48 hour tattoo eyeliner

48 hours, I know what you're thinking...yeah right. Okay it may not last 48 hours but it sure lasts more than 24, even when working out or swimming. The only problem I have found is when you are purposefully trying to remove the eyeliner it is a bit tricky.
The thin brush that comes with it allows you to do thin to thick lines and it easy to apply. So far it comes in two colours shown below.

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!

Another Mac lipstick dupe at £1!

So I have another dupe for the mac lipstick in the shade Myth which cost £15.50. The dupe is by MUA Cosmetics and totals at only £1. Its their lipstick in the shade Totally Nude.

Mac - http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/
Mua - http://www.muastore.co.uk/

The lipstick by MUA is more matte than Mac but a clear lip gloss or balm can give it the same sheen.

Holiday essentials.

Cant wait for your holiday? Only problems.... Frizzy hair, makeup sliding off and never knowing what to even pack in the first place, Here are a few of my holiday essentials to help!

Instagram



First for your hair, macadamia oil! Be careful not to put to much in and make your hair greasy. My hair is a natural frizzy mess but after using it and blow drying my hair straight after a shower its smooth, sleek with a bounce.
Best part of this besides the pretty packaging its only 99p and can be found in stores like home bargains and £1/99p stores.




For people who wear make up, here is my second essential, TALCUM POWDER/SETTING POWDER! You can use both to 'bake' your makeup. It keeps your makeup in place for longer and stops it sliding half way down your face.
Here's a video link if you're unsure what baking your face means.

Now clothes, or more importantly the statement bikini. Normally this would mean a red or white bikini but pastel are finally making it! Here is one from river island which I love and fingers crossed hope to one day own.

Of course you'll also need those statement bold shorts too! The best selection at the best price I've seen are on Boohoo.com, plus there are always offers on clothes and delivery.

For a more rock chic look I'd go for anything denim and ripped, they are normally my type of shorts.

Step by step guide to full over lined lips.

The best lipstick  for over lining has a matte finish, this is because your lips are set forward and a shine or silk finish shows this.

Sorry for my face, please ignore it ;)

First start with no makeup on the lips.


2, Following your qupids bow but about 1 cm higher draw what looks like a little mustache. I like to build this up as obviously your lips are more forward than above your qupids bow.

Step 3, join the mustache to the top lip. MAKE SURE YOU JOIN THE LINER TO YOUR ACTUAL LIPS IN THE CORNER. If you dont do this you will look like a fish/blow up doll (trust me I did it) then line underneath the bottom lip in the center (again about 1 cm away from your lips) I again went opver this line to thicken it.


Step 4, Join the liner to your natural bottom lips in the corner.



Step 5, Colour in the liner with lipstick!


There you go, fuller lips with no pain.

QUICK TIP Cheap way to set makeup!

Instead of buying expensive powder to set your makeup simply use talc!

Its much cheaper, last longer and makes your face smell cotton fresh. It stops under eye makeup from creasing and you can use it to bake your makeup too!


Natural feeling make up with a subtle lip

I can not express how much I am in love with macs soar lip liner and lipstick in brave. The earthy tones make it great for a little something extra on simple makeup but also looks rock glam for a night out.

I used BB cream to give a more natural feel and less coverage Along with tattoo liquid eyeliner from Boots by seventeen to create a small line at the root of the lashes. A few coats of mascara and then soar an brave.
