Inspired: Korean Drama

Some of you may or may not, most likely may, know that I am absolutely obsessed with Korean dramas. Aside from the romantic almost fairy-tale like story lines, I love the looks used on the female actresses. For the majority of the time the looks are very flattering and natural looking, which is exactly why I love them so much. This particular look was inspired by the second season of the drama Dream High and it's of the character portrayed by Park Jiyeon otherwise known as Rian/Lian.

Before I move on, you can also check out another fellow blogger's version of this look UrHappyBunnie...she also loves Korean Dramas so why not just mosey on over to her page :)

Back to Rian haha her makeup, for me at least, is very appropriate for everyday wear. Though her eyeliner may seem a little intense, it really isn't. Also, notice that she doesn't wear any blush and her lips are very natural looking...they kind of looked stained I can't quite put my finger on it. Regardless, I really like her look and style in the drama even though I kind of hate her character :D






And here's my take on it....

Preview: Makeup Collection & Storage

Ok it's official...I kind of suck at keeping up with my blog, but I'm trying! :)

Since my blog is in need of a bit of love I thought of doing a small preview of my makeup collection & storage since those are one my favorite types of YouTube videos to watch.

Keep reading if you wanna see the rest! :)

Tiny Little Update!

Hello everybody! It's been awhile hasn't it?? Well, maybe not....

Anyway, I just wanted to give a little update. I am still in the works of getting a new camera for that I'm sorry for the lack of posts also I am a third year biology major in college soooo you can imagine how much work I've been getting even though it's just the third week of school. 

Okay now....I decided that I am going to start a Project 20 Pan because I feel like I might have collected too much makeup and haven't gotten my full use out of things, but I am excluding limited edition products because well...y'know. I did make some last minute purchases before I embarked on my long journey.

I got the Hard Candy Kal-eye-descope Baked Eyeshadow Duo in High Maintenance, which is sooo great for the $6 I paid at Walmart. The eyeshadows are pigmented and perfect for everyday wear. I'm soo tempted to go and buy more, but I can't!


One Swipe Swatch



And the most exciting thing I purchased? The Naked2. Originally, I wasn't tempted to buy it, but then seeing the swatches and my favorite gurus using it...I caved. I got this bad boy for about $38 because I had a return and a discount. P.s. I haven't had the chance to use it (Note: I have this really weird thing where I can't touch brand new products right away because they're just so pretty when they're new hahahaha I'm sick).



Oh and on a side note. My schedule has gotten even more packed because....well....I'm a Korean drama FANATIC! I have 2 new dramas that I've been following: Dream High 2 and Shut Up Flower Boy Band. The first season of Dream High remains as my all-time-favorite drama. It was inspiring, tear jerking, gut busting, you name it! I'm not one to become emotionally attached to....omg the theme song just came up on my iTunes...anyway I don't get emotionally attached to tv shows, but Korean dramas man, they have a way to just suck you in. I was disappointed when I heard there was going to be a brand new cast for the second season, but I made my peace with it.

Original Dream High
Perhaps there will be some inspired looks from this drama? Koreans have this very flattering way of using makeup to make it look like they have absolutely no makeup on....so we'll see :)

Dream High 2

I can't say I'm as excited for Shut Up Flower Boy Band as I am for Dream High 2, but with the first 2 episodes I'm quite intrigued. I can see myself getting emotionally attached to this hahaha.
