Saturdays FOTN


Quick post about my makeup on Saturday.... I wanted something somewhat different, with a nice bold lip...






I love my MeMeMe bronzer! and I have only just started using the blush palette that I chose from Fashionista a few months back... I didnt use any falsies, so when Im not using them, I love to use Elizabeth Arden Lash primer and then coat my lashes with a good mascara. The lipstick is by Sleek, its a MATTE lipstick, which last forever! I had to touch up only once! Body shop eyeshadow, which is a white with green relfective particles as highlighter on the brow bone (it seriously looks nice, it just isnt picked up in the pic) ... before applying any eyeshadow, I used my all time face eyeshadow primer by Too Faced (Too Faced Shadow Insurance) then I used NYX Jumbo Pencil in an orange shade, then layered the bronze Barry M pigment over it... 

If you have any particular questions regarding this look please feel free to message me :)

Sugar Skull Inspired Halloween Makeup

Dia De Los Muertos... a.k.a Day of The Dead...a.k.a Sugar Skull Makeup 


As per usual Halloween comes around, and as much as I say 'este año me disfrazo' (this year I will dress up) I never do! lol anyways, this year although I didnt quite dress up as something, or go out for the occasion, I did decide that I would atleast attempt a halloween inspired makeup... recently I have been really into Skulls, well Skulls on clothes, accessories etc... so I took inspiration from an old Mexican tradition and attempted a 'Dia De Los Muertos' face... see the results below... 






for a first attempt, not bad right??? I was actually quite impressed with it, and I didnt go out and buy any actual face paints, it was done by using the always reliable NYX Jumbo Pencils, Loose Pigments, eyeshadows, eyeliner (pencil, liquid & gel)... the lashes that I used on the skull side where some awesome lashes from Makeup Forever :) 



next year I def want to def add more detail, or I might attempt something completely different... 

have an awesome & safe Halloween Weekend :)
