Valentine.

Happy Valentines Day my lovely's so inspired by today's abundance of romanticness (yes i know thats not a word ) I decided to try my first make-up look!.
I went for a more natural face/lips and a bit of a soft pink smoky eye, which for me is a challenge, browns are my go to colour palette for eyes but I want to start using more colour so I gave it a go !
I will say I am not a genius when it comes to camera work so bare that in mind haha, but anyway hope you like this look !

So I went for a very soft smoky pink eye bitta liner and loaded up on mascara,no falsey's here !  

For cheeks and lips I went for a very natural soft pink blush and pale pink Topshop lipstick.

Products Used.

 Eyes: First I primed my eyes with Urban Decays Primer Potion then I used my Sleek 'Oh So Special' Palette for eye shadows focusing on the left side using the pinks and a dark shimmery purple for the smoky effect. finishing with Benefits They're Real Mascara.

 Lips: To prep my lips for lipstick I used Lush's Bubblegum Lip Scrub to rid my lips of any dry skin and make them silky smooth, I then applied my fave pinky nude lipstick, Topshops 'Secret Admirer'  all over the lips.

Face: To prime my face I just popped on my everyday moisturizer No.7's Beautiful Skin Day Cream for Dry/Very Dry skin. Next I applied my foundation Mac's Studio Sculpt in NW15. I filled in my brows next using a brown eyeshadow. Next I contoured my face a little bit using Sleeks Contour kit in 'Medium' and then I added a little of 'crochet' blush from Sleeks blush by 3 palette. Lastly I finished my look by adding some of Topshops powder highlighter in 'sunbeam'.

Well I hope you enjoyed this post, as my first 'make-up look' I am loving how it turned out anywhoo have a very magical Valentines Day Dolls! 

Love A x.

Intro.

Deciding to start a fresh new blog is hard. What should I write about, will it be relevant, who will even read it ?! But then again do I really care?, to be perfectly honest not really. This blog is for me because 1.I Am extremely bored with life after losing my job 2.I really like the idea of having somewhere i can write down all my opinions and thoughts on everything from the newest fashion/make-up trends to how much I love unicorns! and 3.Because why the hell not?!!.

To be frankly honest I don't even know exactly what will be on these pages or even when I will write them but they will definitely be of interest to me and hopefully a hand few of others. Anyway I better stop blabbering on and introduce my self!.

This is me (Andrea) in my natural habitat (a.k.a taking a selfie)
