Beauty Bookmarks resume on Wednesday. Why?


Beauty Bookmarks will resume on Wednesdays. Reason being I wasn't so happy with the videos from last week, so I'm giving YouTubers another 3 days to find more bookmarks! 

I'll continue with Beauty Bookmarks on Wednesdays!

P.S Hope you're liking my beauty videos!

New Video: Nude Lips

Nude lips are hard for me, well not hard, just more labour intensive because my lips are a light pink, and putting a nude lipstick by itself makes me look SO washed out.

So I'm showing you my Nude lipstick/gloss collection and my SECRET WEAPON to making the nude lipstick stand out. Ok maybe not so secret... pretty easy actually.

I'm testing drugstore to high end products, all with such great formula and consistency.

Products used: 

+ Make Up For Ever - 3C
+ Revlon Lip Butter - 095 Creme Brulee
+ Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick - Shade 14
+ MAC Satin Lipstick - Cherish
+ MAC Lipglass - Prrr

Beauty Bookmarks Week 2 - 48.28 minutes of Beauty and Fashion Goodness






1. Victoria Beckham Fall 2013

As a massive Spice Girls fan, I had to watch this video to see what Victoria Beckham's style is evolving into. Her pieces (and choice in music) were so simple yet complicated at the same time. It makes you want to put a belt on all your outfits! The different skirt slit may be a new trend we'll see soon... 

2. Favorite Season for Style

Have you heard of WhoWhatWear? Well I think it may be your new favourite site. Think online magazine constantly constantly constantly updated with high quality looks and advice. Here they talk about style and great investment pieces, and a whole lotta fashion advice. LOVE. 


I've always wanted to know how to get the Beyonce glow. What else can I say, it's super duper easy. Remember to contour your nose! Side note: Do you think Beyonce's nose has gotten thinner and thinner? Side note again: Tanya is the girlfriend of the dude below... 


Husband wanted to know how to get Justin Timberlake hair, that's all I'm saying. Share this with your man if you want him to look like Beckham, or Timberlake... or Mr Shu from Glee... 

5. The Best Foundation For Your Skin

It's hard enough trying to find a foundation is a store with hideous artificial light, let alone finding the right one for our skin type. The Pixiwoo ladies make it so much easier. Expect a speedy review of all the foundations for your skin type - drugstore and high end. I love these really quick advice videos. 


Judy makes a great reporter! I love seeing backstage footage, and seeing the madness behind the catwalk. 


I love how Bubz took advantage of Valentine's Day (for those alone or not alone) and made a video on pampering. Pampering, we all need it, and all love it. 

8. Glee Star Lea Michele Does Some LA Shopping

I love this series, I love how Aussie Laura Brown from HelloStyle interviews these mega stars and has so much fun doing it! I love Glee, so naturally I love Lea. She's so down to earth and refuses to sing! Hah! 


So this is from the very famous, very incredible, very stylish, very amazing team at Find and Steal.. ahem. OUR FIRST VIDEO!!! Expect more 1 minute-ish videos, because girl, I gots no more time than that! 

Enjoy Week 2! Take care kids!

Our first F&S Video! 3 Ways to tie a Headscarf


Behold our first Find & Steal video!

Yesterday, myself and Haiina were hanging out at Sham's house, and I thought, I have a scarf expert with me, show me some looks! So we filmed 2 looks, and then I tried it myself and made another look!  This is perfect for those bad hair days, or days you can't be bothered styling, which is me when I wake up late for work!

It works best with stretchy, less smooth scarves so they can stay in place when tied up. Hope you enjoy the video! Please like or subscribe to our channel for more!

Welcome to Beauty Bookmarks! Week 1


Welcome to the first of our weekly Beauty Bookmarks! 
My favourite hobby is watching beauty and fashion videos on YouTube, and I'd like to share my weekly favourites with you! There is a wealth of informative and well produced videos on YouTube, but we all can't afford to spend hours each night trawling through them, so I'm taking the effort out of it for you, and curating the best beauty videos for your enjoyment! 

Beauty Bookmarks is a new concept which I hope you'll enjoy following and watching as much as I do!

There are 2 ways to watch our specially curated playlists:

1. View playlist here and subscribe to our channel!

OR

2. Watch directly from this site

Let's begin!

1. Rihanna Rolling Stone Cover Makeup Tutorial by MakeupByLeinaBaaaby
What I love about this tutorial is that it's a twist on a natural makeup look. Rihanna looks gorgeous on the cover of Rolling Stone and all it took was double fake eyelashes! Ok maybe a bit more...

2. DIY Makeup Brushes - Wanderlust by FAWNinc
If you watch halfway, you'll see a new way of decorating your brushes! Such an ingenius idea! Also, teaches us girls if you see a hole in the market (in this case makeup store in Germany), fill it!

3. Pony Tail Rope Braid by LuxyHair
I have ALWAYS wanted to know how to do this braid, and the secret all along was... just watch the video!

4. Eyeshadow Tips for Different Skin Tones by LancomeStudio
If you don't have a crease, rock this instead. So easy, so simple.

Lady Gaga subliminally sets our makeup and fashion trends


Lady Gaga is a trendsetter. 'No she's not! She's too outrageous!'.
Well, have you had the desire to dye your hair a pastel colour, specifically mint green? Or have you bought a pastel coloured sweater, shirt or jeans? In her video 
Marry The Night: The Prelude Pathétique, she predicted that mint was going to be the colour of Spring 2012 "and I also believe that mint will be very big in fashion next Spring." And wow, we went on a mint crazy in 2012, but did we attribute it to Lady Gaga? 







In saying that, let's see what Lady Gaga trend will continue onto 2013? 
I believe it will be brown lipstick, brown or natural eyeshadows with strong brows. Did you follow Lady Gaga's twitter photos in 2012? Or analyse her makeup at events? 










They all had a muted red or brown lip, overdrawn. 

Strong liquid eyeliner, above the eye only. 

Filled in brows and slightly exaggerated. 

That's it, I think that's the biggest 2013 trend. I'm already noticing YouTube makeup gurus doing tutorials on brown eye looks and 'natural' looks with a mix of shimmer and matte brown shadows. I've already moved my pink lipsticks aside and dusting off my brown lipliners and bought a brown NYX lipstick on my trip to Jakarta. 

And yes, I'm a HUGE Lady Gaga fan.
