smokey eyes...

Last night Ina and I were on a mission... to learn how to buat sultry smokey eyes.

I was doing my kira2 on my renovation costs when Ina came into the room declaring that she had found a video on youtube... step by step on how to put on eye makeup. I've always wanted to have that sexy mysterious look, but each time tak berjaya.

We were excited... watched about 8 videos before finally deciding to buat practical training. Earlier that night we were in Bangsar Village... and sambil tengah beli Nescafe kat Village Grocer, we passed by the Revlon counter. That's when Ina brought up the suggestion... thought about buying the palette but decided otherwise since manalah selalu nak guna eye shadow colour gelap2 ni kan... Bukannya I selalu keluar berdinner or clubbing pun. Nanti benda tu terperuk je atas meja.

Tapi bila dah jumpa the video, we were both excited to try out. So armed with whatever dark/grey colour eye shadow that we have, the experiment commenced. First attempt... koyak. Bukannya jadi smokey... more like panda, haha. Try tak jadi, cuci dgn eye makeup remover, then try again. Finally boley lah... but that took about 10 mins... itu baru untuk satu belah mata!

We continued playing around... try other colours pulak, try lipstick... macam2. Decided that we need to invest in other eye shadow brushes... one of those smudging brushes and another yg angled type. Share lah... since they're quite mahal. Also to share to buy a good pencil sharpener. Tak boleh lah guna sharpener mcm budak2 sekolah tu. Habis rosak my eye pencil tu pulak...

That was really fun :) Main punya main, finally around 2.30am baru we decided to tido.
Sangat seronok ada a sister to do all these girly things with 8-D
