				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So JCP decided to host another prom fashion show and sponsored by JCP designers, JCP Salon and Sephora inside JCP at Glendale Galleria and I was glad to see a familiar face amongst the models. So here are a few pictures of my amazing models strutting the runway in gorgeous gowns under $100 each at JCP and hair provided by our amazing JCP Salon.

<p>Our next model is her sister Cheyanne and I used the LORAC Pro Palette and eyeshadow primer on her with Too Faced Chocolate Soliel Bronzer and NARS Tao blush with their new satin lip pencils.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With this rainy, gloomy weather, it&#8217;s time to bring back the vampy makeup of winter! It&#8217;s been so long since I posted a blog on this website due to technical difficulties but its finally back! More photoshoots and makeup looks and random blogs to come!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/3912.2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1540" alt="3912.2" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/3912.2.jpg" width="864" height="648" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>FACE</strong></p>
<p>Primer- Tarte BB Primer in Light, I got a sample from work<br />
-this is my new favorite primer, it&#8217;s a primer, SPF, BB cream all in one with a matte finish!<br />
Foundation- CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous liquid foundation in 845 warm beige<br />
-I am still trying this foundation out since most youtubers have been raving about it with its full matte covergae, long lasting power, SPF and primer built                                  in along with the option of using it as a concealer as well<br />
Concealer- Benefit Fake Up conditioning stick concealer in Medium<br />
-newest concealer from Benefit and I got it in my gratis from work and hands down it&#8217;s definitely the best concealer because it&#8217;s doesn&#8217;t cake and it doesn&#8217;t show                       flaky skin peek through because of the conditoning Vitamin E and appleseed oil makes it so blendable and hydrating that you can wear it as a coverup alone<br />
Powder- Bare Minerals Pressed Foundation Powder in Medium Beige<br />
Bronzer- NARS Laguna<br />
Blush- Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso<br />
Highlighter- NARS Illuminator in Super Orgasm<br />
Setting Spray- Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>EYES</strong><br />
Primer- Urban Decay Primer Potion<br />
Eyebrows- MAKEUP FOREVER Aqua Brow in #25<br />
-my new favorite eyebrow product because it&#8217;s pigmented and waterproof and works great with my oily/combo skin type so my brows are awesome all day<br />
Eyeshadows- Makeup Geek single shadow in Homecoming<br />
NYX Single Matte Shadow in Skinny Dipping<br />
Inglot single matte shadow (hot pink, I don&#8217;t know the number)<br />
NO EYELINER<br />
Mascara- Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara<br />
<strong>LIPS</strong></p>
<p>Lipliner- Sephora pencil lipliner in #09 Pleasant Plum<br />
Lipstick- Sephora Rouge Cream Lipstick in Crush</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/3912.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1541" alt="3912" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/3912.jpg" width="864" height="1296" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here goes a little haul.</p>
<p>-Wonder Woman tin lunch box $11 Ebay- Yesterday was my first day of school and Tuesdays and Thursdays, I&#8217;m at school 8am til 7pm, so I need snacks and a cute little lunchbox to put them in.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1484" title="92112 (3)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-3.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>-Target &amp; Sephora- Neutrogena Makeup remover wipes $6, Milani eyebrow pencil $8, Sephora lip liner SANGRIA $12, 100 point perk Boscia blotters. I haven&#8217;t tried the eyebrow pencil yet, but I did swatch the lip liner in store and tried wiping it off and it seems to be long lasting.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1485" title="92112 (4)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-4.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1486" title="92112 (5)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-5.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1487" title="92112 (6)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-6.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p>-Revlon Just Bitten lipstain in CRAVE $10. I love this vampy yet colorful lip stain for fall!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1488" title="92112 (1)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-1.jpg" alt="" width="900" height="432" /></a></p>
<p>And Wednesday was my very last day working at the afterschool program so I had to say goodbye to all the amazing kids who brightened my day every day for the past two and a half years. I&#8217;m going to miss them so so much and the staff as well.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1489" title="92112 (2)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/92112-2.jpg" alt="" width="1202" height="576" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So it&#8217;s starting to look like a hectic week and it&#8217;s just beginning. School starts this week, work is going downhill and I&#8217;m trying to applying at other places and firing up my resumes and get them ready to send out.</p>
<p>However, here are two more sketches I did in the past two days and I&#8217;m on the mission on buying the fabric for the dress. Hope it will turn out amazing like the sketch!</p>
<p>The first is a light purple, satin loose feel fabric with a false collar and button up front.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/satintank.small_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1457" title="satintank.small" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/satintank.small_.jpg" alt="" width="322" height="650" /></a></p>
<p>The next one is my change up on the summer&#8217;s high low dress, but it consists a tiered skirt. It&#8217;s resembles a draped dress with an elastic waistband and a high low hemline.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/peplum.highlo.small_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1458" title="peplum.highlo.small" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/peplum.highlo.small_.jpg" alt="" width="595" height="775" /></a></p>
