Delightful Illusions: look

Spring is the perfect time to be fun, cheerful and do anything under the sun. It is this season that the flowers start to bloom, as well as the beauty and talent people hide. DailyLook inspires fashion addicts and self-expressive stylistas to make their own signature look. As of today, they are encouraging bloggers all over the world to create looks for Spring using their Little Black Dresses. This was a bit tad challenging to me; I've never experienced Spring before since I live in a tropical country and a black dress for the said season seemed to be out way.

Beautysets - Spring Look: The Little Black Dress

I chose this quarter-sleeved black lace dress as my center piece, the SAYLOR Charlotte Crochet Lace Dress, the one featured on the collage above. I know I went daring as I matched the rockstar with a neutral knee-high leather boots, thinking this would tone down the dress. Then I imagined this getup with a leather knapsack and a peach scarf with fringes to give a playful, feminine, soft vibe. I opted for a classic black wrist watch so it would not overdo the look. Wearing hoop earrings with this outfit is a fashion risk, but then, why not? Haha! :) Lastly, I added a round sun glasses, you know, it could get a little way too sunny on a Spring and you need something to protect your eyes.

As a beauty blogger that I am, I just cannot forget to add makeup on this outfit. While I was making my Style Set, I pictured out myself wearing the outfit with a makeup look I would take it with. I would go for a neutral almost pastel soft eye look, pale peach blush and a bright berry not-so-red lipstick. To finish it off, I would go for a bright nail polish, giving a pop of color on the outfit.

Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer Collection 2015 was my inspiration. Their designs seem to speak about me; comfortable yet stylish. If I have this pieces, I would definitely wear them. I created the look not just for the sake of creating one, I made this because I imagined myself wearing it on a lazy school day. How I wish we have Spring. Haha!

So, that's it for this Spring Look. What do you think, guys? Please let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment down below. I'll to you soon. Thanks for stopping by. Have a nice day. Stay safe.

Lots of love XOXO,

Hello! How's everyone doing? It's chilly here. Again. Because of the upcoming storm next week. Anyways, I just want to post about some sort of a flashback, like a Flashback Friday. This is a look that I posted from my previous blog, Mistaken Glance. Since I don't have any beauty post this month, I thought of re-posting this look. I hope you like it and give it a try. :)

My first makeup tutorial ever. I am apologizing in advance for some flaws you will be seeing in my tutorial. I am not a professional makeup artist nor a makeup student so please bare with me. This is a simple look. I hope you'll like this. ;D For this look, I will be using the G-Lish Colour Pot in Mystique. You can use similar shades containing this pan.

Before putting any makeup, make sure to apply moisturizer. After doing so, apply your favorite foundation, conceal your flaws and pat a setting powder on your face. Sorry for the undone eyebrows. Hehe.

Put an eye shadow primer.
Apply the pale pink shade, which serves as the base color, all over the lids.
Put the pale violet shade over the pale pink shade for some sort of lavender shade.

3. Take the berry shade and gently pat it on half of the lid to the outer thirds. Then, extend it up to the crease. Use a pencil shaped makeup brush for contouring. Blend the shadow in the crease with an angled eye makeup brush. 4. Then apply the dark plumy eggplant shade and pat it on the outer thirds up to the crease. Then blend the shades with an angled eye makeup brush. 5. Use the pale pink eye shadow as an eyeliner for the water line.

6. Take the berry shade again and smudge a little under you waterline. I used a flat eyeliner brush to do thin line.

7. Use the sheer white shade to highlight the brow bones and put some at inner corners of your eyes.

8. Then apply a black eyeliner on the upper lash line. I used a powder liner so it's not vivid. You always have the options for eyeliners.

9. Finally, apply a mascara, put some blush on and lipstick. I used a sheer pinky peach blush and coral lipstick and topped it with a nude lipgloss. Here is the finished look...

Products I used for this look...

Face - The Face Shop Arsainte Eco Therapy Ice Line Super Gel, Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation in Gold, Oraganic Wear Pressed Powder in Translucent Light, Elf Face Stick, Nichido Final Powder in So Natural, Elf Studio Golden Bronzer and Elf Studio Contour and Blushing Compact

Eyes - Elf Eyelid Primer, G-Lish Colour Pot in Mystiques, Revlon Shadow/Liner in Naturally Glamorous and Clinique Doubling Effect Mascara

Please excuse my messy hair and oily face. I was in a hurry to this and it was really hot when I shot these photos. If you have any suggestion for improvement, hit the comment box.
