Did some Before/After of my own! Hihi. 
I wanted my makeup look to be dramatic but not THAT dramatic that i'd look too overly done. Seeing that my dress was a bold ensemble, I had to use natural colored shadows to tone down my overall look. 
The lashes and the red lipstick was really the key in creating "the look"
 (Lol sorry it just sounds funny when you say it)  

Quick Tip: If you want to re-create this look, use false lashes that are winged out at the ends. This can make your eyes bigger while opening out your face more. && it gives you that flirty effect too ;) 



The host for the evening: Ms. Rita from PICO Singapore 


Quick re-touch for Ms. Anne Tan! She was running late and so I just completed her look with lining her eyes with black eyeliner to give her this rocker-edgy vibe. Haha! Her hair adds to the overall look and so I decided to play up the drama. 

Sometimes, its okay to do things beyond your comfort zone. It's not everyday that you have the opportunity to be overly fabulous and not be judged by it! ;)

(Oh! And sorry for the bad shot.. She was really running late! Haha)

Bro and I 


 I just had to take a picture of my nails!!! Currently loving this deep red shade on me.. Hihi!
I dont know if the Beautician who did my nails is really that pro or is the nail polish really that indestructible! 
Ok well, if you can see it, my pointer got chipped a little but then I did so many errands/bookings the whole week, it was bound to get damaged!? ahaha. 

Still!! Just the best red nail polish i've ever tried!

Quick advice: Never let your makeup wear you. Makeup should make you look and feel beautiful, not the other way around.




So what do you think of my makeup look? 
Would love to hear your thoughts! Message me through email (steph_lagandaon_002@yahoo.com) or comment below! 


XOXO, StephanieHearts