<p>And here is a mini review on a couple of products I&#8217;ve been trying out.</p>
<p>I got a lovely gift and it&#8217;s the amazing Urban Decay All Nighter Spray in the full size! I don&#8217;t even know the price of this but I know it&#8217;s expensive and I&#8217;ve been replacing my MAC&#8217;s Fix + Spray with this because it controls my oily skin so much better and it actually sets my makeup, especially my eyebrows so they never smear or smudge throughout the day and I wouldn&#8217;t have to touch up on them, so this product is amazing! So once I run out, I&#8217;m getting my hands on another one instead of the MAC&#8217;s Fix+Spray.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/91712-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1463" title="91712 (2)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/91712-2.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>Next and last is the Loreal True Match liquid foundation in W4 Natural Beige and it&#8217;s a color match for me because there is such a wide variety of shades and colors for different skin types for just $8. It&#8217;s pretty light weight compared to my Neutroguena liquid foundations and it has a higher SPF.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/91712-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1464" title="91712 (1)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/91712-1.jpg" alt="" width="864" height="576" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do you do when your AC at home is broken, you go to the mall and hit up every sale they have! So here is a haul from Saturday from MakeupGeek online, Ulta (their 3 week sale), Sephora, LUSH, and Bath&amp;Body.</p>
<p><strong>First from MakeupGeek store oneline </strong><br />
<a href="http://www.makeupgeek.com/store/">http://www.makeupgeek.com/store/</a></p>
<p>-Beauty Blender the duo pack which was 2 for $24 so I bought one for myself and the other for a friend, here is a link her for hair and makeup facebook below. I used the beauty blender for the first time today and it&#8217;s such a light application for my foundation so I need to find different ways of using this.<a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Quendie-Hair-Makeup-Design/124891074319179?ref=ts"></p>
<p>http://www.facebook.com/pages/Quendie-Hair-Makeup-Design/124891074319179?ref=ts</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1435" title="9912 (1)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-1.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>-Second thing from MakeupGeek was their new gel liner in POISON, a deep red which was $8. I wanted a different colored gel liner for a pop of color, too bad I didn&#8217;t buy this in the summer.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1436" title="9912 (2)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-2.jpg" alt="" width="1296" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>-Last from MakeupGeek was NYX&#8217;s popular Jumbo Eye Pencil in MILK $7. Every beauty guru raves about this white jumbo eye pencil, and I bought a cream colored cream eyeshadow thinking it would have the same effect, but once I tried this MILK jumbo eye pencil, nothing compares. I use it as a base for brighter or lighter eyeshadows so they will show up better on my lid, the only thing I&#8217;ve been having trouble with this product is that it doesn&#8217;t blend so well.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1437" title="9912 (3)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-3.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Next stop was Ulta for their 3 week sale! </strong></p>
<p>I came for Real Technique brushes, which they promised they would stock up on, but I don&#8217;t think they did.</p>
<p>-First is the Schwarzkopf GOT 2b fat-tastic instant collagen infusion thickening plumping mousse $6 that I&#8217;ve see Charis, a beauty guru on Youtube CharismaStar. I&#8217;m always on the lookout for hair products that promise volume and actually deliver. My hair is very fine, and straight and never holds a curl so since it won&#8217;t hold a curl, I might as well give it some volume because that&#8217;s all I can do to it besides tying it in a bun all day. So I haven&#8217;t tried this mousse yet, but if you watch Charis on Youtube and she said it gave her hair volume, then I&#8217;m going to try it.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the link to Charis on Youtube <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/charismastar?feature=CAQQwRs%3D">http://www.youtube.com/user/charismastar?feature=CAQQwRs%3D</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1438" title="9912 (5)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-5.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>-Next from Ulta is an Urban Decay kit that includes the professional size original Potion Primer, the 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in ZERO, and the Big Fatty Mascara along with the useful makeup kit bag all for $39. Always look closely for makeup kits, packages, deals, sales because it&#8217;s always better than buying products individually.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1439" title="9912 (6)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-6.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Next stop is Sephora! MY FAVORITE!</strong></p>
<p>-this brush was originally more than $7 but was on sale for $3, it&#8217;s a duo head flat eyeliner brush and a fluffy blending brush.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-7.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1440" title="9912 (7)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-7.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p>-then the OCC Lip Tar, I&#8217;m pretty sure this one is in the color QUEEN, a medium, little darker than medium red, but it doesn&#8217;t say anywhere on the package or the product but it was $16 and it&#8217;s the most opaque, pigmented lip product ever! It&#8217;s my new favorite makeup product for fall. OCC lip tars are amazing and I can&#8217;t really describe what they do so your just going to have to see for yourself. It&#8217;s between a concentrated lipstick and a lip stain which is not sticky at all that dries matte and a little goes a long, long, long way because all you need is the tiniest bead size and it covers your lips and more.</p>
