Makeup tutorial...

It's about time that I did another one of these bad boys! Okay so last weekend I went to a party and for me that's just an excuse for me to try out some new ideas, and for Christmas I'd been given some new MUA eye palettes that I wanted to try out.

Before I start I just have to say that I didn't think this through properly before I went because I only took the one selfie before I went and I look completely out of it in all of the other photos that were taking on the night and so you can't get a great look at the full look. However you can roughly see what I was trying to achieve so I guess this is more about the products that I used.

Skin:

Natural Collection's Concealer and Tinted Moisturiser

NYC Smooth Skin Pressed Face Powder

Natural Collection's SunTint Bronzing Pearls in Tropical Tan

Natural Collection's Blushed Cheeks in Rosy Glow

Apply concealer under eyes and in any red areas or spots that you're trying to cover and then apple and blend tinted moisturiser all over face.

Dab powder all over face to reduce shine and dewiness.

Apply bronzer in a sweeping motion along cheekbones, top of the forehead, on the temples and also down along your jawline. I don't tend to use too much bronzer but some of you may want to make your cheekbones stand out a bit more so you just need to apply a bit more than I have.

Then dab blusher onto the apples of your cheeks and sweep upwards slightly along your bronzer line.

Finish by applying another finishing layer of powder just to lock everything in.

Eyes:

• Rimmel Fix and Perfect Primer
• MUA Twelfth Night Winter Shades Palette
• MUA Hall Of Fame Palette
• Master Shape Eyebrow Pencil in blonde
• Master Precise Eyeliner
• Rimmel Wonder'full Mascara

• Some people like to apply their eye makeup before their face makeup, but it's just a case of preference.
• Fill in your eyebrows, I always forget where I left my sharpener so I always end up having to search for it! But I will rarely ever leave the house without filling in my eyebrows because if not then they look a bit bald because my hair is so light :')
• Using your fingers, rub some primer onto those lovely eyelids of yours. Then using the colour 'Shy' from the Hall of Fame palette, sweep across lid and right up to he brow.
• Then sweep the colour 'Frost' from the Twelfth Night palette onto the lid and carry on around the inner corner and under the eye slightly.
• Going along the outer half of your lid and then following into the crease is the colour 'Starshine' from Twelfth Night.
• To finish with eyeshadows, and using a fluffy blending brush, take 'Titan' from Hall of Fame to the outer corner and using small stokes to start off with, blend in to the crease. Taking an eyeliner brush, carry this down under the lower lash line.
• Create your perfect eyeliner look over the top... for this look I've gone for a fairly dramatic flick following the bottom lash line up into the flick.
• To finish, apply mascara.

Lips:

• Maybelline Super Stay 24 Colour (I think in the colour Rose Dust)

• Although currently I am in love with my red lipstick, I wanted to go for a more nude colour for this party as when I wear red lipstick I always avoid doing certain things like eating in case crumbs get stuck to it or it smudges... of course that's the truth ;) But with these, what you have to do is put on a coat of the colour, leave to dry and then put on the clear coat. It seriously lasts forever and is a girls best friends when it comes to all nighters as it stays on forever... just keep applying the clear coat every so often:)

I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial type thing, maybe one day I'll make my own YouTube channel :')

I have a new music buys post coming up soon, which is currently being written and also a makeup haul as I'm off to treat myself tomorrow... I'll keep you updated :)
