18 Days of Christmas

"Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas" (Imagine I just sung that . I cant sing but who cares ).
So as you guys all know this year for advent I got a No7 calendar. Many of you have wanted to know what's inside it , so i'm going to show you what I've had so far .

The Calendar itself is beautiful with glitter and sparkle going on ; a really girly treat. The gifts inside are what every girl dreams of , fitted with Mascaras , Eyeliners , nail polish , body care etc. What more could you ask for . Each little pocket is accompanied by a little humorous pun or quote that puts you in a great mood .For only £35 this was a Fabulous buy of the season . Id defiantly Recommended it  !

Here's a sneak peak ...

Glitter and gold , winter makeup .

Hello,
1 more week to go ...
I myself am beyond excited for this Christmas , All my family are coming down and we are going to have a day full of fun and food .
Now makeup wise this December its been all about the eyes for me . As long as my eyes are glittery and golden I'm good to go . Lets be honest if you cant where glitter at Christmas when can you wear it ?

This look has been my go to look all of December , I just love it . The bronzed goddess eyes accompanied by a glossy fresh face , Its a winner in my books. All of these products are long wearing and great coverage .

As you can see from this I don't use concealer in this look as I have found that my sleek foundation has worked perfectly onto of the 'Rimmel match perfection ' as a highlighter and concealer  . I've gone back to using my 'Max factor bronzing powder' to contour since this bronzer has a hint of sparkle ad is a gorgeous bronze shade .

The key aspect in this look is the eyes!

So using my Sleek vintage romance palette I  start  applying a dark nude bronze shade 'Promise in Prauge' all over my eyelid blending out at the corners .Then over the top of the lid I use the glitter gold tone 'Court in Cannes' this gold is very pigmented and is a perfect festive tone .In the crease I blend the Purple glitter shade 'Forever in Florence ' From the outer side inwards , to create depth and definition in the eye. I also use the colour and drag it along my water line .

With this look I applied my two favourite mascara combination at the moment , Rimmel 'Lash accelerator' and Soap and glory think and fast mascara .These two work Incredibly together in creating longer and fuller lashes that last all day .

Let me know your winter makeup go to looks .

Hamer gift guide for friends .

Hello, so Christmas is two weeks away ... ahhh..

 

Now we all have those friends that we have no idea what to get , or they go " I don't want anything" so I created 2 little gift packages that will go down a treat .

These little hampers are so easy to customise to what type of person your friend is and can be as expensive or inexpensive as you wish .

 

so lets get into it :

The Pamper Kit:

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the first gift is for a friend who likes to be pampered 24/7. In this package is  :

• Some cute little 12pack of bath bombs.
•  A mud face mask.
• A Cath Kidston shower cap.
• 'Urban' vanilla and raspberry hairspray.
• 'Catseyes' chick makeup/wash bag.

 

This is a perfect gift for any girl if your struggling to find something . All the products are amazing .
