FOTD-Subtle Purple Smokey Eye Using My CrownBrush Smoke It Out Palette ♥

Hello Lovelies, I thought I would do a FOTD post for you This evening, I have never done one before but they are something I definitely want to start doing more of  as I love reading them myself so I hope you Enjoy them. Today I was wearing a Subtle Purple smokey eye which I created using my CrownBrush Smoke It out Palette, I really couldn't recommend this palette enough such beautiful colours and for such amazing value I am so glad I purchased this little beaut I will link it below so you can check it out :)

Colours I used. 

I used number 1 as my base colour so I applied this all over my lid and up to the brow bone, I then took number 2 all over my lid, I then applied number 3 to the outer corner of my eye and half way over the lid, I then applied number 4 in to the crease and blended all the colours together. I used number 5 to line my upper and lower lash lines, it's a gorgeous aubergine colour so works really well as a liner I then went back to number 1 and applied a little more to my brow bone and also used it to highlight the inner corners of my eyes. I used My MAC powerpoint pencil liner in the colour stubborn brown for lining my waterline and Benefits They're Real Mascara for both upper and lower lashes. 

Brushes Used. 

A CrownBrush C139 Stiff Tapered Crease Brush for applying colour to the lids and brow bone, CrownBrush Bullet Brush (pink handle) for applying the bold colour to the crease, a MAC 224 Brush for blending all the colours Together and lastly a CrownBrush Angled Brush for Lining upper and lower lash lines.

Whats In My Make-Up Bag//Updated ♥

Hello Beauties. 

Today I thought I would do you an updated version of a 'Whats in my make-up bag post' I did one a while ago and if you missed that you can find it here, but since then I have changed a few items and of course adapted it for summer. Now I use the word Make-up bag loosely as I have quite a large selection of make-up so it actually all lives in draws but the products I am showing you are what I have been loving and what I've been using during the summer months. Enjoy dolls.

As I have said before I loveeeeeee foundations, Nars Sheer Glow which is pictured in the middle here is my holy grail foundation I love and I really do think it's the best around and it's the one I reach for most days, however I just cant help myself from testing out others. on the left we have the YSL Touché Éclat foundation, this is a gorgeous Foundation It really does make the skin glow and look really dewy I find it has a light to medium coverage but it is build-able if you like a fuller coverage. On the end we have mac Face and Body, I used this a lot over the summer and especially in America as it's nice and light wearing and water resistant again this is build-able but I would say definitely the lightest coverage out of all 3 of these foundations.

In terms of concealers I am still loving The Rimmel match perfection 2in1 highlighter and conceal pen I think it does a great job at highlighting the face and I use this everyday this is like my 6th pen I'm on now, it's not so great for concealing tough blemishes though hence why I also use the Nars creamy radiance concealer for those days when you have more to cover. 

I received Hoola for my birthday off my friend and I have been loving it, it's the perfect colour to create the look of a natural tan it is also amazing for everyday contouring because of its matte finish. It is defiantly now my new fave. The Bourjois Cream Blushers have been a hit for everyone this summer I think, they give a gorgeous dewy natural pop of colour to the skin I went for the lightest pinky shade from the collection. Lastly my Illamasqua Blush in Morale my goodness this is GORGEOUS! I purchased this when I was in America it looks really shocking in the pan but it wears on the skin as a really pearly baby pink its just the best.

I am still loving They're Real by Benefit I just don't think you can beat the length this mascara gives its amazing. Scandaleyes Retro Glam by Rimmel is also Another beauty it gives really impressive volume to lashes and gives them  really that 60s flared out feel.

Im loving the Loreal Super Liner Brow Artist, its ideal for everyday soft brows and I love the fact there is a setting wax on the end to keep your brows fixed all day. When I want a more dramatic brow I still use my Brow-zings by Benefit.

I have been using a whole host of products on my lips recently so the above photo is a little selection of some of my faves. The Maybelline COLORsensational lipsticks (full post here), of course the ever famous Baby Lips In pink punch, My NARS velvet lip pencil in the colour Sex Machine and The Bourjois Color Boost Lip Pencil.

My 'Everyday' Make-up

Thank you for reading I hope you have enjoyed seeing the products Ive been using lately. Please leave me your comments I love reading them and appreciate every one I get :)
