GRWM:POP OF COLOUR

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Hope your day was blessed. 
My look for today is basically a toned down version of playing with colours. I enjoy mixing palettes a lot but I decided to try a more played down version for the day time that can be worn to wherever really. 



So I used a mix of nudes, with a dash of colour in between to make sure the eyes were not too boring.
 I also played with MAC's Flat Out Fabulous on the lips to give the added pop of colour and help the look all come together.

I played with my new favourite day time lashes-Ardell's Natural Lashes-and also with LA Girl Pro Concealer under my eyes and in my T Zone area. 
I love this concealer because its very long lasting, thick, and it has an interesting creamy consistency that makes it more vibrant when applied under the eyes. I also used it to define my lips. I'm thinking I'll start using the darker shades of the concealer to contour as well. 

For contouring in this look, I used Sleek Face Form and I also used the bronzer in the Face Form Dark Palette.

EYELINER: GREEN

I have recently become fascinated with makeup pencils-lip pencils, eye pencils and the like. I find they can make a look more toned up or down whichever way one prefers it.
One of my favourite eye pencils is one I found in the drugstore. Its got a very green hue to it and is easily applicable to the waterline to give a pop of colour or even to intensify the look of the lids.

ENVIOUS RED.
So I tried it out with my favourite lipstick-Ruby Woo. I love the effect it gives to the look. 




On my lids I played with some more green hues mostly from my Sleek Acid/Supreme Palettes.




GIRL ABOUT TOWN.

I tried playing with the same hue of green with my MAC Girl About Town lipstick.



I have on my pair of Natural lashes by Ardell.







On my cheeks is Sleek's Blush by 3 Palette and on my eyes is Sleek's Sunset Palette.

FOTD: HEATWAVE

Hey Everyone,

Hope you are all having a blessed week so far. 
I tried some new looks I wanted to share with you guys.


ORANGE FLAME
First off is the Morange Lipstick by MAC. Its got a creamy consistency with a very bright orange colour to match. I enjoy using this lipstick mostly at night time because of its boldness but I decided to try it during the day because it adds a certain level of edge to a look. 

 

On my lids I worked once more with Sleek Palette's Acid and Supreme. I really like the Acid palette because its got a lot of bright matte colours.





SIMPLY NUDE.
On my lips I have on Sleek's Peach Blush and on my lips Mac's Velvet Teddy. This was not my favourite look but I just wanted to show the diversity of the look. Its interesting how a lipstick can take a look from A-Z very quickly. It changes a look entirely. 

This is a more toned down version of an otherwise vibrant look.






ROYAL RED.
I love Ruby Woo because it is such a simple but very effective lippy to have. 







On my eyelids I played around with hints of purple, green, yellow and hot pink.







In my waterline I have on a Green drugstore eyeshadow which I believe the red lips compliment effectively. I also have on a pair of Ardell Natural Lashes.






GIRL ABOUT TOWN.
This lipstick is just a hot pink with a  creamy consistency; its a  MAC product. It also manages to achieve a somewhat neutral look by complimenting the eye colours brilliantly without too much fuss.

SPLASH OF SUMMER

Hey Guys,

Here is the eyeshadow look with the Sleek Acid and Sunset Palettes. I enjoyed mixing the colours to create a bold but matte bright look. I would definitely recommend the Sunset Palette to everyone looking for a very good bright matte set of eyeshadow colours. They are extremely versatile and I always enjoy the looks I can create with them. This time I just decided to mix the colours a bit for a more varied look.

FLAT OUT FABULOUS.
I love this lipstick because its not quite red but at the same time its not quite pink either. Its a matte MAC lipstick.
I think it works well for a subtle yet attractive lipstick to use during the day.




On my waterline 



I have on a blue drugstore eye pencil to give that extra pop to the eyes. I have on a pair of Ardell eyelashes on my eyes.



UP THE AMP.
This lipstick always surprises me with its versatility. 





It always looks different dependent on the eyeshadows you are playing with. 
Here I think the look is more bright and matte. 



On my cheeks I have on Sleek Blush by 3 Flame. I like this blush set because it varies from rich red to subtle red/orange.

I also used the Sleek Contour, Highlighter and Bronzer on my face.

DANGEROUS RED: RUBY WOO.
I used Rimmel Eye pencil on my eyebrows and LA Girl concealer Fawn as my highlighter. 



I used Ben Nye powder in Banana to set the concealer and I also used Barry M Lip pencil on my lips to define them.


On my lips I have on MAC Ruby Woo. 

I absolutely adore this lipstick because it is so matte and bright and easy to apply. It instantly adds an extra bit of oomph to your look.
