"Shine Bright Like A Diamond!" :)

"Shine Bright Like A Diamond!" :)

..."So shine bright, tonight you and I
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shining bright like a diamond
We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky"...

I couldn't help playing Rihanna's song in my head while I was getting ready. I wasn't sure what colour I'd use, until I got to the point of the song, "shine bright like a diamond..."

Immediately it hit me: We're going 'bling bling' ... Hehe!

I've been wanting to try-out some ColorPop products I just got... and it was right on time.

I totally enjoyed creating this: from the silvery, glittery-eye to the deep-red lip colour.
From the high-lighted cheek-bones to the contoured face.
From my little black and white gown to my silver-studded heels... and you'll think with this look, 'mama is going to parrrry!' :( [I sort of did in my mind.Hehehe].

But seriously, you can imagine 'beating' your face and glamming all up, only to go straight to bed. Lol.

Ok, let's get started.

On My Face:

Mary Kay Primer and Oil Mattifier
No 7 Matte Make Up Base (If you've got oily-skin, I recommend this, of course nothing beats my Milk Of Magnesia,but these days use it only for special occasions)
LA Pro Concealer in Orange (Works pretty well for dark-spots or under-eye dark-circles)
LA Pro Concealer in Toast (To High-light)
LA Pro Concealer in Mahogany (To Contour)
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Cappuccino (My all time favourite Foundation, especially with the warm climate)
Tara Flawless Matte Foundation in TM329 (My second favourite foundation, I mix a little with my Revlon, it gives a perfect matte and full coverage)
Milani Powder in Deep (I reach for this more than my Mac Studio Fix, that's how much I like this)
Sacha Buttercup Setting Powder (Bye bye, Ben Nye Banana Powder; this is amazeballs!)
CoverGirl in Ebony Bronze
Sleek Blush in Bonfire
Carli Bybel High-lighter (From her palette)
