Etude Beauty Carnaval (June 2013)

Hi girls,

last weekend beauty bloggers are invited for an event with Etude called, Etude Beauty Carnaval. Held at the atrium of Mal Taman Anggrek, it took all the center stage with most of their fluffy pink decor.

Everything looks so sweet and I want to take a bite on everything there \^0^/ from the delightful packaging to the sugary names, Etude know how to tease a girl or at least the girl inside every woman.

-*-

The venue is packed with female from pre-teens to adulthood. It is definitely irresistible. I truly wish they would make a bigger one next year outdoor, with more of these delightful pinky thingy.

Soon, an hour for the beauty bloggers started, they gave us a makeup demo with the help of a Korean Makeup Artist from Etude, the look for this season is something resembling sparkling candy. Using the CC and BB Cream from Etude for a light coverage and glowing effect, the model now has a Korean look we've seen on most Korean Drama ^__^

The look is a bit romantic and embracing a sweet innocent look. Now, it's time for the bloggers to compete against each other to create the look that inspire by the theme using all the products provided by Etude.

The main item is: The CC Cream and BB Cream!!

The definition of Etude CC Cream is Care and Correct with 8 in 1 function. It comes in two variation, Silky and Glow. Mine is in Glow. The product claim to be anti-aging, stress relief, hydrating, whitening, give the skin sun protection and tone up the skin, plus adding a smooth texture and luminosity.

Both BB Cream Cotton Fit and CC Cream contain SPF 30/PA++, the BB Cream Cotton Fit also helps in whitens the skin with an anti wrinkle look and anti-darkening. It comes in several skin tone, mine is Light Beige 02.

This is my before look, no makeup on, the skin start clean and fresh. Below is the products given as the makeup, sadly most of them are in really bad shape, used, uncleaned sponges, brushes and puffs, broken pencils, etc. It's a good think I brought my own brushes for just in case, and they really come in handy.

-*-

Within 30 minutes we have to create a look, hence sorry for not giving you step by step images as it is quite a rush, and hmm, I have to borrow some of the makeup from the surroundings too, it's like every 3 people we can find one decent product to be used together. I really hope they'll put more effort in providing the materials in the future.

-*-

Here's my after look. I'm focusing in creating a flawless dewy look with more radiance and those cotton candy kiss on the cheeks.

-*-

The lips is juicy and the eyes get enough attention without being too much.

Soon, it's time for the judges to deliberate, they gave us tips in how to use the products and do the makeup look. Here's some of it:
1. When applying CC Cream, do it little by little and avoid using the cream too much as it lightens the skin in an instant.
2. Apply BB Cream Cotton Fit afterwards without being too much as well.
3. Use a powder lightly dusted, so the 'glows' wont be covered.
4. Korean are a huge fans of straight, thick eyebrows so try giving the brows a bushy look instead of a thin curvy line.
5. During eyeshadow application, do it in one direction, example left to right and repeating the movement left to right, don't use a swiping movement like a wiper (back and forth) as it will erased and blurred the whole thing.
6. Different face needs different 'blush on' area.
