2 Looks:Taupe Eyes, Bright Lips

 What seems to be my go to look lately, is Taupe Eyes & Bright Lips. I think I'll be wearing it quite a bit in the winter, although I should have taken advantage of the extra sunshine we have been getting this autumn because it has now turned dreary. Anyhooo.......... enough about the weather, lol.

NYX Cream Blush Review + 2 FOTD from last week

 ..::NYX Rouge Cream Blush in Hot Pink & Orange::...

 I already own Glow & Natural (As you may know, because I use them alll the time lol), but for as long as I have these I don't think I will be buying any other cream blushes in a long time!

So I just hadd to do a review on these 2 babies, I wish I had other brands to compare them to but I think they don't need to be compared to anything else, lol!

Water Marbled Nails Take 2

So a while ago I water marbled my nails for the first time. At the moment I think I'm going through a stage where I want my nails to look nice all the time, that sounds silly I know lol but I've always kept my nails quite long & they've always been healthy & strong but these days whenever they get to a certain length they snap. :( Also I'm having trouble with 2 nails on my left right hand, because I'm using that hand all the time they keep snapping. But this is for another post lol.
I just wanted to share some pics of my nails atm! Well I've actually had them like this for almost 2 weeks haha.

 Right hand- you can see the nails that are doing badly :( lol

 Left hand- Before the cleanup!

Apologies for the messyness! lol and that my nails are different lengths. If u want to have a go at this def search water marbling on youtube. There's many great tutorials on it.
On the first nail I did, I realized I forgot to do a colour base coat first. But then I thought it would look pretty cool like it would be kinda see through so i left it with all the nails. On some of them you can see that. Also I like how all the patterns turn out different, although not all of the swirly designs turned out right. oh well! I like how it is not a uniformed pattern. Oh and I had just used some cheap generic nail polish colours too.

• I studied Japanese for 5 years in school but sadly I've forgotten most of it (Unless I look back at my notes haha)

• I'm terribly afraid of spiders and bugs, but I cannot kill them if i see them 'coz i "feel bad for them" lol

• I have been with my SO for 3 and a half years :)- now engaged :D

•  I don't think I'm going to ever fully grow up... I love Disney movies and I think its ok to act immature once in a while!! (but then I'm still only 19 :D)

•  I loved art in highschool, but haven't painted for a while, and now makeup is my art.

• I think I pretty much have chronic hayfever. I first got it when I was 13 & it used to be seasonal, but now its pretty much all times of the year. One day I even sneezed 400 times, literally! Thanks dad! (I was the only one that got it from him XD)

Wet n Wild Lust Review, Tutorial + FOTD

So after seeing a beautiful look on makeupgeek I just had to get this palette. It is my first from Wet n Wild and I am definitely impressed lol. Well yesterday when I received this palette I decided that I would have a good at my first picture tutorial and that I would also include swatches. I would love to hear feedback from you guys about everything!!

Brigitte Bardot Makeup

A few weeks ago at Makeup Geek was an era contest. I decided to go with Brigitte Bardot as my inspiration, so I focused on the winged liner, defined crease, glowy skin & matte lips. What inspired me to go with this look was this photo of Eva Mendes, which incorporated all of these things.

However this photo is obviously heavily photoshopped so no way in hell would i be able to get a look anywhere close to this, lol.  Anywhooo here are my pics!!

Face~
Mac Strobe cream over my foundation. It didn't get my skin as glowy as i wanted but it helped. lol
Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls in beige pearl
Nyx Taupe

Eyes~

Face Of Australia jasper eyeshadow in crease & lower lash line
Nyx JEP in black bean for eyeliner
Falsies from ebay

Lips~
Avon Nude l/l
Revlon Nude Attitude l/s

Hair~
You can only tell in the pic with the lighter background haha but I slightly teased my hair at the crown, then took half my hair from the back and pulled it up a bit so it poofed up some more and secured it with a clip. Then parted my hair in the middle.

So as you can see the eyes were quite simple, not many products needed however it took a little bit to perfect the eyeliner, and even then I wasn't 100% satisfied with it. However I loved the look and I would definitely wear this again, maybe with a bolder lip colour.

Also I would like to know, what was your favourite makeup era or person any era and why??
