Sticks & Stones

I was inspired by one of my newest fave Aussie Youtubers, ChloeMorello. She is so beautiful & does her makeup gorgeously. I am pretty sure this is the video I was inspired by- however mine is not so wedding-y. It was really just the lid colours & placement that I copied haha. I had so much fun doing this makeup! I have also started doing my under eye concealer differently, please let me know what you think! And also around the eyebrows & lips. I'm thinking of posting an updated foundation routine so let me know if you're interested.  Please click on the pics to view them larger! ~Products~ Face: Coastal Scents 15 concealer palette- lilac & yellow for undereye area Studio Direct Cosmetics concealer on blemishes Avon True Luminous oil control illuminizer Vital Radiance Foundation Nyx Wand Concealer in Light undereyes & blended out Australis Perfect Finish Compact powder (which I sadly lost that night out :( silly me for bringing it lol) Nyx Stick Blush in Tul

These are from 2 different weekends but I wanted to do a glittery cut crease & a subtle glitter clubbing look. I used the same Sleek Palette- my go to, dramatic-smokey-eye look Bad Girl in both looks with Glitter by Nyx. These are definitely way too OTT for during the day but perfect for an eye-catching night look.   Silver Glitter & Blue Dramatic Cut-Crease Bad lighting in this look, my skin looks terrible :/. I think having the flu that week would have something to do with it, too. But I just remembered, the Fiancee has a horrible bluish tinged light, yuck! Products Face : (In both) Australis Paparazzi Perfect Foundation MAC Peachykeen Lips: Covergirl lip perfection l/s in Kiss Eyes: Firstly I applied The Face Shop Dual Eye Colour in 'Silver' to the eyelid , and cut into the crease with Nyx Jumbo Eye Pencil in 'Black Bean' and also on the lower lash line & waterline . On the lid I applied the lightest grey 'Blade' from my Sleek Bad Girl . O

We went up to the city for a birthday on the weekend. I had planned to haul even though I'm on my "unofficial no-buy" but it was going to be every second month anyway & I haven't bought anything since mid July (lets forget that one lipstick, though... :)) I've always walked past the Inglot in Garden City (Booragoon, Perth) but new I needed to buy more Inglot ever since last time :) I was looking through every thing & was only going to buy a 5 piece freedom palette until they told me apparently Inglot is shutting down in Perth?? There are only 2 counters in Karrinyup & Booragoon so if you live in Perth, get down there before October 11!  W.A gets so hard done by for everything and now they want to take away Inglot. :(  But since they have only had just over a months notice I'm hoping they are going to build a bigger & better shop. (maybe, we can wish though) The ladies who helped me were so helpful.. I had a list on my phone of some numbers but

I hadn't really have done a green look in foreveer, and lets just say I had some idea's in my head & they actually turned out the way I wanted it to, for once! Greens can be worn toned down in more 'earthy' ways or if you like, you can wear them brightly even if it's just a pop of green or over the whole lid.  Look 1, Mossy Greens  I have no idea what I used on my face... but it's probably the same old foundations I'm trying to use up (why do they seem never ending!!) & also the Sportsgirl blush ~Eyes  Nyx Slide on Eyeliner Pencil in Green Papaya all over the lid & lower lashline I used all Makeup Geek Eyeshadows 1: Shimmermint 2: Poison Ivy 3:Envy- over Nyx Black Bean JEP 4: Seamist 5: Shimma Shimma Before I applied Seamist I blended Vanilla Bean from envy out to the brow bone so they would blend better together. Maybelline Master Precise eyeliner- No idea how I missed those couple of spots, grrr. Lips: Revlon Matte Lipstick in Strawberry Sue

Woo, no more winter here, and so far the first weekend of spring had been amazing! And then of course it's been freezing during the week but this weekend is meant to get better again. It was perfect weather especially as I had a friend come down from interstate, and it had been 11 years so it was perfect to do all the touristy things & go to the beach. This makeup was done a while ago now but it will probably be a go-to spring look as it was so easy & light for warmer weather.
