Selena Gomez Inspired Make-Up Tutorial || KCA14

 

 

A few weeks ago the Kids Choice Awards took place in Los Angeles, and of course as I scanning photos of the orange carpet for make-up inspiration and even though Selena Gomez didn't walk the carpet she was there and she did pick up an award. I loved her make-up it was soft and dewy with gold eyeshadow and fluttery lashes along side a peachy pink cheek and lip. Here the products I used to recreate the look and how I did it...

Face -

Laura Mercier - Oil-Free Foundation Primer

Mac - Studio Sculpt Foundation

Benefit - High Beam Highlighter

Collection - Lasting Perfection Concealer

Mac - Prep & Prime Highlighter in Radiant Rose

Rimmel - Stay Matte Pressed Powder

Nars - Laguna Bronzer

Benefit - Hoola Bronzer 

Benefit - Coralista Blush

 

Eyes -

 

Mac - Painterly Paint Pot

Urban Decay - Naked 2 Palette - Half Baked e/s

Mac - Wedge & Charcoal Brown Eyeshadow

Soap & Glory - Smoulder Kohl in Cocoa Bean

Maybelline - The Falsies Black Drama Mascara

The Vintage Cosmetic Company - Gracie False Eyelashes

 

Brows -

 

Mac - Omega & Charcoal Brown Eyeshadow

Maybelline - Brow Drama in Dark Brown

 

Lips -

 

Mac - Plink! Lipstick

Nyx - Mega Shine Lipgloss in Nude Pink

 

Face - Selenas skin is very tanned and dewy, sadly I am not tanned but I have made my foundation look dewy but mixing some high beam into my foundation - now don't go crazy with this stuff, a little goes a long way! She also has completely flawless skin so I am faking that by using a medium to full coverage foundation which is studio sculpt. I am then concealing any problem area with my beloved Collection - Lasting Perfection Concealer. For under the eyes I am using two concealer so that I look really awake and so there is no discolouration. To set everything in place I am using a pressed powder but I am only use a little bit as I want to set the make-up but I want to keep the dewy effect. Selena doesn't have an intense contour but I defiantly want to add a bit to define my face so I am using Benefit - Hoola lightly along my cheekbones, temples and jawline. As Selena is looking very bronzed I am using Nars Laguna (which I recently review ) all around my face where I put the hoola and using whatever is left on my brush through the centre of my face to even the colour out. She has a muted coral pink on her cheeks but it defiantly has a sheen to it so I am using Benefit - Coralista which is the perfect blush with a bit more of high beam along my cheekbones and cupids bow to finish the look off.

 

Eyes- For a base I used Mac's Painterly Paint Pot, then using a mac #224 brush I used wedge as my transition colour in my crease. I used half baked e/s from urban decay 3/4 of the way across my lid and all around my eye. Selena defiantly went to town on the gold eyeshadow around the eye so don't be afraid just make sure to blend so it's not to harsh. You can't see Selena's eye make-up that well especially since she didn't walk the carpet but she defiantly had a darker colour in her outer crease. To darken the look I am using charcoal brown and blending it out. I am then put a thin line of brown pencil along my upper and lower lash line, not a lot but just enough to fill the space - I am only putting this about 3/4 of the way along my upper lash line as you can tell Selena doesn't have any liner in her inner corner. I am putting some mascara on my upper and lower lashes and then finishing the eyes of with some lashes that are full and gives the lashes both length and volume.

 

Brows - Selena has quite straight eyebrows and they're not overly groomed. I filled my eyebrows in with omega and then I used the darker colour charcoal brown on the outer part of my brows - using two colours makes it look more natural. I then sealed my brows in place with Maybelline - Brow Drama.

 

Lips - Selena kept her lips simple and glossy with just a light peachy pink lipstick - I used Plink! with is a seashell pink and its a lustre finish so its quite sheer. Her lips are also very glossy, I used Nyx mega shine lipgloss in nude pink which is really more of a peachy pink - which is the perfect colour for this look!

If you would like to see a photo of Selena at the kca's, there is one on my instagram (link in the sidebar or at bowsandbecki). I hope you enjoyed and if you would like me to re-create a specific look then you can comment below or tweet me @BowsBeautyB and I'll be happy to re-create! Thanks for Reading!

