Make Me Up - The Natural Look

So here this is an entry for muslim girls who hates make up but still wants to look presentable and want to put that touch of glow on your face. So here is my idea of wearing make up to the minimal and have the natural look or glow on your face. No foundation or compact powder used.

I hate wearing make up, my usual make up are only the lipgloss and the white powder featured below. If I am not lazy I would use eyeliner. If you are lucky you will see me wearing all the items below plus eyeliner which only happens once in a blue moon!

So this is dedicated to girls like me.

All you need are the above items. The blusher I use are the ones in the small glass tub it is called soft mousse blush from Avon.
Bottom is the video for it. I find it to be a bad make up video I am so sorry like I said I am NO expert.


Here is my before and after look

BEFORE

AFTER

Not much difference huh? It just gives you that healthy glow and a little colour on you. This is my natural look. I love the eyelash but I know you can't see it but I did both top and bottom lash so it will look like you have indian or latina eyes.

Tell me what you think? Hate it or love the idea of simple make up.

This is what I call the America Ferrera look which I give a different twist with a different color hot pink, though yellow is also a great choice. I just love those shoes, don't you?

Asian & Fusion Hijab Fashion Styles

Hello darlings.
Well I know Islamic fashion festival or IFF actually happened early this year when this blog haven't been kicked off. But I found some fabulous clothes on this runway which is of Asian and Fusion. I just love the designs and vibrant colours. Let it roll...
The Indonesian Style

On these Indonesian styles I totally love and amazed at the fact that they made a slip on al-amira type of hijab which many of us wear only when we wanna go grocery shopping into beautiful runway material by wrapping it with beautiful shawl.
The fusion style of Arab & Malay

Man I love the pant suit it is sooo colourfully delicious. I'd trash the turban though haha. The black suit is made of a malay traditional cloth called songket which is usually worn by royalty in the olden days but trust me this cloth is coming back in full swing!

Malay Style

These are really pure malay styles ; baju kurung and kebaya. Trust me I don't really like the ankle showing BUT this traditional costume's skirt can actually be lengthen to our liking. Actually baju kurung the second photo the skirt is suppose to be long but i think all this ankle showing are for the runway only.

These designs are the kind you can replicate and tailor it for events like Eid or so.

IFF website here and discover who are the designers involved.
