MAC Tough Love Look X

 The Mac tough love collection promo has been one of my favourites so far as the it looks very bold with purple and red (two colors of which I love) and as the promo only involves a lip look it inspired me to create my own eye look for this, so here it is :)

Eyebrows: Sugarpill cosmetics love+ pressed eyeshadow
 Lid + Lashline: Sugarpill cosmetics love+ and poison plum pressed eyeshadow
Lashes: I have no idea where these are from :/

Lid: Sugarpill Buttercupcake, flamepoint and midori pressed eyeshadow and Urban Decay Liquid liner in perversion
Lashline: Sugarpill Afterparty and tako pressed eyeshadow mixed together
Waterline:Sugarpill midori pressed eyeshadow

Barry M 'Vegan' Haul

So I wasn't really looking for new make-up but i'd never tried Barry M before and heard that there stuff was awesome and the cute packaging kinda sucked me in and after looking at these products on the website found out that they were all vegan too just in case that interests any one...anyways on to the review/haul...

 

At the Barry M counter I picked up the essential products that I use every day Mascara (Intense Black 3-in-1), white eyeliner (white kohl pencil), Eyeliner (Wink black marker pen), a blush (in terracotta) and a lipgloss (toffee).

Barry M Blush in Terracotta (bl6)

The blush looks kinda like a matt bronzer colour in the compact but on my skin it looks like it had deep pink undertones ... maybe thats just me though :S I love his product and find it has amazing lasting power on top of my moisturised skin ( i don't use foundation unless it's needed) and the colour is amazing and doesn't make me look like an oompah-loompa like some drugstore blush/bronzers have made me (don't worry I took them off before i walked out the door and thew them in the bin :P)

Barry M 3-in-1 Mascara

This mascara brush is amazing and doesn't pile the mascara on thick allowing me to build it up and make sure my lashes don't clump and the formula is nice too it doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes and stays on all day without giving me panda eyes and can be removed easily with some hot water. I like to use this in my lashes too (after I have wiped as much excess as possible off the brush) so I can have madonna eyebrows (not intense black but just slightly tinted) because i'm sort of insane like that :P

Barry M Wink Marker Pen

I had been dying to try this eyeliner out with it being a new product and all and similar to the MAC penultimate eyeliner from the Wonder Woman Collection which I know a lot of people had a hard time using due to the jumbo size and although I have never used MAC's original penultimate eyeliner (the thinner one) I will say I like it jumbo size as I can create a thick cat eye with ease and have more control over

Prom Post !!!

So this post is a long time coming and finally settling with the fact that i will not find a picture of me in my dress on my own (even if i crop, too many hands and people in the way) I have decided to post now (better late than never ?).

Nails!

For some unknown reason this picture won't enlarge but this is just red polish (that i forget the name of) and OPI Black Crackle polish (THIS STUFF IS UH-MAZING).

Hair!

                      I chose this picture as it's the only picture i have of the detail in the back with the cornrow/ french plait in the side and the curls. I couldn't decide whether to have my hair down or up so i did half of both...well my hairdresser did she also did my nails for me too :D

Make-up!

Sorry about using the same pictures as my previous  post but i was in a rush and forgot to get ones on the actual night but it looked exactly the same anyway. My inspiration was twiggy (minus the drawn on false lashes) and makeup used was Active Cosmetics Falsies, DUO eyelash glue, Sugarpill cosmetics love+ and Bulletproof, Too Faced Like a Virgin shadow (for my eyebrows), Beauty UK's liquid eyeliner in Gold (for my eyelashes), MAC Viva Glam Gaga 2 lipstick, Revlon Colourstay foundation in buff, maybelline dream matte powder in rose ivory and Barry M's 3-in-1 Mascara, Wink Eyeliner Pen, White kohl pencil, Blusher (not sure on the shade but it's more of a bronzer colour) and their lipgloss in toffee (it smells so good that I wanna eat it:L|)

 

 

THE DRESS! X <3

Practice Prom Look x

So tommorrow is the day of my prom and i've been busy all week gathering all the little bits and pieces i need to complete my outfit and decided it was time to practice my prom makeup (i was going for a twiggy kinda style minus the drawn on bottom lashes we couldn't get those right) and i'm not gonna take credit for this my mum did it and i'm pretty pleased with how it turned out :D

Revlon Colourstay Foundation Review

After trying plenty of foundations from benefit to clinique to bareminerals I could never find a decent one so I then decided not to wear face make-up and on a daily basis I don't, unless i'm going places where i know people will be taking pictures no matter how much i run away from the camera, so I decided I had to find a decent one and when scouring makeup blogs and guru's channels I heard  Revlon's Colourstay foundation being highly praised and comparable to MAC so decided to check it out. As I have dry skin I got the foundation for normal/dry skin (their is also an option for oily skin) and found that if i apply this with a brush or sponge it drys too quickly so isn't very easy to blend so i like to apply it with my fingers and then buff in with a large face brush/powder brush. Overall I like this foundation it lasts all day and dries too sorf of a powdery finish but doesn't look cakey. I would like their to be more of a colour choice but it's a drugstore foundation so I guess that can be overlooked but my only problem with this foundation would have to be the packaging first off the glass bottle makes this heavier for travel and also with no pump it tends to leak all over my makeup bag when not stood up and a great amount ofproudct is lost around inside the lid and around the bottle.