What's on my Face #4 // Simple Eyes and Bright Lips

 

I've always loved all colours of lipstick from the perfect nude to a crisp red lip and everything in-between but never felt confident until recently to wear bright bold colours myself. Recently I have fallen in love with Mac's lipstick in Chatterbox it's the perfect pink - not at all pale or nude but its also not too bright and in your face, its in the middle ground! I love to pair a brighter lip with a really simple eye look sometime just a light eyeshadow all over my lid and some mascara. I have also found it is much quicker to through on a bright lip than doing a 3 point smokey eye! Here's my new favourite look...

 

Face -

 

Nars - Sheer Glow Foundation - Mont Blanc

Collection - Lasting Perfection Concealer - 1 Fair

Rimmel - Stay Matte Powder - 003 Sandstorm

Nars - Laguna Bronzer

Mac - Pinch O'Peaches and Well Dressed Blush

Laura Mercier - Matte Radiance Baked Powder - 01 Highlight

 

Eyes -

 

Mac - Ricepaper Eyeshadow

Maybelline - Eye Studio Gel Liner - 01 Black

Maybelline - The Falsies Mascara
Mac - Charcoal Brown Eyeshadow (brows)
Maybelline - Brow Drama in Dark Brown

 

Lips -

 

Mac - Chatterbox Lipstick

I have been trying Nars Sheer Glow recently as I got 2 bottles for my freelance kit and wanted to play about with it so I can get a feel for it and figure out how it works but I just can't seem to love it as much as I want to! Half way through the day it goes patchy and just doesn't sit right on my skin - if you have this can you please help me out and tell me how you work with it! I have also been mixing colours recently and my favourite blush has been Pinch O'Peaches and Well Dressed both by mac it creates the perfect colour and has been the only blush I have worn for the last month - there defiantly going to be in my monthly favourites! As I said earlier I have fallen in love with Chatterbox lipstick from mac, I have always loved mac lipsticks they are my favourite overall lipstick and also go for them but this is one I got free with the back to mac programme and forgot about. It has been sitting in my lipstick drawer for a few months just sitting there and now it is constantly being used. It will most likely be completely used up before the beginning of summer and I'll of course have to get another one for summer as it is a perfect summer colour!

Your probably wondering where I've been for the last month and to be honest I've been wondering the same thing! The month of February has defiantly been a roller-coaster that had its down more than ups, sadly. I as you may know am training to become a fully qualified make-up artist and I am qualified! I haven't finish my course yet still got a little bit to go but I am qualified - woohoo!!! Along with qualifying also means I am starting up my own business which takes a lot of time, much more than you'd expect. But as for the downs my dad was seriously unwell in hospital, one of my dogs needed to have her ear cut out and has stitches all over it. So as you can tell I have had a crazy month and well March has just flown back and don't really know what I've done!  I have been really wanting to blog for so long but just haven't had the time or the words to be honest! I am looking forward to getting back to blogging and have lots of post coming your way and I'm looking forward to getting back to my 3 posts a week (Monday, Wednesday & Saturday.) I am going to be doing a lot more make-up tutorial type of posts as that is where my true passion lies hopefully at least 1-2 a week! If you have any requests for types of looks you would like me to create or re-create please let me know in the comments or on twitter ( @BowsBeautyB )

I hope you enjoyed this post and I am glad to be back blogging! I also hope you liked this make-up that I did. And also let me know what type of posts you would like to see! Thanks for Reading!

What's on my Face #3 // Simple Eyes & Coral Lips

 

 

I am coming to you today with another "What's on my Face" post I started these at the end of last summer and keep planning on doing them, I even begin writing them but never finish! I am trying to get back to what kind of posts I love to do and since this I am a total make-up geek naturally I love showing you what make-up I'm loving and wearing.

 

 MAC - Face & Body Foundation

MAC - Studio Finish Concealer

Rimmel - Stay Matte Powder

Nars - Laguna Bronzer

Benefit - Coralista

Laura Mercier - Radiance Baked Powder - Highlight 01

 

Urban Decay - Naked 2 Palette - Foxy & Tease

Maybelline - Eye Studio Gel Liner - 01 Black

Maybelline - The Falsies Black Drama Mascara

 

YSL - Rouge Volupte Lipstick in 13 Peach Passion

 

Most of these products are my must have products and some of them I have been using for years. Face & Body foundation is really quite amazing! You have to try it, after the first use you will use it forever (on and off of course as we can't leave the other foundations lying in our beauty drawers!) Defiantly the most versatile foundation out there! Nars Laguna is a new addition and it defiantly is as good as every one says it is! For my eyes I kept it very simple with foxy all over my eyelid and I've also used it as my brow bone highlight, for definition in my crease I used tease - which I also used it on my lower lash line. And you can't forget the gel liner and mascara to make your lashes stand out. For my peachy coral lips I used my favourite YSL - Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Peach Passion, I love this colour it is perfect for spring and summer - which it is in my head even though it really isn't!

