Lena Fujii Burlesque Inspired Look



Today's look is inspired by Lena's makeup (mainly her eyes) in her lingerie collection.Kinda fllirty+ burlesque!

Here's a few photos of the end result! :D

                这次的妆灵感来自Lena内衣系列的照片 :)  有点甜美, 调逗, 性感的眼妆~
                                                    这里先放几张成果照!

 (BEFORE)
之前

(EYES)

眼睛


(EYES+ FACE LOOK)

眼睛+脸.

P.S, If anyone is interested in the pink puffy laced dress it is available to sell! :D comes in pink, rice colour, and black! @RM 55. International buyers welcome!  EMAIL ME at togetherinparis@hotmail.my

P.S, 如果有人对那件蕾丝连身裙有兴趣的话,我有卖喔, 粉红色, 米色,还有黑色! @RM 55. 
欢迎国际买家~ 联络方式EMAIL我吧~  togetherinparis@hotmail.my


TIME USEED TO COMPLETE THE LOOK 
15 MINUTES


The first step to a good nice looking skin even after you put on foundation, 
                                 Is start off with a clean face :D remember to use a moisturizer! 




 首先,  先把脸洗干净, 然后记得用滋润霜喔!




***Contact Lenses are optional, I ALWAYS wear contact lenses especially those with iris enlargement ones cause you see, I have a small iris and I look damn sleepy without contact lenses.But I'll always recommend wearing contacts lah.***

***隐形眼镜你要带不要带都行.我自己本身一定会配戴隐形眼镜啦. 尤其是瞳孔放大的隐形眼镜. 因为我的瞳孔很小. 没戴的话眼睛会看起来累累的. 不过我每次一定推荐戴隐形眼镜的啦***
As I rarely use foundation, today I'm using Shiseido's White Lucent Makeup Base in Pink as an alternative to foundation. As you can see on the picture on the right hand side, the colour comes out kinda light pinkish!
Any base in this colour will literally lighten your skin tone instantly. I'm using this because in the picture Lena looks really fair and I'm guessing her makeup artist lightened her skin tone too for this photoshoot! you can use your normal foundation or a foundation lighter than your skin tone if you'd like!
由于我很少使用粉底液, 今天我使用的是Shiseido家的White Lucent Makeup Base (底霜), 粉红色, 来代替粉底液.    如果你看看右边的图片的话, 我底霜的颜色有点浅浅的粉红色!
基本上,任何底霜只要是带点浅粉红会让你的皮肤立刻美白掉. 我今天用这个的原因是在照片里Lena看起来很白, 我觉得她的化妆师可能有用比较浅色的粉底在她身上吧~ 你可以使用你平常用的粉底,或者比你肤色再浅一点的粉底~随意你~ :)
Remember to put on some concealer!!
(Concealer tutorial coming soon :D )


记得拍上一些遮暇膏啊!!

(遮暇膏教学即将上菜~ :D )




Prime eyelids with eyeprimer so that your eye makeup can hold for the whole day.

在眼皮至于眉骨 涂上一些眼部底膏,让我眼影在眼皮上更加持久




I'm going to be using double eyelid tape for this look today but it's optional for you if you don't wanna use it if you already have a double eyelid!

(Double eyelid tape tutorial coming soon too!! XD)

今天这妆我会在眼皮上粘双眼皮贴, 不过如果你已经有双眼皮不要粘的话也没有关系啦~ 


(双眼皮教学也是即将上菜~等嘛等嘛~XD)


**MY CREASE AREA**


**end result**
 
I'm using a colour like the picture above pat it over the whole eyelid till the crease. This is kinda like a Light Brown colour. Any light brown colour will do! :)
If you're not sure where your crease is, take a brush or your finger, close your eyes and VERY GENTLY poke your eyeball area until you find the tip of your eyeball. Basically it's like a curve or a hollow. And that's your crease.


