My Lucid Intervals

I am still alive. :) Hello MLI readers! I know I have not been blogging lately primarily because of my career/profession. A lot of wonderful opportunities have been presented to me and I am just overwhelmed with these blessings. All my praises and thanks to the Almighty. As you all know, blogging is not my bread and butter (I wish it was!). Thus, my career comes first before blogging. I want to thank my readers who still frequent my blog despite my intermittent posts. I know most of you love my blog because of the makeup looks I did before. I am trying my best to bring them back, just trying to get settled with my career. I do not want my blog to be all beauty reviews and swatches! waahh. This is what the makeup that I will wear everyday in the office or when I go out with boyfriend. Well, I was never fond of wearing eyeshadow when going out. This is nothing special but I want to share this post to all of you.

I never go out of the house without moisturizer. I am loving my physiogel cream. :) My rashes are now gone. Also, I am now back with Belo Face Sunblock SPF45 because I ran out of my Neutrogena Hydroboost which I really love.

After applying moisturizer and sunblock (I do not apply toner), I applied my HG liquid foundation- MAC Studiofix in NC35. I do not normally wear this everyday. For everyday use, I tend to reach for my BB Creams more often. Then I applied concealer under my under eyes. I use my favorite K Palette Zero Kuma Concealer. I am addicted to using cosmetic wedges (sponge) lately. I got a great deal on this one. I bought a 32 pc. pack in Landmark for 119.75 pesos only. The brand is Cala Studio.

For the eyes, these are the products I have been using everyday. Just the essential, L'oreal Voluminous Mascara in Carbon Black, Nichido Mineral Kohl Liner in Onyx, K-Palette 2 Way Lasting Brow Liner, K-Palette Liquid Liner, and my Nichido Mineral Concealer. I use my Nichido Mineral Concealer to line my waterline. I took note of one anonymous comment on my blog telling me that my eyes looked smaller with black liner on my waterline. Thanks for this comment whoever you are! :) I am loving the effect of the Nichido Concealer in the shade Natural on my waterline. It gives my eyes a brightening effect without looking too unnatural.I find using white eyeliner on my waterline may look a bit too harsh for everyday wear. :( . I can not find a beige eyeliner here in the Philippines but this concealer pencil works perfectly fine. It did not cause any irritation to my eyes.Also, I have been obsessed with piling up loads of mascara on my lower lashes. This technique made my eyes look bigger.

On my lips: EOS lipbalm, Nichido lip liner in Rosette and NYX soft matte lipcream. I have to admit, I am addicted to the NYX Soft Matte lip creams. I did not like them initially but after months of usage, I am in love with it. Perfect for everyday wear especially the shades Stockholm and Antwerp. I badly need back ups for these shades.

Loving the combination of Wet n Wild Goddess Bronzer as contour powder and NYX in Pinched which is a great knock off for Nars blush in Orgasm. I am currently sick right now and I am taking this opportune time to update this blog.

Godbless everyone!
