liyeemay™: Makeup

Tokyo Luxey recently came up with several meetups held in various parts of the Asian region namely Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong and Bangkok. You may not heard of TL (trust me, I do too before attending the meetup) TL is still new, as it only make recent emerges in the market.

What is Tokyo Luxey?

As the names says it all, Tokyo Luxey is a global community originated from Japan, bearing the company name Rouge Asia Inc. (formerly ChieMaeda, Inc.). http://rouge-asia.com/ Their philosophy at TL is to build a bridge between Asia and Japan, bringing Japanese products into Asian market. So be expected to see wholly Japanese products from their website.

Being the curious me, when TL contacted me to be a Luxey (anyone joining TL community would be referred to as a Luxey) of course I agreed without hesitation and they were so kind to invite Luxeys to meetups held at the convenience of your countries (Asian only). A sincere thank you to TL for bringing not only japanese cosmetics, beauty products, beauty and lifestyle tips but also gather bloggers together to interact and exchange information.

At the meetup held in P.S. Cafe @Demspsey Hill in Singapore, we were introduced to Ms. Chie Maeda-san (CEO of Rouge Asia and TL) and Ms. Hiromi Hanado-san (Marketing Director of TL ). Yes, where can you find a friendly event that is chaired by non other than the CEO itself right, really humble. And imagine our excitement to find our exclusive bag of goodies presented nicely on each chair. After a brief introduction with all bloggers, Ms. Chie Maeda-san explained the origin of TL, how does the ambassador program works, what beauty and cosmetic products TL offer in the goodies bag and lastly, gaining our opinions on products we are interested and hoping TL would bring in. Yes you heard it TL cares about its consumers.

Hi peeps,

Did a makeup tutorial for brown smokey eyes as a request from a friend of mine. I chose brown because its the easiest to draw and can be worn on most days, although you dont kinda draw smokey eyes everyday la, I mean it could be worn during the daytime also as the one I have shown here is the natural, not the dramatic type.

And this tutorial could be applied on monolids as well as double eyelids. I have also shown how to create larger eyes (obviously), so consider this as a lifesaver for those monolids like me, I know how you all felt..

So now everyone can have beautiful eyes \(^o^)/

#1 The top left are the results of monolids, after creating doublelid, with falsies on and final results on bottom right. Notice the dramatic difference? The tools most useful to create an impression of larger eyes are colour cons and doublelids.

#2 Products used in this tutorial

Ps: My tutorial here focuses mainly on the eyes, if you would like a focus on foundation routine, or even how to draw eyeliner, shading can send me requests ya..

Happy watching ^__^v
