After I have finished those posts I am going to stop blogging until September because my shifts during the summer holidays will be through the roof and it will be so busy and I just won't have time to focus on my blog and any new content, but I will still be sharing li

Welcome back! Today's look is a smokey halo eye makeup look perfect for a date night at this time of year as it is quite soft and very wearable.

Makeup May: Smokey Purple

If you saw my Huge London Haul you'll know I bought an eye shadow pencil from 3ina in London and I absolutely love the pencil and wanted to use it in a tutorial. I created a very simple look on the lids and then made it really bold on the lower lash line using the pencil.

All of May is dedicated to makeup and I will be posting a different makeup look three times a week until the end of the month and today I am starting off with a really easy copper glittery eye using a gorgeous product I've had for ages but never got around to using. This look is perfect for any night time-glam occasion and it will pair really nicely with any lip colour as well.
