Halloween cat eye makeup!







HALLOWEEN CAT EYE MAKEUP.

All eye shadows I have used from Mac and lovely Mac lipstick in shade Diva, great for Halloween makeup and also it is a great shade for autumn makeup as it is a gorgeous dark cranberry matte color. I have used black soft kohl pencil and gone for ombre look on my lips which I love. You can use any black pencil or black gel.
 Foundation I used is from Illamasqua http://www.illamasqua.com/shop/products/complexion/foundations/rf-215-rich-liquid-foundation  Illamasqua is a great makeup brand and they have got a wide range of colors and great if you want to do full coverage or theatrical makeup.
Concealer I actually used Becca foundation stick in shade Banana.
If you want makeup to last spray with my all times favorite Mac Fix spray mist. Also it is a great one if you want to enhance and highlight eye-shadow pigments or have that metallic wet looking effect.
For cat wicks I used Clinique dark brown eye pencil and dotted around and draw few wicks.
Contouring and blusher is choice of yours, I used Bourjois Maxi delight bronzer http://www.boots.com/en/Bourjois-Paris-Maxi-Delight-Bronzer_1321857/?cm_mmc=pla-_-google-_-PLAs-_-Boots+Shopping+-+Category+-+Beauty
Lace ears from topshop  http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/halloween-3473593/lace-ears-3453618?bi=1&ps=20  and Mac blusher Frankly Scarlet which is sooooo pigmented.
One thing I definitely recommend put a loose powder under your eyes while you are creating your eyes makeup and once you have finished with eyes wipe that loose powder off  otherwise can end up messy and you don't want that!
Also Eye tattoo is from Topshop which I used above my eyebrows, but you can use how you would like to. Also comes with glittery eyebrows which I haven't used it yet.
You would probably think how long it took me to remove that makeup off :)  It was so quick with Garnier micellar cleaning water  http://www.garnier.co.uk/skin-care/beauty/garnier/garnier-essentials/micellar-cleansing-water which is a great dupe of Bioderma Sensibio H2O http://www.escentual.com/bioderma/bioderma013/

3 Evening make-up looks.


I think you can please anyone with Stila eye-shadow palette 'in the light'. In the palette is 10 eye-shadows, very pigmented and  butterie hence so easy to apply.  Also comes with smudge stick waterproof eye liner in dark brown. I have used shades Kitten all over the lid even all over eyebrow area with Mac 217 brush, Sunset in a crease, outer corner of the eye and on the lower lash line with Mac 224 brush and shade Ebony with Mac 212 flat definer brush to define eye with colour. Shade Ebony which is blackish color I applied very close to the lush line and smudged out so gives that soft look and definition instead of harsh black eyeliner. Shade Kitten is such a beautiful colour it will reflect the light and will brighten up your eyes. So beautiful and classy!:) I have used this shade quite a lot for bridal makeup. Applied gorgeous brown pencil on inner waterline for even more bigger eyes. Contoured with Chanel soleil tan de chanel bronzer and Bobbi Brown 24 karat shimmer brick.  Powdered with Makeup Forever translucent HD powder for long lasting finish and good to go:) Lips were applied later in the evening with Mac lipstick in shade Coral Bliss. 

Evening makeup using Dior Star new foundation and we both agreed - IT IS AMAZING!:) I think they have got it just all right with this product. Spectacular brightening -weightless perfection, SPF 30, long lasting, medium coverage and quite few shades to choose from. Shade 021 linen been used for this picture. 9 times out of 10 I am applying Laura Mercier hydration primer before foundation, but for this look been used Mac Strobe cream for illuminating dewy effect. Used Urban Decay  new Naked 3 palette shades Dust, Buzz, Blackheart and  Mac lip pencils Soar and Spice which are quite popular at the moment as been used by famous Kardashians little sister  Kylie Jenner. Think Kylie's makeup look at the moment is most influential and watched makeup look in you tube and other social media sites. Kinda mauve pinkie nudie shade. Also we have used Mac pro longwear lip pencil in shade Bittersweet, but not on  the lips! I applied on inner rim waterline. Ye Ye I know I know its a lip pencil, but one birdie recommended me to try and we did. It is THE most gorgeous brownie red shade, very soft and long lasting. It is a blue eyes pop!:) Course you can use for any color eyes.  Like I said it is a lip pencil so I can't tell you how your eyes will react and  I am sure Mac would prefer to use it for lips just  how it says on the packaging, but makeup is about trying and testing and we did and we loved it :)  We used Bobbi Brown Bronze shimmer brick and Nars blush in shade Desire. How can we go without  theBalm Mary Lou Manizer, it's definitely became my second favorite highlighter after Mac Soft and Gentle. We used Mac clear brow gel, Lancome Hypnose drama mascara, Nars radiant concealer in shade Vanilla, Soap and Glory setting powder Kick Ass to set concealer and sprayed all face with Mac setting spray Fix and Skin finishing mist. I used Real Techniques makeup brushes. Vollaa, hope you like it. 

