Gyaru Q&A pt. 2: Makeup version!

ヤッホー~

How are you? I hope you're having a nice gal month until now :D Today I want to share with you my second gal challenge! I really want to contribute to this month's activities so I thought it was time to share this :D I'll quit talking and show you the new challenge, this time all about make up

Let's go!

UP CHALLENGE! 

 

Name:

Natsumin!

 Your Style:

Generally gyarukei but my fav substyles are agejo and tsuyome!

Your Makeup Style:

I love every makeup style from gyaru but I try to stick to my EGG fav models makeup from 2009/2010, especially Yumachi and Chie:

Yumachi

Chie

So I prefer to use heavy dramatic lashes combined with light eyeshadow in natural colors, cuz I love to see my eyelashes and eyeliner pop up more than the rest! But when I work or I feel lazy I prefer Okarie's style from 2008:

Okarie

She uses only heavy upper lashes while the rest is quite light and easy (= fast) to do. I love the brown eyeshadow detail in the outer corner of the eye, it makes the lower lashes stand out even without falsies

Your Makeup Reference:

As I said I try to stick to 2009 style, but since one of my fav substyles is agejo, sometimes I like to take inspo from AGEHA :) so my reference generally are my fav models: Chie, Yumachi, Sakurina and Satomin

Satomin

Sakurina

Yumachi

Chie

I love how simple yet outstanding those makeups are! Chie, Yumachi and Satomin like to look more natural and in contrast Sakurina's makeup is so dramatic!

Your Favorite Makeup Brands:

Rn my faves are NYX, Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Too Faced and Benefit!

Last year I was a lot into Douglas basic makeup line but they changed the formula and removed my fav concealer T_T so I don't buy from their brand anymore, but it was my fav, sigh

Your Must Have Products: 

Surely those! 

Make Up For Ever fixing spray: I tried a lot of sprays but this one is the best until now (second place is NYX spray), especially this summer it helped my makeup stay up even in the pool!

NYX Total Control Pro foundation: I love this foundation! It has a high coverage, a must for me, which I had acne during my teenage years that left me some scars ^^" it's good for eyebags too! But beware that imho it has a neutral tone so it can look grey over someone else :/ (like the model on NYX makeup site ^^")

NYX Epic Ink Liner: the tip is really thin and it's a pen so it's the most comfortable eyeliner I ever had :D

CandyDoll Blush: in Strawberry Pink it's a must! There's nothing more gal than bright pink cheeks

YSL Lipstick: I love it in Peachy Light! It's a pinkish orange with a shiny effect :D

Your Favorite Makeup: 

Probably this one! This time I was wearing "Le Blush" blush from L'oreal in Nectarine while my eyeshadow is from Naked palette.

I like that it looks so golden :D

Your Last Makeup:

Not my best one for sure XD but it was the last I took a pic of www

I like the eyeliner but I can do the lower line more accurate and I need different false lashes! But I like the eyebrows, I think XD  

Others Favorite Makeup:

This makeup from Risa is to die for T___T!! It's really different from what I do usually, I love the black eyeshadow and glitter eyeliner! I want to try it soon!

THIS AINA MAKEUP T____T!!! It's so beautiful, I love the glittery blue eyeshadow and the lower eyelashes/eyeliner is perfection! I want to try it T_T

This Georgiepiyo makeup ;w; it's so cute, I love how her eyes stand out in contrast with pink lips T_T if somebody asks me how a gal makeup should look like, I'd probably show this cuz imho the most important points are really visible!!

Last but not least is this Akichu wonderful eyemake!! I'm so IN LOVE. It's perfect for summer and the beach, and I adore how neat is her eyeliner T_T Also the lenses combined with the blue (eyeliner? eyeshadow? pls tell meeee) makes me think about gorgeous, hawaiian blue seas, it's impossible to not love it

Top 5 Items from your Makeup Collection:

I'm sorry www but I just love my small CandyDoll collection!

Here we have CandyDoll lipglosses (Macaroon Pink, Gelato Glitter), lipsticks (Poodle Pink, Ramune Pink), blushes (Peach Pink, Strawberry Pink), highlight (Cream Beige) and eyeshadow (n.02, grey x red)

Your Makeup Storage:

I store most of my products in this Cecil McBee bag! And I use this Ma*rs mirror to do my makeup at home www

I also have a pink organizer for my brushes and tools and I keep some products on the shelves in my bathroom, but since it's still not well organized (read: a big mess) I'll avoid to take a pic www

I don't do anything special to store them, and I'm probably making a mistake XD I just keep them away from light and heat, clean my brushes often (I have a specific brush-sponge for this) and that's all, I think lol

What's in your Makeup Bag:

The makeup bag I always carry in my bag is this Ravijour pouch! It looks small but can contain so much :D I also carry this compact mirror I got as gift from Japan which can stand up alone, which is really useful :D (I also have the lashes case and lenses case from the same series but I forgot to take a pic sorry ww)

And this is what's inside!

Face: NYX "Can't stop Won't Stop" powder + mini kabuki

NYX "Can't stop Won't Stop" concealer

Make Up For Ever fixing spray

Contouring: Maxfactor Pan stick in cool bronze
