Makeup Inspiration: Sarah G. on Preview Magazine

Just like the next makeup junkie, I love taking inspirations from various looks seen on the glossy pages of magazines. It never ceases to amaze me how the makeup, outfits, editorials and even the personality tests (wink* wink*)  remain fun and fresh month after month after month.

Same goes with the year-end issue of Preview Magazine featuring über-talented Sarah Geronimo. Her overall look from the makeup to the sleek straight hair spells FIERCE. I must say Sarah is the best choice to cap off 2012 for Preview Magazine, which has had a string of gorgeous covers this year.

Speaking of which, please also check out my first Preview inspired look here.

From the moment I saw the cover, I immediately wanted to try and replicate the look - the slanted smoky blue eyes, contoured cheeks and soft pink lips.

Please take note that this is my own version and as much as I tried following every meticulous detail of the makeup, it will look different on me because the shape of my eyes, slant of my brows, skin tone, etc are not the same as Sarah's.

Fyi: It was my first time doing the the masking tape technique and it makes me giddy that I was able to pull it off quite nicely. #makeupgeek :-)
