A new amazing way to dye hair!

So when you go and get your hair dyed or touched up you normally have the hairdresser use a brush or foils.
Well now there is a completely new way HAND PRESSED COLOUR


This method includes clear plexiglass and a knife, this allows multiple patterns to be drawn onto the glass sheet. The hair colour is pressed onto the sheet a large amount of times and is placed on the glass in blobs.
Then they will take a section of hair  place it on the glass and use the knife to smooth the sections across the colour.

Its a new trend that is taking off and it looks fun too!

I wasn't a fan of the 70's style until...

I never saw myself loving 70s fashion but these revived pieces have changed my mind!
Id loveto one day own these and see if it suits me, but until then I can only dream!

A different way to wear a headscarf!

After a dream I had of things getting stuck in my hair I decided to use it as inspiration, by intertwining a headscarf into a french braid.


This was my first attempt.

I sectioned a small layer of hair from the very front of my hairline and clipped it forward, I then bobby pinned the head scarf to the root of my hair behind this layer. 
I then back combed the layer I had clipped forward and brushed it backwards to cover the scarf. 
Then sectioning the layer of hair into three (but making sure to include the scarf in one of the sections) I then carried on doing a french braid.
With the vast amount of different patterns and colours you can get head scarfs in you can easily match them to any outfit.

Catching the last of the summer sun in style.

As summer is coming to a close skinny jeans, oversized jumpers and parker coats are ready to come back out. I struggle in summer as Im not an overly girly person and summer embraces girly fashion. So I rocked up a pink paisley jumpsuit with a black lace kimono and a velvet choker.


I got the kimono from H&M

And the playsuit from Pull and Bear

Deep purple and smokey.

I tried to create a purple smokey eye that wasnt too heavy for the day time but could be slightly darkened or even worn out the same at night.

Heres the end result.

I did this using the barry M smoking hot palette (of course) I use the matte black, blusher, and dark metal grey in the crease. I concentrated the matte black towards the outer edge of the crease.
I then used pressed eye shadow by MUA cosmetics in the shade electric purple. I packed the purple on to the lid and blended it slightly into the crease.
I also combined the matte black and the electric purple to underline my lower lash line.

Heres what the colour looks like without the use of barry M.

Get that smokey eye on point!

The dark smokey eye, always angered me with fallouts, harsh transitions and the endless battle to blend. On those few occasions it went 'okay' within hours panda eyes just happened!

I have found the perfect pallette to create a great smokey eye (in both matte and glitter) along with highlight shades. It does come with a blush but I find the blus to be a perfect colour for the crease of your eye. It blends great and hardly any fall out with the powder.

Im talking about the Barry M smoking hot palette!

They also have videos on how to apply the shadows for other looks, they do this with all the eye palettes!
