The NEW Makeup Revolution: Fortune Favours The Brave SWATCHES

Uncategorized

img_1053-3

Good evening beauties!

I managed to get my hands on the NEW Makeup Revolution Palette,

“Fortune Favours The Brave”

And it is unbelievable.

No wonder it has been sold out almost everywhere!

I went to my local Superdrug determined to find one of these beauties and luckily I did! There was only 3 palettes so I grabbed one as fast as I could and handed over the money…

I was in and out of the store in 5 minutes.

Mission complete.

Firstly, take a look at this packaging.

Opulent, Sophisticated and GOLDEN.

Ive always been a fan of Makeup Revolutions simplicity with their packaging. Its very classic and elegant whilst looking very high end and chic.

The palette was created in collaboration with The British Beauty Blogger, who wanted to create a product that is suitable for all age ranges and price budgets. If you havnt checked out the blog before, Check it out HERE.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

Thirty glorious shades.

Ranging from mattes to shimmers, they are all so unique and beautiful.

Something for everyone.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

If you take a closer look at the brush, you’ll notice its not one of the sponge applicators but a double ended brush. One side is a simple flat brush, the other a fluffy blending brush.

I dont think I have ever seen a palette so incredibly stunning.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

So the first lot of swatches are taken in natural light and with one sweep of the finger. These are the swatches from the top row of the palette. As you can see, they are so highly pigmented and the colour pay of is phenomenal. In this light they ALL look very matte but just wait until you step into some light.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

The second row of swatches appear to be a more warmer toned and as always, highly pigmented. Take a look at that rich black shade! This image is still taken in natural light.

Bam! Look at those colours shine! These images are now taken in direct sunlight. They are super rich and glossy. One of my favourite shades is the pink shade on the right called “Pink Diamond” and it shines like a diamond too! I love the deep rich gold colour on the left called “Super Gold”, its so stunning, imagine how lovely this will look in Summer.

SAM_1035

Back to the top row, The shades are a but more cool toned, but that doesnt mean their not as glittery! Check out the stunning white shade called “Ice Cloud“, it would look great as an inner corner highlight. The third shade from the left is a real peach shade called “Peachy” funnily enough. This would look great as an everyday shade and in the crease.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

It has to be said that I am completely in love with this palette and I cannot wait to create some beautiful looks for you guys.

As for the price, its only £9.99 which is so good for the quality and range in this palette. Plus, im not going to lie, doesnt it photograph well?

Rose Gold Spring Tutorial

Uncategorized

img_1053-3

Hi Guys!

I am so ready for Spring. 

Whose with me?

I have been loving anything ROSE GOLD lately and jumped at the chance to create a make-up look for you guys. I think this colour combination is perfect for Spring, its so girly and pretty and looks ideal for any occasion.

For this look, I will be using my favourite palette by Makeup Revolution which includes 144 shades of HEAVEN!

If you guys have yet to get this little gem, then you can find HERE.

 SAM_0953

Here is the easy peasy video tutorial for you lovelies so you can learn step by step how to get this Rose Gold look.

Lets get Started….

And a photo montage because I love you guys….

SAM_0930

So to start, I used a shimmery pink champagne colour all across my lid using my finger to apply and pack on the colour. I find that applying my base with a brush doesn’t give the same effect as using my fingers, its more pigmented and the colour appears more rich.

SAM_0931

Next up I used a metallic soft pink shade in my crease and outer V, I used a fluffy brush to blend everything together and to create a seamless finish.

SAM_0935

Using the same fluffy brush, I applied this beautiful rich gold colour to the centre of my lid and blended it out towards the outer corner of my lid. I love this shade as it adds a lovely bit of warmth to the look.

SAM_0936

I then took a deeper darker pink shade and applied it over the colours in my crease and outer corner, this enhances and creates a depth to the look and a lovely smokey eye finish.

SAM_0937

Using a small flat brush, I took that same shade along my bottom lash line to increase that depth and add some shadow.

