Face of the Day: Rose Gold Eyes!

Welcome back!

Today's look is a little different for me as I'm not one to branch away from gold/brown eye shadow shades... or at least I wasn't until I met the naked 3 palette! In case you hadn't guessed, I am OBSESSED with the latest addition to the UD naked family. I'm still experimenting so hence all of my looks lately have been achieved using this palette.

I felt as it's now spring it was time I used some different colours and copper/rose gold is never usually one I reach for but I actually love this look, it really works well for those who have green eyes and my eyes are mainly green and I did notice that these colours really made them pop and stand out :) (once again I had trouble getting pictures that really did the eye look justice, sowwy guys) here are some pictures of my creation:

the eyes were actually a lot more metallic and sparkly but the photo's didn't really pick that up, so lets just use our imaginations for now ;) it still looks super pretty in the pictures though so it's a start!

what I used:

Urban decay naked 3 palette

transition shade: limit

all over shade: burnout 

on top: trick (had to use fix+ as this shade is VERY chunky and gives loads of fall out)

crease: nooner

outer corner and crease to add depth: mugshot

inner corner and brow highlight: emite makeup in NECT (I think, it's not very clear on the packaging) then over top- shroom by MAC! 

Autograph gel eye liner

l'oreal telescopic mascara

lips: mac prep and prime, hue & creme cup over top

bronzer: mac refined golden

blush: benefit cosmetics coralista

highlight: MAC in for a treat (LE)

I decided to use a nude shaded lipstick in this look to make sure all attention was on the eyes, hue is a very yellow/orange based nude so I just swiped a bit of creme cup over the top in order to add a little more colour to my lips.

I also used a coral blush in order to tie it into the orange-y-shades theme! :)

What did you think of this look? Tell me in the comments below! Thanks for reading<3

Face of the day: Dramatic Day Look!

Hi Guys,

welcome back and yes it's another make-up look! This is what I wore to work the other day, I was so pleased with this look I had to share it with you. It's quite dramatic and smoky for the day but I love it! 

I did find it really hard to get good enough pictures as no matter what, the pictures just didn't do it enough justice and show it in all it's glory, I did edit them in order to try and get the colours to show better -but alas I tried my best and here's the snaps I got :)

Tried using a super bright light so that's why I look so ummm... shiny? haha.

Here's what products I used to achieve this look:

eye base: MAC painterly paint pot

Transition shade: limit

all over: strange

on top: liar

crease: nooner (blended)

corner: factory & darkside

lid: bit of buzz

(all urban decay naked 3 palette)

brow & inner corner highlight: MAC shroom

autograph gel eyeliner

l'oreal telescopic mascara

brows: MAC pencil -lingering

bronzer: MAC refined golden

blush: MAC at dusk (LE)

Highlight: MAC shape the future (lighter shade) (LE)

lips: MAC creme cup

MAC's 'at dusk' is a very subtle pink blush that looks so natural on the skin! especially when applied with a stippling brush. I decided to pick the most natual pink blush I had in order to stick with the romantic theme like a natural 'flush' on the cheeks, but then the blush allowed the attention to still be focused on the dramatic eyes. Definitely didn't want anything to harsh for the day time especially with such defined eyes.
I also decided to use MAC creme cup as it's my go-to lipstick that goes with everything. It's definitely a 'my lips but better' lipstick colour so looked perfectly natural as well. 

Thanks for stopping by!
Hope you liked this look and let me know what you thought of it!?

Face of the day & Harry Potter Studio Tour!

Hello again!

Okay, so today's post is another FOTD! I LOVE doing these type of posts and I hope you enjoy them too.
Last week we went to Harry Potter Warner Brothers studio tour which is located in Watford near London. It was A-MAAAAAZING! I felt emotional as soon as I walked in because a) I'm a big cry baby and b) WHY HAS IT GOT TO BE OVER :'( *ahem* anyway, I had plenty of travel time in the car to work on my make-up so I made the extra effort; here's what my make-up looked like: 

WOAH CLOSE UP! ;) I went for a romantic eye look with full pink-pout lips! I lined my lips this day (which I'm usually too lazy to do!) which made them look so full and plump so they really tied into the romantic smoky eye look. On the lips I used Rimmel Exaggerate lip liner in 063 east-end snob; then MAC creme cup all over!

I used my naked 3 palette on the eyes, I used MAC paint pot in painterly as a base. My editing has made it look like I had harsh lines but I promise in real life there was no harsh lines, I'm a blend-aholic!  

Here's a better look at the eyes. I'm so pleased with how they turned out :)

For the rest of the face I used:

Revlon Colorstay foundation for combination/oily skin in Buff

MAC pro-longwear concealer in NC15

MAC translucent powder to set under eyes

MAC brow pencil in lingering
Autograph (M&S) Gel eye liner in black (MY NEW LOVE!!)

L'oreal telescopic mascara in black

MAC refined golden bronzer

Two Faced perfect flush blush in candy glow

MAC veronica's blush as a highlight (just the pale colour) 

-I'm not a MAC-aholic I swear ;)

I think that's it for makeup! (hope I haven't forgot anything) and now to share just a couple of snaps from my harry potter day out :)

Butterbeer! mmmm! not my hand by the way!

My souvenirs! Guide book and time turner keyring

The casts dressing table -I spotted MAC items ;) 

It was such a lovely day, what made it even better was there were loads of people there that have travelled from different countries to come see this! It was so nice as even american's were there and america have all the good stuff such as disney world, harry potter LAND, universal lands etc etc! (yes I am jelly-bean of you lucky people hehe) So was nice we had something special that people travelled to Britain to come and see :)
