Black and white party


So this is the makeup I did for a 16th party. The theme was black and white so I wore a black and white dress and black lace tights with black heels - I'll post the outfit soon :) For my makeup I wanted to add a little bit of colour so I put a black and red pigment on my eyes with red lips and a red blush. Sounds abit drag queeny but i think it worked

Face:
  • Maybelline pure liquid mineral foundation in cameo
  • Rimmel mineral foundation in ivory (as setting powder)
  • Clarins stick concealer
  • A red blush from an american company called pure luxe cosmetics in raspberry
  • A setting powder from pure luxe cosmetics in you glow girl
Eyes:
  • Benefits lemon aid
  • Urban Decay Primer Potion
  • Benefit bad gal liner heavily applied on half of lid and lower lash line, waterline and tightline.
  • A pigment from pure luxe cosmetics applied over the liner - black with red sparkles

Been away again!


I am so so sorry guys I havent posted anything in YEARS! i've been so busy revising for my gcses and going out and stuff that I've completely paid no attention to the blog and its been making me sad because I so enjoy the feedback i get :) hopefully you havent given up on me!

Anyways I'm doing another outfit post - because i do love them so much!

I wore this outfit to a gig I went to about a week ago with my friends. As ever i dressed up :) Genuinelly it would be hard for me to feel overdressed for any occasion! I wear heels, dresses and lipstick whenever i go out in the day! As me and my friend said the other day - we would both rather be smart than 'fit'.

I am wearing a dress my mum got me from fashion union mail order catelogue with some black opaques and then some black ankle boots from new look. My hair I just straightened quickly and then on my face I used some nude colours from my urban decay sustainable shadow pallet and used some of mac's girl about town lipstick.

Song of the day - kelsey by metro station.

The weather is AMAZING at the moment! Spent my day yesterday lazing about brick lane, camden and leicester square in the sun. absolute bliss! hope summer is like the last couple of days! What have you been up to in our recent amazing weather?
