Here is my face today, I could of just done a video and it may of took a lot less time and hassle but I’m not quite ready for the editing of a video –I barely know how to take a timed photo. Lots of pictures, not much gabble from myself today. If you would like a video or just more information on the products I’ve used just gimme a buzz. Each product I used today I have linked to the shop where I most likely buy them from. Oh and a massive hello to my new followers, love you all!
Also, I know that my right eye may appear dodgy in some photos, I’m not sure whether it is the lighting or whether my eyes are still a little swollen from whatever reaction I’ve been having recently. It is more apparent when I don’t have eye make up on. Thank goodness for eye liner eh?
Clinique Even Better Foundation (Alabaster) applied with the Real Techniques stippling brush.
Loreal Touche Magique concealer applied to the under eye area and around nose. Benefit Brow-zings (Dark) used for brows.
Clinique Blended Loose Powder applied to shiney bits (Transparent) and Topshop Bronzer (Holidaze) applied al cheeks, forehead, chin and neck – I do not contour and never have, I use a big fat bronzing brush and apply to bits where the sun gets me; true Geordie, bronzing to the max.
Bourjois eyeshadow pot (No. 08) used a base –no primer- Mac Wedge (lighter one of the two) and Carbonized layered into the crease before sweeping Mac Pigment (Naked) over the entire lid.
Boots eye shadow brush for base layer / Mac 239 for patting on pigment / Mac 217 for crease / No. 7. Blend and Contour brush for blending out edges (actually bought from a blog sale)
Mabelline Volum’ Express mascara and Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner on eyes –I never go a day without liquid liner; after trying all types of liner, I will forever stick with Collection 2000 liquid and felt tip liners.
NARS Orgasm Blusher on my cheeks –It has smashed so I couldn’t show you- and Bourjois Illuminating touch along the bridge of nose, cupids bow and under brows –applied with Boots eye shadow brush.
At this point my battery died and there was no way I was waiting 6 hours for it to charge to do two more photos. I used Topshop Coy on my lips with a little balm over the top as it is very drying –I got this balm as a gift for Christmas but I think it is from Accessorize.
Finally, I used Tangle Teezer to brush my hair and straightened out the ends with GHDs from the Scarlet collection – I actually won these from the fabulous Jen over at A Little Bird Told Me; I was chuffed to bits and have already been playing around with different styles and looks so more to come on these bad boys.
So this is my daily routine pretty much every day in terms of make up and hair; nothing special really, but I love seeing what people rely on every day so hopefully you will find this an interesting post –especially my face with no liner on, I look so weird!
