Beauty: My 'Signature' Look

So hi...

When it comes to make up, if you couldn't tell from the fact I have a blog around it, I'm a pretty big fan, My collection grows and grows and I love to try and get experimental and test my boundaries. But I feel like with most people there is always that reliable look I always go back to and can trust to just work for me. Our 'Signature look' Which is what I'm showing off today.
My sort of signature go to look s pretty simple to be honest, a cat flick is essential. I literally don't feel ready for the day without eye liner, Then for eye shadow I quite like to use the Make-up Revolution GO! palette as I hardly reach for anything else, I like to use the light pink colours then add a little of the dark colour in the corner for a little definition.

The base itself tends to change as I test and try out new concealers and foundations but at the moment it's the Bourjois healthy mix serum (Which I wrote about here).
And then it's Lipstick, And as blogger common as it seems I can't help but have my all time favourite lipstick as Rimmel's Kate moss collection in 107, the perfect mixture of berry red, Suitable for every occasion.
And that just about sums up my go to 'signature look'. It's simple, can be adjusted for different occasions ( although it usually goes with everything) and I have the application down to a quick tee.

What's your personal 'Signature look'?

Mac Lipstick Wishlist.

So hi...

Now I'm not fortunate enough to have a mac counter in my home town so I've never really had the opportunity to buy any Mac products, but my want for them continues to grow, especially since reading a fair few blogs, I like the sound of a load of different mac products like the Eye shadows but the real gems for me are the Lipsticks and as much as I'd just like to own all of them that Isn't possible so I have a shortened list of the shade I'm lusting over.


Russian Red: One of the more popular shade next to Ruby Woo, This true dark red colour is to die for and although I own a similar shade, the higher quality will be amazing.

Velvet Teddy: I've seen this shade so many times of instagram and it took me a good 20/30 minutes to hunt down the name of the shade but it looks like the definition of 'My lips but perfect' and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Lady Danger: Another Red colour with lovely orange tones, It's another I just want it colour, I'd love it for summer and when I want a red lip with  little difference.

Sin: Sin is an almost Burgundy colour and it looks so interesting, I don't have a colour like it and I just want it.

All Fired up: A bright Fuchsia colour, Gotta love a good bright lip.

And those are my top lusts from mac, as well as those I want to collect a palette of eye shadows and maybe try out the foundation and powders but I've heard very mixed reviews about those products.

Any Mac lipsticks you're lusting over?

The Autumn Lip.

So hi...

It is just me or has the cold come around a little too quickly? It still felt summery last week and now it's absolutely freezing! what's that about, anyway with that in mind I've been having a little look in my lipstick collection to see what lip colours I'll be using this autumn. I like to go two ways with lip colour in cold weather, either the typical dark berry and purple toned colours, or nude and lightly pink toned colours. I don't know why but they are just my thing for autumn and winter. So I got together a little collection of what I think I'll be reaching for this Autumn, and it's a fair few.


From the make up Revolution #Liphug collection there are three colours I'll be using, The top, darkest one is 'Saviour will come' It's a dark browny berry toned colour which would be nice for those milder nights out. The second colour is called 'To get lucky' and is a little similar to the first but is much lighter and has more of a reddy tone to it, I think this would be for days when I was feeling a little sassy. The last one is 'insatiable' and is a lovely Pink tone with a hint of red, a nice staple colour for any situation really.

And there's the rest, The two in the top are also from Make up Revolution and are the shades 'Rebel without Cause' which is a bright berry purple and the other from the Vamp shade collection is '100% vamp', a super dark, nearly black purple, definitely a vampiric color. Both would be for either nights out or a daring super cold day.
The next two are both from the Rimmel Moisture renew range, The first shade is 380 'Dark night Waterl-opps' a super pigmented plum Berry colour, perfect to keep my lips soft against the harsh weather and you gotta have a berry colour for the colder months, it's a must. The second shade is a vibrant dark pink shade called 360 'As you want Victoria' I can see myself wearing this the most, such a sassy and stand out pink.
The last two are the nude tones I mentioned and are different brands. The first is an oldie from Maybelline and from there water shine range, It's called 24 'Hazelnut sauce' And very much fits the name, it's a super browny nude colour, makes me feel super sophisticated, I'll be wearing this on the quick days where I wanna look effortlessly chic.
And the last which is a perfect my lips but better pink nude for me is from collection in the shade 13 'Vintage Rose'. Whenever I just can't be bothered but don't fancy looking a wreck at uni, I'll be slicking this on for a perfect pout.

