pictorial: natural glam (with aegyo-sal)

hello! this is going to be my first pictorial so please excuse me if i make any mistakes! (´∩ω∩｀) i’m going to show you my favorite eyelook lately which is perfect for everyday makeup because it’s glamorous but at the same time it’s subtle ~ (also, please excuse my bad, dry skin... the weather is constantly changing here and it’s so bad for my skin...)

the warmth of my pictures change throughout the pictorial because i do my makeup at my window!

what i use:

etude house drawing eye brow pencil

essence lash & brow gel mascara

becca under eye brightening corrector

maybelline instant age rewind eraser

essence all about matt! fixing compact powder

catrice nude illusion loose powder in ‘transparent matt’

too faced shadow insurance

too faced sweet peach palette

holika holika gudetama eyeshadow palette in ‘tiramisu’ (limited edition)

183 days gem pop eye shadow in 040 ‘glamourized’

essence i♥extreme crazy volume brown mascara

first, i begin with creating a base. i start by drawing on my eyebrows. for this i use the etude house drawing eye brow pencil and fill my brows in. then, i set my brow hairs in place by using the essence lash & brow gel mascara. when i’m done i fix mistakes with concealer if i need to. afterwards i apply my too faced shadow insurance on my eyelid and gently pat the becca under eye brightening corrector on my under eyes.

when both the primer and the corrector dried down i set the primer with a bit of the essence all about matt! fixing compact powder. on my under eyes i now apply the maybelline instant age rewind eraser and bake with catrice’s nude illusion loose powder in ‘transparent matt’. 

now i’m finally ready to apply the eyeshadow! these are the products i will use:

sadly, the gudetama palette was limited edition and isn’t available anymore. there’s only a permament version of the second gudetama palette which has more reddish hues. so, if you’re interested in that you can get it here. it’s the red velvet one!

the 183 days eye shadow is only available in germany and austria, i think... but there are plenty of similar products on yesstyle for example! 183 days is a new brand in dm (a drugstore in germany and austria) and it makes products that are inspired by trends all over the world so i’m pretty sure this product is inspired by korean liquid glitter eyeshadows!

back to the tutorial! ( ﾉ^ω^)ﾉﾟ i begin by applying the lightest shade in the holika holika gudetama eyeshadow palette all over my lid. if i had a base on (foundation etc) i would also directly apply it under my bottom lash line because i would have already brushed away the baking powder.

then, i take the shimmery shade and pat it on my outer and inner corners. afterwards i use what’s left on the brush to connect the shadow in the crease. 

little hint: not using more product will prevent a harsh line in your crease and overall leaves you with a soft, blended shadow.

next, i use the dark brown matte shadow (unfortunately, the cute gudetama face is almost already gone... ;;) to deepen my outer corner and blend it outwards like a triangle if that makes sense... i pat what’s left on the brush on my inner corners. then i connect the shadow in the crease the same way i did it with the shimmer shade before.

i now take the brush i used to apply the lightest shade in the beginning with to blend everything together.

when everything looks nicely blended i apply the glitter shade all over the lid with my finger. first, i dab it on so i have glitter everywhere on my lid. then, i lightly rub the glitter on. using the finger to apply shimmers/glitter makes it look way prettier and more pigmented.

i now use the dark brown matte shade again to create the illusion of an eyeliner. i take an angle liner brush and pat the shadow right above my lash line and wing it out at the outer corner. then, i take my first brush again to blend out and soften the wing a bit.

to finish the look on my lid i apply some of the 183 days gem pop eye shadow in 040 ‘glamourized’ on a flat brush. the liquid shadow is white but has a slightly warm undertone to it which fits perfectly to this eyelook. actually, it has a doe foot applicator but if i use that one i apply way too much. that’s why i use a different brush. i just want a soft highlight in the middle of my lid that still shows the color underneath it.

now, i highlight my inner corner and beneath my brow by mixing white peach and nectar from the too faced sweet peach palette. as you can see i just apply it with my pinkie. when i’m done with that i finally brush away the baking powder. but be careful! if you don’t brush softly/pat the powder away you might mess up your concealer.

after removing the baking powder i work on my undereyes. first, i apply the lightest shade under my bottom lash line. then, i apply the shimmer shadow on the outer corner. (i hate doing my bottom lash line because i always get stuff in my eyes then... i’m an idiot (´;ω;｀) )

to create the illusion of puffy eyes i mix the shades charmed, i’m sure and puree from the sweet peach palette to create the perfect hue for my skintone. with a small brush i apply it under my eyes.

little hint: when you half-close your eyes you can easily see where you have to put the shadow!

afterwards i apply the glitter shade with my finger between my bottom lash line and the shadow i just applied.

to highlight even more i use the 183 days glitter eye shadow again and apply it on top of the glitter shadow of the gudetama palette. this time i apply it on the whole part, not just the middle. then, i finish the whole look by applying the essence i♥extreme crazy volume brown mascara to my top lashes. if you want to you can also apply it to the bottom lashes and glue on some lashes. i personally adore the look like this because it’s not too much. it’s perfect for school, work, going out... whatever you’re about to do!

unfortunately, the lighting makes it look like the eyeshadow on my undereyes is very dark. in other lighting it looks like aegyo-sal, i promise! (٭°̧̧̧꒳°̧̧̧٭)

that’s it. i hope you like the pictorial and it inspired you for your next look. thank you for reading! goodbye ~ ଘ(੭ˊ꒳ˋ)੭✧

what can you expect from my blog in the future?

makeup reviews

makeup pictorials

project pan (maybe)

book reviews

hauls in general

art (maybe)

there’s no specific order to this. also, i don’t have set an upload time. i’m struggling with real life just as everyone else and keeping up a blog will be a challenge for me. i often just cancel things because i quickly get demotivated... i hope it won’t happen this time since a friend motivated me to create this blog!

btw! a few things i don’t accept on here... these are homophobia, racism, sexism and toxicity in general. please keep those off my blog as i don’t support these things at all.

hi! welcome! (even tho i don’t expect anyone to ever read this, haha...) i’m shinju and this is going to be something like a ‘get to know me’-post... ? well, i’m living in this beautiful country called germany (sarcasm) so please bear with me if i make any mistakes! (´;ω;｀)

so, i’m 18 y/o (soon turning 19). i’m pretty much a crybaby. i cry and whine all the time. (ﾉ∀＼*) also, i’m pretty introverted so i may come off as shy at first. don’t worry, i don’t hate you. i’m just not used to getting to know people and talking to them... i’m also pretty clumsy because i dream all the time. but i don’t think that’s bad since i’m a creative person ~

as you may already read i like books, video games and makeup. actually, there are a lot more things i like but i didn’t want to have a really long text in my sidebar, lol. besides those things, i also enjoy drawing, watching cartoons and reading comics. yes, anime and manga are also right up my alley!

hm, i think i should mention a few things i dislike now... ? i hate clowns. they make me so uncomfortable. but insects are even worse! just a few weeks ago i had a really bad panic attack because a wasp was following me for a few seconds... also, i really dislike heat. that’s why autumn is my favorite season. the summers are getting hotter every year where i live and i’m suffering... another thing i don’t like are syringes! ahh, keep those things away from me! ヾ( ๑´д`๑)ﾂ

okay, i think that’s enough for now... thank you for reading through all this! have a nice day ~ ଘ(੭ˊ꒳ˋ)੭✧
