Catching Up

Hey all, sorry for the long gap in posting. I've just completed a big project for college so hopefully now I'll have a bit more time to spend on the blog.

Last Sunday we had some friends round to watch the Superbowl, which was really fun, but very tiring. I live in the UK so it finished around 3am for us! Of course I had to do a makeup look to match the event, so I did a red, white&blue look on my eyes:

The glitter spread around a lot but whatever. I still thought it looked cool. I used Sugarpill eyeshadows, with glitter from The Body Needs and Helen E pressed on top. I also did some face paint on my bf, but I won't show you that haha!

The other exciting thing to happen lately was winning a contest on Wendy's blog Turtle Beauty! Here's a pic of most of the goodies (there was even more but some stuff got passed on to friends or into my kit):

I'm hoping to swatch some of this stuff for you soon, but so far I'm loving it! I was so glad to get my hands on the Day 2 Night eyeshadow quad, it's so pretty. Let me know if there's anything you see here you want a review/swatches of. I also have a cream eyeshadow that's not pictured here, in Dawn.

EOTD: Misfit Screwdriver

Yay, I've finally had time and energy to do some makeup! The last few weeks have been really busy for me with tons of college work to be done, assessments in class, and long hours at work. So sorry the blog has been a bit quiet!

FOTD: It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

Hello! I thought today I would do a bit of a Christmas themed look. I know it's been done a thousand times before, but I love it. Glittery red lips and neutral, 50's style eye makeup.

Sorry my skin is bad and my lips are cracked at the corners. Oh well! Anyway, for this look I used:

Skin

e.l.f. Flawless Finish Foundation in Porcelain
Soap & Glory Kick Ass Concealer in Light
Fyrinnae Rapunzel Had Extensions (as cheek highlight)
Sleek Blush in Suede
Ulta blush, can't remember the shade

Eyes

Too Faced Shadow Insurance
Soap & Glory Lid Stuff in What's Nude
Asda George 4 colour eye palette in chestnut
Black mascara

Lips

Barry M Lip Liner in shade 3
Nyx Round Lipstick in Snow White
The Body Needs red glitter

Hope you like this look, and you all have a lovely Christmas if you celebrate!

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!

Eyes of the Day - Colour & Sparkle

Here is a look I did today. Not very original colour combo but I really like it.
