Royal Blue

Ahh I love this blue eyeshadow from my NYX Jazz Night palette but I find that the blue color doesn't stay vibrant all day. :( It fades and becomes muddy on me. I want to find a similar shade with better staying power. I'm thinking maybe something from MAC?
(Yeah yeah I admit, I've become another MAC junkie. :p
)

This look is one of my faves to do! It's great for night-outs and if I want to tone it down a bit, I just blend some brown eyeshadow above my crease.

So I dyed my hair! I used L'oreal Excellence cream in Chocolate Brown. It's not the most dramatic change, I know, but it'll do for now. I just wanted to see if I'd like my hair dark brown. I think I'm going to get it done at the salon next to get a truer, lighter brown color. I've never really gone more than two shades lighter than my actual hair color before so that should be fun.

Speaking about hair, this song has been playing on my iPod almost 24/7..

  2. Wow you look so beautiful Fifi, like a model. The EOTD is really cool, sorry to hear about NYX Jazz Night though. My bf likes Blonde Redhead so I'm listening to their stuff a lot too. ^^

  7. if youd like to achieve dark brown hair, get medium brown hair dye to dye your hair. im serious

    because the real color on the box will only show up if you have bleached hair. if you have black hair, it wont look exactly like on the picture

    so basically, get medium brown for having dark brown
    get light brown for having medium brown
    it works for asian black hair :) hope this helps <3

  8. Hi Stella! Thank you for your input but actually I did know that, heheh ^^
    At the time when I bought the hair dye, Chocolate Brown was the lightest brown they had in stock, so.. yeah, I decided to just get it done at the salon because I'm sure they'll have more color selection. :)

  9. Fifi, if anyone could rock colourful eyeshadows and colourful contacts at the same time, it'd be you ;)

  10. HI Fifi! The royal blue shade looks gorgeous on you :) MAC might have a colour similar to the NYX one (not one that I know off by hand) but it's such a pretty and unique colour - it's too bad it doesn't stay that shade all day long.
    It's always fun to play around with hair colour. I think you'll like going lighter for a change ;)

  11. Fifi this is such a sexy look. I always enjoy your smoky eyes with nude lips.

    Oh and I'm sure you can pull off red lips. Try it!
