Makeup Monday: Berry Lip and Glowing Skin Makeup

Hello everyone! Welcome to Makeup Monday, it is time to break out your berry lip shades as we are going to create and ethereal and earthy makeup look. The focus is on glowing skin and deep berry stained lips. Face: 1. Start off with a moderate to full coverage foundation and apply it with your favourite foundation brush. We want the skin to be as flawless as possible. I used Clinique Even Better Makeup in Golden Neutral, and applied it with a Real Techniques Expert Face Brush.  2. Contour the face using a matte bronzer and an angled brush. Focus on contouring underneath the cheekbones, then lightly contour the sides of your forehead and under your jaw. I used the bronzer shade from the Elf Contouring Blush and Bronzer duo in St Lucia .  3. Next pick a shimmery peach blush and using a big, fluffy face brush dust it onto the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards.Look for a very shimmery and light blush as this will enhance your glow and keep with the natu...

Fashion Friday: Rainy Day Jeans and Plaid Shirt

Hello everyone! Today's Fashion Friday is another outfit of the day. Today was very grey and a little rainy so I wanted to wear something that didn't take tons if brain power to come up with. I chose classic dark wash skinny jeans and a plaid button up. This button up is tailored at the back which makes it more feminine and flattering, and all I did was roll up the sleeves to make it less "dowdy" looking. My jeans are from American Eagle, the top is from Stitches, and I just wore my "cheapies" from Walmart. "Cheapies"= cheap comfy shoes. On my lips I'm wearing Revlon Soft Nude, and on my nails I have Sally Hanson Red Carpet nail colour.  On another note: I reached 10 subscribers on YouTube! And that just made my day, thank you so much and if you haven't subscribed make sure you do because there will be a giveaway once I reach 100 subscribers. If you click on the video link at the bottom of the post it will whisk you away to ...

This is my go to makeup look recently as I love me a glowy bronze natural look.  Face: 1. Start off by applying a tinted moisturizer or bb cream to your face and blend outwards using your fingers.

Beauty on a Budget: Best Drugstore Pink Lipsticks

From Left to Right: L'Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in 165 Tickled Pink, Covergirl Lipstick in 445 Pink Chic, Rimmel Airy Fairy, Maybelline 015 Born With It Hello Everyone! Today's Beauty on a Budget is all about pink lipstick. These four lipsticks are my absolute favourite, and as each is a different shade and finish there is something for everyone.  L'Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in 165 Tickled Pink.  This is a super bright, frosty pink. It has a creamy texture and great lasting power. Beacuse it has such a frosted finish this lipstick isn't to everyone tastes but it suits most skin tones and can be worn with a lot of other colours. Covergirl Lipstick in 445 Pink Chic.  Another frosty pink, this lipstick might not even be available anymore. It is a cool pink, a very baby pink shade with a silvery glitter. This one has a drier formula and semi-matte finish (besides all the glitter). It goes great with cool colours, and works for both summer and winter.  ...
