C2C: A OOTD and the First Snow in Seoul

Hello

You probably don't know that I am currently in Seoul in a study abroad program. Anyways, today was the first day of snow in the city and for me its always a love/hate relationship thing. I slipped and fell, and hurt my toe. I did get beautiful pictures from the scenery and decided I wanted to share.

I also wanted to show my outfit of the day since I appear in one of the pictures.

What I am wearing:
- Coat: Zara Basics
- Beige Sweater: Forever 21 (bought it almost two years ago in a sale though)
- Light blue (T-shirt?): Street sale in Seoul
- Black Shirt: Zara Basics
- Plain black leggings with skirt attached: Street sale
- Boots: Ugg
- Necklace: Tous


I opted for a very natural barely there makeup look



How was the weather in your city today?

Let me know on the comments below

5 Best Black Eyeliners



Most makeup looks include using eyeliner and it is one of the most important parts of the a makeup look. I have tried almost every high end and drugstore eyeliner whether it is liquid, gel or pencil. These are the ones I recommend the most.

1.     MAC Fluid line Gel: This is the best eyeliner I have used so far. I always by different products to try them but I also end up back with this one. It can take you to the perfect smokey eye smudge, or to the perfect winged look. It is not perfect because there is still no perfect eyeliner. It is very black and durable.
2.     Palladio Waterproof Pencil: This is a waterproof pencil and I like this one a lot. Palladio is not known for their eye pencils but I truly believe this one is perfect. It is waterproof which makes the pencil last longer. It is very pigmented and glides on smoothly. I have one of these in almost every color.
3.     Milani: This pencil has it pros and cons, but made my list of best five eyeliners. It is very pigmented which is a huge plus. Plus it is the smoothest pencil there is. It does not smudge, but if you are looking to smudge it out, you should do it as soon as you apply it. The big con about this pencil for me is that it does not last. After some time the pigment will fade and it will smudge. It is still greatly priced and a great product
4.     Urban Decay 24/7: This liquid eyeliner is great for wings and coverage. It is also very black and like most liquid eyeliners this one does not irritate my eyes when I use them. It is long lasting but the line is most likely to get chipped or flaky sooner or later. But, in comparison to other liquid eyeliners it is great. Cons: pricey
5.     Revlon Colorstay Waterproof: If the palladio pencil did not work I would most definitely use this one. It is great and very similar to palladio. The difference between them both is that Colorstay fades away faster than the other.
Brands I would not suggest buying:
-L’oreal
-Maybelline
-Lancome
-Makeup Forever
- Covergirl
