Everyday Makeup

Hey! So I thought it would be a good idea to show what the makeup in my May favourites actually looked like on my face! Like I said in that post these are products that I used either daily or so often it was actually a bit crazy.

So first off is a close up of the eye look!

So here is an up close (and kinda scary) picture of my eye look! I am not super confident with liner so that's why I haven't winged it out or something like that. The mascara that I am currently using is the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara and I'm really enjoying that! This is a really simple look and something that takes no time at all to do! I was running late the other day and my full face took me 10 mins! (and I still made it on time to class!)

So here is both eyes done. All that is going on here is the Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94 with Shiro Cosmetics pigment in Extermination (from the Fullmetal Alchemist Collection) over top. To blend the shadow a little I used a brush that had a bit of Naked from the Urban Decay palette. This just finished of the look and blended everything out nicely. Again its super simple! Just place the pigment all of the lid, add eyeliner and mascara and bam! You're done!

Here is a full face shot, in this photo you can't really see the shadow but that is okay, you can see the over all appearance of the look and that is more what I was trying to achieve in this photo!

Last photo is me trying to look down and get a good shot of the eye look with the rest of my face! I feel that this looks like I have put in a bit more effort than I actually have and I really love it! This is simple and easy to change up. All you would have to do is change the shadow/ pigment and it gives a completely different feel while still being super simple!

First Makeup Look!

So, while sitting in my room I decided to mess around with some of the shadows that I have, I am not normally someone that just plays around but I was just in the mood to have some fun!

In this look I only have eye shadow and brows on as it was late at night and just before going to bed so please don't judge my skin to harshly! All of the shadows I used were pigments that I bought off of the internet by some brands that I really enjoy! If you're in the market for some new pigments I def suggest giving these brands a look!

This is what I was working with before I put on mascara or anything else, all of the shadows here contain blue somewhere. It is kind of hard to see in this photo but there are three different colours used. The inner corner highlight, the main colour and then a darker colour in the outer corner. These are all colours that I have used of varying regularity due to their colour.

Here is a better look at all the different colours on my eyes. It is easier to see in this photo the darker blue in the outer corner. This is a colour that I wear most likely the most regularly. Sadly this photo does not give this pigment the justice it deserves as it is a super pigmented and sparkly colour. It is one of my favourite colours! As you can see I am now wearing mascara and a little bit of eyeliner just to mildly finish the look. I was going to do more but was actually asked to go out with a friend so had to quickly finish and make myself presentable haha.

This is what it looked like on both eyes! Again I am only wearing the eye shadow and have product in my brows so please don't mind my super shinny skin! I love how this turned out so much! This went a lot better then I was expecting and I will def be wearing this out and about properly in the future!

This is a super easy look to achieve. I only used three colours and they were Moon Prism Power (inner corner) and Aurora Borealis (outer conrer) and both of these are made by Shiro Cosmetics and the main colour in the middle is Sailor Saturn (Hotaru) by Victorian Disco Cosmetics.

Both of these brands listed are located in America and ship internationally! I love these shades so much and if you think you would like to try them I suggest you do! Both Shiro Cosmetics and Victorian Disco cosmetics can be purchased through the Shiro Cosmetics website.

Well, this is the end of this post! I hope you liked this look and let me know if you do something similar or something you think I should change!

May Favourites

Another month done and dusted, so that means its time for all the monthly favourite posts to pop up in the beauty community. I didn't have to many favourites this month but there were a few products that def received a lot of love this month!

These are my favourites for the month! Not a huge amount of variety but these truly have been some staple items used throughout the month. The items from top to bottom and Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, M.A.C. Mineralized Foundation, Korress Anti-Ageing Primer, Shiro Cosmetics eye shadow pigments in Master Sword, Extermination and finally Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94.

First off the Anastasia Brow Wiz is a product that I have already raved about in this review. The reason I love this product is because it is so easy to use. It's also super easy to fix a mistake if you stuff up, which is a huge bonus as someone who is still developing a brow game. This is the shade Taupe and I find that  this matches my brows well, it is most prob a little dark but with the rest of my face done it doesn't look out of place at all! I honestly use this every time I put makeup on!

Next up is a product that I had gotten in the month of May, I was looking for a new foundation as I was a little sick of the ones I was using, a friend where loves M.A.C. and said I should try a foundation. I have always been interested and so far things have been good! This is my first time trying a powder foundation and I am super impressed! I will def be looking into more in the future and am glad that this is a part of my collection! I have only been wearing this since I got it!

Next up is the Korress Anti-ageing primer, which I have just recently written ta-da. I am finding that this has been really helping my makeup last throughout the day and I am so happy! This was a Sephora 100 point perk so that is why it is small, but don't worry this sample has been lasting me sooooo long!!

Next are the pigments by Shiro Cosmetics, I don't think I have talked about these before, but I honestly love these shadows, they are such beautiful colours. I have usually been putting these over the Inglot Eyeliner Gel in #94. by doing this it helps makes the pigments more noticeable and stronger as they can be a bit sheer. I have been wearing this for an everyday look and I feel it looks great and is super simple. Which means if I'm running late this saves me time and still looks like I'm pretty well put together!


So this is my monthly favourites for the month of May! I has so much fun last month doing so many things and having a great time!

Korres Anti-ageing Primer - Review

So while away in Japan, I haven't really had access to some of the products that I would normally use, or would like to be able to buy; so, at the same time that I bought the Tangle Teezer, I also used some of my Sephora points and got the Korres Anti-ageing Primer, which was a 100 point perk.

I was really excited when this came as I had already bought a cheap primer that had broken me out and the other one I bought with me was running out. Once I saw this as a perk I knew I had to get it, I was a bit worried though about it breaking me out though. So glad to say that it doesn't!!

On the back it has description of: Instantly smoothes wrinkles and provides an even skin surface, ensuring long-lasting make-up application.

I didn't even really look at the back honestly, I was just more excited for the fact that I was trying a new primer haha. This product has a really nice consistency, its not thick and it isn't watery which I'm really thankful for. I am also enjoying this because it's hot in Japan at the moment so having a thinner primer is refreshing because it means I'm not pilling lots of make-up on my face. This product is an off white, but it doesn't affect your skin colour at all so don't be worried about that!

The smell of this is a little interesting but after applying you can't smell it anymore so it's not a problem. Another bonus is that you don't need a lot of product, so this little sample has actually been lasting me for a fair while and I will def be sad when it finally runs out. This product def helps with making my make-up last longer throughout the day. Even with me sweating buckets sometimes my make-up still looks good by the end of the day!

I don't have a lot of foundations with me to try this out with but what I have been using has worked extremely well together! I will def be trying to get this again in the future!
