Lip color TYPES

Got this usefull article in Epinions. I found it usefull when comes to selecting the lip color I want. There is a lot to decide on before picking out a lipstick! In the market, there is so many kinds of lipstick, lip gloss, lip balm.... What's their different??

There are several types of lipstick formulas that offer different benefits...here are the most common ones, outlined below.

TRANSFER-RESISTANT
means that the lipstick should last up to eight hours, unless you are eating something greasy or oily. This means your color won't come off, but it can feel dry on lips.

LONG-WEARING
means it should stay put for four-six hours but will also probably feel dry. To balance the dryness, look for long-wearing formulas that also containing moisturizers like Vitamin E and aloe.

FROSTED
means that the lipstick will be shimmery, glimmery and irridescent, due to light-reflecting ingredients in the formula.

MATTE
means it will be colorful but opaque, making the pigments flat and non-shiny...this is often also a drying formula.

CREAM
means the formula contains some light waxes like candelilla so your lips won't be as dry, but the formula tends to last for shorter amounts of time.

MOISTURIZING
means the lipstick should be smooth and shiny and usually contains the moisturizing ingredients like Vitamin E and aloe...however, it won't last as long as some other formulas.

SATIN or SHEER
means it will be glossy and full of moisture, but requires lots of reapplication. Usually has a high oil content and looks much darker in the tube than it will on your mouth.

东方的彩妆和西方的彩妆有点不一样

最近我在找哪一种皮肤适合哪一种口红。

发觉东方的彩妆和西方的彩妆有点不一样。

以下时东方的彩妆:

根据三原色的特性,口红的颜色可分为两类




  1. 一类带黄色,属于暖色系列,包括红黄色、粉黄色、橙色等;
  2. 另一组带蓝色,属于冷色系列,包括紫色、玫红、桃红等。

肤色 VS 口红的颜色

  1. 深色的皮肤,那么口红的选择就会很多:深紫红色,巧克力色,红色,轻淡的颜色和橙色。(通常来说,肤色越深,选择口红的色调越深,这样的搭配会使你看起来更漂亮。
  2. 肤色适中,任何色调的红色都会适合你: 褐色系的紫红色,透明的莓子色,深棕色
  3. 肤色较白,透明的纯色会使你变得更吸引人: 该遵循的色调是米色,浅珊瑚红,浅粉色。




以下时西方的彩妆:

Choose a color that complements the natural shade of your lips and skin. ~ By Ehow.

Skin Tone


  1. Dark skin tone: Plums, wines and deep reds
  2. Lighter skin tone: light-brown beiges with pink or orange undertones
  3. Olive skin :brownish reds, light browns and raisin shades
Day and Nite Colors differ

  • Daytime: lighter colors, Matte and cream finishes offer a subtler daytime look. A sheer, natural-looking color with a little shine also works well for day.
  • Night: darker colors, a high-gloss finish adds glamour for evening


Deep or bold lip color complements light eye makeup, while light or nude lipstick flatters heavy eye makeup.

Use the warm/cool theory: women with olive complexions look best in warm colors (yellow based) and women with fair skin look better in cool (blue based) colors.

#####################################################

Here are some suggestion from epinions.

Here is a list of common skin tones and good colors:
  • Yellow: The best shades for this kind of skin are light and dark browns, warm reds and very light hues.
  • Rose: The best colors for this skin tone are reds, pinks and colors.
  • Dark: The best kind of lip color for this skin is rose, dark purple and light colors.
  • Tanned: The best color for tanned skin is pink or light colors, always.
  • Fair: The best kind for this type of skin is an orange-red, a pink or a light purple.

    为何保养是那么重要

    一位化妆师的看法 ~ 为何保养是那么重要。我feel她说得很有道理:

    人从25岁以后身体机能就开始退化,皮肤的再生能力也远远没有青春期的时候好.
    到了28岁 ,更是关键,因为,这个年纪是亚洲人出现衰老皱纹的开始,如果没有好好护理,30岁以后就会更加快速的衰老了。

    我实在不知道100元 (*她可能是住在中国获台湾*)能买到什么样的化妆品,ok,我们换句话说,就算你的皮肤很好,100元左右的化妆品也非常适合,但是,眼霜,绝对要买好的,一分钱一分货,就是这个道理,你用的着哩已经远远不能满足你在这个年纪的眼部的需要了,一定要买一个对于防止皱纹,淡化细小皱纹的滋润眼霜,绝对不可以买便宜货。

    很多女孩子喜欢买衣服,买首饰,一说到护肤品化妆品,就嫌贵,但是,如果你少买一件衣服,少带一件首饰,这钱就出来了,我们能有几件衣服几双鞋能陪我们走一辈子,可是,我们的脸是啊,怎么能随便打发呢!!

    在这个方面的投资是需要的也是必要的,我现在25岁,我的皮肤比我在我20岁的时候还要好,我希望我30岁的时候还能保持这个状态,这是一个长期的过程,但是,好的,适合的化妆品是你最有力的武器。

    Accident

    Bad news~ Early morning my love recieve a phone call from his family, saying that one of his cousin dead yesterday from a car accident. What a shocking news. My love say, the last time their meet was at "Cheng Meng", they go together sweeping the kubur. His cousin left his wife and 2 children which is 8 and 4 years old. So pity. Heard that the car hit and run, while he hurt his chest during the accident. Accident occur at 11pm, but people just found him at 1am, so scary. If he was found earilier, maybe he have more chance to surivive. The most pity is how his wife and children need to live. My love was sad, i feel that he and his cousin is very close, as they use to play with each other when their are young. People can go like this, one day he is here, another day he is gone forever.

    Tote Bag

    Brought a Tote bag today, big, sharp green, nylon, from Gurdian. Very cheap from what I see today, RM 15.88. Compare to the 1st time I see the bag, it was RM29.90. The shop earn alot, as the price is so high, and they can reduce the price until this low to sell during sales. But very big the bag, very suitable for travelling which consist of 2 to 3 days trip.

    Busy week

    Long long time didn't blog... why? Busy during working hours

    Use to blog every day, but now, seems lesser time to blog, or even see people blog.
    My working place is an IT base company, when I join, mostly we are working with UK or AU clients, but now, slowly more towards local clients.

    Local clients have one thing very bad, is they like to change requirements frequently, very frequent. The manager say that we cannot stop clients from changing update information - This i can understand. But even sign off project, deliever live project, they will like to make changes somemore. Forever changing.

    Somemore now doing translation~ Japanese. Like see indian words lo~

    Last week, whole week rushing for a new project for the local clients. I'm so scare that they make changes again and again.
