Tanya Burr Inspired, "How to look gorgeous on a night out"

So last Friday, me and my husband were invited on a surprise birthday celebration. Since it was my first time to go on like a "night out" here in Norway I decided to do a look that is gorgeous but not so overwhelming, and I came across with one of the videos of Tanya Burr. I love her! She's one of my favourite youtube make-up guru. And I thought why not remake this look?



1. Moisturize face, and apply primer if preferred.

2. Fill in eyebrows: I use Maybelline quad #4 shade in filling my inner brow, and use a dark brown e/s to fill in the rest

3. Apply foundation, I use Revlon Colorstay in 240 Medium beige with a flat top brush.

4. Apply eye primer or base.

5. Apply White shimmer e/s all over lids.

6. Using an angled liner brush, apply Black matte e/s on the lash line, make a wing and bring it up to the crease. Blend the hard edges.

7. With a medium and dark shimmer Purple e/s, apply it on the outer V area. Again, blend the hard edges. And apply the same color on the lower lash line.

8. Using a waterproof eyeliner, apply a thin line on the lash line.

9. Set using your powder, I use Mac studio fix in NC30.

10. Apply your favourite mascara.

11. Using a bronzer and an angled brush, contour the cheeks.

12. Using the same brush, I apply creme eyeshadow on the apples of my cheeks.

13. To finish it off, I use Mac Diva on my lips.


Products used:

* Maybelline quad palette in Wood rose
* Dark brown e/s from make-up Mekka
* Revlon Colorstay foundation in shade 240 
* Mac prep+prime eye primer in medium
* BHCosmetics 120 color palette 5th edition
* Lancome palette, best of color focus
* BHCosmetics waterproof liquid eyeliner
* Mac Studio fix powder, NC30
* BHCosmetics Jumbo pencil concealer in Fair
* Maybelline Stiletto mascara
* Bronzer in the Sephora blockbuster palette
* L'oreal Cream blush in 896
* Mac Diva matte lipstick

What do you think of this look? Let me know! :)

Furless Bamboo brush set

So weeks ago, I was searching for a good quality brush set. I've also been wanting to buy Beauty Cosmetics Face Perfection brush set, because I have read great review about that particular set from Ms. Iya Boto which I find it very helpful. I love the flat top kabuki brush!! Click here to read the review.
But then, I found out about this certain brand called FURLESS Cosmetics so I go into details about this certain brand.

As I explore their website, I was amazed because all their brushes are proudly "Vegan friendly" meaning no single animal hair were used! Wow! Also, they promised to NEVER sell cheap, ugly scratchy brush ever! another wow! Plus they have Money Back Guarantee for unsatisfied customers, how great! But the thing that catch my attention and the eagerness to place my first order was, they give discounts to bloggers / video bloggers / make up artist. YES! You read that right! They will give you 50% discount on your first order, then 20% on future orders. AHHH. Isn't it a great deal? *giggles*All you need to do is to apply for the discount code, don't worry it's easy plus the one who assisted me with questions, Coralie Ryan was so friendly and accommodating answering my emails. So then I decided my to place my first order.

I puchased the Mini Bamboo make up brush set. (travel size), since I'll be spending Holidays in the Philippines I need to have a travel sized brush set to bring along with me.

I placed my order last November 6 and came in the mail November 13. So it was pretty fast since it came from Australia. They also offer FLAT RATE for online orders, of just 12.95 Australian dollars.

the pouch has a small pocket so you can put other stuff in there, nice!

the brushes, aren't they cute?

Powder brush, i super like the handle with printed "Furless" on it

Blush brush, I think it can be a good liquid foundation brush too

Crease brush

2 eyeshadow brushes

Angled eyeliner brush

Spool brush

It comes with the following brushes:
• Powder brush
• Blush brush
• 2 eyeshadow brushes
• Crease brush
• Angled eyeliner brush
• Spool (lash/brow groomer)


♦ Perfect for travel that comes with a pouch
♦ Handles are nice. It has the brand name printed on each handle.
♦ Brushes are so SOFT and DENSE, every brush is.
♦ I pull the bristles of every brush, and guess what? No shedding at all.
♦ Classy looking brushes!

Did I like it? Am I satisfied with the brushes? Is it worth every cent?

I love it!! I love every brush in the set, especially the crease brush! And now I'm itching to buy their professional set! haha 

Thanks for reading loveys! Feel free to comment :)

Ho Ho Ho!

Christmas is just around the corner as they say, when the first "BER" month started. And so just last Thursday, I received hubby´s Christmas present for me. Ho ho ho! My first ever Macbook, since I was so passionate on making videos, and to blog almost every single day. He supports me all the way, since blogging is the thing I´m so into right now, especially with my spare time as sometimes I am busy with chores and taking care of our baby.

Right now, I´m still getting use to this apple thingy, cause it´s way different from my first laptop which is Vaio. Ain´t complaining darling! I have all the time to figure out these and that. And I´m so excited to make a lot of videos, but I´m still using hubby´s phone cause I´m having hard time using our camera as I cant able to see the screen as I film myself. geez!

But Christmas isn´t about gifts you will receive or give. It is more of the Christmas spirit that each person possess. As this time of giving, and enjoying simply what we have with our family, friends. How I wish it can be Christmas everyday? The SIMPLE JOYS! <3

Have you been naughty or nice? :) Santa´s still watching us. 

Join my giveaway here! Few days left!
