ICY NUDE

Hey Guys!

Here is another makeup look I have come up with. I used my Sleek Storm Pallette solely to create this look. Its a mixture of the colours black with some icy shades of cranberry. I wanted to take a different approach to the basic smokey eye. 
This look is very simple to achieve. I firstly applied black all over my lids, and then added a cranberry shade on top to give an icy effect.

 On my lips I have on my Revlon 117 but any lip colour would work with this look. On my cheeks I have on Sleek's Blush in Peach. I would be doing video tutorials soon! College takes up a lot of time so I only have time for some quick looks.

Hope you enjoyed this one!

FOTN: SPARKLE

Hey Guys!


So I finally did a FOTN post and I might be doing some more; anyways, this look was taken in a hurry as I was getting dressed for an actual event; 

I decided to theme it sparkle cause of the brightness lol. Its a mixture of my aptly named Sparkle Sleek Pallette which is my go to eyeshadow pallette for an evening out; I also decided to pop in a pic of my newly acquired Blush by 3-Pink Spritz-from Sleek which is a gorgeous mix of 'pinks' from bright to subtly glowing;
On my lips I have Candy Yum Yum mixed with a Barry M Red Lip Pencil. Hope you like it!

FOTD: PINK FLUSH

Hey Everyone!


Hope you had a lovely weekend! This is just a quick post on a look I experimented with recently. Its mainly an incorporation of colours such as pink being the principal colour used, blue, orange and a hint of black. 

I decided to try something different by making my face more flushed with colours. Hope you like it.

FOTD's: FALL/WINTER

Hey Everyone!

Here are some looks I have tried out for the fall/winter season; in the first, I was just playing around with some colour on my lids with my lovely and trustworthy Sleek Storm Pallette and also used some of Sleek's Pink Spritz Blush By 3 pallette on my cheeks!
And my indispensable Revlon 117 on my lips; I will take time out to do a review on some of my products soon enough but hope you like the look!








Secondly, I was going for a more vampy look here and decided to toy around once more with the Sleek Sunset Pallette to create some cranberry eyes; and on my cheeks I have on Sleek's Blush by 3 Flame Pallette which is a sort of mixture of light to dark red colours that suit day or night time. On my lips I decided to try on Mac's Rebel Lipstick which is a really nice dark rich red colour that also can be worn during day/night.

AFROBEATS

Hey Everyone!

So there's been a lot of new videos going round and I might be doing some looks kind of inspired by these videos but anyways here are some of the tunes currently making their way round! Hope you enjoy it!







SIMPLE MAKEUP LOOKS

Hey Guys!

I've been really busy hence the slowness in posting and I'm trying to improve the lighting situation which in itself is a challenge *sigh* Anyways I decided to do a post on some looks that are sort of afrobeats inspired but wearable during the day; I do apologise for the lighting but I am working on that like I said and it should be getting better soon.
 
This look is basically just a nude smokey eye which is one of my favourite makeup looks to wear just cause of the toned down drama of the look; But you can switch it up with a red lip as I did here also if you want to go full out;


 However, I decided to keep the rest of my face relatively neutral in terms of my use of blush and contouring as I feel like the eyes and the lips should not be too overpowered by much more makeup around the face.

Hope you like it!
