Playing About With Makeup.. Contouring!

Unknown September 19, 2013 0 Comments

Hey guys I just thought I'd do a little random post as I have practiced contouring my face for the first time using different shades of foundation, bronzer and highlighter to make my makeup look better and I am so proud!!! I have also done an ombré lip again as I am getting a little obsessed with now nice it looks!

Here I have used a Mac match master foundation in 1.5 mixed with max factor smooth creamy effect foundation to get the right texture and colour for my skin, I will admire the Mac foundation is not my colour as it is much darker that's why I have mixed it with an ivory colour! I have highlighted my face around the t-zone area and just under the eyes with Rimmel London match perfection foundation in light porcelain.

I have then used a sun kisses bronzer to tone the cheek bones and around the edge of my forehead. I have blended that in nicely with the foundation but I have also used a Stila foundation powder in a dark shade to help along with that.

For my blush I have used Gosh 36 rose whisper to add a Rosie colour back into my cheeks and it blends really nicely with the bronzer!

Again For the lips I have used a lip liner in adventure - not sure who by

I have also used Mac matte lipstick in lady gaga viva glam and the lovely ruby woo!

Hope you like this look its just a basic contour and it is my first time so please bare with me as I will get much better!:-)

OOTD. 18/09/13

Unknown September 18, 2013 0 Comments

It's been a long time since I posted an outfit of the day post so I thought today would be a good day to post one! It's getting towards the cold weather now but the weather is so unpredictable with these cold then sunny spells! That's England for you.

Here I am wearing my black jersey top with a mesh heart shaped bust line that goes into a v- shaped see through section going down the chest area which is from eBay at a bargain price of £12.00 ! It is so versatile this is the kind of top I would wear to style a day - night look as it looks great on a night out too with either high waisted jeans or a midi skirt.

On the bottom half we have my grey jersey skater skirt from Topshop which I bought quite a while ago in the sale for £10 which again was a bargain but these are available to get practically anywhere now as they are so popular and just easy to wear.

To finish the look I've added a pair of black thick tights and a tartan scarf which I cut out from an old-ish tartan blanket I had that had never been used! Can you believe it?! (I know) you'd never think it..

I love a good old recycle. Although I do have one from h&m but these will be all over the shop this season as tartan has made a comeback!

Accessories - necklace (absolute steal!) - Primark - £4

As for my coat it is from Matalan at £35 and it is the best Parker I have ever bought and I have had it for at least two years and its still in more than great condition! Plus it's fur lined so it keeps you really warm and cosy with the fur Hood!

Ps the lipstick I am wearing is pink pearl pop by Mac :)

Hope you all like my outfit of the day..

Until next time see you soon lovelies xox

Makeup of the day! Fall - smokey brown/grey/black eyes.

Unknown September 17, 2013 0 Comments

Today I have gone for a fall look as it is coming into the winter which means we can start to bring out the darks! I have done a smokey brown/black eye using Fearne cotton's dusk till dawn shadow pallet with a few matt brown shades and a touch of shimmer eye shadows by accessorize.

I have teamed this look up with a slight ombré lip using lady gaga viva glam red and coming in from the corners and round the lip like with a dark plum lipstick by mac - unsure of the name! (It's rubbed off the bottom) and a Nyx plum lip liner!

Hope you like this look, it's not amazing but it was early this morning! So sorry I'm if lacking guys..

Until my next post! Adios x x x

At my college in Barnsley I'm in the second year of my fashion course and we Are building up our project in which we will be working with the famous big name brand Mac cosmetics.

My modern 60s inspired shirt! Made by me

Unknown June 28, 2013 0 Comments

Here is my shirt that I have designed and made all finished! I have used inspiration from the swinging sixties and the modern clothes women wear today to crest this little number!

I have used thread pulling to create the checked pattern on the front piece and I have used puff binder for the print on my sleeves and back pieces! I am really pleased with the outcome of my shirt and I think I have done really well as it looks exactly like my design!

! Hope you like it x x

Summers coming.. I think?

Time to pull out the florals girls! I am about to tell you just where to go to get the perfect summer clothes that are extremely affordable....

MISSGUIDED!

They have a holiday shop section if your looking for holiday clothes specifically but if not just browse their website for some gorgeous finds!

I recently purchased this little number which I am obsessed with! It's a floral crop top full of different shades of blue on a black base. I chose this top because not only do I love the colour but the print is beautiful!

Here I have teamed it up with my glamorous black disco pants with a belt around the waist to add that finishing touch.

Hope you like! All my love.

Pink Pearl Pop...

Unknown June 28, 2013 0 Comments

I have recently purchased a new mac lipstick as I went to Leeds for a shopping trip and we went into the Harvey Nics store (because i couldn't resist) and I spotted this gorgeous colour! I swatched it and instantly fell in love with it!

Its not matte lipstick but it has a creme-sheen glossy texture. you can either apply a small amount to the lip for a pale pink or really cover the lip for the full colour of this stunning baby soft pink!

I totally recommend this lipstick if your not too keen on the brighter shades as it is literally just like a pop of pink colour on the lip.

Like most creme sheen textured lipsticks it doesn't stay in the lip line as long as you'd like it to as it smudges over a little but overall I'd say that's the only negative

Hope you like guys! Lets see if you can resist the Mac counter... And i think We all know the answer to that! Here is a picture of me wearing the Lippy and a close up!
