Indonesian Beauty Blogger March 2013 Make Up Challenge

Hello lovelies,

Indonesian Beauty Blogger March 2013 is officially started today ^__^

Created a look like a dazzling Marilyn and win prizes from The Balm, a cosmetic brand from San Fransisco which recently landed in Indonesia.

-*-

Some of the products used in this tutorial are courtesy of The Balm and will help me creating a look that hopefully as mesmerizing as Ms. Monroe herself.

-*-

Here are the three items, Balms Away, the eye makeup remover, Shady lady, an eye shadow with a whole lotta attitude, and Mary Lou Manizer, a highlighter / luminizer that want to get all the attention she can get.

I'll share Balms Away review on a next post and two makeups here ^__^

-*-

It's gonna be an exciting next post ^__--

Let's start the step to step guide of me trying to create a glimpse of Marilyn's iconic look.

Start with a bare face.

-*-





Boi-ing, an industrial strength concealer from Benefit to cover large pores, under eye, fine lines and other imperfection.

-*-

Shiseido Lifting Foundation shade I 00, by fingers, dot a few spots on 5 parts and blend away. Covering all the uneven skin tone and creating a base for the skin. Wait for a good 5 minutes before the next step, so the foundation have time to sets in.

-*-

Followed by a compact powder by Estee Lauder.

-*-





I use a foundation brush for CyberWhite EX Extra Brightening Powder Makeup. Make sure the skin is completely dry and the foundation has set before this powder or it will make some blotchy effect.

-*-

Then a Loose Powder from Teint Miracle series from Lancome, a very beautiful light powder that gives the skin a luminous effect with a mild glistening aura.

-*-

On some part Touche Eclat from Yves Saint Laurent is added, then blend with fingers.

-*-

Anna Sui Eyebrow Color Compact is used for my brow in shade 03. Simple, so easy to use and looks natural.

Don't forget to tidy up the brows first.

-*-

I use a base for eyeshadow using Kate eye shadow in PU-1 inspired by this look from Marilyn,

-*-





She looks stunningly beautiful.

-*-





Maybelline Hyper Sharp Liner for that cat eye look or at least a winged, but I need something more, the lashes.

-*-

D'Eyeko is used, and just happen to be the only lashes I have that able to create a very sexy cat eyed lashes.

Tips of using D'Eyeko that I get from Lizzie, use from the outer side to the inner, and it works!

-*-





A subtle touch of a Cheeky Glow, for that light blushing touch from Maybelline.

-*-





I need a shadow that really perk up the eyes and increase the effect of the sexy lashes, Shady Lady is here.

-*-





Comes in 10 gorgeous shades that's bold and brave.

-*-




There's some tiny sparkles, I see they have some shades that's not available in other cosmetic brands and unique too.
The selling price is Rp.150.000.

-*-

Same goes with Mary Lou Manizer, which I think a must added collection to any beauty pouch. Rp.280.000.





I love this highlighter as it draw attention right through it and exactly where you want the attention to be. Easily blend and watch out, you may in for a spotlight \^0^/

-*-




Then, it's the lips, I tried making them thin but decided to make it bold and so red and seductive,
Maybelline Red Porcelain, I love this lipstick, like a red leather just landed and rule.

-*-

No Marilyn look would be complete without that famous black dot, right below her left cheek.

-*-

Using the Hyper Sharp Liner again and voila!

I want to go all out with a blonde wig, but try imagining Marilyn in a brunette.

-*-

Using my Philips are a curler, a wave that says, hello, I'm here.

-*-

Get a help from L'Oreal Professionnel Bounce Whip.

-*-

Divide the hair section by section and tongs on! Change my clothes into something with vintage tag label, and I'm ready!

-*-

How do I look?
