Obagyaru Meet #2 [Photo Dump]

I was on an indefinite hiatus, but this time it was mandatory to make sure I could recover from burnout. However, I promised myself to stop being flaky with IRL friends, so I am trying my best to keep up and plan more outings. 

I have two new gal friends from my town! They are Godsent for sure! We call ourselves obagyaru because we're the oldest in the local community. 

We went to Tea N More, which we want to turn into "our" spot! We all agree we need third spaces. 

I took my sister with me, and we ate some takoballs (lol sounds funnier that way). I also brought my son, Switch, and some Popteen mags!

Me waiting for Ning and Melly! BTW Ning made a blog, so excited to read her! I'm harassing pushing ppl into opening their own blogs and ditching SNS!

We all got food and a drink, but the cheesy fries were too cheesy, so my stomach killed me a bit afterwards (ಥ﹏ಥ)

I tried to help Melly with her makeup, but I feel like my attempt was not good :( Next time we promised to bring more makeup and stuff to go all in! 

My make for the date!

I also got new pressons (´ ∀ ` *)

We looked so cute! Even for a casual weekday meet! 

I really loved our outfits!

I hope we get to do more casual hangouts for sure! I also wish for our group to grow and keep the good vibes going ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆

July Inspo

 

Let's go over some stuff I have been loving lately! 

Bright undereye + blush combo

I just love how it looks in all skin tones. I also think this technique goes super well with gyaru, too! I might try a more intense look for next week's MARINA concert at SD Pride Festival! <3

Baby tee + layered skirt combo

Is there a name for this style? It would be something you see with Tralala coords, as well as more Popteen-like looks. Anyway, I realized I love this combo and that it looks good on me. It's so easy to style up and down, and it's clearly a base for many gyaru looks.

zebra+pink+black combo

Even if it's agejo or more casual, I loooove zebra print this season (and all seasons). I know polka dots were the thing, but do not leave my black-and-white pattern behind.

This combo for amekaji lives in my mind rent-free!

I feel like it's a more summer-friendly look for Amekaji. It's a rare combo, since I've always seen the baggie boyish pants. I've been kind of sporty lately thanks to the World Cup, haha. It would be a fun way to style my jerseys.

2009 Popteen

To me, the epitome of girlyness was this year! I will die on this hill. Popteen was not necessarily a gyaru mag, but my goal is to collect all of them for this year. So far, I have February and March, lol, 10 more to go?

Straight Hair with bangs

My hair cannot make up its mind. Both my parents have curly AF hair, but I have really in between sad hair, lol. So since I cannot take the time and effort to curl it, I have been looking on completely flat iron hair styles. Also any low effort things I can be made into part of my personal routine are welcomed. I need to avoid any burnout triggers.

Phone Blog: Daily Makeup+More food!

Hello!٩(ˊ〇ˋ*)و

Today's post is more of a soft daily blog? Today we had a potluck at work, because we are celebrating a project we have been working on for quite a while. 

I made some soy meat ceviche, which everyone loved. I'm so happy lately that I get compliments on my cooking.(*ﾉ∀`*)

We had Thai food, Mexican food and Korean since our staff is pretty diverse. We had a nice chat until it was time to go finish our daily tasks.

During the day I was chatting with the GyaruGo gals and I saw that Chio made a pretty amazing make for everyday wear. I got really inspired to try as well since I brought my cosmetic bag to the office. Everyone helped and gave me specific directions. (♡°▽°♡)

This was the result for today! We concluded that I need a thinner eyeliner so my hanging lid doesn't eat it up as much. Also a liquid one is best for thin wrinkled lids kkkkkkk.

I think it's good enough for daily make with no cl and probably no lashes... (however I'm wearing really tiny ones from Daiso).

Also, tear bags are a must and they aid with it looking more gyaru-like. Of course I need a better pulse and cleanliness... but it serves its purpose.

My outfit was comfy: 

Top-Tralala//Skirt-Uniqlo//Shoes- Dreamly

(My mom made fun of my skirt because it was too long TT_TT)

After work I went to get some dinner with my mom and sis... of course I had a delicious margarita. I loooove tequila and agave flavor is the best! (っ˘ڡ˘ς)

I need to purchase some tequila to keep at home since it's the only liquor I can handle. I can't wait for Thanksgiving so I can host it myself with nice cocktails.

