Urban Decay Electric Palette Look #2!

Hey guys,
I am having so much fun with the Urban Decay Electric Palette! I can't get over how pigmented and flawless the pigments are.
I know I've only just put a look out but it took me soo long to do I didn't want to wait around any longer for another!

I am so tempted to wear this look out tomorrow! It's crazy bright but it looks amazing - I can't believe how well the colours blend together!

In this look I have used Slowburn, Savage, Jilted, Urban and Chaos. So half the colours in the palette!

I started with ELF cosmetics primer and NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk as my base and Slowburn on my entire eyelid.

Next I applied Savage into my crease and blended out with Mac's Blanc Type, then darkened my crease using Jilted.

For a finishing touch I applied Aura from UD's Glinda Palette.

To my lashline I applied Chaos very closely to my lashes, to later darken Urban which went over the top, and blended out with blanc type - to create a type of gradient effect.

On my waterline is Rockstar 24/7 pencil from Urban Decay, and to create my wing I applied Perversion liquid liner.

...I think I'm a bit of an Urban Decay Junkie!

Lashes are the Princess Lashes from Born Pretty Store and Urban Decay Supercurl Curling Mascara.

So that's today's look, I hope you like it as much as I do! This is definitely a favourite of mine from recent months looks :)

Urban Decay Electric Palette Look!

Hey guys!
I'm sorry I've been gone for a while, I've had a lot of hours at work lately and it's completely tired me out! I've had this look in my back pocket for a while and I absolutely love it! I needed to put it up asap - I'm just annoyed asap took so long!
Anyway here's the look, a bit picture heavy! I hope you like it :)

As always I started with my Elf primer and NYX jumbo eye pencil in Milk as my base.

To start my look, I applied Thrash over the inner two thirds of my eyelid. I cannot believe how pigmented this shadow was! I was expecting Thrash, Savage and Slowburn to be maybe a bit clear but the colour payoff is insane!

In the outer third and in my crease I applied gonzo which came out a stunning sky blue over NYX JEP in Milk, and sea blue over Thrash. In the very outer crease I use Fringe and a little Chaos.

On my brow bone I blended in Mac's Blanc Type with Gonzo to create a smoother finish and worked both shades of Aura from Urban Decay's The Great and Powerful Oz, Glinda Palette into my inner corner for a little bit of shimmer.

My eyeliner is Urban Decay's Perversion Liquid Liner and Lashes are the Princess Lashes from Born Pretty Store.

Under my lower lashes I applied Slowburn which is a gorgeous, bright shimmery orange shade.

On my waterline is Eyeko Skinner Kohl Liner in a light pink shade which I am loving at the moment. I do love using black eyeliner but it can make your eyes look so much smaller sometimes. The payoff in Eyeko's liners are fantastic and definitely worth the price.

Mascara is Urban Decay's Supercurl Curling Mascara and that's the look done!

I hope you like this look guys, fingers crossed I will have something new for you soon!

Sleek Snapshots Palette Look!

Hello everyone!
I was going to leave this look for a few more days, but I love it too much so I thought I'd post it now!
I recently got 4 more Sleek palettes, some I was lucky enough to get for Christmas, and I want to do a look using every one! Or maybe two or three...
So here's the first look, using the Snapshots Palette!

The colours in this palette are incredible to work with. Some swatch a little different to how they look in the pan, which I kind of like, makes a nice surprise! Humming Bird has an amazing golden shimmer which you can't tell until applied.

This is what the pretty palette looks like! The colours are: TOP (L-R) Summer Breeze, Sand Dollar, Kiwi Flower, Lotus Flower, Humming Bird, Tequila Sunrise

BOTTOM (L-R) Sand Walker, Washed Ashore, Sunset, Green Iguana, Purple Haze, Magenta Madness.

I started with ELF primer, and NYX jumbo pencil in milk as my base. I then used Sand Walker on a small, flat angled brush to line where I wanted my crease.

