Eyeliner 101

Now I did pre-warn on a previous post that content would be sparse in the next two months due to A levels, but a whole week... Is that dust starting to form on here? I couldn't avoid my blogging itches any longer so let us begin with a simple question...

What is a world without eyeliner? Certainly a place with smaller eyes, thats what. Eyeliner has and always will be a not so secret weapon in any girl's make up bag and the variety on offer makes for an endless list of options.

THOUGHTS: Rimmel Apocalips in 'Across the Universe'

 Since Rimmel's Release in early 2013, the Apocalips hadn't really crossed my mind until a few new shades were let loose around christmas. 'Across the Universe' immediately caught my eye, being a darker blue toned red. Not to mention the fact that I witnessed Susie from Hello October swoon over this particular shade just days before on both her Youtube channel and Blog. That alone lured me in to eventually caving. 

NOTD #10 : The French Manicure

I just survived the first ever interview of my life, This one being a university interview. I was less nervous during the actual process than I thought I would be, but I guess I could count that as a positive. 

Of course, I wanted to look a little more clean cut, and so the ever divine french manicure seemed like the most classiest of options; I mean, you can never really get tired of such a timeless manicure. 

It surprisingly doesn't take me all that long to do, so with this in mind, I think I'll be sporting this more often. 

I used Collection's French Manicure Pink base and Barry M's 'White'.

MAC RiRi hearts fall Collection: RiRi Woo

Lets just take a minute to marvel at the splendour (as my biology teacher would say...) at this simply divine packaging. I'm an absolute sucker for pretty packaging, but when sights turn to Rose gold, well then thats enough to make me weak at the knees. When first witnessing the collection's release and pictures nearing the end of summer, I had my eyes set on RiRi Woo as wasn't fast enough to snap it up in the previous collection. 

Manicures Of The French

Now I'm not all to sure if the french manicure actually originated from the french but it does seem a tad strange if say, the Portuguese discovered it and named it 'french'. 

However I'm pretty sure that when it comes to the humble manicure, the French manicure will almost always certainly come out on top. Nowadays, I find that acrylic nailed white tips can come off a tad too fake what with just about every girl caked with make up, dangling extensions, topped off with the over sized fake nail somewhat giving the once sophisticated manicure a negative impression. Don't get me wrong, I think acrylics can make such a difference but I do suggest not going over the top and choosing a size and length that do not match your hands. 

The Classic Red lip

The classic red lip makes a women a women... if she does it right that is. Its classy, its sophisticated but at the same time, its makes you look effortlessly put together. It portrays a strong, independent women with power and in the modern day, those are getting more and more frequent... and yes, we are still talking about the humble lipstick.
