Dramatic Cut Crease Makeup Tutorial



It is so enjoyable being able to sit down at my makeup desk and just let creativity take over. That's exactly what happened when I created this. I knew I wanted to do something fun, something bold. I think I achieved that.



What's better than neon green combined with a rich purple?


 
Products:
  • MAC Painterly Paintpot
  • NYX White Eyeshadow Base
  • Sleek Acid Palette
  • MAC Beautiful Iris
  • MAC Stars'N'Rockets
  • Sugarpill Poison Plum
  • Sugarpill Bulletproof
  • MAC Zestful (Extra Dimension Eyeshadow)
  • Maybelline Hyper Glossy Liquid Eyeliner
  • Bourjois Liner Effect Mascara
  • Inglot 77 Gel Liner


I even filmed a tutorial for this look! I know my video's aren't great, especially because my eye always seems to be at the bottom of the frame, but I am working on it! I'll be using a new tripod very soon in my hopes to eliminate that problem!

                                     


Thanks for all your support, and for watching my tutorials. It means so much to me.

Let me know what you think :)

Femme Fatale Twilight Meteorite


I recently gave in to temptation and bought some Femme Fatale nail polishes after seeing gorgeous pics plastered on my facebook wall. Let me just say, I do not regret regret this purchase! 

Twilight Meteorite is described as "a rich plum pink base with bold blue>pink duochrome flecks".

This description is pretty on the money!

Just look at the photo's!







Gorgeous huh?

To exaggerate the duochrome finish, I applied a black gradient as a base underneath, so it fades out to nothing at the tip where you can see Twilight Meteorite on its own. 

I am absolutely in love with this polish and keep catching myself looking at how gorgeous it is. It applied with ease, not too thick nor too thin, not streaky and dried quite fast. I applied two coats to make it fully opaque.

I also love that Femme Fatale are Aussie! 


Here are some other polishes I also picked up, they are sooo pretty!


I will post more pics/reviews when I use the others!

Have any of you tried out Femme Fatale polishes or cosmetics? Let me know what you think!

Thanks for reading!