Next, I patted on Summer Breeze using a small C brush onto my entire lid.

Using Purple Haze I went over Sand Walker to define my crease and blended slightly.

Using a small fluffy pencil brush I blended Magenta Madness into the Purple Haze and upwards. Using a pencil brush, I went over the crease with Purple Haze again and blended into the outer half of my lid. To create a smoother transition I finished my lid with Green Iguana.

In my inner corner I applied Sand Dollar (which I love!) and used Purple Haze and Sand Dollar under my lash line. I applied Purple Haze with a flat brush on my waterline.

Eyelashes are #100 from Eylure and my mascara as always is MAC Plush Lash and Benefit They're Real. They were beautifully together!

So that's my look! I hope you like it as much as I do! I can't wait to do another look with this palette, but first, a look with all the others!

I hope you like it! And thank you for all your lovely comments! It always brightens my day reading them :)

Disney Series: Sully - Monsters University!

Hey guys! Sorry I've been MIA for a while! I've been staying with my boyfriend and although I've brought my laptop with me (with the intention to blog) we've been so busy that I haven't even had time to turn it on! I've missed it so much!
But better late than never! I've had this look to post since before the film came out, so it's a tad late but I love Sully so much, I have to show you guys! And I'm completely in love with the Katy Perry Color Pop for Eylure Lashes! So here's the look!

APOLOGIES FOR THE HUGE GAPS! Blogger is being and arse and I can't work out why the gaps between the photos and the text are so big! If anyone knows how to fit please help! Sorry!

I kept him bright but simple! My main inspiration for doing sully, were the lashes! They were the perfect colour blue so it had to be done!

HE'S JUST SO FLUFFY! I went to see the film last week and loved it! Personally I don't usually like prequels but this was amazing, I loved finding out about their pasts and how it all started! Sucker for Disney...
So anyway, here's the look, I used my Sleek Matts V1 and some shades from the V2. Also Aura from The Glinda palette by Urban Decay. I LOVE that duo shade - its amazing! Puts the finishing touches to just about every look I do!


The Spots were a bitch! haha It was a lot harder than I expected it to be! I cut up teeny tiny pieces of cello tape and stuck them on once I'd primed and gone over my lids with NYX jumbo eye pencil in milk. however then trying to fill them in was a nightmare! I used a sparkly E.L.F eyeliner and then used the brightest purple shade from Sleek Matts V1 palette on a lip brush (because it was the toughest) to apply the shadow.

I absolutely love these lashes, but the biggest problem for me was the seam! It was so thick it make it impossible to glue on properly and there's no way I could have worn them out which is gutting because they were so pretty! I'm definitely going to have to hunt for the same type of style, but without the blue layer, as I think that's what made it so thick!






















 Look how pretty they are! It makes me almost want to cry... the style is just so perfect! I ran the same colour blue which is on the majority of my lids, along my waterline and used the same purple under my eye.



















Still dying over the lashes... For my mascara I used Benefits They're Real - which I wasn't a huge fan of at first, but I've started using it over the top of my MAC plush lash and we're getting on alright at the moment... I love how it lengthens my lower lashes, makes me eyes look so much bigger!



So that's the look! I hope you guys like it, I'll try to get another look out soon! I haven't got any ready though so if anyone's got any ideas please let me know and I'll do my best for you! x x 

Disney Series: Kevin from UP!

Hey Guys!
I'm enjoying doing this Disney Series so so much! I love everything about Disney so to be able to recreate some of my favourite characters for me, is amazing! I hope you like the latest addition to the series - Kevin (the bird) from Up! I kept thinking about who I could do next, but nothing was really coming to me until my boyfriend reminded me of Up! As soon as I thought of Kevin I knew exactly what I wanted to do!

Kevin's so bright and colourful, I knew this was going to be a fun one to do! I wanted to keep it pretty simple still, so it's wearable for a festival or something, so didn't go crazy with feather eyeliner or like what I did for Iago from Aladdin.

