Drag Queen Inspired Makeup

hello there lovelies ! 
long time no see, huh ? I am super busy with college work and all but I want to show you makeup that I created last Thursday. It was very spontaneous and I am super happy with it. I posted the picture on my facebook page and so many people loved it and I got few questions on what products I used and all sorts of things.
It is dragqueen-inspired look. I know that this isn't something you'd normally wear on a daily basis but I always admired drag queens as they put lot of effort into their looks and you can actually learn so many different, usefull makeup applicaion techniques. Also I like playing around with makeup and yes, I love the finished look.
here's the finished look(with an instagram filter)


details of the makeup.
I started of with the eyes, just to avoid any mess with eyeshadow fall outs etc. 
first I've drawn my 'new' crease line using black kohl pencil and then blended it out a bit using black and burgundy eyeshadows. This gave me a sharp edge but that's exactly what I wanted. Then I applied gold pigment onto the moving part of the lid to really make the eyes pop and glittery. 
Once I've done that I used liquid eyeliner to create winged line and then I joined top and bottom lid with the gel liner and blended all out to create smokey effect. 
At the end I applied false lashes from Ardell - Demi Wispies. 

once I've done the eyes, I moved in to the the rest of the face. 
first I used L'oreal true match foundation in W4 to give me tanned and slightly darker base. I applied two layers of the foundation to give me high coverage and flawless finish. 
Then I moved on to highlight the face using L'oreal Lumi Highlighting Concealer in light. I used it to highlight under my eyes, centre of the forehead, my nose, cupid's bow and my chin. I blended all out with my Real Techniques Sponge.
Once I highlighted my skin, it was time for a dramatic contour. For that I used my Sleek Makeup Contour Kit in Medium. I applied it to the hollows of my cheekbones, my temples, around my hairline, my nose (which you can clearly see as it's dramatic and strong, but that's what I wanted) and underneath my jaw line to really sculpt the face. I set my whole face with UD de-slick setting spray. 

my face was all ready now, so it was time for the lips. I first overdrawn my lips with a plum lip liner from oriflame, then filled my entire lips with it and then I applied L'oreal lipstick in 203 Rock 'N Mauve.
To make the lips look even fuller, I applied a dot of concealer to the centre of the lips. 






I love drag queen makeup, because it's dramatic, fun and absolutely amazing ! 
I will definitely create more drag-inspired looks in the future.

Lower Lid Colorful Makeup

hello there lovelies ! 

how are you doing ? 
today (actually tonight) I have got for you a everyday makeup tutorial, with a bit of colors on the lower lid just to make it more fun :D 
and for those of you who follow my blog, you already know that I love winged eyeliner on the top, but this time I kept it all simple without any eyeliner :D
P.S. all photos in this tutorial were taken without camera flash and no filter, because I wanted you to see how it looks like in reality :D

here's the finished look: 


now onto the tutorial:

1. Apply some eyeshadow base, if your eyelids tent to go oily throughout the day. Then sweep some matte beige eyeshadow onto entire lid, and define your crease with a soft, brown eyeshadow. 


2. Put a bright orange matte eyeshadow into inner corner of an eye. 


3. Next apply bright, matte pink eyeshadow into the middle part of the lower lid. 


4. Then, apply blue-ish purple eyeshadow into the outer corner of an eye, to make it more smokey :D


5. Then I decided to put some yellow matte eyeshadow into a inner corner just to brighten up the area and to open up the eye even more. 


6. Apply the same purple eyeshadow that you used earlier to the outer corner on the top lid, very close to lashes. This will make the lashes look fuller. 



7. Last but not least, apply few coats of mascara to the top and bottom lashes. 


as you can see it is very simple but yet effective makeup that you can wear everyday. 

Hope you liked it ;)

Matte Black & Purple Pigment Makeup Tutorial

hello there lovelies !
as I promised, I am here today with a black smokey eye tutorial.


if you want to create this look, simply follow these 8 steps. 



1. First of all, apply some eyeshadow base to your eyelid, all the way to the brow bone. This prevents the eyeshadow from creasing and makes the colours more vibrant. I used Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion. 


2. Using soft brown eyeshadow, define your crease by softly applying the eyeshadow using fluff brush. This will act as a transition colour and it will help you to blend out the black eyeshadow later on. 



3. Apply matte, black eyeshadow to the entire eyelid. 



4.  Blend out the edges using the same fluffy brush that you used before, so that there no harsh lines. 


5. Apply the same soft brown eyeshadow to the lower lid. Then use waterproof eyeliner on your waterline. 


6. Blend the eyeliner using black eyeshadow on a very small brush, so that you can get very close to the lashes. 


7. If you want you can leave it like that, or you can add some purple pigment to the centre of an eyelid. I used Essence pigment in the number 023. Very affordable and they're just amazing ! 


8. Apply liquid eyeliner along the top lashes, and wing it out slightly so it's more like a cat-eye effect. 
Apply few coats of mascara to the top and bottom lashes, and then if you want you can add some falsies ! 

and there you have it, very simple, but effective black smokey eye ;) suits all eye colours and it's great for a night out :D
hope you like it !

Face of the Night featuring Rimmel Kate Moss 107

hello there lovelies !
I had a lovely but kind of busy week in college, though I promised myself that I will write a new blog post, so today I've got for you a face of the night, which is basicly a makeup that I wore last night :D



I wanted to go bold on the lips, therefore I didn't go crazy on the eyes. I kept it simple, by only using neutral colors, and applied very natural lashes.

The lashes that I wore, were the iEnvy by Kiss called ''au naturale 01''. These are the fake eyelashes that I always buy because 1. they're only 3,50 euro in Penneys (Primark) 2. they look very natural 3. they're simple to apply and 4. the adhesive that comes with it is just amazing !



now it's the fun time: the lips. I started off with a dark plum lip liner from Oriflame. I just fell in love with tis colour. It blends really well and it stays on really well. It was on sale when I bought it, and I believe I paid around 3 euro for it, so you know - bargain !



Few weeks ago I bought a new Kate Moss lipstick from Rimmel in the shade 107. It's deep, dark, matte red, which I think is a must in the fall season. I am a big fan of matte lipsticks simply because I don't like glossy lips on myself. I bought it in Boots for 6,99 euro which once again is a bargain ! 
I must say that this lipstick stays on the lips and the colour is just amazing. 




do you like wearing bold lips and simple eyes ? or you're the girl who likes to go crazy on the eyes ?

Debs (Prom) Makeover

helo there lovelies !
So today I want to show Debs/Prom Makeover that I did today:

my friend Juste, is wearing red dress, so I wanted to keep it more classy, therefore I've decided to do kind of brown smokey eye, with a goldish colour on the lid and a bit of black in the corners. 
I also included individual lashes in the corners of the eyes, even though her own lashes are sooo long ! (jealous) and finished the eyes off with a black eyeshadow along the lashes. 

here are some pictures: 



and also a close up of an eye 


what do You guys think of it ? Hope you like it
