Say NO to Contouring

 

If you’re like me and you pretty much like to get up and go on the morning,  you do not have time to spend 2 hours doing your make up.

I like to keep it simple. Simple is good. Let’s go back to the days when it was easy.

My simple tools? Just some Bobby Brown foundation Almond 7 and Nude Mac Cream Sheen  with some L’Oréal Volume Million Mascara.

Most of the time I use the Mac NW45 powder foundation or just bare my skin.

Nice ‘n’ easy.

Nicki Minaj- Mac Viva Glam Lipgloss

Love this lipgloss, brought this for the bright summer months and it did me just fine.

It applies beautifully and you don’t need to add any lipstick just to get more colour. Tastes of vanilla and stays on your lips without fading.

Was definitely a worthwhile purchase but not sure if they have this range in stores anymore. Hope they do because I want more!

Whilst shopping in Croydon a few weeks back, I came across a young girl with some fierce nails.

As I was so impressed I had ask her where she got them done but it actually turned out that she did them herself. Her Aztec designs were amazing!

As my birthday was coming up I invited her over to test out some funky patterns. Here are a few pics of what she did for me.

Will definitely be inviting her to the House Full of Girls again!

IMATS(1)- What a Day!

There were so many stalls I didn’t know where to begin but I soon found my feet and was pleased by my discoveries . I was excited by the wonderful array of brands not very well known in the UK.

It was an eye opening experience and I realised that there is so much choice out there. If you look hard enough you will discover something amazing.

Here are a few snippets of our day:

 Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics

Lip Tar by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics– it literally is tar!
I love the fluorescent colour. Comes out exactly as it is on the package and has long lasting stay (which is not common in lip gloss) highly recommended
£11.50 Selfridges

Large selection of blushers, foundations and eye shadows. Tried some blushers, just wasn’t for me.

 

Make up Atelier Paris

Make up Atelier Paris
I was impressed by their large selection of foundations. It’s nice to see brands showing consideration for all women with a variety of shades to choose from. Make up mole couldn’t get over their waterproof foundation!

Make up mole and the miraculous stranger

Make up mole was magically made up by a make up genius in the NYX queue. He literally whipped out his brush and some bright green eye shadow that he’d just brought  and performed a miracle. Will definitely be visiting him in Liverpool. Micheal Perks is the name.