I also have to add that, you may notice that my blog has had a little bit of a make-over! I have had about five makeover of my blogs that I've had. Three on this one alone! What can I say I get board easily and we'll I've never totally loved everything about my blog. So I took it on my self and did the entire thing - even the coding all by myself. I have to say I really am proud of myself and what I've created and I suppose the saying is true - If you want something done right, do it yourself! I'd love to know what you think of my new design!
 

Do you like any of the products I used?
 

Maybelline - The Falsies Black Drama Mascara // Review

We are all after long flutters lashes and to be honest we all need a good mascara that gives out lashes volume and length that actually stays on your lashes and doesn't end up down your face! I have tried many mascaras in my time in fact within the last few months I've bought three different Maybelline mascaras just because it need to try them all and they all do such different jobs! I'm sure you have all heard of The Falsies by Maybelline it is spoken of quite highly from  lots of bloggers and I've defiantly joined the Maybelline The Falsies fan club without a doubt! In this photo I only have mascara on no other make-up, not even concealer or foundation just so you can get a good idea of what the mascara actually looks like. I have however curled my eyelashes as I refuse to put mascara on un-curled lashes!

 

Maybelline says: "False lash glam with a flare, instantly! Patented Spoon Curler Brush fans out lashes from corner-to-corner, while our Pro-Keratin formula instantly builds volume without clumping. Unique flexible wand lifts and separates lashes to provide the look of 300% more visible, lashes." I defiantly agree that it goes corner to corner, it's really easy to get the corner lashes.    

The packaging is similar to most of the Maybelline mascaras with the curved top and bottom, and since this is the black drama version it has the black lace print at the top. As I mentioned above the wand is curved with helps to catch all lashes and give them extra volume, it also makes it easy to do your bottom lashes without making them clump together. It is priced at £7.99 available at Boots, as well as Superdrug.

Overall I absolutely love this mascara, I have a natural love for Maybelline mascaras as I have tried the majority of them and have loved all the ones I have tried. This is however one of my favourites as that they do. I would say its the mascara between the mega plush mascara and the rocket volume mascara (both by Maybelline) as it gives the length the mega plush gives you get it still gives volume similar to the rocket volume. If you have tried all three you will totally understand what I mean. I would defiantly recommend this mascara weather you have tried almost every mascara out there or your new to make-up it's a must to your collection and you have to give it a try!

 

Have you tried The Falsies?

 

My 2013 Favourites // Beauty Edit

 

 

I have a rather exciting post today but I do warn you it is defiantly without a chance going to be a long one! I'm going to share with you my favourites items for the entire year of 2013 from skin care, nails & make-up. I was going to share with you my fashion favourites but I didn't think that was going to be very exciting and I think my beauty favourites are going to be long enough but if you would like to see fashion favourites and my other favourites like movies, music and tv - let just let me know and I'll be happy to do them for you! Any way lets get into my beauty favourites ... 

 

Beauty -

 

Skin Care

 

Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser, Bioderma - Sensibio H20 Cleansing Water, First Aid Beauty - Ultra Repair Cream, Blistex - Intensive Moisturiser.

 

I have mentioned in a few posts that in the last year my skin has really broken out and I have had acne. In my recent Skin Care Routine - Link Here, I mentioned the products that have helped to treat it and heal it. I have also had really chapped lips so the Blistex Intensive Moisturiser was a god send to my sore chapped lips!

 

Body Care

 

Soap & Glory - Clean On Me Creamy Shower Gel,  Soap & Glory - The Righteous Butter, The Body Shop - Cranberry Joy Body Butter.

 

I haven't got many body care favourites as I neglected using them to be honest! I normally don't have time to but body moisturiser/ butter on after a shower as I typically an running late and don't have time for it but I'm defiantly going to try more this year!

 

Fragrance

 

Ted Baker - Butterfly Body Spray, Giorgio Armani - Armani Code.

 

Ted Baker is my everyday scent as it's light and fresh also it's cheap! And Giorgio Armani is what I normally wear when I'm going out or somewhere nice.

 

Hair

 

Denmark - Tangle Tamer Hairbrush, TRESemme - Instant Refresh Dry Shampoo, Bed Head - Hard Head Hairspray.

