TRES TRES CHIC.

ello. i'm ur nice image friend, not consultant. haha!
anyways, did the image of my dear NUS friends, for our Loreal Brandstorm competition.
the idea is CHIC & SLEEK. ok wadeva.

full-bodied black; the focus's on the makeup.

(credit's to [Yan Ling]'s eyes)
the trick in applying good eye shadow?

1. You need a gd PRIMER for the base, so that the eyeshadow holds.

2. it's all abt HIGHLIGHTING & SHADOWING.
notice the copper brown on the inner eye, dark brown on the outter, and black as a liner.

3. lastly comes BLENDING. Blend the colours well so that there's no abrupt sharp lines.

tt's all for Kim-IMAGE's random eyeshadow tutorial!! xD

DEAD GHOST DOLLS (Actual)

i'm actually very very tired now but really I know that today was for Him
- and that makes me smile to know He smiled. :)
and i'm doing this for the love of my dearest sheep [June]. :))

to [KAREN] & [QIYA]:: infinite thanks to u gals for staying back to help out, even though honestly u do not need to!! I APPRECIATE U GALS TRUCKLOADS!!!!! xD

to [Shi Wei]:: Thank UUU for ur 88 palette!!!! xD

hmm.it din't turn out exactly the way i planned it to be, coz i overlooked SCIENCE - something i kinda hate but now it's getting back at me.
WATER-BASED OILY CREAM FOUNDATION CANNOT GO WITH RED FOOD DYE. it's juz not soluble. minute bt gd lesson learnt..

so much for the Spirit of Excellence (a coverup for being a perfectionist), i figured out that MESS was the best - i mean scariest, and it was kinda proven right after u mess-up 20++ student's faces. I SO HOPE THEY DUN HATE ME COZ I JUZ REALISED E RED FOOD DYE DOES NOT DISAPPEAR IMMEDIATELY AFTER MANY WASHES. uh oh. =X

Supposedly Vintage Doll bt turns out it looks PRC. haha!

yes the boring Joker Doll..

Slashed-faced Doll.
i dunno bt i think she's kinda cute, n tt does'nt scare me. sooo failed attempt!!
and yes. tell me again tt the foundation suck. o cheap stuff.

i swear she'll give me nightmares.
Masterpiece of my lill 2 cute assistants, meet the-doll-who-kena-killed-by-burning-charcoals.
i mean, tt's wad they named her.lols!

Old Maid.
Tried to draw some wrinkles and sprinkle powder for white hair..hmm..

Frankly, her big eyes's scary. haha!!
well, let's call her Bloody-Mary.
Red Food Dye's gd and cheap, and the effect's there.
BUT. those bloody tears are gonna stay with her for quite some time.. SUMI MASEI!! =S

my cute son. >.< he'll nv be scary lahs. hehe!
it's such a pleasure to be doing his image. NIAO-U-TO-DEATH. =p
attempt to make him gothic (black eyeshadow on under eye) and argh the "red veins" on the side's sucha failure - they look like red tree branches. -.-'

yes u can see tt at e end of the night, i ran outta creativity.
sorry... brain cells killed beyond normal quota. if only...

i have absolutely no name for u boy. oh dear.
more convicted to stick back to authentic makeup. haha!


God asked me today, "Kim do you feel for them?"
My answer? Yes I do. I really do. Search my heart; I do.

I will live to carry Your Compassion
To love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
I will give with the life that I've been given
and go beyond religion
to see the world be changed
By the Power of Your Name.
