Hello everybody!
I’ve been infected by LANEIGE mania the past week! I’ve
TWEETED, FACEBOOKED, and INSTAGRAMMED all about it!
In other words, the Nuffnang-Laneige K-Beauty Blogger
Workshop was DAEBAK! \(^_^)/
I learned so much! Thank you for having us there!
THE EVENT
The star of the show! The new BB cushion! <3
The three things we learned that day – skincare, daytime look and night siren look. It’s really easy!
Geraldine
gave us SOOOO many tips that day. Thank you Laneige! (^_^)
Each table had one. So pretty! <3
I also liked that they played a lot of 2NE1 songs in the background.
2NE1 is making a big comeback from July onwards, yo! NOLJA!
Me with just BB cream. Just draw on some eyebrows and I'm ready to go out!
Makeup guru Geraldine helping out my table partner, who also wore green that day. (^_^) Let's meet again!
As a Nuffnang Rookie, I’m not sure
what I was expecting from my very first exclusive event, but I surely wasn’t
expecting a whole row of luxury pastries and hot, steaming coffee from
Starbucks just for us VIP. Thank you so
much for the coffee, I had two cups of really good quality coffee while
learning all about Korean beauty makeup. I was a little too nervous to eat much, though! *shy*
It was really humbling to be in a
room full of a dozen Beautiful Malaysian Bloggers and to be treated like a
superstar who’s endorsing a luxury skincare line. I’m pretty sure blogger BoboStephanie
was sitting behind me, but I was too shy to turn around so I just kept peeking
and peeking from my mirror because that girl is just so darn gorgeous hahahahaha... I want to work hard and attend even
more exclusive events by Nuffnang-Laneige! You guys should work hard and join
the next contest too!
I am a big fan! <3 Geraldine, teacher !
My favourite part about the whole
event though has to be learning from the Super Makeup Guru, Geraldine Loy. She’s
a celebrity by her own right, being recognized by Harper’s Bazaar and has
worked at many glitzy events. This same Wonder Woman actually took the time out
to teach us how to use our makeup products properly as well! Thank you, teacher!
I will work hard every day to achieve the perfect Korean eyebrows! *bows
politely* I was so touched when she actually took the time to advise me about
my eyebrows because mine are exceptionally weird shaped *sigh* (pics below!)
LANEIGE BEAUTY TIPS
FOR ALL
As a take-home assignment, all of us has to blog about the
event. I thought about it for quite some time on how I could create a posting
that is (a)valuable (b) entertaining and not too generic because you guys would
be bored if you had to read about the same event 10 times, right? So... I’m
just going to show you what I learned with animated .gifs!
Basically, we learned about skin preparation, day time
makeup and night time makeup. Sigh. I’m not really sure if I’m brave enough to
show you my clean-face photo, so this will have to do for now, OK? OK!
ACHIEVE SUPPLE AND SMOOTH PRINCESS SKIN WITH LANEIGE
Skin preparation is very important because it acts as the
base/foundation for your makeup. We were taught how to use the LANEIGE White
Plus Renew Line, which comes with pretty basic steps. After washing your face,
you only need three more product application: Skin Refiner, Emulsion and
Essence.
THE LANEIGE KOREAN SWEETHEART LOOK
Transform!
I always wondered how those girls on Korean dramas managed
to look so flawless without a lot of makeup! Now you and I both know how! The
highlight of this tutorial is the new BB Snow Cushion from LANEIGE. It’s quite
possibly the only BB cream in the world in powder form, and it’s super
convenient to use!
The Makeup Steps are: Foundation, Conceal, Eyebrow,
Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, Mascara, Blush and Lipstick. That’s all! You can also dust
on some finishing powder to lock in the makeup, but I like the dewy look given
by the BB cushion.
Step One - Foundation
Step Two - Conceal Imperfections
Step Three - Draw thick eyebrows! The thicker, the better! Don't be scared!!!
Step Four - Eyeshadow
Step Five - Tightline Your Eyelids
Step Six: Lashes!
Step Seven: Blush only the apples of your cheeks
Step Eight: Lipstick (actually best applied with a lip brush)
And here is an extra large before and after photo so you can better see
the difference:
Now you know the 8 makeup steps to look like a completely different girl (^_^)
Now that you’ve achieved the innocent, girl-next-door look,
you can choose to stop here and proceed to do the Gwiyomi finger dance. Or,
read on to learn how you can transform this daytime look into a glamorous night
time concept with LANEIGE makeup!
GIZIBE! THE BADDEST FEMALE LOOK WITH LANEIGE
The main point of this look is in heavily lining your eyes.
To achieve a smoother and darker look with your eyeliner, you should warm the tip up against your hand
first.
The added steps are: Darker eyeshadow, heavy eyeliner,
highlight and darker lipstick.
Step One: Dark eyeshadow first, then apply thicker eyeliner
Step Two: Shiny skin is not suitable for night time! Matte everything with finishing powder
Step Three: Highlight your cheekbones and nose, then apply lipstick. Done!
Check out my before and after photos! The girl on the left likes to wear vintage clothes and visit cute cafes, the girl on the right likes to dance hiphop at underground clubs. Yo yo!
So yes, I had a lot of fun at my very first Nuffnang-Laneige
event and I didn’t even know anyone there! All of the bloggers, Nuffnang and
Laneige staff were super friendly and there is something seriously addictive
about learning how to be more beautiful. It reminds me of the introduction session
during the workshop, when Geraldine asked us why we wanted to learn how to
apply makeup.
For me, makeup makes me pretty and that in return helps with
my self-confidence and happiness. I also like how you can transform from one
person to another with just a few strokes or dab of colour. If you’re a girl, I
highly recommend that you learn makeup too! It’s amazing how your world can
change with a little more beauty added to it.
This must be the longest post ever! Thank you for staying
with me until the end! Fingers crossed that I’ll be lucky enough to attend more
Nuffnang-Laneige events!
Love from your beauty guru, Pam
