My Everyday Makeup Products and a Smokey Eye!


Hello!

So today I thought I would share with you the products I use on a pretty much daily basis at the moment as well as give you a quick look at a smokey eye look I'm just in love with right now :)

Everyday Products I use:

  • Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Primer
  • Soap and Glory "One Heck of a Blot" Full Coverage Foundation
  • Rimmel Lasting Perfection Concealer
  • Ben Nye Luxury Banana Powder
  • Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette
  • Charlotte Tilbury "Bar of Gold" Skin Gliding Highlighter
  • L'Oreal Brow Artist Pencil
  • Benefit Gimme Brow
  • Lorac Mega Pro Palette 
  • Too Faced "Better Than Sex" Mascara 

~

For the Smokey Eye look:

I use the Lorac Mega Pro Palette for this look as it has so many gorgeous colours both matte and glittery, my favourite shade in the palette has to be Mulberry!


So I start this look by priming my eyelids with a bright concealer as I think it does a great job, especially the Rimmel Lasting Perfection!

I then take the shade "Brown" on a small eyeshadow brush and sweep it over my crease starting from the very outer corner
When that has been blended out I then take the shade "Dusty Plum" and place that just in my outer corner and blend it into my crease to help darken the look and add a but of warmth

I then take the shade "Camel" and sweep that over my whole lid, blending it into my crease, then adding the shade "Copper" in the centre of my lid to brighten my eyes

Then all you need to do is to get the shade "Sepia" and blend that into the outside of the crease to smoke it out and brighten it (as this is an everyday smokey eye!) 

The final step is to take the shade "Copper" and pat some of it under your waterline to complete the look and bring the whole thing together!

And there you have it! An everyday smokey eye!

Let me know if you try this look I'd love to hear what you guys think about it

See you soon!

Looking back on Summer!


Hello!

So today I thought with it being so rainy and cold here I was thinking I could share with you guys some photos of summer and what I got up to! 

So summer kicked off with an amazing holiday with my girls from school
five of us stayed in an apartment in Portugal for six days and whilst we were there we went out partying, swam with Sea Lions and went in the sea!
It was a great send off before everyone (except me!) went to university :)

I also was going to blog throughout the trip but we were out and about so much I didn't get the chance!

But anyway here are some of my favourite photos from the trip

So on 23rd July it was my 18th Birthday woo!!
I could finally party and throw the party I had been waiting to have for over a year
It was such a lovely evening seeing family and friends from all parts of my life and it definitely will be a night I will never forget

On the night I wore a gorgeous embellished dress from Debenhams, I got it on sale so I was a very happy bunny :)

The day after my crazy day of partying and catching up with everyone, my family packed up with two family friends and went back to Portugal for two whole weeks in the sun in a gorgeous villa with a private pool!

We ate out so much I must have put on a whole stone whilst away but the food was so good you couldn't say no!

We also brought my dad's underwater camera so an attempt of filming a music video took place in the pool and we managed to take so great pictures

When I finally got back from the holiday it was time for year 13 prom!
The school had booked for my year to have out prom at the prettiest golf course with beautiful food and a great backdrop for photos

For the prom I paid to get my hair done at my favourite hairdressers and I must have spent over and hour doing my makeup to make sure I looked at my best

Summer was then finished off with a five day long trip back to Portugal with my boyfriend :)
It was out first holiday together and we had so much fun walking on the marina and I even got to swim with Sea Lions again!

So that is my brief summary of my summer!

It was great to look back on these photos and remember what a great time I had and I hope you also had a great summer last year, here's to an even better summer 2017!