ヽ(o´∀`)ﾉ♪♬On to some wishes and inspo from March '09 Popteen ヽ(o´∀`)ﾉ♪♬ I love this year, cuz there are so many cute trends for colder months! To me it was one of the best years for gyaru (my opinion).

I need more spacious cute bags!

I see some deco in my future! I have my digital camera that needs some love (ノ°∀°)ノ⌒･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*☆

Some purikura ideas... since I'm a lil awkward to go to them by myself lately... would it be time to hit R1? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


Now is time to call it a day. I'm so happy to be able to post often, my brain is cooperating. 

Have a lovely weekend

Tralala+LL Gets~♡◇♧♤

Hi! These days are weird, the time change has me all weird and in a low mood (；￣Д￣) Today I did some makeup while at work to lift my mood and used some natural lashes from Daiso. 

However, I would like to try more gyaru and I don't feel it without the proper lenses. I got a pair from Alie and I hope they come in soon! 

I'll review them for you as soon as I'm able to get them. I'm waiting for other accessories from Alie, nothing too crazy but definetly cute things ☆ ～('▽^人)

Yestersay I got a package from Mercari, so that cheered me up. I had to wait for FedEx to deliver again, since they need a signature and no one was home.

I bought 4 pieces, but not everything fits me 

( ´ ▿ ` )

This top from Tralala is so comfy and versatile! It's also never been worn, it still has the tags on.

Cute detail on the back.

The travel bag is everything I've ever dreamed!

(*´▽`*) so happy!

Cute point #1

Cute point #2

I love bears... pink bears ( ´(ｴ)ˋ ) nonetheless!

Then the sad part... these pieces did not fit. However the skirt could possibly be modified to fit me. I am not sure it's a good idea (ᓀ ᓀ)

It's sad because it was my plan to wear for the BTS concert ｡ﾟ･ (>﹏<) ･ﾟ｡ because my outfit was inspired by the colors of BT21's Koya since my bias is Kim Namjoon 💜 

I'll have to think about a different outfit now ヽ(`⌒´メ)ノ Thanks LL (just kidding, it's thanks to my a$$).

I'll figure it out... in the meantime I'll get going and talk to you later!

XOXO-

My makeup routine/tutorial?

Today's post is about a walk through my makeup routine. I think it would be helpful to look back at it and see my progress.

This eye look is different than my usual one, but as I mentioned in previous posts I wanted to explore different eyeshapes.

I'm happy with this droop! So please stay to see the process.

Clean face, hydrated with whatever moisturizer I found in my room + ELF Jelly primer for a dewey finish.

Also, put my contacts in before, because I can't see w/o them.

Lighter tone concealer to brighten high-points and cover up darker spots. I didn't use foundation since I like to keep some skin texture.

Blended concealer + slapped on brows thinly. Also added a glow milk/liquid highlighter.

Powder blush and contour. Connected nose contour to brows.

Neutral eyeshadow to mark tearbags and lift the eye. (Lol I look like a red panda).

Namida bukuro helps to achieve cuteness and helps a lot in gyaru makeup.

My shit eyeliner was giving up on me at this point. I added pink to my mobile lid+also drooped the eyeliner to achieve max cuteness. I like to tie-line my eyes with black pencil.

For max shine, added a foiled eyeshadow on the tear bags.

I added my lashes of choice. Today I chose these spikier ones. For the lower area I followed the droop and connected the inner lash to the starting point of my iris. 

Eyeshape closeup for reference!♡ For personal taste, I like to leave open the other corner. Now looking at the photo, I would clean up the tear duct area, but my liner was giving up on me.

＼＼\\٩(๑`^´๑)۶//／／

So, that is pretty much a go to makeup I have started to enjoy. I'm yet to find a look for everyday, but this was make in 30 min. What do you think? I personally believe that it would look much better with brown lenses. Something to look upon for my next purchases!

I have no more fotos with this look cuz I'm a dumdum and forgot to take more ( `ε´ )/

So yeah... bye?

XOXO-
