Go insane, throw some glitter make it rain

I couldn't help the title lol, a couple of weeks ago we went to a festival that had bands & DJ's including Avicii, LMFAO (my fave! they were awesome haha), Bloody Beetroots, Pnau & many more.
I wasn't sure how I wanted to do my makeup but I wanted it to be more festival-like so at the last minute I threw in some glitter & felt like Ke$ha haha. Too bad it kinda looks like dirt from afar. I actually had a spray tan done a few days before, I will post those FOTDS later but here it is quite natural, just the way I like it.

that stray eyebrow hair will be the death of me ahah

Makeup & Hair Essentials Haul + more :)

When going to Perth for a weekend, one thing is guaranteed: Shopping! Since I don't get to do it too often I take advantage, and it had been a good 6 months since we last went up haha. I have named this my makeup essential haul since most of the makeup i bought is what I call "practical"- no fun eyeshadow's & lipsticks, but things I need. haha if you get what I mean.

I got all of this from Priceline. They have a huge section of this makeup brand called Models Prefer & I liked the look of their stuff & tested it a bit. Its reasonably priced too.
1: Models Prefer eyelash curler. I needed a new one badly, my other one didn't seem to fit the shape of my eye properly but this does. Review to come soon. I think I may just chuck all of the same brand into one big review lol.

Summer Trend: Colour Blocking. Plus my very own vid!

In almost every magazine I have read since the end of winter, Colour Blocking has had to be the biggest trend by far. Whether its in the form of clothing or accesories or makeup, the use of bold bright colours in block form is totally gorgeous!
Here I was inspired by this look by this gorgeous blogger http://solomag.se/killercolours/2011/09/tutorial-contrasting-colours/
(please note she now has a new blog which is here)
Ok so my look is more than inspired.. .I love the contrasting colours she chose so I wanted to keep them :) I think any colours would look good together, and it doesn't really matter if they clash or not!

just a litte bit of editing.. haha

Products:
Milk JEP
Red- 120 palette
Orange- Madd Minerals Drop Dead Fred to blend red
Blue- Madd Minerals in Mega Beast
Maybelline Line Allure Eyeliner

Nyx Peach for cheeks?
Nyx Summer Love L/S

So I have finally gotten my verryy own laptop, yay :) I wanted to make my first ever video for you guys.. eeep
I know I wouldn't have thought of the idea myself, but I thought it would be interesting to hear how eveyone else sounds, so If you feel confident making a video then do so :) I mean, If I can post my ultra dorky, embarassing video I think that you could easily post one ;)

.. Haha, even if nobody decides to post a video, or if you already have youtube videos (link me!)I don't mind I just waned to post this video so you will be able to hear my Aussie Accent... even though I didn't think I had one before, I def. sound aussie here haha


Much love & kisses

Neutral with a kick

Firstly a hello & thank you to the new followers!!
Haha I'm so lazy.. I have to edit my pictures all at once, & by then I may as well just post them all together. Its a lot easier haha :) Again they are neutrals, I haven't been too inspired with colour lately except for a few looks now & then. On to the pics!!

New hair + Ice Queen FOTD

My hair was in desperate need of a colour, I liked the colour that I had before but I've had red in my hair for so long that I wanted to go more violet-y. & it still has some red in it so I like that :D
These pics were taken the day after so I made sure that I slept on my hair nicely haha. & to go with my new hair I wanted to do a more "special" look so yet again I tried a cut crease look (again haha) which I thought I had better try to name.

Summer Fresh Makeup

Just some more pictures with the same FOTD from my foundation tutorial...
When I was doing it I had more of a Victoria's Secret look in mind as I had just watched Transformers 3 the night before (major girl crush on Rosie & her hair & make up!) but in the end I think I strayed from the inspiration- oh well, I still like it & I think I may do this in summer when its too hot 2 do anything else because its quick & easy- minus the winged eyeliner, I think I might skip that.

My Foundation Routine (Pic Heavy)

So although my foundation routine has changed plenty of times over the years I am quite pleased with how I do it now, but I hope that I continue to improve it :)
So I think the title explains it all, lets get to it ;). Product list/ pictures are at the end

 Apply your primer! Beware the naked skin. You will see that I have blemishes to cover up, you can't really see the extent of the scarring though.

A few different FOTD's + Nails

Hey guys, just a compilation of looks again.... nothing too exciting but since I took the pics I may as well post lol. Please excuse the oh so creative names of the looks. Its too hard to name them!!!
~Tropical Blues~

Just a bright blue look using colours from the 120 palette. Not a look I liked with my eyes closed but oh wells.