 

This year I have really learnt a lot when it comes it hair. I used to just have it straight but now its rarely straight and is mostly curled or wavy. I have also learnt how to put my hair in nice ponytails, messy buns and different types of braids! These are just a few products that I have really loved this year I have especially loved TRESemme Dry shampoo even if my hairs not greasy I use it for volume also the Bed Head hairspray keeps my curls in for days!

 

Nails

 

Essie - Fiji, OPI - Lucky Lucky Lavender, Essie - Off The Shoulder, OPI - I'm All Ears, Rimmel - Space Dusts in Aurora & Moon Walking, Essie - Bahama Mama, Seche Vite - Dry Fast Top Coat.

These are just a few of my favourite nail polishes! I defiantly loved have my nails painted in fact I think there was only a few times where my nails were done. Essie Fiji was by far my favourite polish it I think it shows that I've used the entire bottle up in about 3 months! I have a post about this polish here! Also I cant recommend the Seche Vite top coat enough it really does dry your nails in minutes!

 

Make-Up

 

MAC - Fix+, MAC - Studio Sculpt Foundation, Chanel - Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation, Collection - Lasting Perfection Concealer, MAC - Studio Finish Concealer, Rimmel - Stay Matte Powder, MAC - Well Dressed Blush, Benefit - Coralista, Benefit - Hoola, Bourjois - Bronzing Powder - 51, Elf - Golden Bronzer in Golden .

If your a make-up junkie like myself then you'll be able to imagine what it was like to try an narrow down all my make-up goodies! I have kept it pretty simple and if you look back over my posts you'll be able to see most of these products featured. I really love the look of perfect skin from the base all the way to contour, blush and high light - these are the products that I use mostly to create this look!

 

Urban Decay - Naked 2, MAC - Eye Shadows in Naked Lunch, Rice Paper, All That Glitters, Charcoal Brown, Satin Taupe & Sketch, Maybelline - Brow Drama in Dark Brown, Soap & Glory - Super Cat Liquid Liner, Maybelline - Eye Studio Gel Liner in 01 Black, Maybelline - Mega Plush Mascara, Maybelline - Volume Express Mascara.

I am an eye shadow girl through and though and through so the amount of eye  shadows I've picked is limited, those are my most used mac shades which are my all time favourite and my favourite shades from my naked 2 palette would have to be foxy, bootycall, half baked & tease. I have also found the Maybelline gel liner and well can't believe how good it is - even better than my mac fluidline!

 

Maybelline - Baby Lips in Intense Care, Peach Kiss & Pink Punch, MAC - Lipstick in Shy Girl, Plink!, Crème Cup & Angel, YSL - Rouge Volupte Shine in 13 Peach Passion, MAC - Crème Sheen Glass in Boy Bait.

I have waited for the famous baby lips to come out for what felt like years (well it was but still!) And I haven't been disappointed - to read my full thoughts on the baby lips I did an in depth review - right here! I have also fallen in love even more with lipsticks, if that was at all possible - especially MAC lipsticks. I have done a few posts on them like Plink!, Creme Cup. I have also loved the gorgeous YSL lipstick which I have also reviewed, right here!

 

Tools

 

Tweezerman - Mini Slant Tweezers, Real Techniques - Core Collection, Starter Set, Expert Face Brush & Blush Brush, MAC - #. 224

I haven't pictured all the brushes as that's a lot of brushes! But if you want to see full pictures I have two detailed post that you can see all about my favourite tools - My Ten Most Used Beauty Tools and Real Techniquies Review // My Collection.

 

I hoped you enjoyed this post, it was both fun and challenging trying to try and narrow my favourites down! I am really looking forward to the new year, I also have a list of products that I've wanted for quite sometime that I'm going to get over the next few months!

New Years Eve Make-Up // Half Baked & Charcoal Brown

 

 

 

I have never really been one to celebrate New Years Eve but I do love the fact that you can go all out with the sparkles and glitter and it's allowed (within reason of course!) Often you want to start the New Year looking your best so we tend to go that little extra step to look our best. A lot of time will go into your make-up, hair, nails and of course your outfit. I am going to show you a make-up look which would be very similar to what I would wear if I was doing something exciting but I properly going to do something very casual - if I do anything at all! Any way let's get into this as it's going to be a long one so you might want to get a cuppa tea!

