Color Corrective Concealer : Green, Yellow and Lavender (Mauve)

When i browsed to find a good concealer for my face, include acne scars, under-eye circles and some spots of my face that i wish to hide, i found 3 kind of color corrective concealer. There are green, yellow, and lavender. And i was like, what? Which color should i use? Then i found this this color wheel from here.Now, before you choose which color corrective concealer, you must identify the flaw that you want to cover. Is it acne (red) or under-eye circles (blue) or else?
By using the color wheel above, you can neutralizes the color that you want to hide with the color that appear opposite on the color wheel. Example, orange neutralizes blue, yellow neutralizes violet and so on.

So from that we know that :

Green : Neutralized red tones on skin, covering blemishes, zits, red blotches, rosacea, port-wine stains.

Yellow : Conceal bluish bruises, under-eye circles and mild red tones on face.

Lavender : Normalized yellow-colored skin imperfections such as dull complexion and yellow bruises. This also help to conceal very dark under-eye circles and dark spots on bronze skin tones.

How do you apply it?
After you put the color that you choose, don't forget to cover with your shade of foundation.

Any idea what color to choose? Just remember the color wheel. Happy shopping readers!

SS187 Sigma Brushes

Paket Sigma Brushes, cantik banget merahnya..

Akhirnya datang jugaaa...
Gue penasaran banget sama Sigma Makeup Brush ini semenjak banyak beredar review di Youtube dari Enkore sama Tiffany. Karena gue termasuk newbie dalam dunia per-makeupan, gue belum segitunya untuk beli brush MAC yang harganya alamakk jan bikin tong pes alias kantong kempes. Ternyata munculah Sigma Makeup brush ini yang comparable to MAC dengan harga yang ringanan lah ya. Gue ngga bilang ini murah murah banget sih, tapi layak di coba. Now here is what i bought..

SS187 Sigma Makeup Brush

Yes, SS187. Nah, brush SS187 ini bisa dibilang dupe (duplikat) dari MAC #187, kebetulan namanya sama? Wah saya kurang tau itu kenapa dinamainnya sama kaya MAC. Tapi menurut gue, untuk newbie kaya gue sih sah sah aja ya dikasih nomer mirip kaya brushnya MAC, karena gue blum hafal mati nomer nomer brush nya MAC dan kegunaannya untuk apa. Knapa gue beli SS187, karena, gue beberapa kali liat review di Youtubenya Enkore, dia bilang brush ini multifungsi. Bisa dipake buat apply liquid foundie biar kesan efek airbrushed dan bisa juga buat apply blush, name it, hampir bisa untuk semua aplikasi kecuali buat mata yah.

Quote dari brosurnya Sigma Makeup :
A large full circular brush used for lightweight application and blending of face powder or pigments. Use to create soft layers or add textures. Made from a soft blend of goat and synthetic fibers. Also great for application of liquid foundation for a flawless finish.

Free e.l.f Brightening Eye Color

Dannn,
Yang bikin gue seneng adalah, gue dapet free e.l.f Brightening Eye Color abu-abu called Drama. Gue kira, yang dapet gratisan ini yang beli brush set. Ternyata beli yang single brush pun dapet juga. Cant wait to wash and try it out with my liquid foundation.
