So Hard

Music Video Inspired Makeup

As I mentioned in my previous post I have done a couple of RIHANNA inspired make-up looks. This one was inspired by one of the makeup looks from her music video

‘SO HARD’

which you can view below.

My boyfriend actually told me to do this make-up so I thought I’d give it a shot. Its a very bold statement. She fashions strong,bold eye makeup and nude lips.

Again this look is AFFORDABLE.

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.

Okay I have already said this but I am so sorry chicas!

My blog has literally came 2nd place in my life and it used to be 1st!

So Im here to say IM BACK & IM NOT GOING ANYWHERE!

My blog is now NUMERO UNO in my life!

So where to pick up from?

I done 4 make-up looks today! Just to make up for how much Ive been slacking

I'd like to show you the first one which was inspired by look I found on Google.

Its a pink & black funky retro look.

It was created using a pink pigment from ARABIC EYESHADOWS, a black pigment from FACEFIX, a white pigment by FACEFIX and a black liquid eyeliner by COLLECTION 2000.

Chicas!

Eeeeeeeeek

Im super excited

Last night I thought Id go a little more EXTREME!

Whilst browsing through youtube I came across a look called 

'Anime Eyes'

For those of you who DONT know what an anime is the Japenese shortened word for animation.

So you guessed it! Animes are japenese cartoons. If you still dont know type anime in Google and a picture will come up! There just cartoon character with these big eyes. Cool right :]

I thought I'd give it a shot as me and my baby sister were bored and I thought hmm I really need to liven up my blog!

This look was created purely using a black RIMMEL eyeliner, a white FACEFIX highlighter powder & a marine blue ARABIC eyeshadow.

Creating anime eyes is all down to the imagination.

I added a pink ribbon to my sisters hair and some light pink lipstick from COLLECTION 2000.

I had her smile and show her dimples and VOILA I have me my own ANIME DOLL :D

Have you tried this? Would you like to see any other colors? Want more information on this look?

Heya Chicas,

Ive done yet ANOTHER leopard print look but using different colors obvi

This is going towards my portfolio and is a look most of my friends and family always request!

So I do it again and again with different colors.

As I mentioned in my previous post I received a gift from my other half's little sister.

48 Arabic eyeshadows. They are very pigmented and have lovely bold and vibrant colors.

This one is created using what I like to call 'Marine Blue'

I used a light cream/gold shimmer eyeshadow for the base.

The outlining is done in Liquid eyeliner by COLLECTION 2000.

I created the lip color using the same eyeshadow and little vaseline.

What do you think of this color? Would you like to see any other colors? Have you tried this yet?

Heya chicas,

Time for a nunu blog I think :]

I would like to introduce you to one of my newest looks which I named

*DRUMROLL PLEASE*

Sunset Eyes

^_^

I recently received a gift from my other half's little sister {so sweet of her}

48 Arabic Eyeshadows! The pigment in them is so strong and amazing.

All for £5 BARGAIN!

I created this look using a PINK,PURPLE,WHITE AND CREAM/GOLD.

-I used a very light white on the upper eyesocket/browbone area.

-I then used a coral pink towards the front of the eyelid blending it with the white on the browbone.

-Next I used a purple blending it with the pink working my way outwards and blending with the white into the browbone. 

-Last but not least I used a little cream/gold in the corners of the eyes and finished off with a thin application of mascara.

I was inspired by a fairy princess halloween look I saw on youtube and decided to re-create the eyes myself.

  Muah enjoy!

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.

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!

Heya Chicas,

Today I decided to take a trip to the 99p Store and see what beauty products they had to offer. I came out with 'Beauty Formulas-Tired eyes gel patches for puffiness & dark circles' I decided to purchase these because I have such late nights and my eyes have started to pay the price 0.0

You get 3 treatments which totals to 6 eye patches. I tried them as soon as I got home and was actually very shocked. As soon as I placed them underneath my eyes I noticed how cool they were. They felt as though they had been put into a fridge over-night! They have a really soothing effect on the area under your eyes. I would advise you to leave them on for a minimum of 30 mins and no longer than 12 hours. 

Seriously chicas! Try these out a real bargain @ just 99p!

I will keep you updated on results

I think it's about time I posted a new blog showing you one of my make-up ideas. My latest one is called 'Midnight Mist' which I created on my boyfriend's 12 year old sister.  

This picture displays a blue matte pigment, a light grey shimmery pigment & a white shimmery pigment blended together to re-create the look of a midnight mist.I also used a glittery silver eyeliner along the lash line. I chose these three color's because I felt they complimented eachother well. The pigments I have used are by FACEFIX. 

The products I used are in-expensive to buy. For more info message me and if you have any requests you'd like to see let me know! Don't forget to share your comments and opinions.

Heya chicas, Ive recently received a couple of inbox questions asking about my eyelashes. Well let me tell you their NOT real. I know right? They look pretty natural not too much. The secret to this is EYELURE GIRLS ALOUD EYELASHES! Their great. I was abit apprehensive about buying them as I have bought different pairs of eyelashes from different manufacturers and they have been poop. But these eyelashes are a real bargain and absolute beauty's to wear.

I use NADINE'S eyelashes but you have the choice between Sarah,Nicole,Kimberly & Cheryl Cole aswell. I found that Nadines look the most natural and I havent tried the rest so I cant honestly say what they look like once they've been applied. Their very easy to apply and come with glue. You can find them in most stores. I usually get mine from my local pharmacy but you can find them in New look, Boots, Superdrugs & Savers for around £5

My routine on applying these lashes is one thats easy to learn so Im going to share it with you. I start off with my right eye (im right handed) but it doesnt really make a difference. I cleanse the area with a non oily cleanser to ensure theres no oil on my eyelid otherwise this may effect the eyelash sticking on. Next I prime my eyelashes with a little mascara just to make to easier for the eyelashes to blend in with my own. I take the eyelashes off the palette with a pair of tweezers and apply a little glue from right to left. Remember LESS IS MORE. Next I blow the glue for about 5 seconds to make it a little tacky and less wet. Starting from the corner of my eye I place the eyelash as closely as possible to my natural lashline as you want it to look natural and not too fake. Apply a little pressure once the eyelash is stuck and voila you have fake eyelashes. Repeat for the next eye. Also if you find the eyelash is a little long for your eye length simply trim down its easy.

You can maintain your false eyelashes by always putting them back on the try and into the box. Mine usually last for about 2 weeks. 

Hope you enjoyed chicas. I will be updating my look with some SHU UEMURA eyelashes very soon & will write you a review!

I decided to post my first make-up picture which I have just done on my baby sister who is 10 years old.

Ive called this picture 'PURPLE HAZE' because it is a purple pigment and a silvery/white pigment blended together almost like a purple mist. I love love love the way these colors have worked together and feel they really compliment eachother well. The pictures have been posted so all you dolls can see a iddy biddy peak of my work before I start making tutorials and videos! Comment and let me know what you think!
