MERMAID TEARS | LOOK 7

I love this look and I'm definitely gonna be rocking this at the festivals I'm going to! I think its one of the prettiest looks I've done, the tears are deffo my fave! I wanted to go for something a bit different with this look and try something out that I've never done before! So I used a fine glitter for the whole look and a holographicy eye shadow that is amazing especially when its used wet! Keeping with my basic makeup routine, same eyebrows, same base I just used more bronzer because I'm totally loving my Hoola Benefit bronzer at the moment! I went with a blue, bronzey, gold eye look, using a gold pigment for the inner corners of my eyes and then a yellow glitter on top, I went for a pretty sky blue for the outer corners of my eyes followed by a darker deep blue and I really love how it turned out! I feel like it really brings out the blue in my eyes and I've stuck with my trusty falsies Eyelure 141's, my fave lashes! Had to do my festi space buns, I feel like this look would be perfect with blue glitter roots, I'm definitely going to be doing a post on that soon! Let me know what sort of posts you'd like to see or like to see more of! I love doing these festi looks and I've got so many looks lined up so keep an eye put for them! I can't wait to get to my first festival so I can actually wear these looks out!!

MY CURRENT FAVES

I feel like I haven't posted a current faves in ages, this is definitely overdue! I've always wanted an electric facial brush but have never known which brand to go for, I came across this one in an Avon book and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was only £16 which is a lot cheaper than some of the ones I've seen online! I never buy anything from Avon so was interested to see how this would work out, its battery powered which I was slightly worried about as I wanted to be able to use it in the shower but it is splash proof so I use it as soon as I'm in the shower facing away from the water and it works wonders! The brush comes with two heads, exfoliating and just a general cleansing one and they both feel really nice on my skin, I use the cleansing head every night and then the exfoliating head once a week just so that my skin doesn't dry out! I deffo recommend it to anybody that's wanting one of these but doesn't want to pay the hefty price tag, I just use my Loreal fine flowers wash with it. 
These eye brushes are so pretty! They're by Makeup Revolution and they come as a set of four eyeshadow brushes, the gold handles are super lush and make them look so much more expensive than they actually are! I think I paid £12 for them which is great considering they're really good quality! They're great if you're going travelling too as they're quite compact! 
I've mentioned this product in a previous post but I just love it! The Body Shop 'Sparkler' which is a little mist bottle filled with GLITTER, its so pretty and looks great sprayed on your face and body! It comes out very fine and glitters when you move which is so great for nights out, will definitely be using it at a festival to cover my whole body!

TOPSHOP JEWELLERY/BEAUTY HAUL

I love freedom jewellery, there's always super pretty pieces and they're so different and unique. I found these pieces and really loved the choker set! It comes with a black shorter choker and a gorgeous gold long choker-style necklace, it looks really great with a buttoned down shirt. I've been pairing it with other gold dainty chokers to create a layered look. 
I love wearing earrings and these were too cute to pass up. They come with 4 sets of dainty earrings that look so nice on. My favourite are definitely the crystal/stone style pair (second from top). 
 I am so excited about trying this Topshop eyeshadow! This glittery eyeshadow called U-turn is so unbelievably pretty and would deffo be great as a highlighter as well if you want that shimmery, glittery look! Perfect for festivals!

LOREAL EYE PAINTS | REVIEW

How pretty are these colours? I couldn't not pick these new Loreal Paris Infallible eye paints up, I got them in the shades 104, 201 and 301 and I definitely think I'm going to pick up the other colours! They're super creamy and are so highly pigmented. You could wear them just on their own and they speak for themselves, such a look! But you can also blend them out to create a more muted look. You can also use them as an eyeliner, with a fine angled brush. I'm definitely going to be trying more looks with these! Let me know what colours you would try.

MY FAVE 'MUA' EYESHADOW PALETTE

MUA is my fave affordable brand for eyeshadow, they're so pretty but also so pigmented which is amazing for how much they cost! My favourite palette is 'poptastic', twelve bright shades that are perfect for making an impression with your eye makeup, I LOVE the dark pink/reddish shade called 'Cherry Sour' (obviously pink is my fave colour) but its also so pretty to use for a gloss lid as well! The names are also so cute, I love it when eye shadows have cool names it really adds to the palette.  These are perfect for festivals, bright and eye-catching, I'll definitely be using these for many festi looks!
