I hate Valentine's Day. Seriously, my best friend and I used to sit there and watch horror movie reruns on Valentine's day. Our ideal Valentine's date was Freddy Kruger xD
The Pook, however, insists on celebrating Valentine's day >_> I got him to compromise after last year's dinner disaster, and since this year's February 14th also happens to be Lunar/Chinese New Year, there's even more excuse to stay at home xD.
This one is for you ladies who will be dolling up. A pink based look, keeping it simple and sweet.

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and Happy Valentines Day!
oooh pretty! i love those lashes. you have such pretty eyes, nunu. :)
ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty! I especially love how you did your hair. <3 That's a great lip color btw.
ReplyDeleteYou look pretty!! I have the same Body Shop blush that you have on here. It's really nice to use, gives a soft "flush" to the cheeks, lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have wonderful V-Day/CNY!!
Ooh girl, I love this look! So pretty and flirty. *^_^*
ReplyDeleteLMAO at Freddy Kruger being your date!
awww~ love the look^^
ReplyDeletethe blush is on heavy rotation for me as well...that and this one annabelle one i got XD
hope your valentines was wonderful~
Hahaha, Freddy!! LOL I've never seen that movie yet.
ReplyDeleteWow, such a pretty look! I wish I had skills like you. I like how natural you make it look.
Hm, well I don't use the HD powder all over my face since I'd probably breathe it in while trying to swirl the brush in the product (plus I personally don't think it's all that great as an all over powder since it leaves my face too matte without some glow). I only use it under my eyes after concealer with a cosmetic wedge. It works great to set it and stop it from creasing!
The first thing that popped in my head when I saw your look was "Wow look at the perfect lashes"... hehe~ It's gorgeous with a great hint of pink-ness! :)
ReplyDeleteIf you make the recipe tonight, tell me how it went. I would like to know... hehe~
omg you're sooo pretty and love the eyelashes. You got great skin too! Haha I'm not a big romantic and never was a big valentines day celebrator as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous Valentine's Day look, you're so pretty. :)
