The Creative bugs that comes with new makeup



Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping by :)
I did a little makeup shopping as always and there is just something refreshingly creative about getting new products especially from the brand Illamasqua. Sometimes before bed, before I take my makeup off I will have the urge to put some more on, often in more of a relaxed, no thoughts - just let's see where this goes way.

And this is the final product, a main feature of this was testing out the Illamasqua liquid metal palette - which I find amazing. (It has alot of negative reviews of the website which is plain silly!) It picks up fabulously in the light even from iphone quality pictures.

I most definitely urge this type of creative outlook of makeup, this is my kind of idea of how I can express. As they say makeup is art. If you get stuck in a makeup rut, maybe see if you can find new ways to use the products you have.

I filmed the haul of these products, if you are curious as to what else I bought - check out my youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRGHIL85KFY



As always you guys are amazing. Stay true xxxx

Crazy Goth/Witch/Demon | Halloween Makeup




Starting off my series of halloween looks with one that can basically go with a lot of ideas, witch, demon, goth, evil superhero (my favourite) and it isn't too unattractive, for the single girls haha. 

Pale out face, I used illamasqua rich liquid foundation in pure white, this is optional you could make it simple and just do the eyes. Then from here shade round eyes and out to temples with red, then blend the edges of that with an orange/yellow. Finally for eyes fill in the black smokey eye (gel eyeliner/black facepaint first and set with black eyeshadow), doing it in this order helps everything blend smoother, as if you started with black it would look mostly black and grey, the other colours wouldn't show. Messily draw lines on for viens, do not worry about being symmetrical as it adds to the effect! For black lips, you do not need to buy a black lipstick unless you want too but use gel eyeliner (or whatever you used for eyes) and set with black eyeshadow then apply some gloss! Not straight from wand or you'll ruin the applicator with the black! 

Thanks for reading!! Enjoy xoxox

Cat/Tiger Facepaint | Halloween Look




Hey everyone! 
Just a quick facepaint/theatrical look for halloween or fancy dress! I was just doing this randomly from my head so it is a bit of a mix between a tiger and a cat! Take your pick! Probably could do with more orange but I didn't have any at the time so just a tip!
