Hey guys, I've got a makeup look for you all today. I thought I'd share this  look I came up with today: it's a shimmery pinky / purple smokey eye and with a nude coral lip. I didn't really know where I was going to go with this look when I was doing it but I quite like how it turned out.

The whole eye look was more or less done with the Sleek i-Divine palette in 'Vintage Romance'. I used the shades Marry in Monte Carloe on the whole lid itself and Honeymoon in Hollywood in the crease. I then used A Vow in Venice and Bliss in Barcelona mixed with Forever in Florence to further deepen the crease and outer eye. Then, right on the middle of the lid I added a little bit of Court in Cannes to add a bit more of dimension to the look. I highlighted with my Sugarpill single eyeshadow in Tako and finished the eye look off with a soft winged liner, a nude liner in my waterline and some of my favourite mascara. 

That's the look complete - i'll be sure to leave links and prices to all the products used to create this look below. Thank you for reading and let me know what you think of this look!

Hey! Today's post is going to be a make up look - something I haven't done for a little while. Today I had some new products to try which I was looking forward too. This look basically consists of a more subtle black and white smokey eye and a dark red/berry lip. I'll tell you guys what products I used and what tools I used to apply them - enjoy!

First off, for the foundation, I used Revlon's Colour Stay in the shade ''. For the concealer I used my Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer in 'Light'. To apply both the foundation and concealer, I used my BeautyBay blending sponge.

Next, for the eyebrows I used a Revlon angled brush and a Revlon brow powder duo. I used the lightest brown for the front of my brows and then as I near the ends, I used a little bit of the darker powder.

Onto the eyelids, I primed them with my Urban Decay primer potion. Then, I used my Maybelline Colour Tattoo Cream Eyeshadow in 'Permanent Taupe' and applied it all over the eyelid - focusing more of it into the outer corner. I then used my Urban Decay Naked palette and applied the shade 'Virgin' to my inner third and onto the brown bone as a highlight. I took a little bit of the black from the palette and used it to line my bottom waterline a little bit. For mascara, I used my Maybelline Falsies in 'Black'.

Back onto the face, I used my Nars duo and took the shade 'Laguna' to contour. Then, I used my Sleek Blush by 3 palette in the shade 'Pink Sprint' for my cheeks.

I went for a dark lip and used my Lancaster lipstick in the shade number 50. 

And that's the look complete! Thank you very much for reading this post and I really hope you enjoyed it!

As always, leave any comments of suggestions you might have as a I love hearing from you!

MOTD: 10/10/13.

Hello! Today I have a makeup of the day post for you all. I went for a neautral eye and a bold lip today. This look uses pink tones with the blush and the lip products used, enjoy!

SO, as always I applied a light moisturiser to my face and primed my lips with a little bit of lip balm. I then applied my foundation and concealer. I used my Maybelling Dream Fresh BB cream instead of actual foundation because I wanted to go for a really light, fresh look. I concealed with my Rimmel Stay Matte concealer stick. 

Moving on to the eyebrows and eyes.. I lightly filled in my brows with a mid brown eyeshadow. I then primed my eyelids with my Elf primer and then applied a very light, shimmery champagne eyeshadow to the the whole lid. In the crease I applied a light, shimmery brown and blended it out, deepening the colour of the outer corner and working inwards just a little bit. I highlighted my brow bone with a light white shadow and I lined my lower lid with a mid eyeshadow and blended this out. I then applied my favourite mascara and the eyes are complete!

Back onto the face, I used my Sleek Face Form kit to first contour my cheekbones. I then highlighted the top and length of my nose and along the top of my cheeks with the shimmery highlight colour in the kit. For my blush, I used my MUA blush in the shade 'Marshmallow'. 

For the lips I applied my Collection 2000 Cream Puff lip cream in the shade 'Cotton Candy'.

I topped everything off with a little bit of my Rimmel Stay Matte powder to eliminate shine and shimmer in places I didn't want it!

And that is the look COMPLETE! Tah-dah!

I really hope you liked this look, I think it's really simple and very pretty for everyday wear. Let me know what you think of it! Please, leave any comments and suggestions you might have as I love to hear from you all, thank you for reading this post!
