Engagement party makeup: Urban Decay Naked 3

Hey guys! Sorry that once again it has been a while since my last post, I am still working on some assignments that I want to get finished before I become more frequent on here again. Oh and I also can't find my camera cord but I've been taking all my pics on my phone and I'm learning how to move the onto the iPad etc (advice on picture placement for the blogger app please!!). I miss talking to everyone and seeing what you've all been getting up to, and I've said it before and will say again but please follow me on Instagram so we can stay more updated together!

So! This is the makeup I wore on saturday night to our friends engagement party. Ive had the naked 3 palette for a couple of weeks and haven't used it for a night out yet, since it was our first night out since I've had it and I knew I had to do something!

Glammed Up | Royal Blue & Silver Ball Makeup

Hey beauties!
A couple of weekends ago we went to a charity ball called The Ball Of Hope to raise money for mental health & Telethon which is an annual Western Australian fundraising organization that raises money for children with illness, so it was a good cause to get dressed up & help contribute towards that. In fact the Telethon child for this year is a girl from my home town so it felt even more meaningful. It was a fun night, we enjoyed a photo booth that they had where you dress up with props. But of course the fun part was getting ready.

You will see my dress in a moment, I was so excited to get and it got here with one week to spare so I was very thankful for that. With the makeup, of course I wanted it to be glamorous & I took the colour theme for my dress and hoped it wouldn't look too matchy-matchy.

Apologies for the pic heavy post!

MAC Blue Brown Pigment | FOTD

Soo this is a really old FOTD that I posted to my Instagram probably a few months back & also in my MAC Samples post to showcase the gorgeous Blue Brown pigment from MAC. It is full of duochromey goodness with a two-in-one colour effect that you can apply & blend, adding more dimension while cutting out on application time.

Elegant Night Time Smoky Look | FOTN

I loved wearing this on a night out for an elegant smoky eye look, I basically copied it from Lilpumpkinpie05 on Youtube from her Mila Kunis Smoky eye look which I have admired for a while now & I would say it is a relatively easy go-to glam look.
Oh & is any body else having trouble with some photos looking squished when uploaded to blogger through your computer files? Anyway I hope you like this, thanks for looking!

Copy Cat Makeup // Dramatic Coloured FOTN

Is it fair to say I was "inspired" by Misschievious on Youtube when I pretty much copied her drugstore makeup tutorial? And although I was drooling over the Sleek Lagoon palette she used, I knew I would have plenty of similar colours I could substitute them for. I love using a darker base underneath bright colours for a bright but smoky look, as done in my Jewel Smoky Eye Makeup, as it brings them out differently compared to a lighter base.

And although this was a bored-on-a-saturday-night-playing-with-makeup-look it wasn't a waste of makeup as we ended up going out in the end. Nothing worse when you do your makeup perfectly and then nothing happens!

2x FOTD: Neutral Eyes, Pink Lips

Hey sexy ladies <3
This is another double post this time featuring neutral eyes & pink lips... both the same concept but very different looks. I will always love this combo! There are so many types of pink lipsticks not to have fun trying them out ;)

~Look 1
This day I wanted to define my eyes keeping it fairly natural, and I wanted to try out my Vau Beauty lashes out. And I was in the mood for some bright pink lips so Viva Glam Nicki was the go!

First product purchases for 2013

Although I technically ordered a couple of these products before the end of last year, I have received them within the new year with much excitement & unfortunately, a little bit of disappointment. So here are my newest acquired makeup products for the year.


First up, my number one baby at the moment. I have been wanting this for soo long so when it finally came back into stock from www.kissandmakeupny.com I had to buy it. I'm sure most of you have heard about it/seen it/ tried it before but it is everything & more. I don't have too many "high end" products so when I do get them I cherish them. It is the perfect colour, doesn't look muddy & orangey, it has a slight shimmer but nothing to upset the face if you use it for contouring, which it is good for, too.

Festive Holiday Makeup

I wore this out to my partners work Christmas dinner, & wanted something a bit festive but not using the typical Christmas-y colours. I also knew I didn't want to wear red lips because I wore them out to dinner a few nights before & it faded & just looked awful, and I'd rather not worry about it!

My skin looks photoshopped, but please believe me that it's not!

Double Post // Purples FOTD // Bh Cosmetics Day & Night //

I bring you a double post of my most recent purple makeup looks using the Bh Cosmetics Day & Night palette, one is a bit lighter & more spring-y & the other is a lot more dramatic. View the colours of the palette here.

