  1. Hi Karima
    I just did a two parter post on Aussie drugstore brands and the best find I came across was the Australis “Cray for Colour Eye Crayons” – basically cream eyeshadow pencils – freaking amazeballs! Was not expecting them to perform anywhere near as well as they did, especially on my oily eyelids. Definitely worth checking out šŸ™‚

  2. Reallly striking look, reallly fun video. Love the eye shaping science breakdown, those little drawn on diagrams are one of the greatest (geekiest) things about asain beauty tutorials and you make excellent use of them here!

  3. Your foundation mix, will that be good for a combo skin? I like a sort of natural finish but sometimes get a tad shiny in my T zone. Also I’m a bit conficted on my colour choice. I’m a B20 for Chanel perfection lumiere, was matched to #4 for GA luminous silk and S202 for Elia faas concealer. What colour would you recommend? I think it I’m similar to you.

    1. If you’re GA in shade 4, you are pretty much exactly my skin tone. The foundation mix is good for combo skin and lasts very well, you could try mixing the shades I use since we appear to be of similar colouring.
