    Magic Dust

    So yesterday me and my friend did a bit of a makeup swap! I gave her a sample of MAC violet piggie and she gave me a sample of Face Stockholm eye dust in magic! It’s a really pretty colour, but I found it creases a lot quicker than MAC, so I’m going to try it over violet pigment today. This was...

    Perfect Love

    A bit brighter than usual

    This is like the brightest I’ve done, and it does look a bit wilder IRL but I’m not going to dwell on it. I would say ignore the brows but there’s no excuse! I didn’t wear it out, it was a bit too shimmery for my liking. I used MAC Parfait Amour e/s MAC Golden Lemon pigment 17 Shocking pink...

    Before and After - sort of smokey look

    So I went clubbing with an old friend last night, it was cool to catch up, but my priorities have changed, and hers haven't so we kind of didn't have as much to talk about as we used to. It was like a total blast from the past, firstly I go out with my friend I haven't seen in a year, then I...