Day To Night// Graphic Gold & Black // Ft Katy Perry lashes

I started out with this makeup during the day.... it isn't essentially a day time look but it was day enough for me :P We were in the city for Stereosonic (best day!!) but this was the day before were we got to go out to lunch & shopping with friends and we got to see our niece for the first time in ages! Sorry for the pic heavy post.
Day Makeup

Simple Glamourous Makeup // ft BhCosmetics//

Firstly, wow I have finally hit 300 followers! Thank you to all the new guys, plus of course the old ones :) I hope to host my first giveaway sometime in the near future so stay tuned for that! I just have to find some goodies now :)

 I loved Laurenbeautyy's Special Occasion Video using Bhcosmetic's Day & Night palette and it was a 'coincidence' that I bought it on sale a few days after, and then I though hey I can actually try it now! Mind you I had forgotten most of what she did in the tutorial so I just played along, trying to keep in mind something along the lines of her look.
So now I look back & it is very different, however mine wasn't intended for night time & I wore it to work during the day. (I did use the same colour on the lid & it came out entirely different :S) I still <3 it, though! I wasn't sure whether to name it a day or night look, this palette is confusing me, hehe.

Bh Cosmetics Day & Night Palette + First FOTD with it!

I ordered the Day & Night platte from www.bhcosmetics.com as they were having a sale so I paid $10.50 for this bad boy! (not incl. shipping). You should follow their facebook page because they have so many great specials on all the time!
        I received it on Tuesday and I have been using it ever since.. there are so many gorgeous colour combos you can do, sometimes I even do the unthinkable & use the night colours during the day ;) I'm so bad! :P Infact I like to use most of the night colours all the time since they're so purdy but the light pinks will come in handy for the warmer weather.

 Using flash so you can see the gorgeous shimmers..

Madamemadeline.com small eyelash haul!

Thanks to ChloeMorello on youtube I found the website www.madamemadeline.com (No affiliation to both) which has an awesome arrange of eyelashes!!
When I ordered on there I didn't realize I had to confirm through email my address before they would send it... so after 2 weeks of waiting I went on & saw that I had to! I looked through my emails but then realized as I used our linked paypal account it went under my partners email.... gahh.. so I confirmed and actually knew they were on their way. However by the time I actually received them it had been over a month... oh well it was my fault but I hate waiting! Especially as I was looking forward to something in particular..... Read on to have a look :)

Glam Smoky Eye Picture Tutorial

While I was doing this makeup for an engagement party I thought I may as well take pictures from each step for another tutorial. This is very similar to the eye's I wore here except a bit more glammed up with optional glitter, using the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. Keep reading to see how to do this look!

Smokey Glitter; Subtle or Dramatic?

These are from 2 different weekends but I wanted to do a glittery cut crease & a subtle glitter clubbing look. I used the same Sleek Palette- my go to, dramatic-smokey-eye look Bad Girl in both looks with Glitter by Nyx. These are definitely way too OTT for during the day but perfect for an eye-catching night look.

 

Dolly Makeup

Although I didn't picture dolls when I was doing my makeup this night, I suppose looking back at the pics with how my eyes were lined, my falsies, my high-necked lacey dress & my extremely false-looking smile it would appear that I did lol. So I thought why not name it that, then lol. CSB, right? :) I thought so.

I did this look for my friends birthday, I really only wanted to have big, dramatic winged liner but somehow it doesn't look how dramatic I pictured it to be, lol. Ahwell!

Masquerade Makeup: Drama if you dare.

A few weekends ago we went to a masquerade ball. Of course I wanted to do big, dramatic makeup for it lol. It was a really good night... when they started playing good music lol. The dress code was meant to be strict but there were quite a few people in short club dresses and people without masks... which is not what a masquerade ball is about! lol. Anyway, apart from that, it was reallly hot in the ball area and because my mask was tucked into my hair it was hard to take it off without my eyes smudging lol.

Balayage hair + glitzy club makeup!

I'm so sorry guys, I'm apologizing for the lack of posts again! Soo I got my hair done a couple of weeks back.. mainly coz my stupid roots were showing through haha.. I swear my hair grows too fast! This time she did more balayage through all of it, instead of just a few front sections like before. The only thing I will change next time is to probably just do the base colour through the top sections only to break up the lighter ends. It looks good curled, but there's kinda like a line between the colour when it's straight.
Aandd- I hate bleach, my ends feel yucky now & they tangle so easily! My hair is so much more static when I brush it too lol :(

Apologizing for the phone pics! 

Barbie Girl Makeup!

I wasn't sure what makeup I wanted to do on the weekend for a "Barbie & Ken" themed party, but I remembered an older makeup look where someone said I probably looked like a barbie haha so I pretty much just copied that, so they are very similar. I did like the shape of this one a lot more, though. 
I also did my friends makeup for that night :)

Birthday Makeup! Mod Cat Eye Look.

Go Charlotte, It's your birthday! Yes, I finally turned the big 21. (that's what I said about my 18th, feels like yesterday but its already flown by).
I had some friends around for drinks on Saturday night  and on the night of my birthday (Tuesday) we went out for dinner with the family. I suppose nothing else has changed except now I am actually classed as an adult (How scary!! :P) since I've been able to legally drink & go to clubs since I was 18. But now I can go to the US and do it all as well!
To the makeup.... even though the drinks was pretty casual I wanted to go all glam with the makeup. As you do ;). I thought I would stuff it up but I didn't, woohoo!