All of the gorgeous bright colours are from Sleek V1 Mattes Palette. I'm having so much fun with this palette! I bought it a while ago now and haven't really found the time to use the colours so this was the perfect opportunity for them to show their potential and I LOVE IT! Also, if you're using bright colours, to make sure they pop as much as they can, use a white base first! I used NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk.

Eyelashes are by Eylure #146, and they are so so beautiful. I love the feathered effect they give, really girly and pretty! I did have a little miss-hap with them though! I should really cut them down a little but I forgot and managed to glue them too close to the inner corner of my eye and they hurt like hell! I didn't notice it at first, but my eye started watering and made my eyeliner smudge ALL over the yellow eyeshadow!!! I tried to fix it as best as I could, but there's a lesson learnt! CUT DOWN EYELASHES TO FIT YOUR EYE! Remember that one next time Georgia...

Anyway, that's my look for Kevin from Up, I hope you guys like it!

If you have any ideas of characters you'd like to see my attempt please comment below!

 

And I've just got a new Instagram purely for my makeup it's EnchantedMakeup so please check that out :D

MY OPI Nail Polish Collection!

I don't think I've ever been more excited to do a post! I LOVE OPI Nail Polish, and at the moment I'm suffering from Glandular Fever so I'm not really up to doing a makeup look, so I thought I'd do a post on my lovely polishes :)

I'm gutted some of the pictures aren't great and SORRY my nails are in such bad condition, where I work it's hard to keep them looking great! And as much as I tried to apply the polish well, for some reason I decided to do it on my right hand, which meant painting with my left?! WHY! So Apologies!

MY O.P.I collection is only 36 polishes at the moment, but I only discovered them 2 years ago, so I guess it's grown quickly!

If anyone wants to see a look using one or some of the polishes then comment below and I'll try and do something with them for you :)

Click on the pictures for a better look!

1 Coat

Start-To-Finish Base and Topcoat - I used 1 coat of this under every swatch, and it is by far the quickest drying base coat I have ever used! Massive Love!

3 Coats

Number One Nemesis -  This one is only a mini, Look how cute it is! I bought a few from The Amazing Spider Man collection, and I have to say, as much as I LOVE Spiderman and O.P.I, I was so disappointed! None of the colours were as nice as I was expecting! On the packaging, it says 'Show your metal in this sparkling nickel.' I would definitely recommend using a base colour and applying this colour as a finish, its much too thin to use on it's own unless you like layering up!

3 Coats

The World Is Not Enough - From the Skyfall collection, I have to say this is another one I'm disappointed in! It's a lot like Number One Nemesis and definitely needs a base colour! Described on the packaging as 'This rosy silver is as addictive as it is beautiful.' I disagree... (good start to a post ehy?!)

2 Coats

Your Royal Shine-ness - Such a beautiful metallic silver! Super super shiny and looks amazeballs. From the Serena Williams Grand Slam England Collection.

1-2 Coats

Alpine Snow - OK I LOVE this white! It looks like tipex which is pretty much what I wanted! I always use it as a base when I do marble nail art and it really makes brights and neon colours pop! It was one of the first O.P.I's that I bought, which would explain why the formula now sucks! Not their fault, mine! It's gotten a bit too thick and I need to thin it out before I use it again properly, but I absolutely love it! From the Soft Shades Collection.

2 Coats





Stranger Tides - From the Pirates of the Caribbean Collection, This is a really weird colour! But I kind of love it... It comes out a little streaky but it makes a really cool base for nail art, using greens and golds. It looks so different under different light, but its a murky, off grey, zombie-esque green! It's pretty awesome... I've never seen another green like it!

2 Coats

Mermaid's Tears - Also from the POTC collection, this is by far one of my favourite colours! If I want to paint my nails but don't know what to do with them, I just reach for this colour. It always gets amazing compliments and if the almost-pastel mint green colour wasn't cool enough, the name will make you want to buy it! Jus' casually walking around with MERMAID'S TEARS on my nails... normal day.

