NEW YEAR EVES LOOK

NEW YEAR EVES LOOK

31 December 2013

This is it! 2013 is now officially coming to an end now, what a better time to do my first ever tutorial on my new years eve look! As always I try to keep everything neutral but this time I wanted to do a smokey eye this time but in my way!

Face: First of all I used my Laura Mercier Foundation Primer in Radiance, after applying that I used my Estée Lauder Invisible fluid in Honey Bronze (4WN1) with an Estée Lauder foundation brush.

After applying my foundation, I then used my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Deep (4) and blended it out with my fingers (You can do it with a brush but I would recommend using your fingers so it blends in properly.

Eyes: I always use the same eyeshadow palette which is my Body Shop Shimmer Cubes. I first use the lightest colour (Marshallow) all over my eyelids, then I used the darkest shade (Dark Chocolate) in the inner corners of my eyes, in the middle I used the browner shade (Choc chip) and finally I used the golden shade (Honeycomb). I blended all three colours one by one using my Body Shop Eyeshadow Brush and the applied Liquid eyeliner from Body Shop (I promise this isn't all body shop!)

After doing my "Brown" smokey eye, I then used my Burberry Eye Definer pencil in Midnight Ash (03) under my eyes to give it an intense look. For my eyelashes, I first used my Shu uemura Curlers and then Mascara which is  Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express.

Eyeshadow colours from top left to bottom right: Honey Comb, Choc Chip, Dark Chocolate and Marshmallow 

Bronzer and Blush: For bronzing I used my bronzer from Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess in the shade Light (01) with my Body Shop Face and Body brush. For blush I used my NARS blusher in Dolce Vita with my Body Shop Blusher brush.

Lips: I used my loved Rogue Pur Couture YSL Nude lipstick in 5

I can't tell you guys how amazing this year has been to me. There were some ups and downs but my biggest achievement this year was starting my blog and it wouldn't be without you guys! So thank you to all the people who have supported me throughout the year with everything and helping me believe in myself.  So here's to new beginnings, new year and bring on 2014!

Lots of love
