You know I can't remember the last time I wore blackish smoky eyes?
You know I've stopped wearing bold red & fuchsia lipsticks for a long time?
You know I want to binge read 'The Girl On The Train' before the movie comes out?
You know I get this strong urge to lie back on the floor at a shopping mall, yoga flap my arms and legs in & out, and shout "THIS IS THE FEELS! I FEELS! I NO CRAZY!"?
You know the top I'm wearing costs less than all the products I'm wearing on my face?
Makeup Products I Used (Pic below):
Face:
Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in #128 Warm Nude/Beige Chaud
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in #20 Sand/Sable
L'Oreal Perfect Match Crayon Concealer in #40 Natural for spots.
Inglot Mattifying Loose Powder in #32. It's a yellowish powder that disappears into your skin like magic.
MAC Pro Longwear Blush in Rosy Outlook. I've hit pan on this.
MAC Soft & Gentle Mineralize Skinfinish to highlight cheek bones. I used the Forever 21 Fan Brush, which makes me want to apply highlighter every single day, because at 329 rupees it's pure love!
Eyes:
Very basic smoky eyes using the Colorbar All Day Waterproof Eyeshadow Stick in Dream (black) & Chambor Orosa Sculpting Eyeshadow in Rose Smoke as a base, and then I used some eyeshadows from the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette on the crease and lower ash line.
Inner corner highlighted with the newly launched MAC Modern Twist Kajal Liner in Grey Tide, a platinum shade.
Falsies are Ardell (forgot the number) with a few individual lashes layered on top
Lips:
Chambor Extreme Wear Liquid Lipstick in #403
Off-shoulder vintage floral top is from Faballey. Got it under Rs.500 from Myntra.
Headband is Forever 21. Yeah, in between I thought "Hmm...maybe I should wear something on my head. Perhaps that would make me more photogenic after all the previous crappy pics." =D

You know I never quite know how to end a blog post?
You know when I hear the word "BLOG", I immediately think of some small slimy tadpole-sized water creature that looks like a bulldog?
You know this is my vacation month?
You know I finally found a cute bikini set that can actually hide all that I want to conceal?
You know I'm very very thankful for all your warm birthday wishes on my previous post?
You know I'd still blog even if I had only 10 readers?
You know I've run out of clever words to say?
