NYE Makeup! Sleek Vintage Romance Palette Look!

Hey guys! I'm in the middle of moving still at the moment so I haven't been able to do any recent looks so I've had to hold some back! This was my makeup look for NYE! I hope you all had a lovely night, and I hope you like my look!

I've been on the hunt for Sleek's Vintage Romance Palette for a while and I found it in a piercing studio on the Isle of Wight! I was so happy! I picked it up and instantly had to do a look with it!

I'm addicted to pinks and burnt orange shades at the moment, they're so fun to play around with!

The Vintage Romance palette includes a matte shadow and shimmer/glitter shades so you can create some gorgeous looks. You will also need a hightlighter shade though!

In this palette, for this look I used the top right shade, all three gorgeous pinks and the glittery black for my eyeliner. Sometimes, I think a thick black line can ruin a look so I like to just press a black shadow into my lashline.

I wore this look out on NYE and even my 8 year old niece said she likes it! Which was a shock seeming she's a complete tomboy, and being 8 she usually just says 'what's on your face?'

 

So that's my look! Mascara and brows, the same as always and no lashes today as I wore this look out! I'm not great with actually wearing lashes, I usually just wear them for pictures! haha

 

I hope you like it! I will try and get some more looks done soon I promise! I just need to get a new lamp...

The Body Shop 4-Step Smoky Eyes, Smoky Plum Look!

Hey Guys!

My wonderful best friend bought me the 4-Step Smoky Eyes in Smoky Plum for me for Christmas (she knows me so well!) And I wore it out to my work Christmas do so I thought, from now on, when i get dolled up I'll take some pictures of my looks to show you! The looks I usually post on my blog, aren't ones I'd always wear out so I thought it would be good to show you looks that I wear myself.

Here's the look I did using the palette! It does show you a look you can follow on the back of the palette, but I decided to do something a little different. And to me, it's not exactly plum...but very shimmery! I actually really liked it! Very good pigmentation too!

I do not enjoy taking photos of myself. Haha I'm still learning how to take them of my eye! Brows are HD Brows in Foxy, skin is Mac Select SPF Foundation (I think) in NW10...so pale! Also, Mac mineralized skin finish in fair, blush in Sun Basque and Highlighter in Lightscapade. Bronzer is my all time favourite, Hoola by Benefit.

I hate looking at photos of my lips, but I've tried! Must try harder... Lipstick is a concoction of colours from my Makeup Forever Flash Palette, mainly the pink, red and dark blue.

Here's what the pretty palette looks like. 4 Shades to create some gorgeous looks however they do all have glitter or shimmer to them, so unless you want to shine then I recommend a matte shade of something! I used Blanc Type from MAC to highlight my brow bone, inner corner and under my eye.

And that's it! A nice quick post! I'll leave you with this lovely photo of myself...I get bored easily.

 

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas! This is a very busy time for me right now but I wanted to get a post out soon! I will try and get another out this week!

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR! x

Winter Rain Makeup Look!

Hey Guys!
Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, I've been on bed rest, Doctor's orders! But I'm feeling better now and love love love playing with makeup at the moment! So here's another look!
I wanted to do a seasonal look, and seeming the weather SUCKS at the moment, a cold and blue look came to mind! I hope you guys like it :)

I started this look with, as always, my ELF primer and NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk.

Then added Urban Decay Hijacked and Mac's Steamy to my lid.

Then in my crease I used a sky blue from my P88 Palette and Plumage by Mac.

My eyeliner is Urban Decay Liquid Liner in Perversion, Stingray by Stila on my waterline, and my lashes are the Princess Eyelashes from Born Pretty in M-3.

On my inner corner and highlighter I used Mac's Blanc Type, and also on my inner corner I added Aura by Urban Decay (the blue half, obviously!) and oh my god its just so pretty!!! It looks so gorgeous in real life but it just doesn't seem to want to photograph well!

 

Anyway that's the look for today! I wore it out today and it looked amazing!

I love it!

Note to self though: add shimmery colours LAST. Otherwise everything turns shimmery -_-

 

Hope you like it!

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!

Christmas is Coming!!

Ok, I feel like I do the same thing every year but I don't care! What's more Christmassy than red and gold? I love it! Although I just realised I now match my Christmas tree...

For this look I used my new P88 Palette from Born Pretty Store, I love how pigmented the colours are, I was so surprised!

And also Coppering, from Mac.

My eyelashes are Princess Lashes in M-3, also from Born Pretty Store.

Eyeliner is Urban Decay Liquid Liner in Perversion, and Stila Smudge Stick in Stingray on my waterline.

Mascara is the same as always! Mac Plush Lash and Benefit They're Real.

So that's my second Christmas look! I hope you like it, Makeup hasn't been my friend for the last few days so I was quite happy when this came out ok!

Vice 2 Palette Look #1!

Hello!
The lovely Miss Louise from Lilting Grace asked me to do some looks using my Vice 2 Palette, so of course I will! I've had this one ready for a little while now, what a perfect time to use it! I will try and get some more looks out using my Vice 2 Palette asap!
If anyone ever wants to see a look, using something I've got then just let me know and I'll be more than happy to oblige!

I didn't have great lighting so sorry for the bad photos, I will do some more looks soon!

For this look I used X-Rated, Voodoo, Habit, Coax and Betrayal.

I also used Psychedelic Sister from my Book of Shadows II.

This is under different lighting, so you can see the beautiful pink colours!

Lashes are Eylure 100, mascara is Mac's Plush Lash and Benefit They're Real.

 

Hope you like the look Louise!
