Hotter Than Glammed featuring Very Large Photos!

Hey everyone!

I thought I'd show you what happens when I'm actually going out, rather than playing dress-up in front of the camera.

Kayleigh 13 and I were off to Hotter Than Glammed at Nambucca to see our darling friend Flash and the new line up of King Lizard, and she kindly let me do her make up. I loved my own Sugarpill look, but I think her eyes looked stunning! Here are some of the pics from the night, some of them are really big but they show a lot of detail in the makeup:

Brushing away the fallen glitter (Collection 2000 Glam Glitter, Celebrity and VIP, and Too Faced Kitty Glitter in Cat Fight)

Lining my lower lashline with Midori by SugarPill. On the lids a gradient of Afterparty, Poison Plum, Dollipop and Tako, topped with Collection 2000 Dazzle Me! in Stonewash and Magical

My finished look, before getting changed and styling my hair. OCC Lip Tar in Anime on the lips. Sleek Acid green, yellow and orange colours on the lower lashline and inner corners, and my usual mascara duo.

With closed eyes. Not a great shot because I was scrunching my eyelids a bit.

The finishing toughes for my tropical butterfly Penelope Garcia look.

Kayleigh, with just the eyes done.

My beautiful Purple Glitter creation.

Kay before anything other than eye make up
... and a duck face

"What on earth is 'Epic Nyan Cat?!?'"

And Finally, a shot of Flash being epic. Awesome gig.

Hope you enjoyed seeing some high-quality photos that put my webcam to shame!

I'll try and get more volunteers for make up looks.

TTFN!

How To Be Emo

Hi guys!

I thought I'd put together a tutorial on the emo look. I've split it into two videos, one for hair and one for make up, they're about 10 mins each and I had to edit the crap out of them to get them down to that time!

They're up on my channel but if you want to watch them here:

Here are some photos of the finished look.

Eye Love Messing About + Two Must Have Mascaras!

I was messing about with my MUA eyeshadows and came up with an awesome party look. Only for the extravagant! I love that these cosmetics only cost £1 each, but I think they might have parabens in them.

I made this look by starting with a wash of Shade 4 pearl eyeshadow, a pale lilac that goes on really sheer,  over my e.l.f eyelid primer (I've only had it a few weeks and the writing's completely disappeared from the packaging). Then I took a pot of MUA's loose eyeshadow (is it a pigment? It just says "tester") in Shade 2 and covered my lid. I used Shade 9 pearl shadow in the crease and outer v, a beautiful bright purple, and Shade 13 pearl shadow, a ver dark plummy shade, to darken up the crease and corners and to line my eyes.

I went over my lashline with Bourjois Clubbing Liner in Ultra Black, and then used Collection 2000's Glam Crystals dazzling gel liner in 11 Shake It Up! to line just above the black line, and add 3 wings facing upward and 2 facing downwards at the corners of my eye, like a starburst, or simulated false lashes.

I ran some e.l.f. Treat & Tame in Ash through my brows, and then I put my mascara on. This bit is magic. I doubled up my mascaras, using Too Faced Lash Injection to thicken my lash line and lengthen my lashes, and stuck a coat of Eyeko Big Eyes Mascara over the top, to thicken my actual lashes and add more length. The Eyeko brush is perfect for the job because the bristles are so wide that it doesn't interfere with the good stuff that Lash Injection had done, the way a bushier brush would have.

I did this yesterday with just a nude eye and a black liner, and when my fiance got back from work I was laying with my head in his lap and he asked me why I was wearing false lashes if I wasn't leaving the house. He couldn't believe it was just my mascara!

What do you think? I'm definitely not wearing any falsies!

I hope this post has inspired some of you to get experimental.

Don't forget about my London Lips giveaway!

To be in with a chance of winning (I was going to put a hashtag in there as a Charlie Sheen reference, but my mac keyboard doesn't seem to have one!) an Eyeko London Lips gloss in Soho just subscribe to my blog, and comment saying "Enter me!" or words to that effect.

Here is my swatch of London Lips Soho... I swatched it on my lips... lol.

I think it gives such a beautiful pink glossy finish, great with some rosy cheeks too!

It smells amazing, the texture isn't too gloopy or too sticky either.

If you blot it, you get a much sheerer colour.

Good Luck! If you don't win, don't worry. I'll be doing a lot of these!

TTFN
