Since last year, I've been seeing a lot of ladies
wearing the drunk blush look or the Igari makeup look. And what's not to love
about it? It makes your skin appear youthful and glowing, much like a baby.
This trend actually originated from Japan and was started by Japanese makeup artist Shinobu Igari. Owing
to its Japanese roots, I'm creating the hangover makeup look using a
bestselling Japanese cosmetics brand: Canmake.
These are the products I used to get the hangover
makeup look:
1. Base: Canmake Juicy Glow Base
I applied Canmake Juicy Glow Base on my entire face to
add moisture and luster to my skin. This base makeup offers light coverage. You
can wear it alone on days where you don't want to wear makeup or under your
power or liquid foundation for a smoother finish. What's great about it is it
has SPF 40 sun protection and oil-controlling powder to prevent your makeup
from melting. I got the shade Beige to even out my skin tone.
If you have pink undertones, I recommend the pink variant.
2. Foundation: Canmake UV Silky Fit Foundation
For extra coverage, I used the UV Silky Fit Powder
Foundation. I applied this all over my face using a damp sponge to avoid a
cakey look. My shade here is 02 Ochre. It's an oil-controlling powder with SPF
30, formulated without fragrance and mineral oils. Coverage is light to medium
with the wet application. This would be great for women with oily to
combination skin.
3. Concealer: Canmake Cover and Stretch Concealer
To conceal my dark circles, I dotted the Canmake Cover
and Stretch Concealer in an inverted V shape under my eyes. I also drew a
straight line on the bridge of my nose, from the area between my brows to the
tip of my nose to highlight it. This creamy concealer offers medium to full
coverage. My shade here is natural beige. This is great for covering spots,
too. It's creamy and easy to blend.
4. Setting Powder: Canmake Marshmallow Powder
I set my foundation and concealer using the Canmake Marshmallow
Finish Powder. It is a super smooth and soft pressed powder to help keep your
makeup in place. You can use this alone if you want to prevent oil and shine
throughout the day. This powder is so gentle that you don't need a make-up
remover to take it off when used alone. It also contains ingredients that are
beneficial to the skin like moisturizing aloe vera, rosemary, and chamomile
extracts. It has toning and emollient ingredients.
My shade here is MO
Matte Ochre. This powder is a bestseller and has received positive
reviews online.
5. Contour: Canmake Shading Powder
I lightly brushed the Canmake Shading Powder in (01)
Danish Brown to create a natural-looking shadow on the upper part of my
forehead, my prominent jaws, and from the base of my temples down to the hollow
part of my cheeks. I also used this powder to draw a line from my eyebrows down
each side of my nose to make it appear thinner and straighter. It is easy to
blend and it comes with a flat brush. Notice how it looks like a cute chocolate
bar :-)
6. Eyeshadow: Canmake Perfect Multi-Eyes
I'm keeping things natural by choosing a neutral
all-matte eyeshadow in (01) Rose Chocolat. This eyeshadow has reddish shades of
brown. The packaging comes with a quick tutorial to create a simple eyeshadow
look. I applied the second to the lightest shade all over my lids, the middle
brown shade on the crease, and the two dark brown shades on the outer corners
of my eyes. Pigmentation is light to medium. I recommend using an eye base or
concealer to intensify the colors and keep them in place.
7. Eyeliner: Canmake Strong Eyes Eyeliner
I drew a thin line on my upper lashline using the Canmake
Strong Eyes Eyeliner in Sweet Brown. It's a liquid felt-tip liner that's super
easy to use. Liquid eyeliners are perfect for creating a neat line without
leaving any gaps between your lashes. The color is not too solid and while it's waterproof, it's easy to remove with your regular makeup remover.
8. Blush: Canmake Cream Cheek
Now to achieve the drunk blush look, I picked the
Canmake Cream Cheek in Clear Red Heart. I dotted the color thrice on the apples of my
cheeks and just a small amount under the eyebags and over my nose to get the
drunk blush look. This is a gel-type blush that would work for both oily and
dry skin types. It is not sticky at all!
Canmake Cream Cheek blushes are a
global bestseller because it is pigmented, easy-to-use, and natural-looking. It
just gives you a healthy flush every time you use it.
9. Highlighter: Canmake Cream Highlighter
I can't complete a glowing makeup look without a
highlighter. Still keeping it natural though, so I picked the Canmake Cream
Highlighter in Luminous Beige. This has a golden color that adds a subtle sheen
to your skin. I applied this on the upper part of my cheeks and my T-zone. This
illuminating highlighter is great for everyday makeup. Application is smooth
and the texture of this cream highlighter is light and non-sticky.
10: Lips: Canmake Stay on Balm Rouge
I picked Canmake Stay on Balm Rouge (03) Tiny Sweet Pea for my lips. This is a pure red color with a transparent, semi-glossy finish. This is actually a tinted balm and once it wears off, it leaves a red stain on your lips. You can take it off at the end of the day using your makeup remover. This is a lightweight, slightly plumping, non-sticky lip balm with UV protection.
THE RESULT:
Overall, I'm happy not just with this drunk blush
look, but with Canmake products in general. Canmake products are relatively
affordable, they didn't irritate my skin, and both pigmentation and performance
are good. They also come in cute packaging. Try them now and see for yourself. :-)
