Balinese 'Jepun' Frangipani Flower Inspired Summer Makeup Tutorial

The unique petal design and colours of frangipanis signifies a tropical feeling and remind me of the beautiful island of Bali, one of my favourite places to visit in the Summer. However, in Bali these flowers are known as 'Jepun'. I was inspired by these flowers to create a makeup look that combines the soft yellow and white tones with a splash of brighter colours commonly found on this type of flower.
Start by applying an eye primer and a white eyeliner all over the lids and up towards the brow bone to create a base for the eye shadow.

 
The palette I am using is the Makeup Revolution Colour Chaos Salvation Palette. With a tapered blending brush, I am defining my crease with 'Pink Obsessed' and blending to soften the edges.
 
On the lid, I am using a flat shadow brush to pat an opaque layer of 'TipX'. 
On the outer half of the lid, I am patting 'Super Y' and blending with the white for a subtle transition. 
On the lower lash line, I am lining the waterline with a black kohl pencil and blending it out with 'Needed To...' for a slightly smokey effect. 
In the inner corner, I am dotting the shade 'I said Go' and blending to soften the edges.
Then I am drawing a winged line with liquid liner.
On my cheeks I am using a light pink blush and I am also using a nude lip gloss.

How To: Apply False Nails

Image
Hey guys Today I thought of doing a quick post today. Today I wanted to do a 'How To' post and this one is Applying False Nails. Even though it's easy, you need to do it properly so they look as natural as possible. And I'm going to tell you how I apply my false nails. You need: False Nails (you can get them cheap in supermarkets, makeup stores etc) Nail Glue (most nails come with glue, but you can buy glue at Superdrug for around £4 ( www.superdrug.co.uk ) Cuticle Pusher or cuticle stick Nail scissors (curved work best) Emery board 1) Begin by selecting the false nails that best fit your natural nail. It needs to be accurate because it will look more realistic. 2) Use a cuticle stick/pusher and gently push your cuticles back to avoid the nail sticking to it (which, will hurt if you take them off!!) If you want, you can cut the cuticles off. 3) Apply nail glue all over the natural nail. Be careful with the glue - it bonds in seconds, difficult to remove

MUA Cosmetics Review

Hey everyone Last week for my birthday, I went shopping and while I was in Superdrug and I  picked up some things from MUA (Makeup Academy). There are some products here I haven't tried, one product I have but not this particular name. I actually fell in love with this brand when it was a very small company when everything was £1! Then the company expanded which made me very happy and so I tried   these products and I have mixed reviews. The first product I am reviewing is the BB Cream. This is £4 in the MUA online store ( www.muastore.co.uk ) or in Superdrug ( www.superdrug.com ). I wanted a BB Cream because I find foundation is too heavy and is bad for your skin and I started to go off tinted moisturizer. Anyway, for the price in general is OK for the product. I bought Shade Medium last week and I think this is a bit too dark for me even though the medium and light shade are very similar. The BB Cream is easy to blend. For me, this is going to be mixed with something light
