SHOEAHOLIC UK.




gonna leave the UK and go back to Hong Kong (yay!)  in 10 days and start packing my stuff.
as i remember, i think i've initially brought under 10 pairs of shoes over.
and then my mum sent me a few more pairs, and i bought the rest of them here in the UK. 
still got some more flats and heels at home in Hong Kong and i cant wait to get back to view my entire collection. LOL.
well compare to this, i ain't no shoeaholic. but i hope i can own that ultimately. haha.
i guess everyone would have something they can never have enough of.
in my case, they are shoes. (:

KILLER LEGS.

SUN-KISSED FACE.



the perfect combo for the glowing sun-kissed look:

1. The Body Shop Honey Bronze Bronzing Gel For Face
2. E.L.F. Kabuki Face Brush
- This face bronzing gel is my current favourite. It's pigmented but it is really easy to blend well into the skin. I apply the bronzing gel on cheeks and blend upwards to the temples where the sun would naturally hit the face. Then I use the kabuki brush for further blending to make it more natural.

3. Sleek Blush in Scandalous
4. E.L.F. Blush Brush
- This bright red blush is super pigmented and it does look scary. But if you just apply with a light hand, it gives the most perfect and natural flushing finish. Use the blush brush to apply the red blush on the cheeks and across the bridge of the nose to create a 'sun-burn' effect. This blush brush is one of the best things I got from E.L.F. Its size is perfect for me to locate my cheekbone and the highest point across my nose. 

5. Accessorize Baked Bronzer in Shade 1 Golden Sand
6. E.L.F. Angled Foundation Brush
- Though it's called a 'bronzer' but it actually works as a highlighter, which is very similar to M.A.C's Mineralize Skin Finish. And even the brush is named as a 'foundation' brush, it's actually too small to apply foundation. Its size is perfect to reach areas where needed to be highlighted, such as the highest point of the cheek, the brow bone just under the peak of the brow, and the bridge of the nose. I use this brush to apply the 'bronzer' to highlight these areas to create a healthy dewy glow.
