DIY: Eyeshadow Primer! ♥

Hey beauties!
So today I'm going to be showing you all how to make your own eyeshadow primer!
For those who are uncertain, a primer is a liquid you put all over your eyes to keep your eyeshadow on for longer and make it look bolder!

Before I start, I want to show you the importance of Eyeshadow Primer!

On the left is a black eyeshadow on its own. As you can see it is very sheer and would not last long!

On the right is the same black eyeshadow with the homemade primer under it! The difference is crazy! The primer makes it so much bolder!

Making the primer is so easy!

You will need the following;

Moisturiser

Foundation

Concealer

A small pot/container

A couple of cotton buds or something to stir with!



Step 1: The first thing you want to do is squeeze some of your moisturiser into your container!

You don't want to much or it will be far too runny! 

Step 2: Next you want to pump around the same amount of foundation as moisturiser into your pot!

The idea is to get all of the ingredients even! 

Step 3: Now you want to add the same amount of concealer to the rest of the mixture!

Lol, mine looks like poooo!;)

 

Step 4: MIX!!

And there you have it! Simple, right? Although it may not make your shadow last as long as the high end primers, it certainly is an amazing alternative for those who simply can't spend £20-£30 on a primer! (me;)

Thank you all so much for reading and supporting this blog!

Maybelline Baby Lips Review! ♥

Hey everyone! So today I'm going to be reviewing the Maybelline Baby Lips! Finally, after many different trips I managed to find them in a local boots! They were very cheekily hidden on the bottom row and if it wasn't for my mum pointing them out I would have totally missed them!

They were 3 for 2 so I picked up 3 for £5.98 instead of £8.97!

I got Hydrate, Peach Kiss, and Pink Punch!

Hydrate!

Hydrate is part of the spf family instead of the tints!

It does what it says and really hydrates the lips!

It smells a quite lemony, like lemon biscuits;)

It doesn't have any colour, so if you were looking for something more bold, this isn't for you!

Peach Kiss!

Peach Kiss is a part of the tint family, however it doesn't give a huge tint, but it adds a tad of sparkle to your lips!

It smells a lot like purple skittles and just really fruity and yummy!

If you were looking for something neutral, you will probably like this!



Pink Punch!

Pink punch is probably my favourite out of all 3.

Although this pic doesn't do it enough justice, it gives the most beautiful pink tint to your lips!

It smells exactly like Fanta Twist!

If I could recommend one to you all, it would be this one!

 

 For just £2.99 you get a lot of product!

I definitely think they live up to their hype!

The only down side is the taste barely lasts!

I recommend you ALL pick up Pink Punch! It's personally my favourite! :)

I hope you all enjoyed reading this just as much as I enjoyed writing it! I also hope you found this useful if you have not already discovered Baby Lips!

My Every Day Make-Up Routine! ♥

Hey everyone! So I'm going to be showing you my every day make up look! It's pretty simple, but it's just what I've been loving to do recently!

Step 1: So the first thing I do is moisturise my face with my Johnsons Holiday Skin Facial Moisturiser! This gradually builds a light tan to your face and really hydrates the skin!

Step 2: The next thing I ALWAYS do is put some lip balm on! This just prevents foundation getting on your lips and prepares them for lipstick!

Step 3: For the actual makeup I start by mixing my Rimmel Match Perfection foundation with my Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid foundation! I have to do this because one is too light and one is too dark!

I then blend this all over my face with my fingers as I feel it gives me the best control!

Step 4: Next I use the Garnier Roll On Concealer under my eyes and blend it in using my ring finger, as it has the softest touch.

Step 5: I then set everything with my Rimmel Stay Matte Powder using my Sarah Ashton Powder Brush!

Step 6: I don't do this every day, but when I feel like it I fill in my brows using a brown eyeshadow and my Real Techniques Accent Brush!

 Step 7: Now on to eyes! I start out by priming my eyes with my home made primer! I then take my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette and apply either Foxy or Bootycall to the lid. Simple!









Step 8: To finish off the eyes I use the L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Excess Mascara on my top and bottom lashes!







Step 9: Next I add a pop of colour to my cheeks by sweeping a touch of the Borjous Blush in 'Cendre De Rose Brune' across my cheek bones and on the apples of my cheeks by using my Models Own Powder Brush!









Step 10: Finally, I add some colour to my lips! My lip products change ALL the time! But recently I have been obsessed with MAC's Raspberry Swirl from the baking beauties collection!





So there you have it! I do my makup in an extremely strange order, its pretty simple and neutral but I love it! Thank you all so much for reading!

Hair Routine! Wet To Dry! ♥

Hi everyone! So I'm doing my hair routine from wet to dry! This is just what I do after washing my hair!

Step 1: The first thing I do is wash my hair with the Inecto Pure Coconut Shampoo! I like to use this because I love the smell, hehe!

Step 2: Next, I condition with the Inecto Pure Coconut Conditioner! As my hair is fairly dry I like to use a generous amount of this! (I leave it on for 5-10 minutes)

Step 3: After lightly towel drying my hair, I then use The Body Shops 'Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter'. This is specificly for dry hair so works well for me! I simply rub a medium sized amount into my wet hair focusing on the ends!

Step 4: If I have decided to blow dry my hair I will then add some of the John Frieda 'Frizz Ease Flawless Finishing Crème'. I use this to mute the frizz the hair dryer will have created!

If I have left my hair to air dry I will skip this step altogether!








*For some ridiculous reason I could not make this photo smaller*

Step 5: After Straightening my hair I will finish off by smoothing my hair with some hair styling wax or the 'Percy Reed No Oil Oil'








Honestly I haven't the slightest clue how to care for my hair but this just seems to work!Thank you all so much for reading, I hope you enjoyed this and found it useful!