  我是在用着个接近上面图片的颜色,  往眼皮至眼皮折痕处拍上. 我使用的颜色是个浅褐色. 任何浅褐色都能用喔! :)
如果你不清楚你的折痕在哪里, 你可以拿把眼影刷或者用手指, 盖眼睛,往眼珠的部位 轻轻的插, 眼珠的顶端,有点空洞/有点弯, 那就是你的折痕了.


Using a darker shade of brown, TRACE AND LINE the crease area with a brush.


用个比较深的褐色, 用个眼影扫描绘出眼皮折痕的轮廓.


  take a rounded eye brush and blend your dark coloured eyeshadow out like the picture above just use the brush and do circular motions from the harsh line till outwards
拿把圆形的眼影刷,  开始从深色眼影的地方往外画圈圈,如以上的图片一样~ 
 **end result**
**成果**



Using a highlight colour, I'm using M.A.C's eyeshadow in Vanilla,which is a sheer white, highlight your browbone.
your browbone area should  be around the place that I've highlighted in picture 1.


用个打亮眉骨的颜色, 我用的是M.A.C眼影, Vanilla, 是个浅浅的白, 打亮你的眉骨.
你的眉骨的地方大约会是在我在图片一筐/圈起来的地方.


Using a eyeliner pencil, line your upper eye line.go in front of your eye duct, the "<" shape, gently line it too. 



用支眼线笔,化条上眼线. 然后在眼睛前面那个"<"形状,轻轻的化过


Basically it would look like this.

基本上应该会看到像酱.




Draw a winged eye using a liquid liner or a gel liner, this time, draw the end of the wing a little bit longer,
kinda as long as the end of your eyebrow?
Here's a tutorial of how to draw a winged eye. Click here >>  How to Do a Winged eye



用只眼线液或者眼线膏化个猫眼. 这次把尾巴化长一点. 差不多眉尾有几长你就化到几长?
这里有猫眼教学. 点这里>> 猫眼教学



Using your deepest shade of brown eyeshadow, almost close to black, line your liquid line below not in a straight "--" shape, but rather a more curvy shape



用你手上所拥有的最深的褐色, 在下眼线那边扫上眼影, 别扫成"--" 一直线状,扫湾点, 或者垂点没关系.


Take a pair of false lower part of the eye eyelashes,  pick one out, and cut it into half



拿一对假睫毛, 挑其中一只出来,剪成一半.



The trick to putting on false lower eyelashes, and look natural on you, is how you glue it on your water line.
First, you must have an eyelash glue that YOU personally feel that could make your fake eyelash stay on for hours. I'm using DUO eyelash adhesive. Who wants to party half way when this cute guy walks up to you and say..."erm.. miss..half of your eyelash is on your nose tip..." awkward whey! Then, squeeze a little bit of the glue onto a cotton bud THEN only spread it on the fake eyelash. You won't want to have over execessive eyelash adhesive on your lash line.. trust me... I've been there. XD
Lastly, place the falsies on the part where you've put on the darker shade of eyeshadow just now.
NOT DIRECTLY ON THE WATER LINE, more to the lashline, the falsies actually kinda touches your skin.  



在戴下睫毛的时候, 你要容易戴,又要看到自然的话,要靠你怎样粘在下眼线上喔. 在这里教教大家几招自己时常用的.  首先,你需要有一只你自己认为粘力好, 能顶一整天的假睫毛gum,我本身是用住DUO的EYELASH ADHESIVE. 拿你的gum, 挤点在一支棉花棒上, 然后才涂在假睫毛上.
酱做你就不会涂太多在假睫毛上了. 太多gum在假睫毛上会导致假睫毛容易坏,还有眼睛也会不舒服.
最后,把假睫毛帖在你刚才用最深的褐色扫过的地方. 不是直接粘在下眼线上, 而是下眼线外面一点,有 动到皮肤的.




This is how my eye looks like after I've successfully placed the falsies.


