Peachy Pinks | Makeup of the Day

Hey everyone! Hope you are doing well! So today I am not going to lie, I felt like writing a post but not actually doing the work that goes into one. So off I took to my photos library for some inspiration and I found this picture of a look way back in the summer that I hadn't shared with my blog. I love the colours and the subtle style of the makeup.

My favourite part of this look is the simplicity of the eye makeup - one peach colour blended all over the eye. (This is from a sleek palette)

I guess today I am missing the spring/summer... days when my skin had some colour! I bet I am not the only one? But this had me thinking, sometimes less is more and I am finding myself reaching for just one eyeshadow to pop all over the lid for an easy go to day look. Obviously a big plus as it's a time saver. If you are a girl of multiple eyeshadows- give this a go, it's refreshing!

Always just trying to show something different from time to time, change is good!

Black Lips | Kylie Jenner Inspired Makeup Look

I think everyone is a little obsessed with Kylie Jenner at the moment. I am loving her edgy style and she keeps sporting a black lip with usually a bronze coloured eye which inspired me to try out this out today, I know this won't be everyone's cup of tea but it's just something new to look at even if you wouldn't try it. (She just posted another instagram of it yesterday also).

What I used to create my look:

Face Products - Bare Minerals Ready Foundation in R250

NC20 Mac Select Cover up concealer (For under eyes and blemishes)

Dior Bronze in 002 Honey tan (To warm up the face)

Lancome Blush palette in 02 Nectar Lace (contour, blush and highlight)

Brows- Mac Brow Pencil in Fling and Lingering

Eyes- Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study

Eyeshadows- Mac woodwinked, Cork and Shroom

Eyeliner- Elf cream liner in black

Mascara- Lancome Hypnose 

Finally the most important aspect, LIPS-

(I overlined my lips slightly to follow her style)

Mac Eye kohl in smolder as lip liner (super soft and easy to use)

Topshop Velvet Lips in Raven (Amazing pigmentation and not to dry on the lips, you want it to be velvet or matte so it doesn't smudge, otherwise it would be too hard to wear!)

Kylies Look
