20080814 Wrong...

Trying to match the shirt, but turned out too greenish. I think I should use another base, or no base at all? Hmm..

Fall Makeup Trend

So far I see purple which is deep in plum and gold.

Shiseido: The look can be purchased at Sephora.



And Chanel:

And also lots of cherry, such as Mac's Cult of Cherry collection:


The deep cherry color palettes have some Goth flavor to it, which I learned to adopt since I joined the troupe. I'll pick up an eye shadow quad and some lipsticks/lipglass. And believe it or not, I'll get the Shiseido's gold eye palette - it looks so pretty on the model. Even though I've never had gold look on me but I definitely would like to give it a try. Plus, the new troupe costume color's gonna be gold... such an IN color I'd say!

So, I still like pink and purple. :) No wings though.

(More an artistic sense picture, which I love.)

Olympic day.

I used all the same colors as yesterday but different areas. I like the idea to create the new combination.

Puzzled

So.. I just simply can not have my makeup color fully saturated showed in the pix. So bizarre. It's not like I never used camera before. But I sure are impressed those teenagers having their color so vibrant showing in their pix. I think to be more accurate, my color showed about only 75% ... Arrh. Oh well, I'll figure it out.

OK, I started realizing my normal "trick" is just purple, pink, or purple and pink.. or pink and purple. (Although too bad I didn't have the chance to take pix of my black Goth look..)

Right, should try something else.
