Neutral Eyes and Red Lips

I'm so excited that I finally have time for a new blog post, I've missed you all so much!

This is from my Mum's birthday dinner at the start of July which is why my hair is still blonde in these pictures.

Inglot Makeup Tutorial

I recorded this tutorial on the 29th of June and when I started it I had no idea of what I was going to do, I just knew that I wanted to use my Inglot eyeshadows. The background music isn't working because of a bug with AudioSwap but hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Inglot FOTD

First of all I'm sorry I haven't been able to post much! I've been so busy lately and I'm sure you all will understand. Time is just flying by at the moment and so many exciting things have been happening! I got to do my first photoshoot a few weeks ago and I'm lucky enough to be getting an amazing opportunity to be helping out at a big event (not sure if I can say what it is yet) so it's all going to be pretty full on.

I did this look a while ago when I got some new Inglot goodies (which I need to post swatches of) and I wanted to just have a play.

Neutral-ish? Makeup Tutorial

I filmed a tutorial for this look a few weeks ago but I've been so busy that I haven't had time to upload it. I started a makeup course on the 11th of July and it's been pretty full on so I'm not sure how often I'm going to be able to update. But I do have a few looks and tutorials that I filmed before I started my course that I will gradually upload.

Blue and Green + Glitter!

I wore this look to the Roller Derby a couple of weeks ago. Midway through doing it I realized that it looked a lot like this look so I just added some glitter!

Spring Inspired - Green Eyes and Pink Lips

So even though its Autumn here in New Zealand I've been on a real spring kick lately! It never really feels like Autumn for me because in the area that I live in we don't really have any deciduous trees so they're green all year round.

Yellow and Orange Glitter! - Lion Costume Look

Hey everyone!

I've been meaning to post this for a while but I've been so busy I completely forgot about it! This is from a costume party and I went dressed as a lion.

Purple and Blue Look

Hey everyone!

First of all I want to apologize for not posting much anymore. I've been going through a lot of personal and family issues the main one being that my Grandma was diagnosed with advanced cancer and isn't expected to live much longer. I have been rarely wearing much make up lately but I'm really trying to get back into the swing of things because it really helps to get my mind off everything. I hope you all will understand :)

I haven't been feeling like going out much but on Saturday I made myself go to the Roller Derby because I knew I would enjoy it and it was a great distraction so this is the look I wore for it. I literally had no time to get ready so I just chucked something together really quick.

Reflects Antique Gold Look

Hey Everyone!

Last week I went to the MAC Wonder Woman Preview at my local MAC Counter and this is the look I wore. Nothing special I just grabbed a few products I haven't used in a while. I had to take these pictures after I got home (nine hours later) because I was running late!

Sugarpill Valentines Day Tutorial

Hey everyone!

Valentines Day is one of my favorite holidays so I wanted to do a bright tutorial using red, pink, and purple.

Christmas Eve Look

Hey everyone!

This is the look I wore to go shopping for last minute presents on Christmas Eve.

My First Youtube Makeup Tutorial!

Hi everyone!

I borrowed a friends camera to make a makeup tutorial for you all! This is my first time making a video so sorry if I'm out of the frame at times. This is for the last FOTD I posted here. 

I hope you all enjoy and please rate, comment and subscribe!

Dinair and OCC Skin Swatches Plus Some MAC Comparisons

When I was thinking about getting some of the Dinair airbrush makeup a few months ago I was really disappointed that I couldn't find any swatches of anything online. So hopefully this will help some of you who may be thinking about trying out a different brand of airbrush makeup and want to see what the colors look like.

Blue and Green Look

I was meant to post this look a couple of days ago but I got a really bad tummy bug and I couldn't even sit up long enough to go on my computer! Thankfully I'm feeling much better today so I can get some things done, it gets so boring lying in bed all day and its such nice weather outside.

De-vil and Vainglorious

I wanted to try out a couple of the eyeshadows I got from the MAC Venomous Villains collection (I hadn't even touched them yet, how bad is that!) and this is what I came up with.

Sugarpill Guy Fawkes Look

This is the look I wore to go and see the fireworks display in the city. I wanted something really bright (not that anybody could see of course because it was dark) and I wanted to use the latest Sugarpill Palette I bought.

Late last month Sugarpill were offering Monster palettes as a Halloween special. They were factory second palettes that were 40% off and I was lucky enough to snag a Burning Heart palette. I actually only ended up using the orange (Flamepoint) and the yellow (Buttercupcake) from the palette in this look.

She Who Dares

I wanted to do something green to go and see Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D and this is what I came up with. I am absolutely in love with the MAC She Who Dares Mineralize Eyeshadow from the Venomous Villains collection, its so gorgeous! My camera wasn't picking up the pretty sparkles so the pictures do not do it justice!

IMATS Sydney Part Two

Next up is Make Up For Ever. They didn't have the whole range of products so I ended up only picking up 5 things. I got the HD Blush in #13, the Aqua Creams in #3, #6, #19 and the HD Microfinish Powder (not pictured).

The Aqua Creams are absolutely wonderful as eyeshadow bases. They do not move or crease which is something I was really worried about. I wore the #3 silver from 7am till 10pm and it still looked exactly the same as when I first put it on in the morning! I also used #6 fresh pink as a blush and it didn't fade at all. I will definitely be purchasing more asap!

The HD Blush was great as well, although it does have a scent that you can definitely smell when applying it. It wasn't unpleasant to me at all in fact I loved it but I can see other people hating it. I'll be picking up more of those as well.
