Colour Pop for Green and Blue Eyes!

Hey Guys!
I really wanted to see what I could come up with using Aniseed from my Sleek i-Candy palette, because it's such an unusual colour with a beautiful shimmer, but red isn't an easy eyeshadow to use!
Unless you're going big and bright, I find it hard to fit into a look, however it does work really well with blue-greeny eyes, and makes them pop!
So, what I've done is added it into a smoky brown look! I hope you like it :)

I used so many different palettes, I don't know where to start! I used Urban Decay Naked and Naked 2 palettes, Sleek i-Candy, Beauty UK palette, Urban Decay Glinda Palette (I used the amazing gold under my lash line) and a single Mac shadow, which came out at Christmas in one of their Duos called Baby it's cold outside.

I used Urban Decay 24/7 pencil eyeliner in Perversion on my waterline and Collection 2000's extreme liner in Black to create a winged look.
Sorry about the slight yellow shadow under my lashes! I have a new light bulb which gives amazing white light but it's in a yellow lamp so it shows up a bit! Will have to get a new white one!

Aniseed left a very pretty glittery finish on my eyelid, I love how it mixed so well with the brown base I used, so it wasn't too red! My lashes are Eylure #100.

 Just a few snaps below! I love how my eyes look so bright! Giving the red tint to my brown smoky eye definitely gave them an edge! And I love how the lashes looked in the third photo, love them!

Just a super quick smoky eye for you! I think I need to start doing more looks! I couldn't do them at night because my lighting was too yellow however since I put a new weird curly energy saving light bulb in my lamp, I've got amazing white light! Will definitely be doing more looks in the future!

Hope you like it! x

Sand & Sea Eye Of The Day... using Sleek & Urban Decay

Hey guys, It's been too long since I've posted looks! Getting back into it with avengence now!

I was playing around with makeup earlier and this is basically what I came up with :) I live on an Island so spend most of my time down the beach! This is a look to remind me that summers just around the corner! Can get back to the beach soon, wohoo!

 

 

I first primed my eyes with Urban Decay Primer Potion and then added a light layer of NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk over my eyelid as a solid base for the eye shadows.

All the eye shadows I used were from Sleek's Ultra Matts V2 Palette which I LOVE! I love all of the Sleek palettes I have, the pigment and blendability of the colours are amazing and the price is fantastic! Totally worth it and great for beginners; You can get so many looks out of just one Palette!

 

 

I used Dune in the inner third of my eyelid and blended it into Orbit, which I used to cover the rest of my eyelid and also take it over the crease. To define the crease I used Ink and smoothed out the edges with Pillow Talk. This alone was a beautiful look but I added a little bit of shimmer by using SideCar from Urban Decay over the inner half of my eyelid.

 

 

I followed on the line of Orbit under my lower lash line just to finish the look off. To me, if there's no colour under the lower lash line, it just looks unfinished! I didn't go the whole length of my lash line though because it makes your eyes look closed off and a lot smaller. By stopping just under the pupil it will make your eyes look a lot bigger and brighter!

 

 

For eyeliner, I've done a double line and wing using 2 Gel Eyeliners from E.L.F. The first one I used was a turquoise blue with a slight gold shimmer in D20 (It doesn't say a name sorry) and the second with a navy blue called Midnight.

To finish it off I used MAC Plush Lash Mascara and Urban Decay, Perversion 24/7 Pencil Eyeliner just on my waterline.

 

 

I hope you like the look! Please let me know what you think by leaving a comment below. I like finding new blogs at the moment so if you've got one please send me a link!

 

Love & Peace x

Happy Endings...

Hello blogging world! Wow this is weird, I haven't done it in so long! I don't want to bore you with why I haven't blogged in ages but I basically lost all motivation and people brought me down. However, It's a new year and I have beautiful people in my life that make me smile and give me the encouragement I need to pursue my love of makeup! I feel like a very lucky girl!

Seeming I haven't done a makeup look in so long for you guys, I thought I'd start the year with one! I haven't really done them recently because I haven't had a decent camera but my wonderful boyfriend has kindly lent me his! Isn't he a sweetie...

I couldn't be happier with the quality of the pictures! I'm so fussy when it comes to lighting etc that it's nice I can relax so much with a camera! Please Click on the pics for a better look! They look amazing, I hate how they come up so small on here!

 



I've fallen in love with an OPI nail polish called Rally Pretty Pink, which is a gorgeous pinky, purple shimmer with a golden duo chrome, I would of uploaded a picture of it but it's a bitch to photograph so apologies! Anyway, my look is basically based on that polish, which I thought might be a cool idea for a makeup series? Corresponding makeup to your favourite nail polish... what do you guys think? (that's if anyone reads this! If you're like me, you just look at the pictures!)

 

 

 

 

The shadows are all a bit of a mix really. I started with Urban Decay PP, NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk and then patted on the purple shade from the Sleek Idivine Acid palette all over my eyelid and blended it out with MUA's shade 18. To draw attention to the centre of my eye I used Highness from Sleeks Ultra Matts V2 palette in the outer and inner corners of my eye and also lightly in the crease and blended out on my lower lash line. This alone looks amazing, but I love a bit of sparkle so I added UD's Half Baked to the centre of my eyelid and slightly blended it out. To Finish off I used Pillow Talk from Sleek's V2 palette as a brow highlight, UD's Perversion eyeliner pencil and Mac's black lash Push Lash mascara.

I didn't really know what to do with my lips so I went GOLD! I started with Natural Nymph from ELF, then applied a clear lipgloss and patted on Urban Decay's Half Baked eyeshadow. Finally I added Fairy Cake lipgloss from Butter London and lips are done. PS: WEIRD uploading a photo of my lips. I hate them!

 

 



And that is that! Look done :) I forgot how much I LOVE playing around with makeup and trying new things! I've recently bought loads from Urban Decay (fallen in love <3 again!) and can't wait to try out the Glinda Palette!

I think I'm gonna do a quick post from my phone at some time, just to show you all the looks I've done and stuck on instagram (soo lazy) because I really loved some of them! But I'm definitely going to start photographing them properly for you guys!

I hope you like it and can't wait to do another look! Please let me know what you think by writing a comment below :)

Love as always! x