这是成功贴了上下假睫毛后的照片




We're not finished yet!!
To make the false under eyelash look natural, take your mascara, and paint on some mascara on the front part of your eyelash as I've circled on the BEFORE picture.  Then you'll get the effect of the AFTER picture.



还没有完喔~ 要让假的下眼睫毛看起来自然的话, 拿你的mascara, 往你眼头前面的睫毛刷. 我在BEFORE图片有圈起来你要刷哪里. xD
然后,你就会有AFTER的效果了~







AND YOU'RE DONEEEE!! GO "BZZZZZ" SOME GUYS AND MAKE ME PROUDDD!! :D


酱就大工告成啦~~!! 去电些男人, 让我骄傲吧~~!! :D

Back To Basics- How to Winged/Cat Eye

**NOTE**  K I've copied this from my previous blog, the post was created like.. at least 8 months ago. I find it still kinda useful for peeps out there that wish to do a winged eye look / cat eye. Before I only typed it out in mandarin, I'm now adding on english :) 






(左起)  (FROM LEFT)

                                                        REVLON LIQUID EYELINER (BLACK)

                                                     MAYBALINE GEL EYELINER (BLACK)

                                                          MAC 208 ANGLED BROW BRUSH


**右边眼睛是化LIQUID EYELINER的~
**左边是用EYELINER GEL.


** I'm using liquid eyeliner on the right eye
**I'm using eyeliner gel on the left eye

对初学者来说,买这种LIQUID EYELINER 硬头, 会画的比较顺手.因为我自己刚学的时候软头硬头都买过,才发现硬头比较好化. (当然,如果你觉得软头好化的话我也没意见哦)

For beginners, I personally recommend getting a liquid eyeliner with a harder tip, because it would be much more easier to draw/ flick out the winged eye/cars eye. When I first started using makeup, I've tried both and find that harder tip liquid eyeliner are easier to work with. BUT, if you feel that soft tips are better, you could use it too. it's all about personal preference. 

我是从中间化起.一次过化到尾. 化完后,再从眼头化去中间.不是从眼头画起.
因为我觉得如果你从中间化起得话会比较容易.  ,如果你还不是个会化眼线的人,你一笔到尾,还要化出眼尾翘上的感觉的话, 要化到美美是非常难的~不信你试试看~哈哈~

While drawing the eyeliner, I'm starting to line my eyes from the middle till the end. after that, I go back to the front of the eye, and only start drawing it from the front to the middle. because I think that it's easier to draw an eyeliner when your starting point is from the middle. if you do not know how to draw a basic eyeliner yet, you start from the front of the eye and draw straight till the end and "wing" your eye, it's not impossible, but it's hard to make it right at first try. 

这是1分钟后化完从中间到眼尾,再从眼头到中间的普通眼线. (根本看不出有化=.=)


I've just did a basic eyeliner in a minute. can't tell eh? XD


我从中间到眼尾从薄~慢慢化厚了哟~

眼尾那边要化得比较厚喔,酱才能化出WINGED EYE的感觉. 慢慢加厚,不用紧~~

The trick IS, from the middle of the eye till the end of the eye, try to thicken the line, especially the end of the eye, only then you can "wing"it. 
thicken the eyeliner slowly, don't rush :)


这是刚翘出来的. 我觉得还很细.

my first "wing" 


如果你还是不明白, 请你一定要参考这个VIDEO~
因为我觉得这个女孩解释得很不错,很清楚!

If you don't get what I mean, please take a look at the video above, 
because I think the lady in the video explains it very well. 

因为刚才觉得很细~ 我就把眼线加厚还有加长了~ *我还是用慢慢点,慢慢化的方式化哦*

**慢慢点的方式等下在文章下面有教~所以努力点看完吧~XD**

I feel that the previous winged eye was kinda normal, so I added thickness and length to the eyeliner by using *dot by dot technique* 


**I'll be typing it at the end of this post so READDDD!!XD**

这就是用REVLON LIQUID EYELINER 化出来的WINGED EYE哦.


