Bright Shadow Pallette Or Nutrals For Holidays away !


Packing for a holiday away can be a right pain, all the outfit plannin so you have something to wear in circumstance, but what i always found hard to control is my beauty products. which body butter to take, regular or shimmer, lip stick or lip gloss.Today's battle was which makeup palette to take, nude or neon. About a week before my holiday i like to try out my makeup to take to make sure i have everything but day after day iv used a mix of the two pallets, I'm simply torn in two. nude because it suits anytime of day or neon because your abroad and you always push the boat out, wear skirts shorter than you would back home and go shopping in your bikini. what would you do ?

The Colour Purple



One of S/S Beauty looks is 'the colour of purple'. When I first saw this look in VOGUES February Issue i wasn't sure if i would try it as i could turn out looking like i have to black eyes, but today i gave it a shot. This is my interpretation. Will you give purple a go this summer ?

My favoraite makeup of the moment !




I'm no makeup guru but every girls got a favorite makeup of the moment. Its the one you always end up going back to. Mine just happens to be the easiest one to do ( Might be why i always use it :D ) How i do it: First off i used MAC paint pot in rubenesque as my base patting it on my lid and just above the crease to give the eyeshadow something to stick to. to deepen the crease i used a well known favorite of many, MAC shadow in Mythology. For thoughs who arnt a fan of all things sparkly and glittery, you can finish off with a light brown pencil liner under the lid,No.7s amazing eye pencil in brown 10, works well with some light mascara such as No.7s sensitives eyes mascara. If you love glitter and sparkle or just want to saz it up for night why not add a gold glitter eye liner, i used MUAs glitter liner in shade 2 ( i wouldn't recommend this product as the applicator is awful and chips of easily) For under the eyes try MACs soft sparkle eye pencil in mint & olive. If you find this to light for night purple liner on the water line and some blue mascara on the lower lashes changes the look in two easy steps. If i can do this look anyone can, Whats your favorite look of the moment ?

I Love Lipstick


Okay so I have a love for all makeup but if I had to choose one Id could take to space it would be my lipstick. Iv been searching the high streets for some reasonably priced lipstick with some warming pink tones for the winter to keep in my purse for all occasions. i came across 3 by Maybelline. 812 Delicate Pearl, 420 Coral Pop (Love the name) 842 Rosewood Pearl. All three are great colours but Coral Pop has to be my favorite. All are good quality and a great example that you don't have to go to a counter for all your lipstick although you can treat yourself once every now and then. I do ;) Who else has some winter favorites ? Leave a comment.
Swatches of all 3 lipsticks are below.

Makeup I couldnt live without on holiday !



I'm home ! Zante was amazing the atmosphere was fantastic and music and the people where absolutely ...... :O No words can describe !! Zante is one of those places where everything is OTT. If your going to somewhere like this soon even if it not Zante maybe Malia here are some of my holiday best buys. I couldn't believe i only used theses items all holiday.

First up is the Limited edition Sleek pa let in Circus. It comes with 12 bright coloured shadows 3 of which have a shimmer to them. all very pigmented and stayed on all night and i even woke up in the morning with my makeup still intact without any setting powered sprays !( I do normally remove my makeup before bed but if you've been to Zante, your know that just doesn't happen). For under the eyes and water wells i used rimmels eye liner in 071 pure white, 240 aqua sparkle and Mac peacocked soft sparkle eye pencil. I also took a single Mac shadow in Honesty.

No matter where i am in the world i always take glitter with me so i brought along, Hard candy, glitter gel and Body Shop 01 sparkle pot:fairy dust and define & sparkle eyeliner/mascara top coat in silver (Both of which i don't know are still are available as i bought them in the xmas collection.

Last and by no means least my rimmel London lipstick in: In Vogue038 and no.7 sensitive eyes mascara.

All the products i have spoken about are well worth the investment and will defiantly be taken away with me next time. So when your next off to the beach or a girly night out with friends don't forget your bright shadows and your glitter !! xox

What Every Girl Sould Take On Her Holiday Travels - Cosmetics

We all struggle to find the right products to take on our travels, I would take every thing if i could but the air lines set us our limits. Today i went down to superdrug to stock up on products for my holiday! First up i got the suncream as I'm not a fan of sun spots or burns so i would personally recommend Garnier Amber Solaire sun oil as its not sticky and makes you look bronze on the beach even if your still building your tan and i got the tan lasting cream too but i haven't used it before so ill have to let you know once i come back ! Holidays are all about having fun so i always take a spray in wash out hair die so iv picked wicked white which glows in UV light ! awesome or what ! I'm not going to include everything pictured her but some of my favourites are.... The simples makeup remover, toners and cleansers. Tea tree for all though little bites, Barry m lip gloss and nail varnish in mushroom and the quickies nail varnish remover and Phil smith hair protect take aways hair collection. Hope everyone has a wicked time on there travels this summer !!!
