MAKE-UP LOOK: Black Cut Crease

Hey guys,
Just a quick post here showing you the look I created after doing the winged liner for my previous post I got a bit carried away with my liner brush and ended up with this...


I quite enjoyed this look and decided to share it with you guys :)

To create this look, starting with winged liner already on I used my Zoeva Winged Liner brush to cut the crease and then blended upwards with some black eyeshadow. I then applied two sets of lashes on the upper lash line and cut up another set of lashes and stuck them to the lower lash line in small sections. A very easy look to do and also wearable, remove the bottom lashes and you have a great party look!

Winged Liner: Zoeva Winged Liner Brush


Hey guys,

As a lover of eyeliner I'm always looking for brushes and products to make the deathly chore a bit easier and I seem to have stumbled upon a brush that does just that! For whatever reason the Zoeva Winged Liner brush (Zoeva Haul Post) does the job in half the time of any of my other brushes. It is not some revolutionary shape of brush and doesn’t have magical bristles that apply liner in one quick stroke, however I think it is because of how thin the brush is so you can build up the thickness of the line instead of starting with a thick line and ending up with liner all over your eyelid. The size of the brush head also helps as it is not as small as say the MAC angled brush, so it creates long thin lines instead of short stubby ones. It doesn’t make doing winged liner completely mistake proof (I think that comes with many, many years of practise!) however it has recently become my go-to eyeliner brush. Here are my favourite ways to wear winged liner using No.7 gel liner in black, enjoy...


(Ignore unplucked brows!)
 My favourite way to wear eyeliner is with a bright lipstick, above I wore MAC Morange. I love this look espeically for summer :)

MAKE-UP LOOK: Purple Party Eyes

Hey Guys,
Very nervous about posting my first make-up look! I Didn't know how much effort was involved in creating a make-up look and then capturing it accurately on camera, it took me a long time to get pictures I was pleased with but here is the finished look followed by a simple step by step, enjoy :)


1. Apply MAC Phoolf! to inner corner of the eye and the brow bone.
2. Apply Hustle from the Urban Decay Naked palette all over the lid and blend the edges.
3.Apply Creep from the same palette to outer corner and blend, continue to apply and blend until you are happy with the colour.
4. Using any black gel liner (I used No.7) line upper lash line creating a flick at the end.
5. Using any black kohl liner (I used MAC smoulder) line water and tight line.
6. Apply mascara to top and bottom lashes, once dry apply your favourite lashes.
7. Once the glue is dry go back over your top lash line to cover the lash seem.
8. Fill in eyebrows go back over your highlights and tah-dah!

For the lips I applied Lime Crime Babette which is a beautiful nude that won't take any attention away from the eyes.