I am going to start with clean moisturised skin, I am then going to use a primer as New Years Night is probably going to be a long one and you'll need your make-up to withstand all the fun! I am using Rimmel - Fix & Perfect Pro Primer - its quite think but I love how it's quite think and really helps your products last and go on easily.

For concealer I am using my trusted Collection - Lasting perfection Concealer on any blemishes and under my eyes as well as on my eyelids as this also makes a great eye-shadow primer. For foundation I am using MAC- Studio Sculpt Foundation, I am using this as it is a full coverage and it makes your skin look as perfect as well my skin could be! For extra coverage on problematic areas like my skin I am going to use a full coverage concealer just so my skin looks clear and flawless. The full coverage concealer I am using is MAC - Studio Finish Concealer. 

I am then going to leave my base there and going on to do my eyebrows and my eyes. For eyebrows I am going to start of by using a plain mascara spule and brushing them through so that there neat and so there the shape I want them to be. I am then going to start by lightly filling in my eyebrows with Rimmel - Eyebrow Pencil in 001 Dark Brown - then with an angled brush and MAC - Charcoal Brown Eye shadow I am going to fill my eyebrows so that there are no gaps or sparse areas. To neaten them up and make them stand out I am going to use another angled brush and go around my eyebrows with the same MAC concealer as before ( Studio Finish ) I am then going to use a flat brush and blend it out. I am then going to set my eyebrows so they don't budge with Maybelline - Brow Drama in Dark Brown and this will act like hairspray for your eyebrows!

Moving onto our eyes and I've actually kept them pretty simple. I have already primed my eyes with my collection concealer and I am going to go straight in with Half Baked by Urban Decay this is a gorgeous gold and I'm going to put it all over my lid concentrating the colour in the inner half of my eye. I am then use MAC - Charcoal Brown Eye Shadow in my crease and outer corner for definition. I am then using Maybelline - Eye Studio Gel Liner along my upper lash line and slightly flicking it out but I want it to be very subtle flick. I am of course curling my eyelashes and using Maybelline - Rocket Volume mascara as it gives my lashes volume and holds the curl quite well. This would be the time to apply false lashes which if I where going out I would apply them but in actual fact I was looking after my baby nephew today and he likes to touch your face as it is! Defiantly didn't fancy him pulling lashes off of me! To finish my eyes off I am using Soap & Glory Smoulder Kohl in Cocoa Bean in my water line and charcoal brown on a pointed brush to smudge it out and you can't forget to put mascara on your lower lashes!

To finish by base I am going use my YSL - Touché Éclat under my eyes between my eyebrows/ on the centre of my fore head and on my cupid bow and blend it out with my finger to blend it naturally. I am then going to contour with Benefit - Hoola under my cheek bones, temples, corner of my nose and on my chin as well as on my neck. I am then then going to highlight my cheekbones with Soap & Glory's - Solar Powder and I'm going to use the lighter side. For blush I wanted something bright so that it would pick my skin back up so that my face doesn't look completely flat! I am using MAC - Pinch O'Peaches. I am then going to set everything with Rimmel - Stay Matte Powder if you have oily skin your going to want to powder once you've finished using any liquid/ cream products but since I'm just using the powder to help set my make-up I'm just using a touch at the end.

Now all that's left to do is lips! I am using a bright pink which is MAC - Chatterbox which is an amplified finish so the colour will really pop and the colour will also last well. I am normally just a lipstick girl and rarely go for a gloss but I thought I might as well go all out so I am using MAC - Crème Sheen Glass in Boy Bait which is a natural colour so it will tone they lipstick down but it does make a gorgeous colour and you defiantly don't need much of the gloss!

To finish it all off and set it all into place so that nothing moves all day/night I am going to use a few sprays of MAC - Fix+ which will set it in place and thought-out the day or night if you feel really hot then a few sprays of fix+ will definitely cool you down!

I hope you enjoyed this look! I have to say sorry about the photos I originally did the make-up and photos yesterday (trying to be organised) but it got so dark so early and they photos didn't turn out good enough and so I got up super early this morning and re-did the make-up and then when it started to get bright it then started to down pour and it was again super dark and cloudy! So I hope they photos are good enough but I am a total perfectionist and if something isn't to a certain standard I just won't post it - you don't want to know the amount of post I've scrapped because they weren't good enough! I have problems I know! This is going to be my last post of 2013!!! Can you believe its going to be 2014 in two days - it actually scares me. I will be back on New Years Day with another post which I'm really looking forward to writing!

