Flirty Pinks - Makeup Menu #3

I am back with another makeup menu for you and today I am going for a girly, pretty pink theme with my makeup!

For the base as usual it is the Bourjois Happy Light Foundation, I am going for light dewy skin with this look because I feel like that suits pink tones very well! Also for concealer, its the classic Maybelline Fit Me Concealer because it is just the bomb. A natural pink flush on the cheeks would look gorgeous for this look so I opted for the NYX Blush in Mocha and this is a beautiful matte blush so to add some glow to the skin with a pinky, champagne coloured highlight I went for the Benefit High Beam highlighter on the tops off the cheekbones and down the centre of the face.

Moving on, onto the eyes, I am going for the MUA Undressed Pallet because this does have a few beautiful shadows in there with slight pink undertones so I thought this would be perfect! You could really play around with the shades and create your own flirty look! You can use any mascara you want and you can go for wispy false lashes too because that would look beautiful with this look, the mascara that I picked out is the L'Oreal Telescopic False Lash Mascara.

Either a nude or a light pink lip would go amazingly with the whole look but I of course went with a light, bright pink glossy lip and that is the Tanya Burr Lipgloss in First Date. I love the formula of these glosses and I have a review on them I did ages ago but I will link it here.

I also added a little pink nail polish that is absolutely gorgeous and it is the Barry M Nail Paint in Strawberry Ice Cream, this is a beautiful light pink shade and it will compliment the makeup really well too!

So that is how to achieve a flirty, girly, pink makeup look!

Makeup Menu #2 - Spring

So it's now officially spring and I couldn't let spring pass without doing a makeup menu! Tell me if you like these posts so I can do them more frequently! 

I've only got eyes, lips and cheeks in this post because the base is just the same as usual! Light, fresh and dewy.

For the eyes my pick is the MUA Undressed Eyeshadow Pallete. This pallete has a lot of versitile colous from pinks to golds to blues so personally i think its a great all rounder, it also has a good matte brown in it which is very well loved! For this look i would either go for the pink or gold tones.

For this specific look i would skip eyeliner and go straight onto mascara, of course my current mascara pick would be my favourite mascara duo, i did a whole post on this here. Its the Loreal So Cotour Volume Million Lashes and the Loreal Clean Definition Mascara.

All of the shades in the Sleek Blush By 3 Pallete in Lace would be amazing for spring because they are all coraly pink shades that would look amazing all spring!

I've got two lip options here because I think they are both so suitable for spring and would look amazing! Its the Tanya Burr Lipgloss in Picnick in the Park and the Maybelline Baby Lips Electro in Strike a Rose. These are both really nice coral pink shades and you could wear them together or alone!

So there is my spring makeup menu!

Makeup Menu #1 - Natural

I thought I would start this new 'series' of posts called Makeup Menu. Each time I will pick a look and show you all the products I use to create that look, todays look is Natural. 

For the base I have chosen the Body Shop All-In-One BB Cream because I feel like this covers most of the imperfections you may have on your face but it looks super natural on the skin and it leaves a satin finish. I wanted a concealer that is really light but highlighting as well and the Soap&Glory Kick Ass Concealer came to mind straight away because it ticks all them boxes, I use the pinky shade under my eyes and it gives me a beautiful finish and you can't tell that its there!

Bronzer is a must for me because I just love the way it looks on my skin and the one that I absolutely love and rave about all the time is the Body Shop Honey Bronzer, I love this bronzer because it gives the most natural bronze you will ever see and I reach for it every day and it is my holy grail! For blush I would use the NYX Blush in Mocha, it isn't a mocha colour at all (weird) its actually a really nice muted pink shade (the picture gets the colour of it completely wrong) and it goes with every single look you will ever do and it is super natural on the skin! I love me some highlighter whatever look I am creating so my current favourite is the Topshop Glow Highlighter in Gleam, this is absolutely gorgeous on the skin and gives a beautiful natural highlight and that is what we are going for!  

 

Now onto the eyes and lips and for the natural days I would only use one eye shadow and that would be the Mac Eye Shadow in Woodwinked. This eye shadow is super beautiful and it looks so natural on lid, it gives a hint of a bronzy sheen and when you blend it out well it turns into a sort of burnt orange colour and it looks like you applied a crease colour too so its so easy!

For eyeliner I would just apply a very thin line across the lash line for some definition and no fancy wing, the eyeliner I have been trying out recently is the Rimmel Glam Eyes Eyeliner, I haven't fully developed my opinion on this eyeliner yet so I will get back to you, but so far its been alright.

Even on natural days I like big lashes and the Mascara that I have been using lately is the Benefit They're Real Mascara, I have the mini size and I do really like this mascara, it's not my holy grail and I am still on the hunt for a mascara that will wow me and when I find it, trust me, I will have a huge review up about it!

Lastly, for the lips my pick is the Mac Lipstick in Peach Blossom, to me this is a light pinky nude and looks amazing on them natural days because it just adds a little something to lips and I love it!

Please let me know if you like this new series of mine and if you would like me to carry on with it!

New post every Sunday!