<p>Here is a video from Youtube describing lip tars<a href=" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xjfdReltns"> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xjfdReltns</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-8.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1441" title="9912 (8)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-8.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>-Last product from Sephora was actually a 100 point perk and it&#8217;s NARS Tinted Moisturizer in MEDIUM.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-9.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1442" title="9912 (9)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-9.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Last stop was LUSH and Bath&amp;Body </strong></p>
<p>-From LUSH I bought my boyfriend an amazing smelling soap called DEMON IN THE DARK, that has cloves and apple juice, which I think he was eyeing and for some reason, I always buy him and his family soaps, hand sanitizers and stuff.</p>
<p>-From Bath&amp;Body were their 5 for $5 hand sanitizers for my sister and me. I got the ones in CRANBERRY HARVEST, FRESHLY PICKED STRAWBERRIES and FRESHLY PICKED POMEGRANATES.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-10.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1443" title="9912 (10)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-10.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p>Last but not least, my outfit of the day which was a dusty rose colored, high low hemline, flowy dress from Forever 21 ($15), an old braided brown belt, and some gladiator sandals because it was extremely hot today!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1444" title="9912 (4)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9912-4.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mini Ulta Haul from their special 3 week sales from September 1st until the 22nd!</p>
<p><strong>NYX Cream Blush in GLOW</strong> ($6, Ulta) is a gorgeous barbie doll pink and I love having cream blushes rather than powder because it lasts longer throughout the day. After applying it with my fingers to my checks after foundation, I find it a little bit difficult to blend out.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1425" title="9512 (1)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-1.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1426" title="9512 (2)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-2.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><strong>NYX Super Skinny Marker in CARBON BLACK</strong> ($7 Ulta) is the liquid eyeliner pen that I&#8217;ve been looking for. I&#8217;ve swatched it and tried running it under water and rubbing it and it does not come off until I use makeup remover and that&#8217;s amazing. The color isn&#8217;t as black as I would like it, but it&#8217;s a great liquid eyeliner.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1427" title="9512 (3)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-3.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1428" title="9512 (4)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-4.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Anastasia Brow Wiz in BRUNETTE</strong> ($20 Ulta) has been raved about by PixiWoo on Youtube and I decided to try it out because my original eyebrow pencil from Sephora Collection, doesn&#8217;t last all day and it smudges here and there because I have oily and combo skin. So I tried this eyebrow pencil once and it lasted all day and it&#8217;s also a different formula from the Sephora Collection one. The Anastasia Brow Wiz has a dryer formula but it goes on smoother oddly enough and it&#8217;s much more pigments and stays on longer with little smudging on my oily to combo skin.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1429" title="9512 (5)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-5.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1430" title="9512 (6)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-6.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>And here a quick outfit of the day picture from Saturday.</p>
<p>A sheer black blazer from Cotton On ($35), over a simple white tank top from Forever 21 ($3), my PacSun ripped jeans (I don&#8217;t remember the price) and my vampy makeup look with my hair in a simple bun.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-7.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1431" title="9512 (7)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9512-7.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="517" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Labor Day! It feels so good taking a 3 day weekend and sleeping in. This is how I spent my Labor Day weekend, posting makeup looks because that&#8217;s mainly what I do when I have free time! I play with my makeup and get different looks. I also made a different tab page on my website for makeup looks under EVERYTHING MAKEUP.</p>
<p>So here goes another look! The Vampy Red Lip for fall because I can&#8217;t wait for fall to start!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-11.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1416" title="9312 (1)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-11.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1417" title="9312 (2)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-2.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p>Products used for this look.</p>
<p>-FACE was just my Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer in NUDE and my Rimmel Stay Matte powder over</p>
<p>-EYES mainly was the Balm&#8217;s NUDE TUDE palette with SELFISH over the lid and SEXY lightly in the outer corner and SASSY in the inner corner with a lavender matte eyeshadow from Inglot blended in the crease<br />
-MAC BLACKTRACK gel liner into a small wing<br />
-Revlon Grow-luscious mascara</p>
<p>-LIPS are two lipsticks from MAKEUP FOREVER, I started off with my sample N45 but it was too sheer and so I added my MAKEUP FOREVER 46 over and it looked amazing! I love this lipstick for fall!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1418" title="9312 (3)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-3.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1419" title="9312 (4)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-4.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="576" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1420" title="9312 (5)" src="http://www.ktruong.com/wp-content/upload/9312-5.jpg" alt="" width="576" height="432" /></a></p>
