Before anything else, congratulations to Pinoy Guy Guide for winning the Best Blog: Fashion and Lifestyle category! :mrgreen:


Chris with Nikka Abes of Nokia

Please take care of your trophy…I retouched that with lots of love! :lol:

Now on with how my longgggg day went (warning: v. photo heavy post!)…

My day started rather early yesterday. 6am-ish? I left shortly after posting the entry before this to meet him and run to 1 Esplanade. I had the gorgeous task of *ahem* guarding the door. :lol:


My sweeeeeet view! hahahaha


Me as lady door biatch Dora! :lol:

Mannnnn look at those bags! Anyhoo, here’s what I used:

I had a longggg night reviewing and my eyes’re blood shot. Thanks to Visine for saving ‘em!

Some more snaps of me “guarding” away:



What could’ve gotten me fired:


ZzzzzZzzz…

Shortly after lunch in MOA and retouching the trophies, Tiffy arrived and I worked on her makeup. We first did something pretty and sweet but later amped it something really smoky. So from Valerie Beauty Low Rise on her crease and MAD Minerals Black Cherry as liner, we darkened it to another layer of Low Rise (wet) then topped it with a good dose of MAC Pandamonium. I highlighted her browbone with MAC Ricepaper and lightly sweeped her apples with NARS Mata Hari. Her lips were glazed with my fave glossies of the moment, ARTDECO Color Gloss 45.

I as usual, did dark teals. I LOVE DARK TEALS! :mrgreen:

Sorry for the fugly face! There’re so many folks in the room am too shy to project and retake! :oops:

FOUNDATION: ARTDECO Rich Treatment Foundation in 15 (Surprise surprise! Am trying out another non-mineral foundation!)
SETTING POWDER: MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in MEDIUM PLUS
CREASE: ARTDECO 264 + 311
BROWBONE: ARTDECO 07
LINER: MAD Minerals in BLACK CHERRY (applied wet)
MASCARA: MAC Splashproof Lash in BLACKSPLASH
CHEEKS: NARS Mata Hari
LIPS: ARTDECO Color Gloss 45

I tried my best to capture my outfit but I failed:

I thought I got it with this but again, no shoes:


Yes, am packing like a duck… ;)

With a little help from Jayvee, here’s what we wore last night:

I wore a Bo Couture Manila top, my super worn out 7 Jeans dark denims, and 3″ Alberto pumps. Jayvee’s wearing this purple shirt (see photo below), mighty fineeeee Defacto Jeans (He’s by the way running a Defacto Jeans contest! Two days left to join!), and Royal Elastics sneakers.


CLIQUEBOOTH!

Oh I also did Lauren’s panda eyes! I used MAD Minerals Black Cherry (applied on her crease wet), MAC Pandamonium, and MAC Rice Paper. Mannnn she rocked this combo! Lauren! You should use this combo more often! *wink*.
