Hello everyone, I managed to pick up a bottle of Chanel Perfection Lumiére while I was in Perth. I have just started playing with this foundation and here’s a look with it on. What do you think? I have also used two Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eye Colors for this look. For more information about these cream eyeshadows, click here and you can also find my review plus swatches of the entire range here.
Nail colour by Dior – 704 Nirvana.
For face: I applied a thin layer of Clinique Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief to moisturize my skin prior to applying Chanel Perfection Lumiére Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Makeup SPF 10. Conceal and highlight my dark circles and parts of the face with Chanel Éclat Lumiére Highlighter Face Pen before setting the face with Chanel Vitalumiére Éclat Comfort Radiance Compact Makeup SPF 10. I have also used a tiny amount of Shiseido Luminizing Satin Face Color in WT 905 to enhance certain features (forehead, chin, cheek bones and brow bones).
For eyes: I went in straight with Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eye Color in BR 709 Sable all over the lids and blend it up towards the crease. Layer on for more intensity and I did just that along the lids. Apply a little Sable along the lower lash line as well. After I have completed blending Sable, I gently pat a little GD 803 Techno Gold to the centre of my lids. Blend edges of Techno Gold with the brush I used for applying Sable.
Apply some brown eyeliner to the upper lash line. I also applied some MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil in Gilded White to the inner corners of my eyes, blend and carefully press a small amount of Illamasqua Pure Pigment in Beguile on top. Apply mascara and some false eyelashes and the eyes are done.
For cheeks & lips: As this is a very simple day look, I went for something natural – just to add a pop of colour to my face. I have chosen Shiseido Luminizing Satin Face Color in RD 401. For lips, I went for Laneíge Styling Romantic Lip Duo in SYR34 Coral Beige for that natural, polished finish.
Thank you for reading.

Sable looks so good with Techno Gold! Oh dear perhaps I need Sable to complete my collection 🙂 Great look Joey!
Thank you Jacqueline =)
Your amazing collection of Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eyeshadows are to die for!!
I need more too and they will be releasing 3 or 4 new shades for SS12..
I cannot wait..
They are? I’m looking forward to it. I would love to see your entire mu collection. I bet it must be marvellous.
I have no details yet but I think they are =)
I don’t have a large MU collection to be honest because I have been moving around and “throwing” is my hobby..
Wished I have kept some older pieces tho..
Great look – love the nails!
Thank you Jamilla =)
Wow. You always look great but your skin looks absolutely gorgeous!! It looks like you have perfect skin.
Hi,
Thank you for your kind comments, I don’t have perfect skin I am afraid..
Hi Joey, what brush did you use to apply and blend the Shiseido eye creams?
Hi Hannah,
I normally use Sephora IT Brush 235 to apply and blend =)
I’m loving the perfection lumiere on you, gives you an airbrushed look 🙂 how does it hold up in this humidity?
Hi Jasmine,
Thank you =)
I have yet to put this foundation on a test, haven’t had the time yet.
But it held up pretty well throughout the day in air-conditioned environments =)
love your nail color! may I know what eyelash glue are you using and would you recommend it?
Thank you =)
I only use DUO eyelash glue and have been using it for years..
Hi Joey (:
Can I ask how do you make the area between your nose walls and cheeks look flawless?
Cos without makeup, that area often looks dark.
Am wondering how do you make it look like its all so smooth and fair at that area?
Thanks (:
Hi Stephanie,
Thank you for your kind comments =)
The secret is a highlighter pen and some concealer!!
