Friday Night And Nyx

Having a good result may not be very expensive. Just like what I wore last Friday. It was my rest day, went to Bugis for a little shopping and went to Ice Cold Beer at Orchard Road for dinner and few drinks. (thanks Airish Aguil =) )


I had much time to prepare since I was not in my usual I'm-rushing-once-again mode because first, I have all the time in the world because nobody is waiting for me since everyone else was still at work. Was about to meet with Jay and our friends after they get off work. And for that, I had realized the value of not so expensive products like Nyx. They do have a wide range of cosmetics. But round lippies are my favorite. If you have a tight budget for make up, Nyx will definitely be your BFF. I recently discovered the Jumbo Eye Pencil. It was supposedly used for the eyes, as the name implies, but I found a friend in you (jumbo eye pencil) for my stubborn eyebrows. Here's how my undefined brows look like with camera flash (photo taken few months back)


Eeeewww right? Eeewww to undefined brows. Have said this a thousand times, eyebrows can make or break your face. Even if you put so much effort on your eyes, or lips, the brows are very noticeable.  

Tutorial once again =) Using Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil, create small dots on your brows. Dark brown is what I am using, you may have 3-4 dots. It appears very dark and overdoing it will not look good,trust me.


Then using your eyebrow brush,shape and blend. Remember to blend very well. The best thing about it, it naturally appears oily and that makes it easier to blend, unlike powder or pencil, even if you are a beginner, you can easily blend it.

Blending is the secret. If you are still not convinced, you may use a blending brush to make it look more natural.


Blend blend blend til you get your preferred thickness and shade.

The before and after

Not convinced yet? Here's what A perfect brows can do to your face, with or without camera flash.

 

And for my lips, Nyx Round Lipstick in B52
