March 13 2010

Hey guys! It feels like donkeys of years since I last posted, but Life has been happening to me! Uni deadlines, Trips, Work blah blah blah… But Fear Not, I’m Back!  Yay! I filmed a video of my everyday face, that includes my foundation, blush, lip etc. routine, that some may find helpful! It doesn’t usually take me this long to apply my make-up, but recording it and talking through is what lengthened the process! Lol! Webcam Madness! Loves it! Haha! Below is a list of all products used: ~Face~ MACs Studio Fix Fluid (NC45) Garnier Eye Roll-On MACs Mineralize… Read More »

BEAUTY
February 18 2010

Who else is tired of the winter?? I know I am! So much so that i’m desperately waiting for Spring – My Favourite Season – to come. I’ve had a little nosey round on the internet and looked at few mags here and there, and I have come across a few trends for the upcoming season. In Make-Up, i’ve seen quite a few pastel eyes and bold lips, so i decided to create this look today! Pastel green eyes and bold pink lips! haha!(Nail Polish ~ Rimmel I ♥ Lasting Finish in Tangerine Queen.) … Below are the Products I… Read More »

All About Face Make-Up Brush Set.

BEAUTY
February 11 2010

So i’ve finally given in and tried out my Make-up brushes that I recieved as a gift from my lovely housemate!  Would you believe me if I told you, I stared at the beautiful white bristles for ages before i took the plunge, and used it?? Haha, Sad I know! I did a little research and discovered that they were actually part of the Holiday Gift Range that Tesco brought out late last year, and they were on sale for only £6! Now that is awesome, given that these brushes are of very good quality! The set comes with Six… Read More »

Diamonds are a girls best friend.

BEAUTY
December 31 2009

One of my favourite bloggers Zoe recently hit the 2000 follower mark. Congratulations girlie! 😀 To celebrate she is having a Diamond themed contest and this is my entry for it. I find diamonds to be very glamourous and when I think of them , I think Sparkly and girly, so I created this look based on that. Make-up Breakdown Eyes I primed my eyes with Too Face Shadow Insurance as usual. I then followed by basing the lid with a greyish/black shadestick (MACs Sharksin). Using a flat shading brush, a matte purple eyeshadow (MACs Shadow lady) was applied all… Read More »

MakeUp Look – Sleek Sunset Palette Look

BEAUTY
December 26 2009

I was inspired by Rai’s gorgeous Holiday Inspired Look and so I wanted to re-create it using products I have. (…but honestly, i would love to get my hands on some Nyx! lol.) I used my sleek sunset palette to do just that. 😀 The gold from the pallette was swept across the lid and the cranberry red was blended into the crease. My upper eye-lid was lined with a black liquid liner and using a black kohl pencil, i lined and tight-lined my eyes, popped some falsies (£land falsies!) to finish off the look. I’m so happy with the… Read More »

I get a lot of requests from my subscribers and readers to do hair tutorials of hair styles i’ve worn in previous videos, so i decided to do it.Most of them can be achieved by everyone, but some may be for people with mid-length to long hair. Just test them out, see what works for you. I will be doing more videos like these as I found it quite fun and easy to do! Here’s the first part… I hope this is helpful to some of you! …xx

MakeUp Tutorial – Rihanna Inspired.

BEAUTY
December 8 2009

Ever since I saw her rocking this eye makeup look (Bright eye liner or Shadow on the lower lash line) i’d wanted to try it out. I think it’s a cool way of doing your eye-makeup and it doesn’t require any special skill whatsoever! Here she is with a blueey green. Here she took it to another level with the hot pink. The red here is a lot edgier but still elegant. In all the photo’s i’ve come across of her, she usually has a nude or soft orangey-gold eye lid and a very thin line of black liquid liner.… Read More »
