Eyes Of The Day #1





I play with eye make up often, whether it be for college or a special event. Either way, I love a good statement eye look and change it up whenever I can or have the time to experiment. With it being autumn, I have really been loving the more cranberry and soft browns to complement the seasonal change in colours. 

For the base, I used the Maybelline Colour Tattoo in 'Metallic Pomegranate' which is a gorgeous warm berry with a pink undertone to not only help the shadows last but to complement and intensify the crease shades.
As I said, I have been loving the berry tones this season, so to intensify the base colour I packed on the darkest shade in the Mayelline Diamond Glow quad in 'Coral Drama' on the outer third of the lid and blended it in using a Sigma E40 Tapered blending brush. I'm going to do a separate post on this product so I won't say too much except the fact that I can not say enough good things about this quad.
I the gently buffed in 'Buck' from the Naked palette through the top of the shadow and where the base and the dark colour meet for a blended transition.  
Lastly, I used 2nd to darkest shade in the same palette and lightly applied it as my inner corner highlight and slightly on the lash line for the added definition and glow. 
For the liner, I used Maybelline Eye Studio Gel liner to line my upper lash line and slightly wing it out at the ends. 

I think this is a great look for both casual or evening if you want to smoke it out at the lash line for added intensity!

MAC LIPSTICK: Vegas Volt








Being a lip junky, every time I enter the realm of MAC, the lip counter always seems to draw me in like a fat kid with cake and I end up walking out with a new lip product without myself even realising it.. I know that is surely classed as some sort of problem but this colour was just to perfect to pass up. 
I absolutely adore coral lips through the summer or if I feel daring enough then sporting it through winter is by no means out of line. I know summer is sadly drawing to a close but I feel like purchasing this shade is helping me to prolong that summer feeling.

REVIEW: Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick






Le Swatch:- 

'111'- Left
'110'- Right 




After purchasing these two lip products a couple of weeks ago, I have been doing a little bit of a mental review since these were the formulas I yet to have tried.

NOTD #1



After the miraculous weather change that the UK has been having recently, I have, of course, taken advantage of the sunshine and bagged myself quite the tan
 So in order to enhance my newly bronzed skin I decided to paint my nails in a bright Coral almost orange toned red shade, perfect for the summer! 

I used Barry M's 'Coral'. I have always been a fan of Barry M nail paints and I remember it being the first vanish I bought and now in fact makes up the majority of my collection. 
So I highly recommend this shade for summer for that bright, almost neon pop of colour and just Barry M nail polishes in general!
