Zebra Print,Pinkness & Sparkles

Heya chicas,today I have tried to do something a little more challenging. For the past few months Ive played safe with my makeup and always done looks Im confident with and that I have a little practice in! Well today I thought I would add that little bit more to it! I had a brainstorm and put together something completely different with a little bit of color and sparkle added to it!

*DRUMROLL* I present my zebra print,pinkness and sparkles :D Aha this is what Ive called this look. Its the latest addition to my makeup portfolio {as part of my application to university}

For the eyes I used a white eyeshadow from FACEFIX, I then went on to completing the stripes with a black liquid eyeliner by Collection 2000. After I done the zebra stripes I thought hmm black and whites boring maybe a splash of color so I added a little pink line near the tear duct and a longer line at the corner of the eye! The eyelashes are Eyelure Girls Aloud-Nadine. Hmm *fun* For the lips I used a pink eyeliner and lipgloss by Barry M. I then went onto adding little gems with eyelash glue onto the lips giving it that little umph and adding abit of sparkle and glamour! And I had my newest look!

I absolutely love it and Im very pleased with myself.This is my second attempt at zebra print and this is definately an improvement to the first {check my blog}

Heres the completed look.

Leopard Print Lips

Heya chicas,so I was browsing youtube looking for something to add to my portfolio. Something a little funky and different. And I came across a video tutorial for pink leopard print lips. I straight away knew I HAD to try this look on myself. I love,love,love leopard print and think it makes such a great makeup design!

The leopard print lip design was very easy to achieve and was all done using affordable makeup! I completed in literally 5 minutes. I used a pink lipliner by Barry M to get the solid pink color and mixed it with a little Barry M lipgloss {not too much because your lips become to slippery and the eyeliner wont go on!} I then used my own initiative for the spots! The spots dont need to be perfect,remember every leopard has different spots. I done the spots using a black liquid eyeliner by Collection 2000. And hey presto I had me some pink leopard print lips!

I absolutely love this look and I am pleased to be able to add it to my work!

Remember Im NOT a professional,Im 19 and wont be starting my uni course until next year!

Here is the completed look.

Heya Chicas

I thought I would update my blog with some new makeup looks as I haven’t done one in quite a while. I’ve been super busy doing..NOTHING!

Well tbh I’ve been feeling very stressed lately life has taken it’s toll but Im trying to look on the bright side and stay positive.

The first look I’m going to show you is a makeup inspired by RIHANNA.

I see this look posted on KANDEE JOHNSON facebook page but I think it’s a look she hasn’t completed. It was requested by a fan of hers and I was immediately drawn to the bright colors so I thought I’d give it shot.

Remember all looks are done using AFFORDABLE makeup.

Yellow-ARABIC EYESHADOWS

Black Eyeliner-COLLECTION 2000

MASCARA-COLOSSAL

PINK BLUSH-ARABIC EYESHADOWS

LIPSTICK/GLOSS-BARRY M

Here’s the finished product

Heya Chicas,
Tonight I decided to create yet ANOTHER leopard print eye look as I got great feedback from my last one.
I decided to keep with a bold color and this time went for an aqua liquid eyeliner by FACEFIX which I used to create the aqua spots. A black liquid eyeliner by COLLECTION 2000.For the base I used a shimmery light grey by FACEFIX.For the lips I used a black eyeliner by RIMMEL and an aqua liquid eyeliner by FACEFIX. 



This look is going to be added to my portfolio to present at LONDON COLLEGE OF FASHION UNIVERSITY next September. Its a really affordable look to create because Ive used affordable make-up. I will start using more pigmented make-up such as MAC,NARS,COASTAL SCENTS etc after x-mas but for now I want to show the nation that these looks CAN be created with affordable make-up as I know not everybody can afford such expensive brands.
All feedback is very much appreciated. Any requests of posts you would like to see are also welcomed.

And chicas dont forget to hit me up with an requests that you have! Leave all feedback and comments below. I want to hear every iddy biddy tiny thing you bloggers have to say!

Heya Chicas!
WOW am I excited. I've literally just this moment created a look for the FIRST time which I am so proud of. Im working on building my portfolio for Uni next year for my fashion make-up degree. So I decided to experiment on my little sister. Ive created a PINK LEOPARD EYE & MATTE PINK LIP LOOK. Obviously this has been done before but bare in mind im 18, NOT a professional, I havent had NO lessons, and I use affordable make-up to create my looks so you chicas can try it at home! 

Believe it or not I created this look using shimmery pink eyeshadow dust by FACEFIX, pink eyeliner by BARRY M,a lip brush and mascara (I run out of liquid eyeliner so I used the lip brush and mascara clever ayy ;])



For the lips I used pink lipliner by BARRY M and volume boost sugar pink lipstick by COLLECTION 2000.


Im really happy with what Ive managed to do and my little sister LOVES it.
Please leave your feedback! Im open to all opinions!
