EOTD - Smokey green & bronze.

Hey everyone,

So I may not have been doing blog posts much but I have been taking photos of my eye of the day for you still :-) lol

Here is an eye of the day from last week.

I used a bronze cream eyeshadow by elf as my base, the dark green in the MUA glitter ball palette on my lids, then the lighter brown in the same palette in my crease, I used the darker brown to define the crease and to line my lower lashes. I then lined my top, bottom lash lines and my water line with Avon supershock liner in steel and I used my fave mascara, volume million, after curling my lashes.

Hope you like it? Does anyone have any requests for colours or styles of make up looks you would like to see?

My New Years Eve Look - Better late then never??

Hey everyone,

Sorry sorry, I haven't done a blog post in ages again! Its been pretty manic here, hope you can forgive me?

Anyway, here is the look I rocked on new years eve, even though we didn't go out & I was wearing my slippers! LOL.

I like to call this look Glitz, Glam and Lashes :-)

The lashes were rubbish & ended up coming off within an hour lol

Lots off fallout from the glitter :-/

The full face......

What do you think of this look? I used cosmetic glitter, but even so when I woke up in the morning my eyes were a bit sore. But it was a very fun look & one I will definitely try again in different colours.

Have you created any glittery looks? If so post the link below, i'd love to see them.

Blink & go FOTD

Hey everyone,

as promised here is my face of the day using the blink and go palette!

I dyed my hair too what do you think?

too dark??

On my face I used ELF foundation in sand, I primed my lids with ELF eye primer, then I packed on the shimmer white in the blink & go palette, I then took the purple & blended it in the outer V & my crease, I then took the white again & put it as a highlight on my brow bone, then i took the light gold colour & blended out the the purple with it, then I took the pink and added a bit to my crease, i then went back to the purple & added more to my crease for definition. Then I took a small angled brush & put the purple on my lower lash line, I took the white again & put that on my tear duct area. I then took a shimmery purple liner from ELF & put that on my upper & lower lash lines. I then took urban decay 24/7 liner, in brown & put that on my water line. I used ELF double ended mascara for my lashes. I used the HD palette on my brows.

On my cheeks I used a light pink blush & then took the coral colour from the blink and go palette & put that on my apples of my cheeks.

I finished with a nude liner & lipstick from avon & added MAC dazzle glass to the centre of my lips to plump them up a bit! I then powdered with ELF HD powder.

I hope you like!? Any suggestions for other looks you would like to see?

Ok so I gave glossybox one more chance!!

Hey everyone!

As you can probably gather from the title, I got another glossy box! I had a bad experience with their shocking customer services & vowed never to get one again, but my friend went to the clothes show & got a code for a free box, & hey free IS free! So I ordered one.....and I am so glad I did!!!

The December box is AAAAAHHHHMMMMAAAZZZIIINNGG!!! This months box is red! which is really pretty!! and everything in it I am so so happy with! I got a FULL sized rituals shower gel, which I used in the shower this morning and its the most gorgeous shower gel i've ever tried, it smells lush & made my skin so so soft!! I also got a FULL sized Blink and Go palette, which is awesome, the colours are really pigmented & shimmery, I love it!! I got a mini nail polish by Deborah Lipman, in razzle dazzle which is a really pretty glittery red! I got a stunning lipgloss from Cargo, which is so so sparkly & looks gorgeous on! and last of all I got a sample of Bionova eye cream, which ive used for 2 days and I really like!

I am really sorry that I haven't taken pictures but I was too excited to use everything and this is the first box I have had that I have tried EVERYTHING in it already!

I am going to do my face of the day next which uses the blink & go palette I got so look out for that!

If you haven't already got your glossybox this month definitely get it!! and if you have got it, what did you get in your box??

ELF & MAC mini haul :-D

Hey ladies,
Thank you to those who replied to my input blog!

A few weeks ago I went to MAC to get some foundation and was dazzled by the gorgeous glitter and ice collection!! I ended up buying my studio fix foundation in NW15 and these goodies!!....

MAC Paint Pot in "Lets Skate"

This is an absolutely GORGEOUS paint pot!! Its been my fave item since I brought it!

Its like a baby pink with gold, iridescent sparkles. I wear it on its own with gel liner & mascara

or under another shadow, the sparkles shine through!!

Ohhhhhh I <3 you paint pot!!

Excuse the picture, mine didn't turn out very well!! Anyway these lipglosses are just stunning!

I got the neutral one and in that i got 2 cremesheens and 2 dazzle glasses.

I got these as my chrimbo pressie off my hubby :-D.

Now onto my e.l.f haul....

If you know of e.l.f you will know that they are really affordable and fantastic quality AND they often have fab sales!! Well they extended their 40% off sale the other week, so I had to take advantage, it would have been rude not to!! lol this is what I brought....

The exact lash mascara - this is so good for getting eyelashes that frame your eyes, it gets all those wee lashes that normal mascara wands miss & its great for your bottom lashes!