And this is a cat's eye created by using Revlon Liquid Eyeliner.


现在就是用MAYBALINE GEL EYELINER化出来的WINGED EYE了

如何化出来~我还是要叫你参考那个女孩子的教学~ 因为她真的教完了. (=A=)


Now I'm using Maybeline Gel Eyeliner to create a winged/ cat's eye. 

How to do it? Please refer to the youtube link that I have posted above because SHE IS REALLY GOOD! 


She literally taught it all!



这是成品.

The end result. 


TIPS AND TRICKS   小贴士

LIQUID EYELINER的好处是一化下去就干了. 眨眼也不会弄到眼皮,可是你一时失手化歪的话,不是残?
这里有3种方法给你补救.



The best thing about Liquid Eyeliners are, it drys almost in like SECONDS! and it can last all day! 
But what if you accidentally screwed up while you're halfway there? here are 3 ways to save your day.



1)直接整个眼睛卸掉再化过. (可是,如果当天你没有化EYESHADOW还不用紧,不过如果那天化了个美美的SMOKEY EYE,就因为化错,要整个卸掉不是很累又花时间?)

1) Remove your eye makeup and RE-DO it all again! (This is recommended if you only have eyeliner on. if you already have eyeshadow on and stuff like that, use tip No. 2)

2)拿棉花棒沾些比较快干的MAKEUP REMOVER (本身推荐MAYBALINE/LOREAL 的蓝白EYE&LIP REMOVER. 如果你有类似那种REMOVER的话也可以用.) 然后轻搽你化错的那个部分, 等干了后再补化回去.


2) Take a cotton bud and pat some water+oil base makeup remover that would dry fast ( I personally use Maybeline/ Loreal blue white eye& lip remover. If you have something like that you could use it too) then gently wipe away on the place that you screwed up on, after it dries, you can wing it again :D

3) 用LIQUID EYELINER化的时候,细心些, 用慢慢点的方式化, 不是一笔直接下喔哦, 是一点,一点, 一DOT一DOT的方式画.
是酱的, 如果你觉得眼线太细,你还可以慢慢加, 慢慢来,没有关系. 如果你直接一次过化到厚厚, 可是又没有你要的翘, 不是要重来?
3) When using liquid eyeliner, to create a nice cat's eye,take your time and do it slowly. Not draw your cats eye in one go (Unless you're already very good in makeup ;) ),  my **dot by dot** technique is, if you feel that your eyeliner looks too thin, add it on little by little, dot by dot, stroke by stroke.  
If you draw it too think in one go, but the wing doesn't look like a wing, you'll have to do it all again and it's frustrating = =


我觉得大部化不出WINGED EYE的感觉的MM, 问题应该出在不熟练于化出那个"翘".

这里有2种方法~ 我都用过的,都觉得不错.

第一个<我最常用的> -- 去看那个VIDEO!!! = =" 因为那个女孩子有教.我懒惰打出来~XD


I think the reason behind the problem behind creating a winged / cats eye is because you're not familier on how to "wing" the end of your eye out yet. Here are 2 tricks that I've used and felt useful. First tip that I use usually, GO WATCH THE VIDEO to know how! ;P  Because the girl in the video teached and I'm lazy to type it out. XD


第二个

那片透明的TAPE (粘纸~)

往你要翘起来的地方粘着~

然后再看你的"翘"到底要翘到几高

最后慢慢~把TAPE撕下来~

你就有个直直翘翘的眼线了~

(我知道这个方法很难以置信 = =" 可是真的有用XD)


Take a piece of translucent tape, and tape it on where you want your winged eye winged. 
and adjust till you think that the "wing" outwards is alright enough for you, 
draw on your eyeliner and follow the out line of the tape....
after you're done, gently tear off the tape, 
and you have a cats eye! :D

(it's a bit unbelievable BUT IT DOES WORK! XD)
