LOOKBOOK — 5 Looks feat. BH Cosmetics Trendy in Tokyo

Hi again dolls!

Yet another lookbook! I am aware that it is no longer summer but my absence has delayed many of my posts. I have been in a creative rut for what seems like, all year. Creating has been hard for me, and now that I want to create once again, I seem to have less time. But I’m not here to complain, I’m here to show you some looks I was able to get done using a very colorful palette.

Here is the palette I used for this lookbook:

I have also created a lookbook for a different BH Cosmetics palette, Summer in St. Tropez, check it out here.

Look #1: Cotton Candy Sky

This look was inspired by one of Jodi’s (a brash attitude) Instagram posts from over the summer. It was a beautiful sky shot and it looked like cotton candy, and I knew I had to do a look inspired by it. The following shot was with flash because it was so late in the day. It is also my second* attempt at this look.

The photo above is in natural lighting but I wasn’t pleased with how it looked. The bottom photo is my first attempt at this look, and as you can see from the photos above, I improved it a bit, but now I’m not sure which attempt I love more LOL.

Here is that Instagram post from Jodi:

I have already posted this look on my own Instagram, so if you follow me over there, you probably already saw it. 🙂

Look #2: Warm Rainbow

Of course I always do rainbow and sunset looks when I have these specific colors in a palette, and I couldn’t help but create one this time around. I didn’t anticipate that I’d be adding white eyeliner to it, otherwise I would have made the eyeshadow spread out more in a wing style rather than around the eye, if that makes sense.

Shades Used: Kyoto, Emoji, Sushi, Karaoke, Wasabi, Tempura, Bamboo

I really love how white eyeliner looks against these colors, I want to recreate this and make it better now that I have an idea/vision in my head.

Look #3: Rose Red

I only have one good photo from this look. I fell in love with this, I am so eager to do it again 🙂

Look #4: Red-Plum Double Cut-Crease

I had another idea of doing a purple and red look, and this palette had both of those colors. I didn’t want to do what I’ve been doing all along, and I wanted to practice cut creases and winged liner but with eyeshadow. This turned out a lot better than I had hoped.

I also really love the inner corner being a different color (Wasabi), I think that makes the look really stand out.

Look #5: Red Rose Gradient

Another look featuring pretty much the same shades as look #3 because I wanted to try another kind of cut crease look, but the shades kind of ended up blending together so I kind of consider it a fail, although my husband really liked it.

I really dislike the glue I used for this look, it got really thick and sticky (not in a good way), so it ruined the lashline. (>.<) Overall though, I like the red shade on the outer-v.

For the most part I’ve been pleased with this palette. I have been having a hard time with the cooler toned shades being patchy, but I’ve been trying to find ways around that. I have started taking pictures of all my creations and have decided I also want to show you my “scrapped” looks, so eventually you will see some of those here. For now, this is it.

Do you like seeing complicated or simpler looks?
