My Christmas Look: Gold & Cranberry

I hope everyone is having happy & safe holidays & enjoyed their christmas with their family :) Sorry with delayed posts (I know I know i always say this) But i wanted to share my christmas day look.... even though it was done in a hurryit was colours i've never used together before but i really like how it turned out!

 Eyes:
The She Space Broken Rules (gold) on lid
120 palette 2nd colour from right on the brown row (light cranberry colour) into crease
120 palette colour on the far right (same row- darker cranberry colour) into outer crease & outer v.
Lighter brown for blending
white pearl as highlight
Lancome Artliner
A tiny bit of a cheap silver eyeliner just above black e/l

Cheeks-
Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls in Beige

Lips-
Nothing! (sorry they look horrible! i was too lazy to even put lipbalm on haha & i was in kind of a hurry)

Thanks for looking!
What festive makeup did you wear for christmas?

Dramtic Smoky Purple with lashes

So it may not be the most dramatic smokey eye, but I wore it to work but didn't go out so i think it was dramatic enough for that! lol. I was mostly inspired by this Kim Kardashian tutorial by pixi2woo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kfPXeol3OM 
The lashes are nothing special, just cheapies from ebay that i cut in half & really liked the look, got told it looked natural so i think i shall be using them more often!! Also i finally got DUO glue, i was using Ardel before & i had a reaction, so hopefully this works out! Otherwise i will be sad :( lol
So sorry, getting to do the reviews! I haven't had much time to come on & write a long blog but i will definitely get around to it after the holidays.
Thanks!! =)
Oh & a shout-out to my gorgeous cousin Amy because a long time ago she requested a purple look but I hadn't liked any purple looks enough to post recently!

Orange Sorbet FOTD & Aussie Drugstore Brands Reviews Part 1

Sorry for the lack of posting, everyone! I know I always say it but I haven't found any time to get on here & post properly.
So the other weekend the bf & I went up to the city for a friends birthday & to do some Christmas shopping. Of course I had to buy some things for myself because where I live there's not much so I have to shop online! I went into gloss cosmetics & had a look around, purchased some of their own brushes which i will include a small review on next post, & found this gorgeous shimmery orange/pink eyeshadow from BYS. I wish i had bought more! Oh well, next time.  Anyway... onto the look..

no flash

Eyes- BYS Shimmer powder in Pink Rose 01 I used Face Of Australia e/s in Jasper in the crease with the darkest brown from the 28 neutral palette in the outer-v, of course NYX white pearl for inner corners, Lancome Artliner in Noir & Covergirl Lash Blast.

Cheeks-Nyx creme blush in Glow under Mode blush in velvet pink, white pearl as highlight, NYX taupe to contour

Lips- Estee Lauder Pure Colour Crystal Lipstick in Crystal Coral

 From Left To Right: By itself, over NYX JEP in milk, over TFSI, over TFSI & Pixie Epoxy (I don't think i let it dry enough so it made the colours darker- especially with the taupe)

The BYS Shimmer powder is so easy to apply & you don't need much at all. The only thing I don't really like is the packaging because it doesn't close fully, leaving a little gap around the edge, although nothing comes out you have to make sure it is on properly or else it will. & nothing is at fault with the FOA e/s, the packaging is quite small & cute & it also applies well.

Please stay tuned for Aussie Drugstore Brands Reviews Part 2 where I will be talking more about Face Of Australia, Australis, Gloss Professional & a few more brands!
