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.

Lime Crime, Revlon & Bourjois Lip Haul!

Hey guys,

Thought I would share with you some of my recent lip purchases as I have really been enjoying a few of them! 

As superdrug were having a 2 for £10 deal on all Revlon Lip products I was quick to take advantage and grab a few products, as well as one boujois product that I had seen a lot of hype about and wanted to try out. I also made a purchase on www.love-makeup.co.uk after seeing a lot of instagram posts of Lime Crime products I wanted to get some for myself! 


Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter
 Strawberry Shortcake £7.99
Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter
Juicy Papaya £7.99

                I'm obsessed with these lipbutters and now want them in every colour, they give a nice wash of colour to the lips without being as dramatic as lipstick and also feel very moisturising, these have become a subsitute for vaseline for me!  

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain
Honey Duce £7.99
Revlon Colourstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick
Front Row £8.99
 These unfortunatley are my least favourite purchases :( my only problem with the lipstick is the colour, it is almost like a frosty light pink on the lips which just isn't my thing. The balm stain was dissapointing, I was expecting it to be like the Bourjois Lip Crayons however this does not go on creamy like the Lip Crayon, it is very dry and pulls when you apply it. Not a fan!

Bourjois Colorboost Lip Crayon
Peach on the Beach £7.99
This as you can see is well loved and used, ever since buying it, it has been one of my go to lip products for everyday use! I love the colour of this and the way it feels on the lips, it is so creamy and feels extremely moisturising. It also contains spf15 which I love during this strangely long summer we've been getting as my lips can get very dry in the heat.

Lime Crime Candyfuture Lipstick
Babette £11.50 
Lime Crime Candyfuture Lipstick
Geradium £11.50

After buying these lipsticks I can see what all the hype is about! They are so pigmented and opaque which is hard to find in nude lipsticks especially, I always find nude lipsticks a bit more transparent than bright coloured lipsticks but Babette is completely opaque and looks especially nice with a dark smokey eye. Geradium is just a beautiful colour that I can't wait to wear more of. These Lime Crime lipsticks are also very creamy and not drying atall.

What lip products are you loving at the moment?