And those are the picks for Autumn and winter, I will probably also be wearing 107 by Kate Moss because it's my most favourite lipstick of all time, but I talk about that enough so I left it out this time.

What will you be reaching for this Autumn?

Rediscovering Lipsticks

So hi...


As a blogger and fan of reading many blogs I've read a few posts about 'Shopping your stash' but I never really thought I'd ever amass enough make-up to do that myself but ALAS, I have definitely collected enough lipsticks.
Recently I've been using the same make-up products because a lot of my things have already been moved over to my new place that I'll be moving to in a few weeks, but I completely forgot that I left a whole bag full of other make-up stuff so I could swap around, and I rediscovered my Topshop Headrush lipstick, a lovely mix of red and orange. As such I've been pretty addicted to it the last week or so, the quality of the Topshop lipsticks is another thing I'd forgotten, and it really made me realize the difference in the more expensive products.
As much as I love my £1 lipsticks from the likes of MUA and makeup revolution, they are of lower quality, though I definitely think they are amazing for the price, you can really feel the difference when you apply the products.
The Rediscovery of this actually quite new purchase made me think that I should make more of an effort to 'shop my stash' as I have a decent collection yet I always seem to reach for the classic Rimmel Kate moss 107, which as much as I find it a godsend, I have about 20+ other lipsticks of different colours and textures.

When was the last time you discovered a new favourite from your own collection?

Coloured Liner.

So hi...

When it comes to eye liner I've always gone for good old black, except the little exception of a white pencil for underneath the eye. But n terms of eyeliner for the top and my usual wing I've always gone with the normal black liner whether it was pen or gel or liquid.
HOWEVER. while in superdrug (just before the broken foot!) I was looking for my collection extreme liner as it's my old faithful for eyeliner but there was no black! There was however other colours, two of which caught my eye. So here I am with two different coloured eyeliner pens and I'm going to show them off too you.

 The two colours that caught my eye was a bright turquoise/green purple and a purple colour, It helps that the collection extreme felt tip liners are only £3/4 each so it wouldn't be breaking the bank if i didn't like either colour.
 So the green colour is definitely my favourite out of the two, I find it matches really well to my eye colour and makes them pop, which is awesome, it's also got super staying power. twice the amount of the black version.
The purple is also super pretty looking, It's a pretty colour and I definitely think I'd use it along with the black version to add colour, such as a smokey eye for a night out then a swipe of the purple under a black liner, I think it'd look super cool.

Have you ever adventured into the realm of coloured eyeliners? any colour suggestions.

Those Unusual Lip colours.

So hi

So when you think lipsticks and colours the most common to think of is shades of red and pink as well as nudes and then  berry shades. dark purple shades have also become pretty common place to appear upon the lips. But there are some lip colours that are straight up a little peculiar. I own a few such colours, Most from Make-up revolution as it was a set of 5 for £4 and I decided to get the set despite there strange vibrant tones. So lets go through them.

The first shade I have although is purple it's a little brighter than the typical purple shades you see around, This shade is called Depraved and although strange I could see people wearing it out, I'm not sure how great it would look however. As you can tell the payout is decent but not strong enough, I spent about 5 minutes trying to cover my lips completely and as you can tell it didn't completely work.

 The Most 'normal' or common colour in this little showcase, this shade is called Vice and is a super bright very true orange, dfferent from the orangey toned reds you see around and with it a little more difficult to wear, The colour pay out is slightly better and a little stronger pigmented. It's also the smoothest to apply.
 With the colour pigment and pay out of them all is this yellow shade called Felony which although looks super bright in the bullet has almost no actually colour, I can't ever imagine being able to wear this out and looking acceptable.
 And lastly is this pale icy blue shade called Immoral. I thought this would be the worst one but I don't actually hate it, The color payout is actually pretty good. I could only see myself wearing this as apart of a cosplay or Halloween outfit such as the Ice witch from Narnia or something.

Do you own as super unusual lip colours?