2 Coats

Live And Let Die - turned out to be one of my favourite from the Skyfall collection. It doesn't look that great in the bottle, but as soon as you apply to your nail, the glitter really comes out in the polish! It's the type of glitter you would be able to get away with at work, it just gives it a nice shine instead of being really in your face! It says 'Burn the candles at both ends in this private jet black.' I definitely wouldn't call it jet black, more of a green tone but the gold glitter is definitely reminiscent of a flickering candle!

3 Coats

Just Spotted The Lizard - was the colour I was most excited about it the collection! It pretty much looks like spilt petrol in the bottle but sadly it doesn't show on the nail! Only the greeny-gold colour shows. Described on the packaging as 'Be seen in this reptilian yellow-green' Which I guess does describe the colour the shows up on your nails, just a shame the pretty blue doesn't! :(

2 Coats

 Ogre-The-Top-Blue - From the Shrek Collection, is a bright bubble gum blue! Gives amazing coverage and looks super bright on the nails! Love it!

2 Coats

Last Friday Night - From the Katy Perry Collection is a blue, holo, glitter in a jelly formula. It's definitely only a top coat, but does have a slight blue tinge in the jelly itself. This and Alpine Snow were my first two O.P.I's! Such a pretty glitter, but is a bitch waiting for it to dry!

1 Coat plus OPI Start-To-Finish Top Coat

 Turquoise Shatter - This is a beautiful colour for a shatter! I own a couple of the Barry M ones but they're all very bland! This one had beautiful shimmer in it and with a top coat it looks amazing and shiny! I should've really swatched it over a different colour so it would stand out more buuuut I didn't.



2 Coats

Into The Night - 'This perfect midnight blue was made for prowling.' Pretty much sums up the colour! This for me was the colour I was least looking forward to from The Amazing Spiderman Collection, but turned out to be my favourite! It was the only polish that seemed to apply evenly and didn't disappoint me!

2 Coats



Grape...Set...Match! - From the Serena William's Grand Slam England Collection is super pretty! A dark purple/pink glitter with a lot of sparkle!

 

3 Coats



Rally Pretty Pink - Another from the Serena Grand Slam Collection! I think I was in America when they came out, so picked up a few! This colour inspired my last Eye Look. A really stunning, pinky purple with tonnes of gold shimmer! Looks so beautiful in the sunlight and amazing over a purple polish. 

1 Coat

A Grape Fit! - My go-to purple colour! So simple and so pretty! Easy to apply, amazing formula - only takes one coat for a perfect coverage! Amazing! From the Great Pair Collection.

2 Coats

 Planks A Lot - This is very similar to A Grape Fit! Just a bit more pastel. Still a gorgeous colour but probably easy to find a colour that's pretty much the same for a lot cheaper!

3 Coats

Significant Other Colour - THIS IS AMAZING! I am in love with this colour! It looks amazing on it's own, or over a purple, green, blue or pink base! It looks beautiful and so different over other colours. I need to find a nice yellow and see how it looks over that! It's a subtle lilac with amazing green duo chrome!

 

3 Coats

 Princesses Rule! - My amazing friend got this for me for my birthday! Totally sums her up! Cute, Pink, Shimmery and Girly! From the Princess Charming Collection.

2 Coats - Streaky!

 Your Web Or Mine? - Another from The Amazing Spiderman Collection! This pink is pretty standard. It's pretty, applied nicely but was super streaky! Doesn't really show up in the pics, but unless you're pro at applying polish, it will happen to you too!

1 Coat

 Come To Poppy - From the Nice Stems Collection - really pretty pink! I'm not sure why I bought this one... I'm not really a pink kind of girl but I must have my moments! Amazing coverage, only 1 coat application.

