Tutorial: My Everyday (Dark) Makeup Look

Hey, everyone! I am so excited today because I will share my 2nd tutorial. *yeay* This is a simple one, like I promise you before, I will give makeup tutorial using Professional Cantik Manis Gel Eyeliner that I reviewed before. This makeup look is kind of smokey eyes but, it is more simple and easier! I usually use this kind of makeup to go out at night, to hang out with my friends, or other activity at night time. I found this look is very simple, and I got the inspiration from Hannah Cho, she is famous in Youtube not just because the beauty product review, but I love all her stuffs and thoughts! :)

Are you ready? Let's start from the beginning...
Above:
Beauty Cream Nature Basic Concealer (review here)
Maybelline Unstoppable Black Pencil Eyeliner
Viva Black Eyebrow Pencil
Professional Cantik Manis Black Gel Eyeliner (review here)
MAC Eye Shadow
Maybelline Volum Express Cat Eyes Mascara


Bottom:
Maybelline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation 12 Natural Foundation 
Maybelline Clear Smooth Extra Natural Powder Foundation
Revlon Powder Blush 05 Berry Rich Blush On
Sylva Serene Coral Lipstick


From left to right:
Eyelashes curler, cheek brush, small eye shadow brush, eyebrow brush, blend eyeshadow brush, gel eyeliner brush

Step 1 & 2:
I applied concealer under my eyes, and other spots that I want to cover. And I applied liquid foundation to get smoother and flawless look. Oh, before I did all that, I didn't forget to put on my face moisturizer.
(sorry for blur photo, I made a mistake!) 

Step 3:
I filled my eyebrow with black eyebrow pencil. And brush it to make it more natural.

Step 4:
I applied black pencil eyeliner in inner upper line of my eyes to get stronger look. (I always do this before I apply my eye makeup)

Step 5:
By using the same black pencil eyeliner, I marked my eyes way a little bit higher that my eyelid, because that's the spot where I will fill it with the gel eyeliner.

Step 6:
I filled my eyelid with gel eyeliner. Apply it slowly until the whole part under the mark. Don't worry about the rest of the black pencil mark.

This is my eye looks like when I open it.

Step 7:
I applied black eyeshadow on top the line that I made before. I used small eyeshadow brush.

Step 8:
I applied white glittery eyeshadow on top the black eyeshadow. I use the blend brush (the bigger one).

These are the colors that I use.

Step 9:
I lined my bottom line of my eye, from the outer corner to the middle with black pencil eyeliner. Then I smudge it.

Step 10:
I curled my top and bottom lashes, and applied mascara, thick one.

Step 11, 12, & 13:
I applied powder foundation, blush my cheek, and put on lipstick. VOILA!

THE RESULT:
 
So, what do you think about this tutorial? Ooo, this look suits for monolid eyes! :) I hope you like my tutorial. You can comment or tweet me @notjustbeauty. Or you can twitpic me with this look! I will be very excited if you are. :)

Review: Professional Cantik Manis Gel Eyeliner

Hello, everyone! Today I'll review a beauty product that I can't find in Indonesia, but the brand uses Indonesian language! Unique rite? I will review Professional Cantik Manis Gel Eyeliner. This is my first gel eyeliner actually (since I'm a new comer in beauty world). And I found this gel eyeliner in Hongkong. And the storekeeper said that this is the best seller one in one of  drugstores there. So, I bought it.

And I curious with the brand, I thought this is Indonesian brand tho! After that I googled it and I found that this is Japanese brand. I still don't know why Japan use Indonesian words for this brand. Anyone knows? :p But after all the history, I love this eyeliner, it is solid and I can wear for a long time. 

This is the packaging. I didn't lie rite? :p

It came along with the eyeliner brush.

This is the gel eyeliner looks like.

This is the gel eyeliner looks like when applied to my skin.

What I love?
  • Solid, makes easy to apply.
  • Waterproof, long wear.
  • Not expensive at all!
  • It creates very dark black.
What I hate?
  • Kinda easy to harden, so I have to mix it with water.
  • The eyeliner brush is not really good. :(
Price?
  • Forgot! But definitely under IDR 100000
Repurchased?
  • Yes, if I have trip to Hongkong. :p
Recommended?
  • Of course!
If anyone know the history of this product, let me know! I mean, we should be proud as Indonesian to have our language used as Japan beauty product! Or perhaps anyone of you use this brand also? You may comment or tweet me @notjustbeauty. (ps: wait for my tutorial with this product!)

Thank you for reading, my readers. :*
