M.A.C : Brow Set - Boy Girl & Eye Brows Pencil - Brunette

Hello lovelies!
So ever since I got the Brow Bar To Go Palette, I have been eyeing out for more brow products
and I noticed that m.a.c is gonna have a new eye brow collection coming out soon(already available online) and I am patiently waiting for them to show up at the counters,
which I've been told it will be in March, The Stylish Brow Collection
I really want to try out their new Fluideline brow gelcreme
it looks like its gonna be a great product, 
like a kinda cheaper alternative to makeup forever's aqua brow
so exciting and it will be worth the waiting(can't get them online cause they are all sold out already, booo).

But for now, I thought I would go ahead and try their other stuff, which is their brow set and pencil, and I am very impressed with this stuff, love it love it. 
I would use this combo when I am not in a hurry and have more time to do this. 

m.a.c says : It's Slick ! Stokes on. Adds shine, style, grooming, overall wow ! to the brows. 
A brush-on gel that grooms and slicks brows into shape without flaking or stiffening the brows. Available in several tinted shaedes or clear,
 it can be used on its own, or for a nice natural look stroke over
 Eye Brows(the brunette pencil). May also be used on lashes, sideburns, and chops-any facial hair.(uww, pretty cool that one huh, sideburns and chops, hahaha)

m.a.c says : A self-propelling, self-sharpening, brow defining. Confident;y adds what you need: shape, color, density in one streamlined tool. 
Like a pen, creates its own just-right point. Provides definition, shape,
 deepens fills in color. Creates striking arches. Easy to tote around. No sharpener needed.

My old beloved NYX light brown eye pencil, finally all gone :(

The pen itself is very thin and slim, very easy to control, has a long cap, 
and its twisty at the top, it also clicks when you twist it, 
so it kinda stops you from twisting too much product out and breaking it by accident. 

I looove this pencil, it does exactly what I want, I can make my brows look very nice and sharp and polished looking with just a few strikes,
creating a sharp arch ,or  fill in the just the sparse areas 
of my brows and give it a more natural soft finish. Just like what it claims to do.

The color is a very nice light grey brown, it glides out very smoothly not like some other eye brow pencils you find that needs hard on drawing to actually get some little color pay off, 
and this one its not like its gonna be too creamy intense that it will 
gel your hairs together, sticking it down, but just enough for a brow pencil.

I really like how these two colors go together for my brows, Boy Girl is a very pretty golden light brown color, they describe it with fawn-blonde which I think do really suit it too, it is exactly like what you see in the swatch picture above, and when I applied this over my brunette pencil to set it, it gave me a very nice blonde tint on my brows to make it a little bit more lighter, but not in a way that it made my brows look super blonde like hello I bleached it to this color kinda effect.
But you can always just apply the brow set by itself to make it look like the exact color it is, it all depends how you work it ! And it has a great staying power too, keeps my hairs in place all day, doesn't budge at all even when I get oily(yes, I have oily skin and can turn into a grease ball if I don't blot through out the day, haha). Its not waterproof though, it will slide water away if its just a tiny bit, but if its pouring rain, it will be gone, but I like that, makes it very easy for me to take it off at the end of the day, not like some others where you will have to rub it off with oil based makeup remover.

This is how my eye brows look like now when I use the two together

So hope you enjoyed reading this post !

Dramatic Blue Eyes Makeup Tutorial

Hello lovelies !
I have another makeup tutorial to share with you today using one of my favorite 
blue eyeshadow of all time ! Which is (drum roll !)....
Sugarpill's Royal Sugar Loose eyeshadow ! It is such a gorgoues royal blue color 
with teel sparkles in it. I can look at that color all day O.O *bling bling bling*

You can wear this look to a party, night out, even to school if your brave enough to do so,
haha, have fun with it, work it the way you like it ! :D

Another thing I wanna mention is, this is only my second video so I am still trying
my best to find the best lighting that suits the room that I film in, it is kinda
hard when your in a small little room in your apartment not having a lot of natural light shining in,
so this time I got myself a small little LED light camera accessory, I think it works alright
but a little bit blue in my opinion, so I'll still have to work with that.
Improve! Improve! Improve ! :>
