For the "Glam" of it

Priming. Priming eyelids with Elf Eyelid Primer and my face with Elf Mineral Infused Face Primer took my make-up to the next level- it really kept my make-up from going wonky midday.

I was using gel-eyeliner, which is super bold and really stands out against my brown skin, but it kept transferring to my eyelid and making me look like I got punched in the eye. Then I discovered that if I patted on a bit of translucent powder, the liner could last up to 6 hours without running or fading a lot.

And of course, I couldn't live without my Japanese gyaru lashes. They really transform my eyes in a way that just mascara couldn't.

Learning how to contour my face was also one of the best things I could have learned.

I have not long started using eye primer too, it makes quite a difference, I was impressed.

Anyone tried lip scrub...what did you think ? I use a lot of lip balm and wondered if this would be good or maybe a waste of money and I should just use my face exfoliater on my lips too.

Dont spend money on one, you can use a little sugar, honey, itty bit of olive oil to make your own. Every now and then, it feels really good and the taste isn't bad.

Okay... can't be the only weirdo who likes Gyaru make-up...

I just love that dolly, big-eyed look. But I'm too scared to buy the circle lenses *le sigh*

Thank you Besame for posting this, I may never buy commercial lip scrub again

I haven't found an eye primer that I like, but I use this smashbox primer and it works really well. Even if you try really hard to sweat all your makeup off, it won't let you.

And this eyeliner is amazing. I received it in a birchbox and it's the best I've ever used. It works really well for tightlining your eyes (getting between the lashes).
