My Virginia Olsen Makeup Tutorial

Hello Candylovers!!! I'm pretty excited to share with you what I came up and think of VOM's eyeshadows. I bought the three best sellers namely Chartreuse, Jirbie & Plum-Lovin which I will be using in my eye makeup tutorial plus some of VOM's products too. So without further ado, let's get started!
Steps:
1. Foundation (Jordana Oil Free Liquid Foundation in 11 Tawny)
2. Concealer (Wet n Wild Cover All Liquid Concealer in 814)
3. Powder (VOM Powder in Warm Olive Glow)
4. Eyebrows (NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in ECP02 Brown)
5. Prime your eyelids (ELF Eyelid Primer)
6. Load your brush with Chartreuse and pat it on your eyelids, as seen in photo #2
7. Put Jirbie on your outer v to crease and blend it well, as seen in photo #3
8. Get a pencil brush and load it with Plum-Lovin on your lower lashes, as seen in photo #4
9. Highlight your inner ducts by using Tinkerbelle, as seen in photo #5
10. Highlight your browbone with a matte powder, as seen in photo #6 (I'm using VOM HD Mattifying Base)
11. Line your eyes with a blue liquid eyeliner, as seen in photo #7 (Beauty UK in N08)
12. Curl your lashes and apply mascara (Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler and Wet n Wild Mega Pump Mascara in Indigo Black)
13. Apply Falsies on top lashes
14. Contour your nose and cheeks (NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in ECP02 Brown)
15. Apply blush on the apples of the cheeks (VOM Romantic Blush)
16. Put a peachy pink/ mauvey or pinkish lipstick/ lipstain (Miners Mood Gloss in Glastonberry)

And here are the final looks
the colors reminded me so much of "Peacock" :)
with the right blending and color combination, it's still wearable for daytime. :)

Virginia Olsen Fantasy Collection

Hello Candylovers!!! Last November 16, 2012, Friday, I was fortunate enough to be invited by Virginia Olsen for the launch of their newest collection, "Fantasy". What's good about it, I just have to take the elevator up to 29th floor since my office work is in the same building. :) 

Just a little background of Virginia Olsen
Virginia Olsen is 100% natural, paraben free, bismuth & talc free, and pure mineral make-up suitable for women of any age, ethnicity or skin type. Our formulations are calming to the skin, making them ideal for women prone to sensitivities; and being fragrance-free, they are particularly compatible with delicate skin, giving a sheer, natural, flawless coverage. Further, our makeup unlocks the therapeutic properties of zinc oxide and the natural sunscreen provided by titanium dioxide. -(from their website) http://virginiaolsen.com/about
There are 7 iridescent shimmer in the Fantasy collection namely
Stardust, Moonlight Star, Tinkerbelle, Fairydust, Kryptonite, Crescent Moon & Lovers Moon.
I actually love all of the shades, since it's my first time to encounter an iridescent eyeshadow. But my ultimate 
favorite in the collection is Tinkerbelle! It has a peachy shade but when you apply it on your eyes, it turns out to be lavender. How cool is that! :)

Here are some of the Products of Virginia Olsen
They have 7 Makeup Brushes 
Total Face Brush, Contour/Blush Brush, Eyeshadow Brush, Concealer Brush, Blending Eye Brush, Angled Eyeliner/Eyebrow Brush & Kabuki Brush
These brushes are hypo-allergenic, soft and safe for delicate complexions. It really reminds me of Eco Tools, don't you think? :)
The top part are the actual packaging of the eyeshadows while the lower part are the testers only.

Beauty Bloggers Sam (http://dishysammy.com/) & Gem (http://www.rarevanity.net/)
are busy swatching some of the eyeshadows. :)
are having a krispy kreme :p lol!
Virginia Olsen is proudly introducing their new product called Sophia Eyelash Enhancer.
The product costs P2750, per bottle and luckily I got it for only........
P0.00 :) YES!!! I won the raffle! Thank you so much! :D
(will do a documentation about it soon)

So, here we are with Ms. Jirbie Go, Marketing Manager & Ms. Hazel Salcedo, Marketing Assistant of Virginia Olsen :)
From left to right:

AND of course, we are very happy going home with our VOM loot bags. Woot! Woot! :D

I can't wait to share with you my eye makeup tutorial for these lovely eyeshadows. :)
