Warm Autumn Smoky Eye

This makeup look isn't an average smoky eye, I've incorporated some sunset shades to add some warmth to the smoky grey shade. I really love this look, I think its a different look to what I'd normally go for during Autumn.
I am using two palettes for this look; the new Sleek Force of Nature Palette and the Pantone 24 Colour Eye Shadow Palette. This palette is from Boots and it is part of the Christmas gift range and I purchased it as an early Christmas present for me.
I am mixing the shades '17 1224' and '14 1318' from the Pantone palette and blending this through my crease and towards the brow bone using a large fluffy blending brush.   
 Moving onto the Sleek palette, I am taking the shade 'Sunset' on a precise crease brush and blending this directly into the crease and into the gold shade to make sure there are no harsh lines.
 Next with a flat shadow brush, I am patting the shade '17 2601' all over the lid.
To deepen the outer crease, I am using the shade 'Cloudburst' on a pointed crease brush and buffing this into the outer V.  
 To finish off the eyes I am using the Maybelline Gel Liner and Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara.
 What is your go to Autumn makeup look?

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