SAM_0939

As you can see, the colours blend perfectly together.

SAM_0941

By adding a highlight colour in the inner corner, it makes the eye appear brighter and wider and more awake. I used a shimmery cream shade.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

Ofcourse I had to do a winged eyeliner. This look is super girly and feminine so enhancing those eyelashes is a MUST.

SAM_0943.JPG

Add a fave pair of lashes. Mine are by EyeCandy and are so beautiful, they are very flirty and have just enough length on the outer corner so it doesnt appear heavy.

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

Up next is mascara… a must. I use Maybellines Sensational mascara to create some drama compared with my subtle eyeshadow. This has to be one of the best mascaras I have ever had and I highly recommend this one!

SAM_0949.JPG

Noticed how my false lashes and real ones blend together effortlessly?

I LOVE IT!

SAM_0955.JPG

SAM_0956

I added a super pretty pinky nude lipstick to my lips. Its by Ted Baker and I literally wear to every day. I thought it complimented the eyeshadow colours perfectly. The formula is really creamy and doesn’t dry out my lips at all.

SAM_0957

I am in love with the finished result and cannot wait to wear it this Spring.

SAM_0952

Have you guys created a look for this Spring?

REVIEW: Makeup Revolution – Pink fizz + TUTORIAL

Uncategorized

IMG_1053
Good evening guys!

I can’t believe it’s December tomorrow… And you know what that means…. Advent calenders and chocolate! Yum….

Ive also got myself a Makeup revolution beauty calander… Excited is an understatement…

So to get me in the mood, I decided to review my NEW festive pink fizz palette!

  
Isn’t it a beauty?

So this is one of their chocolate palettes and it is actually strawberry scented – heaven.

The colours are so beautiful, from blues to pinks, it is perfection!

The palette is only £7.99 from Superdrug and it comes in 3 other colour creations.. Ps… I have the milk chocolate one already!
Ready for my Pink Fizz tutorial?!….

Let’s get started..

  

Begin with a primer, it’s makes your eyeshadow POP and stops the eyeshadow from creasing. I love the Too Faced shadow insurance… It works perfectly.

   
  
  
Place a strip of tape from the corner of the eye diagonally towards the eyebrow. This is going to create a define line and a crisp edge. I used this shimmery white shadow called bubbles all across my lid as base and in the inner corner as a highlight.

  
  
I took this  pretty glittery pink shade and applied that to my crease with a fluffy brush….

  

To add some drama I added this bold brown shade called Cork  to my lash line to contrast with the pink shade. 
  
  
Using a black liquid liner, I lined my lash line to add definition and applied my fave mascara…

Want to see the finished look?

It’s super subtle and very pretty… Ideal for the upcoming festive season.

 
  

  

Dressed up or dressed down, this look will suit everyone.

I would love to know what you dolls think so let me know in the comments!

And I can highly recommend any of the Makeup Revolution products, super affordable and great quality.

Don’t forget to keep up to date with me below my beauties!

Makeup Revolution Ionic 2 Palette + colour swatches!

Uncategorized

Good afternoon beauty-ful people,

I have been loving Makeup Revolution lately.
I honestly cannot believe how amazing this brand is and for such amazing prices.

Their variety of colours, products and styles is unbelievable and my collection is slowly growing!

The other day I came across their ‘ionic 2‘ palette and I just fell in love.
This spring I am all about shimmer.

A shimmery eyeshadow can turn your everyday look into something instantly glamorous and this Spring is going to be full of it!

The colours are so pigmented ( as I mentioned in one of my other reviews) and last all day without primer. If I had to compare this palette with the naked 3, I would say that it is a pretty tough competition!

The added bonus of this gorgeous palette is that it is….

£4.

Yes. You heard me.

AMAZING!

Take a look at these beautiful swatches:

I cannot wait to post some makeup looks using this pretty palette!

Stay tuned later, girlies for my ‘Step into Spring pastel eyes’ .