Laura Mercier hydration primer and yes finally Dior Star foundation which I just love it. My shade is 031 sand.  It is definitely a winner for me this year. Also I wanted to try NYX eye-shadow in Walnut. I am so into redie brown coppery shades especially autumn time:) It is a great quality eye-shadow and easy to apply and I think its only around £4 mark.  Also Mac bittersweet pro longwear lip pencil on inner waterline, I just loooove it so much, makes my blue eyes pop even more. To blend all out making sure there is no harsh lines I have used Mac eye-shadow in shade Cork. For Lips Mac lip pencil in Soar, Elf studio eyebrow treat in shade light, for cheeks Mac blusher in Margins and  the Balm Mary Lou Manizer for highlighting. Simple and easy and less is more for this particular look.

Food network candle

Smells delicious, long burner, reusable, great price! Love love love this candle and this concept. Bought it from Tk Maxx think for £5. I haven't seen it there before must be one of, but they still have few more up for sale. If you into that kinda candle things, go and grab one.
FOOD NETWORK SALTED CARAMEL POPCORN CANDLE - for guilt-free snacking. Once the candle has burned, this is ideal dish for baking and serving individual desserts or side dishes (without the lid and labels, it's oven safe up to 350 F), or use it as a salt cellar to make it easy to grab a pinch. Cleaning instructions. Remove the lid and labels. Freeze the jar for at least an hour, then flip upside down and tap the bottom, any remaining wax will fall right out. Wash in the dishwasher, but hand-wash the lid and it's good to go.

Essie small nail polish collection winter/hiver.

This Essie collection winter/hiver nail polish pack is amazing. Comes with 4 small 5ml nail polishes. Although says winter I think its perfect for autumn colours especially loving shade called Shearling Darling which you can see in the picture. It's like drinking hot chocolate in a cold autumn day:) Also there is a redish shade called Toggle to the top which is great to jazz it up for some party. I've applied two layers. Small applicator so very easy to apply and cover smallest parts on the nail plate. I have applied base coat Sally Hansen advanced hard nails and top coat which is my all time favorites by butter London hard wear P.D.quick topcoat for longer lasting finish. All in all a great finder:)

Also autumn and winter is round the corner, weather is changing rapidly every day and that can affect hair structure too. So there we go, I have gone that extra mile and will look after my hair bit more now. Also been a mum my hair very often is up in ponytail or in a messy bun therefore they haven't got time to breathe. Also I am desperately seeking for volume in my hair. So I will update you all how I am getting on and if this splurge was worth the money!

At the back of the bottle written this which I think is quite cool. You must have a sense of humor to use our products! Quit your bitchin'! Use Maxxed-out non-aerosol hairspray with P.M.S. complex (Pump. Massive. Style.). This quick drying unisex formula guarantees massive hold and super shine.

Moroccan oil repair mini kit -  I think we just cant go wrong with this one. I have got big hopes up for this one too. I have looked where you can buy exactly this kit as I had a sneak peak chance to purchase from Aston & Fincher which is professional hair and beauty supplies. There is similar one in feel unique, but bit more expensive as comes in Moroccan oil bag etc.  http://www.feelunique.com/p/Moroccanoil-Moisture-and-Repair-Travel-Kit