Happy New Year!

What are you doing this New Years Eve?

 

December Beauty Haul // Babyliss, Soap & Glory, Rimmel & Maybelline

 

Today I bringing you a haul, this is a few beauty bits that I've bought over the last month as I've just been buying little bits here and there. I have been very good in the sales and only bought 3 things! Two Soap & Glory sets one for me and one for my pro kit and a deep waver which is half price but only for a few more days which I will explain later. This month it was also my birthday month so I wanted to get a few little make-up goodies so that I could be something special with my make-up. I was going to do a What's on my Face birthday edition but before I could take pictures I had a massive panic attack and cried it all off so I might re-create it if it's something you'd be interested in seeing as it did involve glitter! Anyway let me show you what I've gotten this month...

Babyliss - Boutique Deep Waves

 

On a boots e-mail a few days ago I seen that they had this deep waver that's normally priced at £49.99 is now only £29.99 and I was going to get a deep waver for the summer months. I went across to boots to look at it and wasn't sure if I really need it but my mum convinced me just to get it since it is at such a great price. I then realised at the tills that I had a £5 off when you spend £25 on electrical appliances, I also had a birthday month double points voucher and 250 points when you spend £25 which means I got a shed load of points on my advantage card and got an extra £5 off a product that was already half price! That's what I call a bargain! I've only used it once as I did only get it yesterday but it seems to be really good and I love the look it gives. I will be sure to do a full review once I've used it more! I believe it is only half price until the 2nd of January so if you want it you better go get it quick! If you want to see the look it gives check back here tomorrow when I'll be posting my New Years Eve Make-Up Look and I'll have my hair waved in the pictures!

 

 

Rimmel - Space Dust in Shooting Star, Aurora, Moon Walking & Luna Love

 

I started with getting two and loved them so much I went back and got two more in different colours. There is only one more colour a dark green which isn't really my thing but I couldn't recommend these any more they last really well and go on easily. They also look great on your nails. They are difficult to get of and you need to leave them to soak in nail polish remover but that's normally what glitter nail polish is like!

 

 

Rimmel - Nail Nurse Nail Base & Top Coat & Precious Stones in Ruby Crush

 

I was in need of a new base coat as my other one had ran out and I refuse to put nail polish one with out a base coat. This one seems to be quite good but I'm not to bothered when it comes to base coats! I got the nail polish for Christmas as it is red and glittery everything I wanted I put it on my nails on the 23rd and by the next again day it had already began to chip! And on Christmas day it was badly chipped in fact half the polish had picked off! Which isn't like Rimmel polishes as there my favourite high street polishes but this was terrible especially since I had a top coat and a base coat on!

 



Maybelline - The Eraser Eye, The Falsies Mascara, Eye Studio Gel Liner & Baby Lips in Cherry Velvet. Collection - Glam Crystals in fcuk

 

I'm just going to talk very briefly about some of these products as I am planning on doing a review on a few of them. But I got the 3 Maybelline products on a 3 for 2 offer and then boots are also currently giving away a free Baby Lips with your Maybelline purchase. I love the gel liner it's even better than my Mac fluidline in blacktrack! Also the mascara is great but I love Maybelline Mascaras! I'm not completely sure about the under eye concealer but when I've fully decided on it I'll let you know as the colour selection isn't great and it doesn't have the best coverage! The glitter liner is really good, I've found that there is not much on the market in terms of glitter gel liners! But this is good considering the price and they also have a good colour selection - I've had the sliver one before which is also good.

 

 

Soap & Glory - Crazy Sexy Kohl

 

I got this in the sale for £9 and it was originally £18. When I first seen this I thought I would be great for my pro kit as there are 5 waterproof full size kohl pencils of different colours. I already own a black one and even though I don't wear black pencil liner much now, I know these pencils are really good. I've not tried there eye shadows yet but I've heard good things about them and they seem to be really nice colours. After swatching the colours I decided it was such a good deal I had to go back and get one for my self which is what I did!

 

 

I hope you enjoyed this haul, I've been on a spending ban which makes it all the better when you finally do treat yourself to new things! I've been a bit slack on blogging recently which I apologise for but I have some amazing posts planned for the next few weeks including New Years Eve Make-up, Yearly Favourites as well as New Year Resolutions! So make sure you follow my blog on bloglovin or gfc for them to pop into your subscription box! You can also for me on twitter or Instagram (links in sidebar) where I post links to new posts!

Did you get any bargains in the sale?
