FOTD: Living Dead Dragon

This is a look I wore last weekend when I went out for a friend's Hen party. I wanted to do something slightly 1920s inspired, so I went for a dark eye with green tones, which was darker at the inner eye area.

Sorry I look so miserable in the full face pic, I hate taking them haha! Anyway, here's what I used:

Eyes

Too Faced Shadow Insurance

Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil in Black Bean

Spellbound Cosmetics Dragon Scales

Hi Fi Cosmetics Living Dead Girl

MAC White Gold Pigment

Urban Decay 24/7 Liner in Zero

Illamasqua Volume Mascara in Harness

Face

e.l.f. Flawless Finish Foundation in Porcelain

Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Sin

Lips

Collection 2000 CreamPuff Moisturising Lip Cream in Angel Delight

Dragon Scales is the main colour in this look, it's a MAC Club-esque brown/green duochrome which, as usual, looks awesome over a black base. For this look, rather than my usual smoky look with this type of colour, I brought more of the dark colours into the inner eye area, quite high up which reminds me of the silent movie stars. I hope you like it!

FOTD: Fyrinnae Sennyo

This is the look I did on Friday night when I went out for a friend's birthday meal. It was really lovely and we had a great time. We went to a Chinese restaurant which I love, ordered a ton of yummy food and drank wine :) I did a look which was quick but I love the combo and my bf always complements it. Sennyo is one of my all-time favourite colours; it's bright but pretty, not to dark, not too blue, and goes with so many other eyeshadows.

I realise there is liner on my lashes, you couldn't tell from a normal distance :p

What I used:

Urban Decay Primer Potion
NYC Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk (inner corner)
Fyrinnae Sennyo - bright pinky purple (lid)
Hi Fi Cosmetics Rockstar Loose Eyeshadow in Top 40 - raspberry pink (crease)
Hi Fi Cosmetics Shadow in In Bloom - bubblegum pink (above crease & inner corner)
Beauty From The Earth Big Ego - deep purple (lower lashline)
Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner in Le Freak

Hi Fi's In Bloom reminds me of Sugarpill's Dollipop, except loose. I sometimes use it instead because it's easier to get off for me. Dollipop can sometimes stain my eyelids a bit. I love Hi Fi's shadows so much, they're so soft and blendable and the shades are mostly unique :) Hope you like this look!

P.S. I'm thinking of doing some more tutorials soon, maybe how to use glitter eyeliner, and how to wear bright coloured eyeshadow. Let me know if any of you are interested!

FOTD: MAC Teal Pigment

I don't use MAC Teal Pigment enough. It's really pretty and goes with a surprising amount of colours.

Products used:

Eyes
UDPP
MAC Teal Pigment
BFTE Truffle
Urban Decay Naked, Virgin
Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Jungle Green
Mascara

Cheeks
Asda George Cheeky Tint

Lips

Hope you like it :)

Sleek Acid Look

Last night I wanted to use my Sleek Acid palette again, I love it :) I just basically copied xSparkage's look since she made it look so cool, but it's very similar to what I normally do with it. I skipped the black though since I wanted it to be mega bright. I also just got the Nyx Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk so I was excited to try that out. I'm suitably pleased with it :)

It would have probably looked better with false eyelashes I think, but they look weird on me :s So my eyelashes look a bit pants but never mind, I love this look.

Here's what I used:

Eyes
UDPP
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
Sleek Acid Palette (yellow, orange, neon pink, raspberry, purple, light blue, green, white)
Rimmel Professional Liquid Eye Line
Mascara

Cheeks
Fyrinnae Glow Blush in Charm

Lips
Collection 2000 Lock n Hold Lipgloss in Body Pop

Hope you like it!

Review: Collection 2000 Lock n Hold Glosses

The other day I was in Asda and spotted these glosses. They caught my attention because they have no shimmer or glitter in them. I like that for lips. So I picked up Body Pop (1), a bubblegum pink, and Rock Steady (3), a nude colour. They were on offer for £2 but I don't remember what the usual retail price was. They are brand new though, so I'm sure there will be lots of promotions on them. When I got home I wanted to find out more about them and check out the other shades since I hadn't spent long looking at them. I found out they aren't due to be released until the 14th or something, so I was quite pleased to have got them a week early!

Onto the photos.

These glosses advertise themselves as being long-lasting, with the tube stating you can get "up to 6 hours wear". I've been wearing them at work during the week, and I can say they are just average in terms of how long they stay on the lips. I get about 2-3 hours wear maybe. They also tend to matte down as they wear, leaving just the colour on my lips. I have other lipglosses that last a lot better, but I tend not to expect lipgloss to stay on that long. I don't mind reapplying. The colour itself it pretty sheer, but I think they are nice. Rock Steady particularly is good for paling down your lips without giving you that 'concealer lips' look, which works well with a darker or smoky eye. 

Overall: I like the glosses, lovely colour selection and I love that they aren't shimmery at all. I would definitely repurchase, but don't buy them expecting them to last all day!
