Twenty Six
I wanted to do a more “meaningful” entry for my 26th birthday post — but it has come to this instead, a birthday FOTD, surprise surprise. I initially thought of writing about “26 Decisions That Made Me Who I Am Today” but good Lord, just halfway through listing all them down, I was like, “How the hell do I craft this post so anyone reading it won’t fall asleep by the end!?” Ha ha!
For now, I’ll leave you with my ‘birthday makeup’ which I only ruined completely, by the way, when I bawled my eyes out later that afternoon (I was gifted my period on the same day so yay, hormones and emotions for lunch!). At least I was able to test the Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill waterproof mascara’s claims. Have to say — it withstood the ocean of tears without running, smearing or smudging!!


The Look
Products Used:
Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick
Bobbi Brown Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick
Tom Ford Cognac Sable
Tom Ford Crimson Noir
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural
MAC Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone
Giorgio Armani ETK Mascara
What? Is this true? Is Tom Ford Crimson Noir really making an appearance on this blog (and my face!?)? I officially dub it my ‘daytime red’ – as Lipstick Queen Entourage is ‘too much for the day‘, the husband says. I did bring it with me though and slapped it on immediately after the sun set. I was supposed to go for Tom Ford Orchid Haze as it’s one of my favorite palettes of all time but I felt like giving some lovin’ to an overlooked palette in my stash, Cognac Sable.
I wanted a FULL ON GLOOOHW with a hint of warmth so I whipped out the Bobbi Brown Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick. For base, I applied my favorite mattifying primer — the MAC Skin Refined Zone Treatment — on my t-zone and cheeks first, the Bobbi Brown Corrector in Peach on my undereyes and finally the Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick in Warm Beige all over. To finish up, I used the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural. I probably should have used a makeup setting spray (that makes everything waterproof!) had I known I’ll be overcome with a wave of emotions later on that day, LOL.
For all those who sent in their birthday greetings, thank you so much, you guys!
