Sticks & Stones

 Hey beauties! This is an older FOTD that has a subtle sexy 60's vibe with a slightly defined but more blended crease, and a small cat eye that extends all the way into the inner eye corner, creating a sexier feline shape for those ladies who have rounder eyes. This is a very cool toned look so you can use warmer crease colours if you would prefer, but I've also kept the cheeks & lips cool toned as well. I really adore this look & I hope you all like it! Products Face: Unsure of the foundation/ concealer combination as it is a bit heavier then what I have been wearing lately, but I think I used Nyx Pinky Blush, this was before I had Laguna so bronzer would have been a Christian Dior sample I had at the time & Nude by Nature Eye Definer to contour with Mac Lightscapade as a highlight. Eyes: UD Naked 2 Palette: Foxy & Bootycall Applied together all over the lid with Bootycall as a highlight on the browbone & inner corner Tease Blended into the crease w...

A few weekends ago we went to a masquerade ball. Of course I wanted to do big, dramatic makeup for it lol. It was a really good night... when they started playing good music lol. The dress code was meant to be strict but there were quite a few people in short club dresses and people without masks... which is not what a masquerade ball is about! lol. Anyway, apart from that, it was reallly hot in the ball area and because my mask was tucked into my hair it was hard to take it off without my eyes smudging lol.  Before changing:  Products: Australis Paparazzi Perfect fdtn Coastal scents concealer palette Nars Orgasm Nude by Nature Eye Definer- contour Nyx Chrome White E/S- Highlighter TFSI Nyx JEP Black Bean- Cut into crease, outer lid, lower lash line.

Go Charlotte, It's your birthday! Yes, I finally turned the big 21. (that's what I said about my 18th, feels like yesterday but its already flown by). I had some friends around for drinks on Saturday night  and on the night of my birthday (Tuesday) we went out for dinner with the family. I suppose nothing else has changed except now I am actually classed as an adult (How scary!! :P) since I've been able to legally drink & go to clubs since I was 18. But now I can go to the US and do it all as well! To the makeup.... even though the drinks was pretty casual I wanted to go all glam with the makeup. As you do ;). I thought I would stuff it up but I didn't, woohoo! My close up pictures were taken before redoing my eyebrows & foundation. After applying primer, start with a thin brush & black cream/gel eyeliner, drawing the top line just above the crease following the crease curve, and then wing it out & join it to the lashline. Fill in all except the inner co...

Woohoo I can finally honestly say I was happy with how this look turned out! I would definitely do this look again for clubbing or maybe even new years, I would probably add some glitter & it would be good to go. Also I think it this goes with any outfit. So I was inspired by this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fq-lEu73GI&feature=channel_video_title, & I thought it would be harder to get my eyes even but I got it fairly quickly. It doesn't matter if it is not perfect anyway because as they say "eye's are sisters not twins." Eyes: Lid: Stila Kitten. Also a tiny bit on the middle of the lower lash line (lll) The lightest colour from Barbie Crease: Nyx JEP Black Bean with an angled eyeliner brush and on the lll. Black from 28 palette blended with a pencil brush over top of Black Bean. A little bit of the black from the same Stila palette on the lll. Maybelline Eye Allure Eyeliner.

 Every now & then I check my stats & the one post that is always up the top is this Brigitte Bardot inspired makeup look I did a while back, although I cringe now but I feel that I have improved a lot, especially with my skin. :). Day My hair looking lush, with a bit of help. On the eyes I used Nyx chrome white pearl e/s with a bit of Stila Kitten all over the lid with Satin Taupe in the crease for definition & blended out with a lighter brown. Eyeliner is Maybelline Eye studio liquid e/l (I think thats the name), however I dun goofed it up :( Cheeks are looking like NYX pinky blush & lips are a mixture of Revlon Nude Attitude & CG lip perfection in kiss (love this combo! Revlon NA helps take out some of the frostiness of kiss) Only just a few more pageview's for all time. haha Night Had a party to go to & I had the worst time getting ready (burnt cheek while doing my hair, lots of frustration) but after all that trouble we didn't even stay for...
