A while back I was doing makeup for a photoshoot by Petra Lönnqvist. We shot promo pics for the Finnish jewelry web shop Koruharakka.

And here's some pic from that shoot:

I’m not really a Big Bang fan but I really love Taeyang’s song
 “I need a Girl”.^^

He got two music video for it, both of it features 2ne1’s Sandara Park.

I love the second one, which is the dance version,
Taeyang wearing white, and Dara wearing black.

YG is the most genius out of all the major talent company/agency

in South Korea for producing unique and fierce talents.

Don't get me wrong, I love SMENT,

but when it comes to music,

concept, stage presence, talent and fashion sense,

I'm hands down to YG artists.

2ne1 & Big Bang

They can even promote successfully as single artists,

and a bomb when they're together.

All the individual songs from Big Bang were good,

particularly G-Dragon's,

but I'm loving Taeyang's single so much.

This is one of my most played songs of all time,

and maybe if he sang it in english

he can even beat Usher and Chris Brown.

Although Dara is not a graceful dancer, she's a pure beauty and any weird makeups,

hairstyles and clothes thrown on her turned out to be really good.

Her clothes for the MV, I found it thru 2ne1bangs.com

I want to recreate one of her looks when she was focused 
while G Dragon was rapping together with Taeyang.

It’s a simple bright and fun look which is wearable.

You can even wear it everyday for work, or even in school.

Minimal makeup was used. 

Face base, good foundation,
 black eyeliner & eyeshadow plus shimmer,  
nude lips, then voila!!

 Mah name is Dah-rah~

Still more Halloween looks... :D

Here's a broken doll tutorial: 

First use light/white base for your face if you want. Also put on your contacts, if you're planning to wear them. Mine are Diamond Blue contacts from bornprettystore.com:

Shape the broken areas with black pencil or such:

Darken the broken areas so that they look 3d:

Add blush, I used quite a lot to make the doll look. I also used nude eyeshadow to do a bit of shaping around nose and eyes:

Then the eye makeup. I went with using black on the outer corners, but you can use what ever style you prefer:

Then mascara and big false lashes, mine are from http://eyecandylens.com/:

Then I added short lines under the eye:

Finally do brows, lips and wig and stuff, and ready!

This is a tutorial based on MAC's halloween facechart:

If you are pale, start with few shades darker foundation what you normally use:

Start the mask by shaping the "ornaments" with light/white pencil:

Then use darker pencil (light brown, brown) pencil to shade the ornaments:

Use small brush to apply light brown or brown  eyeshadow to make the ornaments to pop more:

Apply some light/ white eyeshadow to the the light parts to make them pop more too:

Add more brown and white, until you're satisfied:

Then apply eye makeup, I lined my eyes with dark brown pencil, and then blended them with dark brown eyeshadow:

Finally I added mascara and lipstick:

And the look is done!