2 Coats

Get Your Glamour On - This colour was designed for Glamour Magazine, I'm not sure why but its soooo pretty! A coral pink, which for me if the only way to go if you're going pink! I don't like being too girly! I think this was one I picked up from TK Maxx, I'm not sure where else I would have gotten one which was only for Glamour Magazine!

 

2 Coats

Love Is A Racket - Another Serena William's Grand Slam colour! I definitely liked them when they came out! I forgot to take a pic of this the other night so quickly did it now! Can't believe I missed one! To be honest I wouldn't mind this colour as a lip gloss! A dark pink packed with the same colour micro glitter.

 

1 Coat - added touch up for chunky glitter!

 The Impossible - This is awesome. The liquid sand texture is pretty strange to me though! I live on an island, so trying to not get sand in your nail polish is something I usually try to avoid! However I do love this bright red colour, and the chunky glitter looks amazing. I love the little stars but they don't seem to want to come out of the bottle and when they do, they don't lie flat on the nail so it doesn't last very long! From the Mariah Carey, Liquid Sand Collection.

2 Coats

 The Spy Who Loved Me - Another from the Skyfall Collection, this one caught my eye! I love the pillar box red with the teeny tiny gold sparkle! Very Unique! Added a blurry picture so you can see the glitter.

1 Coat

 Danke-Shiny Red - From the German Collection, this Ruby Red is amazing! It looks so Royal! Big love for this colour, and only 1 Coat! Very Classy...

1 Coat

Wocka Wocka! - This one is pretty similar to Danke-Shiny Red but a little darker and not as shimmery on the nail. I got this one first, I LOVE The Muppets so couldn't not have anything from the collection! I do also have Pepe's Purple Passion but I've lost it!!! Soo gutted! No Idea where it's gone which is why its not included in this post :(

1 Coat

Every Month Is Oktoberfest - I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS COLOUR! Ohh it's so pretty! Imagine adding a bunch of shimmer to red wine. That's what this is. It looks so beautiful under every light and is the type of colour you can wear at any age, or anywhere. Loooooove this!

2 Coats

Tease-y Does It - This colour is so beautiful. From the Burlesque Collection, it can look very plain in the shade but under any light it shines! It's the colour I use to make my Christmas Pudding nails at Christmas! Works Perfectly!

2 Coats

 

Bronzed To Perfection - From the South Beach Collection, I got this colour is a set with a few other in TK Maxx. It wasn't the one I was most looking forward to getting, but I'm glad I've got it! It's a muddy bronze with gold shimmer and looks amazing with a tan!



 

2 Coats

 

Pros & Bronze - My final one from the Serena Collection... I think! A great mixture of sparkle going on here! A huge array of golds and bronzes! Very eye catching.

 

1 Coat



 

The Man With The Golden Gun - 18 carat gold top coat. I think that says enough don't you? I'm a very lucky girl! My Boyfriend got me this as part of my Christmas present and it's just beautiful! I love it but I don't want to waste it at the same time, dilemma! from the Skyfall Collection.

 

3 Coats

 Golden Eye - 'All eyes will be upon you when you wear this glorious gold.' From the Skyfall Collection, a super glittery gold, which was obviously needed for a 007 collection! Looks amazing over the top of The Spy Who Loved Me, not a colour I would wear alone, coverage isn't that great!

1 Coat plus Start-To-Finish Top Coat

 Gold Shatter - A really pretty colour but I don't really see why it's a shatter?! You can't really see past the glitter to see the pattern it makes, would make more sense if it was a shimmery gold polish rather than being pack with glitter.

2 Coats

Hot & Spicy - From the Hong Kong Collection, this is a beautiful coral-orange. A really pretty, easy to wear creamy colour.

 

I do have a No.36, but I've lost it for the second time! I have no idea where it is but its Pepe's Purple Passion from The Muppets Collection! On the hunt for it now...

 

I may do a collection post on my other Polishes... I have so many Barry M and Nails Inc colours! Will wait and see..

 

Love & Peace! x
