Make Up Collective Haul.

Today I went out shopping for some quick affordable make up pieces to create amazing looks on a budget. In total, I bought over ten items and I will list them below:

- Three L.A. Colors trios: $2.99 each.

I bought three eye shadow trios by L.A. colors for a quick make up fix. The The colours which came along in each trio pack include White Ice/Baby Pink/Tidal Wave (This trio is made up of pastel/dusty shades which are perfect for more subtle make up styles such as pale eyes), Blondie/Citrus Lime/Blue Satin (This trio is perfect for tropical and exotic looks- very glam for the summer season!) and finally; Copper Glaze/Gold Digger/Royal Violet (These tones look great for anyone who has olive to dark skin making the look very sexy and colorful). These are very pigmented making them perfect as a gloss over for the eyes as they are quite powdery and smooth for application.

- Eleven NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils: $3.99 each.I always debate in my head whether I choose to splurge on M.A.C shadesticks or NYX eye pencils. Because I was on a tight budget, it only seemed natural that I choose the NYX pencils- one of each color starting from Strawberry Milk, Horse Radish, French Fries etc. for that instant glammed up look. NYX products are really good quality for their prices. NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils are very smooth and take some time to warm up in order to color the eye lid however for the small price, it is totally worth it. The metallic sheen is subtle and adds a freshness to any look.

- One Pack of Four Diva Lip glosses: $7.95 pack

I like the packaging more than the actual product however it does make a cute gift idea. The lipglosses are packed in groups of four and include Lip Shimmers, Lip Plump treatment and Lip Moisturiser so its perfect for any girl on the go. They are smooth and not sticky and the sheen just pops out bursts of colour and smell absolutely delicious like strawberry and coconut and grape. Very tropical scents and colours and for the price, they are way gorgeous.

Anyways, that is all for now. I'll do a HOW-TO post very soon.

How To: The basic red lips.

How To Get the Perfect RED LIPS:

Products needed:

- Soft children's Toothbrush

- Lancome Lipstick in Rouge Rayonnant #47

- Jadore lip liner and gloss pen #33

- Vaseline Petroleum jelly

- Lancome lipgloss #304

Directions:

1. Using the soft toothbrush, brush over lips gently to remove dry skin and exfoliate the lips to reduce dryness.

2. Apply a thin layer of Vaseline onto your lips in order to soften the skin.

3. Pencil the lip liner around your lips, alternate between large outlines and thinner ones according to your lip shape in order to make lips look larger or smaller.

4. Using a lip brush, put on the lipstick making sure to fill in all gaps in the lip area between the liner.

5. Place a thin layer of lipgloss in the same shade on top of the lipstick to create a glossy illusion.

6. Pout and enjoy!xoxo B.

Introduction...

Hi everyone!

I'm Bianca and I'm ten years old. I decided to make a beauty blog because I love all types of make up and enjoy the girly things in life. My favourite looks usually feature a lot of gold elements, blues and greens, and the runway loved smokey look. My favourite products include; MAC, Nutrimetics, NYX, Prestige, Lancome, Estee Lauder and L'Oreal. My beauty secret is to always remove make up using natural baby oil so my skin is still soft and not dry. The purpose of my blog is to inform you on Runway make up trends, celebrity looks and just basically anything which involves make up and colours and experimentation with new products and trends. It will be updated daily with a variety of images and how to's. I hope you all enjoy and subscribe!
