A Quick Day to Night Makeup Look with Smashbox Naked Beauty Collection

July 26, 2010 Paris B 34 Comments

If you are reading this post, it means that (a) You survived the weekend! and (b) we’re on the same page after the upgrade of My Women Stuff yay! 🙂

Smashbox Naked Beauty collection

I was playing around with the Smashbox Naked Beauty collection and realized just how useful it was for creating day to night looks. Well, you can’t use it by itself to create a night look per se. You’d need some darker eyeshadows on hand but its got everything for a nude lip and a gentle flush on the cheeks so you only really need to add on something for the eyes. I actually hit upon this idea because I needed some quick fixes for when I do travel and I did not want to tote too many things around with me.

Day Look – Rosy Lips and Neutral Eye

Smashbox Day Look

This is a good look for lazy days or perhaps a weekend or maybe even when you’re on vacation. I used the Naked Beauty High Lights/ Creamy Cheek Duo for the cheeks. Red side for colour and the pearly side on top of it. The effect is very subtle and for some reason, my eyes are looking tiny 😛

On lips, I used the Naked Beauty lipgloss in Pure which is a rosy shade. For eyes, I used the Naked Beauty Photo Finish Lid Primer in Golden Nude alone, with black eyeliner and mascara. The lid primer does a great job as a neutral looking cream eyeshadow and lasts all day since it IS a lid primer after all. I hope they bring Golden Nude back as a permanent fixture because its great for lazy days 😉

To take this look to the night, I only changed the lip colour and added on stronger eyeshadow.

Alert! We’re Upgrading to serve you better

July 23, 2010 Paris B 2 Comments

Hiya Ladies,

I got some bad news early this week. My Women Stuff has outgrown its current server! This explains the downtime you might have noticed happen from time to time when surfing the site. It bugs me as much as it bugs you, I can assure you! But it also makes me happy in a perverse sort of way because that means lots of people are reading and being a part of our little community 😀 Yay everyone!

So, after a few emails (and lots and lots of moolah later), I’m happy to report that My Women Stuff is moving to slightly bigger digs. My webhost and I (well mostly my host) will be working to get the site migrated over to a new server over the weekend so there will be no updates this weekend to facilitate this move. It should be a brief painless affair but it will take between 24-72 hours for the DNS to propagate and for everyone to be on the same page.

This does not affect the previous posts so if you’d like to do some catching up on the archives, now’s your chance to. Some new comments might go missing during this move but we will try to minimize all disruptions.

Once we’re up and running on the new server, you will hopefully have a faster, smoother browsing experience here on My Women Stuff and I’ll try to learn up enough code to implement niftier stuff 😛

In the meantime, go! Enjoy the weekend. I know I will 🙂 I’ll catch up with ya on Monday!

xoxo

Smashbox Naked Beauty Summer Collection – Some Pictures

July 23, 2010 Paris B 23 Comments

I’m not usually into Summer collections but this new one from Smashbox has caught my eye for a while ever since I saw it on other blogs. Incidentally, its now available at our local Smashbox counter so its a good time to tell you about it 🙂

Smashbox Naked Beauty collection

Smashbox Naked Beauty is a small collection but I think its a very decent sort of collection and I do hope they make one of it permanent – I’ll tell you which below.

I showed you the Naked Beauty Lip Gloss collection last week. Its a boxed set of 8 mini lipglosses in sheer shades.

Smashbox gloss Pure and Nude

I only kept 2 – Pure (rose tint) and Nude (neutral nude) and the rest will be with my friends. The texture is a little thick but its non sticky and being mini, its easy to slip into your pocket or handbag. The only problem of course is that since its so mini, you are liable to lose it and I can just see that happening to me. Get it for yourself, or to share out with friends, or just break it up to add to gifts for friends.

The item I like most in this collection is the Photo Finish Lid Primer in Golden Nude.

Smashbox Golden Nude lid primer

It works well either worn on its own with liner and mascara or under powder shadows for greater intensity of colour and lasting power. I like it both ways and I do hope Smashbox makes this a permanent feature.

Kanebo Coffret D’Or Dual Beauty Blush 03 – Red

Say Hello to Coffret D’or’s new blush that had me at “Hello”. I just did not realize it was so tiny when I bought it!

Paris B

Kanebo Coffret D’Or Dual Beauty Blush comes in 3 shades and I purchased it online at US$28. Possibly cheaper when its available at local Kanebo counters later in the year.
