Orange Spring/Summer Refreshing Look

其實要用心寫一個blog真係唔容易
每個blog entry都可能要花幾個鐘時間去整理
加上由尋日開始有好多人反映I should make the blog bilingual (中文+英文)
所以真係唔俾心機and耐性係唔得ga!
不過,我都係好開心好樂意去做ge :D

It's never easy to manage a blog well!
and obviously it takes so much time, sometimes it can take like several hours just for writing a single blog entry. But...you know :p no matter what I am still extremely willing to devote my time in doing this exciting job.

 今天介紹的是2013 Spring Refreshing Look
係2013 Spring Fashion Runway 真係見到好好橙色系嘅妝容
望落去models們嘅臉上有種好淡好清新嘅感覺
然後我就想試一試這種色調的妝啦 <3
各位美女們不妨試多少少不同嘅色系
最好就係唔好每日都大地色系又或者係煙燻妝

只要化得適當自然,好多color其實都係好易wear到 :)



Today I am going to introduce a refreshing look for this spring and summer.
Just by reviewing and browsing so many runway fashion runway makeup from the 2013 S/S collection, you may have already noticed the color ORANGE was a 'must' for the makeup trend in this spring and summer.
With the radiance blending with the soft-toned orange, it gives a brightening look on your face and a refreshing image.
It's way better than just wearing smoky eyes every day!
Come on! It's summertime!

Avène -Thermal Spring Water (@L'afayette)

My all-time favorite

令你妝容更貼服持久
還有它是防敏感的
It hydrates and clams your skin 
before starting your makeup.  And it definitely let your makeup stay longer!



 The Face Shop 冰花精華 (@L'afayette)
一d都唔油,擦上去好水潤,可以令你皮膚變光,係化glowing skin絕對要有嘅精華 :)
而且價值超級便宜,呢支可能已經係我用嘅第10支

This Korean serum is used to brighten your skin to achieve a glowing look.
And most importantly, it's totally inexpensive!
Probably the one I am using today is my 10th bottle, I can't remember exactly :p

It's a no-oil formulated serum

搽上面後的光澤感
My skin was instantly brightened

 Etude House 嘅BB Cream相信有好多人都用過,
但係呢款coverage太強,會令底妝變得好厚
所以我mix左比較水潤嘅 Dr.G Protection Cream
效果會好好多
These are the other two Korean Products -- Etude House BB cream & Dr.G Multi Protection Cream
Because of their great coverage,
they combine to create a flawless skin even if you give up using any other foundation.
And with it's excellent UVA/UVB protection, it prevents your skin from weathering.

 Blending...
 

 搽BB cream最好嘅方法其實只有一種
要令底妝更貼薄就只有不停拍打+按壓
利好手掌溫度將BB Cream溶開
千其唔好懶而大肆將BB cream推開!

The best way to apply BB Cream onto your skin: 
Use your finger tips and plams to pat and press the Cream onto your face until it melts thoroughly into your skin
Do not blend it over your face or your face will give an unnatural look.
平日我會在上妝前半小時貼上雙眼皮膠,
到眼妝部分時再撕下
這樣雙眼皮便會自然加深

 化妝途中小莉又突然衝到屋內...
an unexpected visitor who intruded into my house

 先再手背上試了兩種不同的橙色
然後決定用右邊那個比較鮮艷的橙色
Trying different colors on the back of your hands is an important step for testing out the best color for your look 
Finally I chose the more vivid orange on the right over the left one :)

這次在化底色時我是沒用任何化妝掃
因為用手指會令橙色大範圍地散開,不會有一堆橙色集中在眼上很不自然,
這是我個人化些比較難wear的顏色的小秘訣哦 :p
不要忘掉下眼簾,印上很小很小的橙色就好了

my little advice: using your finger tips for applying any color if the color is hard to handle,
especially for most of the Asians :)
Just randomly spread the color all over you upper eye areas.

 Using Naked Eyeshadow Palette again, I chose the purple-toned color -- Hustle in order to give some definition to the eyes or my eyes can look drowsy and pale.

 將暗紫色""到上眼簾,以向前向後的手法推開,不要令顏色太過集中!


 塗上一層"好像幾乎沒塗"的mascara
因為又長又濃密的眼睫毛是會破壞今次妝容refreshing的特點

Apply a very thin layer of mascara is far more than enough:p
Don't screw your refreshing look by creating some heavy, long and curly lashes!


Close-up

 大家應該知道面頰下有一個微凹的位置吧
在那邊向上方擦上陰影粉
淡淡的暗啡橙色是最好不過了

Contour your face by applying bronzer under your cheekbones.
I strongly recommend using a soft contour color like the orange-brown.


 finished coutouring
接著就用較粉色系的胭脂
這個是早前於Stylenanda購入的胭脂掃,很方便,可以隨身攜帶
 Using a pinky color for brushing 
This is a carrying brush I got from Stylenanda.

 把胭脂以打圓圈的方法掃在面頰上
打圓圈的 手法會令你面部變得飽和一些
跟這次色調的妝容很配合

Apply the brushing directly on you cheeks in a circular movement.
It enriches your whole look without over-contouring your bone structures.

 Close-Up

唇色就唔好再用橙色系了
用一些牛奶粉色會令增添一些血色
中和翻你上半塊面嘅全橙色

This time I chose a milky super pink lip gloss 
By applying this pink color it balances my makeup against the whole orange look

 See? Pinky lips can match your orange eye shadow in an unexpected way :D

 把頭髮放下..
Putting down m hair..
我相信呢個夏天以呢個Refreshing Look示人會遠比化 Smoky Eyes 嘅女仔更吸引 xD
你地認為呢? :p  S

 The Final Look! Hope you guys enjoy this tutorial <3


 hard-working Becca! haha naughty me!
See you!
