Snake kimono

Hey guys!!!

I am really sorry that i have not posted in a while, i have been so so busy with uni work and have pretty much been in lounge wear for the past few weeks as i have been up to my eyes in multiple different projects so my outfits have certainly not been blog worthy!

So this is a smart/ casual outfit that i wore to my best friends birthday meal, it was a casual evening out so i didn't want to get fully dressed up so i jazzed up a simple black crop top (Primark) and black (Levi) jeans with a long grey snake skin print kimono (boohoo.com) and some really cute black lace up heels (primark). I find just by wearing a cute pair of heels can change the way an outfit looks and how you feel in said outfit so dramatically! 

To finish off i wore my MAC Relentlessly Red lipstick which just added a pop of colour to this outfit! I also accessorised with a silver statement necklace and my Kate Spade envelope looking clutch bag!

I will try my best to post more!! I hope you like this post, don't forget to check out my past posts!!

See you next time.

Halloween makeup- doll

Hey guys, so I really hope you are enjoying these Halloween makeup tutorials that I am doing, bare in mind that I am NOT a makeup pro so they're not the best but I think I have done pretty well considering its only basic makeup I am using! Anyway... todays makeup is a creepy doll which  is so easy to do and so effective!

Step 1- put your normal foundation on and mascara on your top lashes- not the bottom ones and put on winged eyeliner and using a pencil eyeliner draw a semi circle under your eyes and fill It in with white face paint.

Step 2- under the semi circle lines, do lots of little lines to create the under lashes. Put on the brightest blusher that you own to make very rosy cheeks. For this next part I used a brown eye brow pencil to create the freckles on each cheek, for this stage you can do how ever many dots you desire! Then draw on your eye brows- bigger and darker than you would normally have them.

Stage 3- LIPS- using your white face paint, cover the whole bottom lip in it, going over the bottom edge to make your bottom lip look much bigger, this will be the base for your top set of teeth.

Under the white bottom lip, using eyeliner/ black face paint, draw another lip shape as big/ small as you want as this will be the darkness between the top and bottom teeth.

Then and another layer of white paint under the black to create the bottom set of teeth, this should be a similar size to the top white shape. These stages should be going down your chin to create the large mouth look.

The next stage is to get your bright red lipstick, the brighter the better I think and cover your top lip like you normally would with lipstick, and the outline the white and black shapes you have just made and make the bottom part thicker as this will be your bottom lip.

The final mouth stage is to draw lines down the mouth like I have above- this creates the teeth, they should be about 1cm wide- but this size is totally up to you. After this, from the corners of your mouth, using eyeliner, draw a line down to the bottom of your chin, this creates the puppet like mouth element.

FINISHED!! So easy right and really effective!

So I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial and find it easy to follow!

See you tomorrow!

Good luck & enjoy!

Halloween makeup- pop art

Hey guys!! I hope you enjoyed yesterdays skull post, this is another idea for Halloween but less scary and very easy!

So step 1, put on your normal makeup- foundation, bronzer, blusher, mascara then use a brightly coloured eyeshadow- I used green and yellow as it stands out, then put your eyeliner on.

The next step is to colour in your eyebrows- the darker the better and make them bigger than you normally do, then choose a bright lipstick, the one I'm using is 'girl about town' by mac and this will be the base colour for your next step.

Step 3- use eyeliner and make little lines on your face, like I have. This will create more shape and structure to your face. Then using eyeliner again, draw around your lips, flicking it out at both ends, using black eye shadow, shade in the corners of your lips making them look bigger and bolder, then using white face paint add little bits to the centre of each lip to make it look like light is hitting them, making them look even bigger and in your face! (close up below)

                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Step 4- using the white face paint, add white dots all over your face finishing this pop art look off, I used the end of a brush to create these as it was the perfect size for the dots.

The final step is to draw a tear shape under which ever eye you want, use eyeliner to do this, and colour in the shape you have made in blue eye shadow.

DAH DARRH! Finished!

I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial, see you again tomorrow with my third halloween makeup idea and check out my instagram for more photos and videos on these!

Enjoy!
