"Just when I thought I had it all together my make up decided to fall apart on my arrival to Singapore."
So I had a VERY long trip to Singapore, (around 24 hours to be precise) and somewhere in the world of airport luggage (Toy-Story airport vibes) my makeup bag decided it needed more cushioning than the cashmere sweaters it was wrapped in, and so, the majority of my pressed powders, eyeshadows, contour and blushers ended up falling apart when I needed them most - for FASHION WEEK.
Thank goodness on the the first day my girl Iman had my back and saved my life but THEN I received the BEST gift from Inglot Singapore. Not only did they replace my much needed broken products but almost my WHOLE make up bag.
I played around with their best sellers and created some looks for Singapore fashion week but sadly due to my packed schedule I was unable to properly photography these looks for you. So here they are, in their full recreated glory;
I ended up using this as a base for all my looks. It's the Perfect hypoallergenic primer for all skin types and makeup finishes. Absorbs excess facial oil(which I suffered from in Singapore) and scatters light, giving all skin types a matte look and silky smooth finish. Use to prolong the life of your foundation, turning your skin into the perfect blank canvas.
I also found a substitute for my foundation during my time in singapore. This tinted moisturiser has rich moisturizing properties, adds subtle colour and evens out the skin tone. Enriched with Coenzyme Q10, saffron extract, and vitamins C, E, and F. HD pigments ensure an illuminating and soft focus effect. Perfect for those who are looking for a very natural effect of healthy, glowing, and hydrated skin.
In my palette I have the Blush Illuminator in shade 203
You can pick combination of blush and illuminator. Matte face blush is ideal for defining selected parts of the face, while the illuminator provides delicate highlights. A silky formula enables easy application for a long-lasting fresh and subtle look.
Colour correcting Four Colour Pressed Powder shade 34.Setting, concealing baked powder. The pressed powder contains four lightly concealing colours that mixed together have the effects of :
- improving and revitalising the complexion, concealing redness and skin discolouration through light diffusers and setting make-up improving its hold. It is silky to the touch with a natural and radiant finish. It a very important component to any make up bag.

Pearl Eyeshadow shade 422 (the darker one) and Matte Eyeshadow shade 351 (which I used as a base for all my looks). Fully matte eye shadow that contains special silicones and treated pigments. It boasts high lubricity and a silky touch combined with easy, smooth, long lasting, and crease resistant application. Oil free formula provides the ideal matte finish and intense color.
Aquastic - water-based cream eye shadows will ensure a long lasting effect with a subtle or stronger shine depending on the application. Even a minimal amount provides strong coverage. Crease and smudge proof. They're available in 10 ocean shades, ranging from silvers and golds to rose, blue and green.
I LOVE these highly concentrated loose coloured powders that range from subtle to ultra-intense effects depending on application. The product contains sponge gourd oil and almost 90% pure pigment. Can be mixed with DURALINE to create liquid forms of all pigment colours.
High intensity pigmented liner provide ideal coverage. It comes in a range of rich colours, and provide vibrance and longivity after just one application. The creamy and delicate long lasting formula dries to a longlasting, smudge proof, and crease proof finish- With my busy schedule, I can vouch for that.
Maximizes the volume of the eyelashes, making them extra black with a delicate glow. The clump-free formula allows to reach a desired effect in just one sweep. Smudge proof formulation ensures the mascara will stay where it belongs, but is easily removable. The brush is the perfect size for my deep set eyes.
HD Lip Tint Matte is a trendy lip product that will provide full coverage and a silky matte finish. The product ensures a long lasting effect, does not smudge and is transfer resistant. A handy little sponge makes the lip tint easy to apply, while intense colours will compliment any makeup or skin tone. These SMELL amazing too. They're available in 10 colours, ranging from subtle nudes to classic reds and darker statement shades.
A beautiful sheer lip gloss, I love that it's presented in packaging resembling a test tube as a nod to the company’s passion for science. Vitamin E, treated pigments and breathable film formers moisturize the lips while a long lasting formula ensures longevity.
This look was out of my comfort zone because I had never experimented with colours that weren't brown hues, I had also never tried wearing eyeshadow under my eyes (as silly as that sounds) because I have huge eye lids and have always been conscious about accentuating them.

I would have never imagined I would be applying pink to my eyelids at twenty three years of age, but here I am, and here you are... watching me do it, haha. But in all honesty how amazing is this colour? I never thought I could've pulled it off but I'm completely in love with it. The lip colour was especially something I freaked out about, new favourite? I think so, I'm not quite brave enough to try the purple just yet.

This look is so much closer to my usual evening look, I love doing it and trying it with different products. Subtle browns and golds are always my go-to's.

I have began using these @sminkalondon brushes because my skin has been extra sensitive these past few months - even after cleaning my natural bristle brushes every week. So I decided to switch to VEGAN make up brushes since they are known to be better on the skin and for those with allergies (AKA ME). Not only are these gentle on my skin but they come in more variations and sizes which means I have everything I need. They're also not HUGE like many of the brands out there, they fit perfectly into my small makeup bag. How beautiful is the rose gold?
You can get yours here.
Many thanks to @inglotsg for saving my face during Singapore Fashion week and for saving my non-experimental life back in London.
