I don’t normally make new year’s resolutions, but this year, I promise myself to take more photos of makeup looks that I make, upload them, and update this blog more often. :)
Btw, I’m changing this blog’s url from facepaintsandblushes.tumblr.com to cereshelga.tumblr.com to reflect my name, because evidently, some of my clients and friends had a difficult time looking for it >_<”
(this blog is formerly facepaintsandblushes.tumblr)
My name is Cerz.
I love makeup. I love them on me. I love putting it on others. I like making things and people beautiful ^_^
I am a freelance makeup artist, and a writer for TV for a living.
This Tumblr site features my portfolio, personal cosmetics, cosmetics I want, looks I want, product reviews, lookbook posts, and all things makeup/fashion.
Ask me anything, too.
[Photos are mine and friends', unless stated otherwise. I may also post makeup products and looks taken from different sites.]

Me at work, for a good friend’s wedding. July 2nd.
-

This is me during a brainstorming session early today. Sometimes I get agitated not doing anything physical, so I put my arms to work and put makeup on as I think and speak. (No, it’s not actually ethical to do it in front of coworkers, but in my line of job, it’s fine =P)
I applied a little liquid foundation (Chanel Pro Lumiere, #50), powder (Chanel Natural Finish Pressed Powder), black eyeliner (SkinFood Choco Eye Liner Jam #1), and red lipstick (Chanel Rouge Hydrabase #45).
I didn’t put on any blush as that would overdo my just-at-work makeup. Mascara’s a no-need for me, either, as my thick eyeliner already created the impression that I had thick eyelashes. I just curled my lashes.
And then I take photos.

I am deeply sorry I haven’t been posting much lately. Been so busy with work, as usual, and the holidays (holy week, here in my country) deemed me unable to go online ‘cause of crappy internet connections.
How’s everyone been? Any requests, questions, or advice you want me to put up? My askbox is open :)
Hope all of you are doing great! =) Love y’all.

In case you noticed, I love wild, avant garde make-up. It’s my favorite.

If make-up does wonders to the face, smoking does the complete opposite.
As glamorous as smoking looks, it dries out the skin and creates awful wrinkles and creases especially in the eye area. This makes it difficult to apply make-up on.
I don’t even have to expound on the health risks cigarettes bring, do I?

To go on with my “Personal Favorite” list,here’s CHANEL Soft Touch Eyeshadow in Mahogany (51).
This is best for use in contouring the eyes, or even create a mild smoky-eyes.
On a regular day, I use this on my eyebrows with a small, flat, slanted brush. I prefer powder to fill my eyebrows than using eyebrow pencils so that it doesn’t look fake and drawn on. (Of course, you can use a grooming brush when you use pencils, but I want to save time.)
I also use this to line my eyes, too, during day time, using the same slanted brush.

Again, with the red lipstick =)

Red lipstick is the best. I recommend this for those who lack the time to apply a bunch of products on their faces when going out. It completes the look of simple white or black top and skinny jeans, and whatever footwear you have. Poof! Instant sexyness.
(Red lips of course would work best if you have a bright set of teeth. And a nice smile. I therefore recommend Crest whitestrips for maintenance =) )

I love smokey-eye makeup. Easiest for me to do. Most difficult to remove, though. O_o
