Gyaru inspired look

Gyaru, is a term in Japan, meaning "gal" which defines a whole subculture of styles in Japan. They are definitely "well-known" for their style, and individuality. The main objective of most gyaru eye make-up, is to open up the eye, also referred to as a doll-eye look. White or a shimmery shadow or liner is used on the inner corner of the eye to create that effect. Skin is usually powdered to a flawless finish with pink lips, and pink on the apples of the cheeks. Eyelashes are usually framing the eyes, very accentuated and thick, on both the bottom and top. Fake lashes are usually used.







I chose to stick with very neutral colors, so it wouldn't distract too much~

Glam it up ;)

As you all know, it's prom season, and everybody is scrambling to get their dresses, super cute accessories, and shoes shoes shoes. For me it's no different, I've already bought my dream dress, and it being a saturday, I thought I'd hit the mall. Since my dress of choice is champagne, what better to compliment it than gold and pearls? Aldo, was my store of choice, and I must admit, they have the cutest stuff, and for an affordable price. Don't hesitate, go to Aldos and do yourself right ;) So on with the goodies:

so what do you think? :)

M.A.C Studio Sculpt Review

In all honesty, even with my M.A.C fetish, I have never ever tried their foundations -- my boyfriend complains I don't need it. Me being on spring break, and having all the time in world, I decided to pay M.A.C a visit. I have really oily skin, where things tend to slide off in the middle of the day, and the previous products I've tried, -- drugstore brands -- do no justice for me. I have hyperpigmentation in the forehead, and very acne prone in the t-zone. At first, when the worker recommended studio sculpt, I was very skeptical. She offered me two samples NC40 and NC42, and I decided, to hell with it, I was gonna buy it anyway, since I would be too lazy to come back another day. && luckily for me, I got the last NC42. It's almost been a week since I last bought the studio sculpt, and as my first M.A.C foundation choice, I honestly love it. It goes on really well, (stipling please!) the finish is really dewy and natural, and it even covers my super dark forehead. It makes my skin look really flawless, and smooth, and to keep it on longer, just apply some translucent powder to finish it off. When I touch my face, it doesn't even feel like I have make-up on. It didn't even make me break out more than I normally do! Although, I do need some prep+prime to cover up my pores, which I will look into later (:

I don't know about you, but that looks perfect to me!
