Hola, senoritas!
Today I am going to show you my make up inspired by Tango team Argentina in World Cup 2014, since I saw the Brazil and Netherlands Inspired Make Up here and I was so excited to prepare my make up look that inspired from my favorite team; Argentina.
I have been supporting Argentina football team since I watched football firstly in 1994, when the World Cup was held in USA. My favorite player was the super striker Batistuta. He retired in 2005 at the age of 36. He has been one of the key players in Tango team with 56 international goals in 78 caps. Too bad that during his performance, Argentina wasn't able to reach the World Cup trophy. Now, almost 10 years after and who would have not known Lionel Messi? He's one of the world's rising stars yet very down to earth and humble in personality. Right now I am still supporting Argentina and for you who didn't follow the World Cup recently, I am proudly telling you that Argentina went into semi-final round against Netherlands.

The major colors of Argentina national football team exactly looks like the flag, the light blue and the white. In international tournament, every team has first uniform and second uniform, or as we call it home and away uniform. While Argentina's first uniform reflects its flag; the blue-white vertical stripped with white pants (actually I prefer their previous uniform with black pants), their second uniform is darker blue with some white stripes on the chest and shoulder. This combination that would inspire me to create my make up look today.
For this EOTD, I am using:
Sephora Pret-a-Porter palette in blue nuance (they have other 5 palettes in green, pink, brown, black and purple). In this individual palette, it consists of 4 eyeshadows, 2 lipglosses and 1 blush on. The blue palette has the colors that I wanted to make this look. I used primer underneath to make the color more intense. I applied the white color all over my lid, applied the turquoise blue on the inner corner to the middle, and create a crease cut with the dark blue. Blend it well. For the outer water line, I used the medium blue, along with TheBalm Mary Lou on the inner corner. I couldn't find my silvery white eye pencil (my daughter must have played with it and lost it) thus I was using the Mary Lou as back up.
For eyeliner, I currently fall in love with Mizzu. It's cheap, easy to use, super pigmented and long lasting without smudging and budging. Go to Lazada to get it with free delivery!
For cheeks, I also fall in love with MUA Blusher Shade No. 1. It is a very soft, cool toned pinky blush that will make your cheeks flush so natural. Like the pinkish tone that appears when you pinch your cheeks. It looks healthy, gives dewy finish but with no shimmer or glitter. This one's also cheap, even the cheapest blusher that I own so far. If you are interested, I bought it here. In this picture, I was using Wet 'n Wild Megalast Lipstick in Rose Bud, for the coral-ish pink that will suit to my white-blue uniform. I was wearing unbranded falsies and X2 Ice No. 8 Nude Eyes in Grey.
So, what do you think of this look? Do you have favorite team in World Cup? ~xoxo~
