Recreation of Sully by Makeup Crazy!

Hey guys!
Just a quick post today. I haven't done any looks and I've wanted to share this amazing recreation Lucy from Makeup Crazy has done of my Sully from Monsters University look!

 

Hasn't she done an amazing job! I found it so difficult to get the purple dots as bright as she has!

This was my original look

I absolutely love her recreation!

It makes me so happy when people like my looks enough to try them themselves, and I always love seeing them!

 

Thankyou so much for doing this Lucy, I love it! She's done some beautiful looks lately, and some also inspired by Disney! Definitely check her blog out!

Disney Series: Sully - Monsters University!

Hey guys! Sorry I've been MIA for a while! I've been staying with my boyfriend and although I've brought my laptop with me (with the intention to blog) we've been so busy that I haven't even had time to turn it on! I've missed it so much!
But better late than never! I've had this look to post since before the film came out, so it's a tad late but I love Sully so much, I have to show you guys! And I'm completely in love with the Katy Perry Color Pop for Eylure Lashes! So here's the look!

APOLOGIES FOR THE HUGE GAPS! Blogger is being and arse and I can't work out why the gaps between the photos and the text are so big! If anyone knows how to fit please help! Sorry!

I kept him bright but simple! My main inspiration for doing sully, were the lashes! They were the perfect colour blue so it had to be done!

HE'S JUST SO FLUFFY! I went to see the film last week and loved it! Personally I don't usually like prequels but this was amazing, I loved finding out about their pasts and how it all started! Sucker for Disney...
So anyway, here's the look, I used my Sleek Matts V1 and some shades from the V2. Also Aura from The Glinda palette by Urban Decay. I LOVE that duo shade - its amazing! Puts the finishing touches to just about every look I do!


The Spots were a bitch! haha It was a lot harder than I expected it to be! I cut up teeny tiny pieces of cello tape and stuck them on once I'd primed and gone over my lids with NYX jumbo eye pencil in milk. however then trying to fill them in was a nightmare! I used a sparkly E.L.F eyeliner and then used the brightest purple shade from Sleek Matts V1 palette on a lip brush (because it was the toughest) to apply the shadow.

I absolutely love these lashes, but the biggest problem for me was the seam! It was so thick it make it impossible to glue on properly and there's no way I could have worn them out which is gutting because they were so pretty! I'm definitely going to have to hunt for the same type of style, but without the blue layer, as I think that's what made it so thick!






















 Look how pretty they are! It makes me almost want to cry... the style is just so perfect! I ran the same colour blue which is on the majority of my lids, along my waterline and used the same purple under my eye.



















Still dying over the lashes... For my mascara I used Benefits They're Real - which I wasn't a huge fan of at first, but I've started using it over the top of my MAC plush lash and we're getting on alright at the moment... I love how it lengthens my lower lashes, makes me eyes look so much bigger!



So that's the look! I hope you guys like it, I'll try to get another look out soon! I haven't got any ready though so if anyone's got any ideas please let me know and I'll do my best for you! x x 

Sleek i-Divine i-Candy Palette Review!

Hey guys!
I know I'm a little behind on this, but I live on an Island, give me a break!
Sleek recently brought out a new Candy Collection which featured the most amazing i-Divine palette, containing 12 bright summery shades. The colours quickly caught my attention, like a child in a sweet shop, and there were only 2 palettes left! And I'm very fortunate enough to have a boyfriend who spoils me (yes, I know you're reading this Stewart!).

You can buy this palette for £7.99 by clicking right here!

The palette has a mixture of finishes including matte, shimmer and pearl. It has their standard matte black which seems to come in a lot of their palettes so I was a bit disappointed to see it's return but it's very appropriate name makes up for it in some ways I guess!

These are all the colours quickly swatched over Urban Decay Primer Potion under natural light

L-R Top to Bottom

Strawberry Sherbet - Is a matte Barbie-esque pink

Bon Bon - A very frosty metallic pink, under certain light it looks more lilac, very pigmented!

Parma Violet - A matte deep purple, very similar to Highness in the V2 palette, but a touch darker

Liquorice - Their standard matte black, not very pigmented :(

Blue Fizzle - A very stunning shimmery lilac blue

Aniseed - A frosty pinky red with amazing colour shimmer. LOVE this colour!

These were applied with NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk as the base. Look how beautiful Aniseed and Bon Bon are!

L-R Top to Bottom

These shades just had Monsters Inc. written all over them!

Apple Sour - Frosty, Shimmery green which looks blue under bright lights, almost creamy to touch!

Pear Drop - The only way to describe it, the colour of Mike Wazowski! Shimmery finish.

Flump - I don't remember flumps being anywhere near this colour but lets roll with it, a beautiful bright matte violet

Bubble Gum - I want to swim in it! A super bright, matte sky blue with amazing pigmentation!

Mint Cream - pretty much a pastel version of Apple Sour with only slight shimmer

Cream Soda - My favourite drink evarrr - An uber shimmery frost shade, very pigmented.

Swatched over NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk. I wanna go swimming in Bubble Gum! O_O

This palette is so gorgeous, I've already used it for my Monsters University looks, and I can't wait to see what I can come up with using Aniseed! It's such a stunning little colour, not one you'd find anywhere else on the high street!

 

Yes, some of the mattes can be quite chalky but that's what you get with such bright colours! I recommend applying your foundation etc AFTER you've done your eyes, because you do tend to get some fall out.

 

The more frosty, shimmery shades are very soft to touch, which makes them very pigmented so be careful on how much you use! A little goes a long way with these beauts!

 

Have you guys tried this palette? What do you think?

Disney Series! Mike Wazowski - Monsters University!

Hey Guys!
I cannot wait to go and see Monsters University when it comes out next week! I don't think I'm ever going to grow up... aaaand I don't care, I love Disney!
I've done two more looks for my Disney Series, Mike Wazowski and Sully, which I will post next week :)

So this is my Mike Wazowski look! I was a little worried when I started it... as he's basically just green! There wasn't a lot I could do but I tried my best! I wanted it to be a more wearable look as Sully isn't exactly an everyday look!

Look at the little cutie! Ahh I'm so excited for this film to come out! I think I'm going to be watching Monsters Inc everyday until next friday!

The Colours I used, were once again from the Sleek i-Candy and Ultra Matts V1 palettes. I can't get over the price of them, for the quality of the pigment is just amazing! £7.99 for 12 beautiful shadows!

My eyelashes are Eylure's #140 lashes. Very Dramatic! In the running as my new favourite big beautiful lashes! They are so dense it makes them look more real than fake, if you get what I mean... And the seem of the lashes is so thin it makes for easy application and comfortable to wear all night!

I love this look a lot more than I thought I would! Sometimes simplicity is better in my view! I used NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk as my base, and started with POW! and Cream Soda just off centre of my eyelid to give my eye a nice rounded look.
I blended Dragonfly (and a little Ferne from UMV2) into the outer corner, pulling it in and also a tiny amount in the inner corner to create a shadow effect. I then went over my entire lid (excluding the centre of Cream Soda) with Cricket and blended a lot!
Personally, I think Pear Drop is the perfect Mike Wazowski shade, so I used it to go over where I put Cricket, and blended it upwards with Apple Sour, eventually into POW! mixed with a little Cream Soda as my highlight.

For eyeliner, I used Collection 2000's Waterproof Fast Stroke Eyeliner, and Urban Decay's Perversion 24/7 pencil on my waterline. I also added a little Apple Sour under my lash line .

 

Hope you guys like my look! Please leave a comment below if you have any other ideas on what I could do! Love hearing from you!
