Push glass in Nice Buzz

Matte finish - Yash

-Illamasqua Vapour

This eyeshadow is amazing either alone or blended into a nice Black/Brown smokey eye, it gives it much more warmth and colour.

-Swatches  top  to bottom,  Yash Vapour Nice Buzz and Vanilla

EYES

Here i am wearing on the eye - mac Vanilla pigment as highlight on brow, underneath select cover up concealer in NC15 with paint pot in pinterly patted on top to grab hold of the eyeshadow, i then have Vapour blended with give me sun MSF, then blended with M3,M2,M5,M6 and M1 from the smash box full exposure palette. On the lid i have two  Dior eyeshadows blended together ( which i don't have the name of sorry) with smash box S3 pigment patted on top. (wet)

SKIN

Smash box studio finish primer to start. I have  used mac studio sculpt foundation mixed with Dior star as i love the finish Dior star gives but due to red cheeks i just need a little more coverage, i also have on prep and prime in Radiant rose and give me sun MSF bronzer with too faced chocolate bronzer to add a little more brown as give me sun has a little orange tone. 

LIPS

Stripdown liner with Yash and Nice buzz Pushglass.

When i first stepped into the bathroom i saw the elegies toiletries and i knew then that this was going to be a great stay here. They had the elegies lip revive which is amazing for dry lips, the eyes awake eye gel which is so soothing when your tired in a morning. shower gel, hand and body cream, soap and shampoo. On the bed side table we also had the quiet mind pillow spray which is so so good i can't even begin to explain!

The elemis silent mind pillow spray was the best thing ever it made me have such a great night sleep and since i have ran out i can't sleep without it. If you can get your hands on it id definitely recommend it. 

We arrived at the V&A an hour early so we could sit and have a drink before going into the exhibition. There is a restaurant in the v&a so we sat and had a glass of process while a man played the grand piano in the centre it was so beautiful and romantic. The design of the place is stunning to just look at. I'd also not had any birthday cake this year so i had to treat myself to a big piece of carrot cake! why not!

 

This little beauty is an energy boosting moisturiser that is oil free and it smells like ORANGES! wow.. just wow it's like  a super fresh boots for the skin. It Hydrates without leaving the skin oily.. TAH DAAHH.. thats a first. lets just say this moisturiser made my life complete. I also got a 75ml tub for the price of a 50ml tub as it is a limited edition one! price - £25.00 

Mac cosmetics Paint pot in Painterly.. i don't give this product enough credit that is why i felt like i needed to include this even though use it all the time! this is the secret to blending eyeshadow it makes it blend much smoother a lot easier and it gives you a blank canvas to work from. It also lasts absolutely ages this pot is only £17 and I've had it since October and we are now on may.. nearly in June.. and i use it every single day near enough it just does not go down!!!

Everyone loves a good perfume.. i like to purchase one every so often so that my collection doesn't go down too much. Boots in Meadowhall had an offer on so i just couldn't resist! 75ml for the price of  30ml! (with my staff discount too) its such a cute bottle and a lovely fragrance 

Its coming up to summer and if you know me you will know my nickname is casper.. i am super pale and the last thing i want is extreme dark fake tan.. well i do but i don't want it to look stupid! i also wanted something quick and easy that you can't notice the developing stage because some fake tans go from one extreme to another like ST.MORRIS. st morris is amazing for a night out but for through the week at work i don't always want to make that much effort to put it on.. This clarions fake tan is a little more pricey but so so worth it! it is £25 but its a cream which goes on easy doesn't go patchy and also washes off nicely too.. I'm literally on empty so when i purchase some more il upload before and after pictures for you guys to see.. i wasn't surprised that this was good because i do love Clarins products the quality is great. 

Last but not least a good hair care product. This is a premium brand called bumble and bumble which are so so good if you haven't tried this haircare/styling brand you need to! my hair is just screaming help at the moment with me not bleaching it anymore its like ahhh wheres my fix i NEED THE BLEACH give me the bleach! and I'm just like no! foot down no! i thought it was time to give my hair a break and go el naturel and let my roots grow a little and because it has been bleached in the past it needs a little help when blowdrying as it is really porous and literally drinks all the water. This product has made my hair so soft afterwards rather than dry and brittle.. when your hair is damp you rub  a pea sized amount in your hand work through the hair and then blow dry! super easy and it doesn't make your hair greasy either.. if your hair needs some help and TLC i would definitely give this product a go.. BLONDES  you know exactly what am talking about! 

I will do a separate post on hair care routine and products i use pretty soon so keep readin' and i will post to you lovelies shortly xoxox 

Here are my two favorite brow products i love using and will probably never change!
i always try new things and experiment with makeup but there is one thing i don't like changing and that is my brow products! maybe in the future i will try something different but for now i will stick to these!

so from left to right i have the hard angle defined brush by benefit which is our brow brush and its so good for precision. then next we have the brow zings in medium by benefit ( as i have run out of my dark one! finally!) these babies last forever!!! i have customers coming to me who's been using this a full year and who have only just run out its amazing! and its only £24.50 you also get a small angled brow brush and rounded edge one and then a small pair of tweeters!

on the right we have the MUA pro brow palette in dark which are found in every super drug shockingly only £3!! yes £3!! and its amazing for its price! however as you can see i have used it so much it only lasts about a month but its still amazing for a cheaper alternative.. on the pictures below i am wearing the MUA pro brow palette as i have run out of my dark brow zings and the medium now looks too light on me! but i'm off to get a new one tomorrow! pay day finally yay!

                                                 

so now i am about to show you how to map your brows this can also be done with a Q tip but i have used the end of my brow brush! this is how to get a perfect brow shape unique to your face to frame it and get those brows on point!

First thing is first the point where your brow should start from the outside of your nostril.. not the edge of your nose but your nostril. i am aware i look stupid with a a brush in my face but its all for you guys!! then you point the brush straight up and that is where your brow should start.. just mark it to begin with and then you can join the dots up afterwards. 

2. the brow arch... 

so you go from the same point again through the pupil of your eye and that is where your brow should arch.. gives you a great guideline so that you don't end up with brows right up your forehead!

3. Last but not least the end point.

you now go from the edge of your nose straight past the corner of your eye and this is where your brows should end.. see girls! its as easy as this! so don't get your knickers in a twist give it a go!.. to get the ombre fade at the front to make them look more natural all you do is take all the product of the brush give it a wipe and just blend softly making sure you use less product to begin with at your starting point! if this is still too difficult i shall create a video to help you further! hope this helps

(ps i do apologise for not looking very glam today only have tinted moisturiser on by Niva in natural.. my brows and mascara on! hence why you can see my bright red cheeks! )
