Birthday face of the day beckons #by default
Turned on my iPod and this song was first to play...ツ
Shuffle mode is always on, so I got my inspirational looks/ideas from the first song that it plays.
Easy by Faith No More? C'mon! On my birthday? My iPod's doin' some prank on me or what? I dig the song but really? How to look 'easy' on this day?
I just smiled to myself..and no matter what happen, thanks to this revelatory song..
I must stick to this ode.
Funky, bluesy song eh?
Blue yes but there is no way
I am wearing blue shadows on my birthday.
As if my cobalt blue top is not sheer & deep enough,
What came to mind was?
..well, neutral you bet
but I wanted a neutral look that would just add a lil depth to my gaze,
something that won't look like your usual sunny side up eggs in the morning;
in simplest terms, no boring drama whatsoever.
Well hello Mr. Naked 2 what haf you got pour moi?
I asked E to pick shades for me while he was busy re-ironing his polo haha.
Snakebite, Verve & YDK.
dafuq Verve?
The least shade I use from this palette some more.
I immediately chose Foxy to highlight,
before he chooses"Pistol".
Punched my cheeks with Blossom, a peach/pink/coral;almost apricot toned blush from Burberry. I feel that the raw but luminous finish of the skin emanates whenever I use this blush, adorbs especially at night. One guest at the Ritz-Carlton even asked me which shade of blush I was using..apparently she waited for me to go to the ladies room so that she could ask me in private, an affable woman in her mid-30's, I presumed.
Sealed with a slightly winged liner, no falsies as my eyes were so itchy the night before and falsies actually make my eyes more irritated most of the time. Besides I left my Ardell Lash set at home too hehe excuses!
Not bad for E's choices eh? The I’m-there-but-I’m-not soft-grey-brown-eye shadow on my eyes, and those soft natural lashes... well, just made my special day -- E A S Y.
