not patchy.

j. Crave (UD Naked Basics palette); matte black with brown undertone. Another very pigmented UD shadow, same as Blackout except this is brown/black while Blackout is just a solid black shadow.

 Happy Friday! Here's the last San San shadow I got, Charcoal Brown. And it's gorgeooooooouuuuuus.

I previously reviewed Warm Copper Fire and now I have Deep Earth Brown. Yes, another neutral shadow. :))

In case you're living under a rock, San San came out with 20 (!) affordable (!) eyeshadows three to five months ago and almost all Filipino bloggers raved about how awesome they are. I only learned about this last month which makes me real late and a loser. Trololol. Anyway, I only got three shadows from the line and they're all neutrals. This is the first one.

 Hey hey! So I'm leaving PH today to spend the next four weeks in SG. Can't wait to go to my favorite places again *cough* Orchard Road/H&M/Plaza Singapura *cough* and eat authentic dishes and ride the MRTs and buses and play with my adorbz nephew! Also, I'm open to collabs and stuff so do hit me up if you're interested. Hmm, what else? Ah, since I'll have limited access to a laptop, I prepared queued posts here in my blog so it wouldn't be desolated and boring. The queued posts are makeup posts of course, in case you're wondering. I've got reviews and swatches. I'll try to update with non-queued posts though. I might be MIA here but I'll be active in Twitter and Instagram (@shaunnekimberly).

That's it. Ciao!

 Ah, fall season. The perfect time to wear rich dark colors and all things vampy. Since dark plum lips are always present this time, I have two lovely and affordable lip pencils to get you covered. These are from LA Colors called Smooth Plum and Deepest Purple. I got these a year ago when I had a dark lip obsession. At first glance, they might look too similar that you wouldn't bother buying both. But they aren't. Yes, they're both dark and plummy but look closely and you'll see they're quite different. At the swatch photo, top swatch is Smooth Plum and the bottom one is Deepest Purple. Smooth Plum is a dark plum red. You can really see how red it is and it can pass as a dark red lip pencil. Deepest Purple on the other hand is more like a deep red brown. I have no idea why they call it purple when it's far from purple. :)) If you see a hint of purple, please let me know; I'll have my eyes fixed asap. :P

I got these pencils from Watsons in Sta. Lucia East Grand Mall. If I remember correctly, I got each for around 90php but I'm not sure how much these are now or if they're still available in pencil form (they currently carry automatic lip pencils too). Do check out their Facebook page for more info.

Plum lips for fall: yay or nay? Mine's yay all the waaaaaaaaay. :)
So...anyone up for Cloudy with a Chance of Grays? *hee hee* *corny* *okay.gif*

Anywaaaaaaay, here's a little compilation swatches of the gray swatches I have. I don't have a lot of palettes really so my grays are pretty limited too. Not really a big fan of grays but it's something I'd like to try and wear in the future.

List: L-R
a. NYX Gray shadow (part of the NYX Make-Up Artist Kit); a shimmery dark gray with a hint of a brown undertone.

b. Gunmetal (UD Naked palette); blue-gray metallic shadow.

c. Asphalt (UD Smoked palette); medium dark-gray on the pan but it goes black gray when swatched and used.

d. Silver Sage (Elizabeth Arden); a sheer medium gray with olive undertone.

e. Pewter (Elizabeth Arden); a very light gray shimmery shadow, almost bordering on silver.

f. #14 (Essence); reviewed previously. Shimmery gray shadow that's a bit sheer with micro flecks of glitter.

g. Slate (Elizabeth Arden); dark gray shimmer shadow.

 My first essence shadow that I got for free 3 months ago.

 An alternative to your favorite eyeshadow primer, a lovely cream base.


 This silver polish that made me feel like the queen of extra terrestrial beings. :P
 I got Cottage Cheese two years ago because of Allison/Amarixe. She used it in some of her past tutorials as a base for her shadows and I wanted to have one for myself. So yeah, I got it so I can play with it but I wasn't able to use it that much because I usually go for Milk. I was rummaging through my eye pencil bag one day and there it was. So I decided to take it out and study stare at it.

Cottage Cheese is basically shimmer in pencil form. I like to describe it as the Ke$ha version of Milk, all shimmery and sparkling and stuff. It isn't a stark white pencil though, more like shimmery white with a hint of yellow/gold undertone (hence the name Cottage Cheese I guess). Just like other jumbo pencils, it can be used as a base or liner. I don't like it as a base personally just because it gets messy because of the shimmer, plus the shimmer transfers to your finger when you blend it out. It'll be perfect as a highlight though. It will definitely work gorgeously as a brow bone highlight, inner eye highlight, and probably as a nose bridge and cheekbone highlight. It'll work as a lip highlight too! Ah yes, the uses of a gorgeous shimmery pencil.
Birthday. Despedida. Mini family gathering.

Fairly new show but OMFG it's so freaking good I can't even.
