Yes! I finally had some time to create an FOTD entry! Actually, this look had been in my mind since December last year but I had been too busy to do it. It’s inspired from Jiyeon’s makeup in T-ara’s Sexy Love music video and Taylor Momsen’s smokey eye-that’s-never-coming-off. I’d specially bought Make Up [...]

If you’re still thinking of a Valentine’s Day look, here’s a suggestion! Try something smokey with long lashes that aren’t too heavy and lips that don’t require a lot of colour. Highlight cheekbones and brow bones at the very least. This is keeping in mind that Valentine’s means a nice, romantic dinner with your significant [...]

Posted by Roxanne Chia on October 9, 2012 · 49271 Comment2012-10-09+04%3A00%3A37Roxanne+Chia

Here it is! Finally, my Fall 2012 look. It’s got something dark, something smokey yet at the same time it’s romantic and sensual (it’s all about the lips, yo). As I am typing this, an idea for the Holiday 2012 look is forming in my head but let’s not get carried away just yet. For [...]

I created this smokey glam look with the Rimmel Glam’Eyes Quad Eyeshadow palette in 002 Smokey Brun, which came in my September 2012 Vanity Trove. I really like how the look turned out in the end, especially with the coloured contact lenses from GEO. This is the first time I’ve ever worn [...]

FOTD: Blues of a Mermaid

Mermaid blues, pearls, glittery nails and a turquoise flower in her hair.

I’ve always wanted to do a mermaid look but never had the time to. This is especially so because to create an under-the-sea look, there is this unsaid need for props and not just makeup alone. I spent a total of 3 hours to get this one right from the start of my manicure, to [...]

Green has been a colour that’s always captivated me somehow, especially dark, royal green. I’ve always envisioned myself one day being deep in the Amazon and all I would see is this lush, thick green and I would be happy. But that isn’t happening anytime soon so here’s a look that captures that deep green [...]

Doing this look took me quite some time, even though it was still faster than I’d expected. For this smokey Barbie look, I did everything under the sun – smokey eye colours, heavy false lashes, shimmer blush, contour (even for the nose), lip colour and filling in of my brows. The number of products I [...]

I finally had some time this past Friday evening to play around with some new Kate Cosmetics makeup and create a shimmery brown smoky eye look. It’s my first time experimenting with Kate Cosmetics and I liked what I finally came up with. This look features products from Kate’s SS 2012 Collection and here are [...]
