2010 Oscars: Worst Makeup

March 10th, 2010

And here is the less shiny part of the Oscars 2010! As I mentioned in my previous post, this years looks weren’t so glamorous when it comes to makeup, mostly the ladies had somehow ordinary looks, nothing special. Simply everyday looks. So, lets see the “winner” here. :D

Sarah Jessica Parker

I’m not really what happened here, but she looks SO old. Somehow her makeup, instead of “hiding” some things on her face, actually shows them very well. I’m not sure if she went for that look, but that’s how it looks to me. :/

Demi Moore

Hmm, she definitely had some better looks and this one isn’t *so* bad, but something more glamorous would look so much better on her. This is simply too ordinare for her. At least I think so. She looks better with bold makeup. But still, the hair looks just fine. :)

2010 Oscars: Best Makeup

March 10th, 2010

I’ve been SO busy these days that I simply didn’t have time to write posts about the Oscars so I’m doing it now. I chose few of my favorite looks, and few of those that aren’t my favorite ones so take a look at them and tell me what you think about them.

I have to admit that this years Oscars weren’t so glamorous when it comes to make. Just few of them had THE Oscars look and here they are. :)

Charlize Theron

There’s only one right word for her – amazing! I do like her a lot, but yes, she’s always so perfect and everything is just where it should be – the perfect hair, perfect look, perfect dress!

Sandra Bullock

For years she often looked like she completely missed the whole point of glamorous happenings but 2010 is definitely her year! The makeup, the dress – simply perfect! I’m so glad someone finally decided to put some color on her cause it really suits her and her face looks so much brighter!

Beauty review: Coastal Scents Synthetic Wide Buffer Brush

March 8th, 2010

Though I already made few post about the brushes I use and about some of Coastal Scents brushes, I often get e-mails where my readers ask me for more information about them so I decided to write reviews on each of the brushes I’m using with more detailed information. For my 1st review, I decided to write about my  Synthetic Wide Buffer Brush which is among my TOP 3 brushes when it comes to quality and how much I use it.

Synthetic Wide Buffer Brush is a brush which I’m using for applying my loose and pressed powder. It is definitely THE brush when it comes to that purpose (at least among the ones I’ve tried).  The thing about this brush is that it is smaller, flat and really dense. 100% synthetic. It is unbelievably soft and gentle when used! It’s a bit bigger than the kabuki brush (which I completely stopped using when I got this one) but easier to handle and to use.  I simply pat all over my face when applying loose or pressed powder which is less irritating for my skin than making many rounded moves. In the end, I simply blend out if there is any excess powder left.  It actually much nicer applying powder with this brush, than with kabuki brush – it looks nicer.

I’ve been using it for about 6 months now and I’ve washed it so many times and this brush doesn’t shred at all (I think I’ve lost only 2 or 3 hairs by now). Brush diameter is a bit larger after 6 months, but nothing notably.

You can get it at the Coastal Scents web site – here and its price is $14.95. With shipping costs it’s around $20.00 which maybe seems much, but trust me, for this brush it isn’t too much.   You can see more photos in the rest of my post with exact measurements of the brush.

Mostly neutral look

March 6th, 2010

Here’s just a quick of my yesterdays look. This is how I mostly look these days cause I’m too lazy to apply decent eyeshadow. :D

I’m simply wearing neutral colors on my eye lids and then I apply a petrol or green or any other color on my lower eye lid simply too brighten up a bit my look. Maybe sounds boring, but it is a interesting though very simple look. And also – it takes just a few minutes to get ready!

Here’s what I used:

  • 120 eyeshadow palette (semi-matte beige, matte light brown)
  • Sephora flashy eyeliner in green
  • Maybelline Colossal Volum’Express Mascara
