EOTD: Universe

Last week I got new "glitter dust" by H&M. I already had some gold glitter dust and since I am so crazy about them, I've been wanting to get more.
A few days ago I found some colours I liked - and they were on sale as well! I got a silver one, a white one and a black with blue one - all for €3 a piece.


I love glitter. It comes in handy for special occassions like birthdays and New Year's celebrations, but it's also a fun to wear on a daily basis. You get to create a fun make-up look and the sparkly just makes it that extra bit special.

This look that I made today doesn't just have glitter dust, it also has a bright eyeliner and some black eyeshadow. Easier than you'd think and great to steal the show on a night out!
Oh, and when you look up, you might notice that the sky above you looks just like the make-up you have on your eyes.
Let's have a look!


I applied two shades of brown in my crease first and blended them out. Next I applied black eyeshadow all over my eyelid and just a tiny bit of glitter glue on top of that before applying the glitter dust. 
I also put on black eyeliner, to put blue eyeliner on top of that later (it just shows up better when there's a base already). Some kohl liner on the waterline, mascara and done!

 

Not your everyday kind of look. It is a bit of a dramatic look, but it sure is fun. Below you can find two full face pictures!


Thank you again for reading today! Have a good one!

EOTD: Classic cool toned smokey eyes!

Goodmorning everyone! I'm not sure if you've noticed but the past week has been the week of smokey eyes! 
I told you in one of my recent posts that I have been homebound and therefore have had a lot of time on my hands. This has also given me the opportunity to spend some more effort on my make-up.
So far I have been trying to think of creative make-up looks every single day. This look today is a typical classic smokey eye. I rarely use cool tones for a make-up look- so I thought it'd be fun to do that today! Switch it up!

 

For this look, I used the Flawless 2 palette by Make-up Revolution. This one has a lot of brown shades (cool and warm) and a variety of great grey shades as well. 

The black eyeshadow that I used is from the Nude 'Tude palette by The Balm. I think it's a very pigmented eyeshadow but it's also blends out incredibly well. The silver glitter eyeshadow was a single eyeshadow by Catrice. I don't think they have this one anymore, but I'm sure they have a replacement.


Below you can see what my full face make-up looks like. I tried not to go completely overboard and also apply really heavy eyeliner and lashes because this was a "daytime" look but of course you could if you wanted to. At nighttime, I would probably add lashes too!




Enjoy the rest of your Saturday! 
See you soon!

EOTD: Mermaid life!

Hey you guys! 
I don't know if you can tell, but I have been on a roll with make-up looks lately! I have been homebound for the last week and rather than watching TV, I have been trying to keep busy with new and refreshing make-up looks, as well as keeping my lifestyle healthy and happy.

Today's look was created with my Flawless palette by Make-up Revolution. It holds plenty of grey toned eyeshadows and a couple great green-ish shades.

 

I also used one of my old Catrice shimmery eyeshadows. This one really is gorgeous. There's so much shimmer in it, it just makes your eyes pop! It definitely boosts this look!
 Unfortunately, this one was limited edition and is not available anymore.


I hope you have a really nice day! 
As always, thank you for reading!

EOTD: Feeling Feline

Goodmorning! How are you?
These last few weeks have been so weird. First, a lot of sun, then two weeks of rain, ...
This eye of the dayis a look that I created during one of those rainy days. I used my "Balm Voyage" make-up palette and my "Nude Tude" palette by The Balm to create this look.
 I'm a huge fan of The Balm and their products, and I use them on a weekly basis to create looks.


Let me know what you think in the comments below! 


Thanks so much for reading! I'll see you on Saturday!

EOTD: Smoke

 

Ah, June is finally over. July has arrived which means no more school, no more worries, some time to enjoy! 
I have been meeting up with friends and I must admit I have also attended some parties. Today I want to show you the make-up look I did for one of the parties I went to. It's a classic smokey eye.


Instead of the normal warm colours I like to use on my eyes, I went for silver, white and black. This look took some time because it needs a lot of blending but I'm quite pleased with the result. I used colours from all the palettes I have, a little mix and match to achieve just the right look!


What do you think of this make-up look? 
Thanks for reading! Have a good day!

Kelly Brook by New Look eyeshadow palette review + makeup look!

Hello you guys! How are you doing? I hope you're all doing okay.
Today I decided to make quite a long post for you guys! I'm going to be reviewing my Kelly Brook by New Look smokey eye makeup palette that I got when I was in Paris!
I'm also going to be showing you my look that I made with this palette, and a photo tutorial will be up soon!
I hope you guys enjoy!


I think the packaging of this palette is really pretty. The palette was in a tiny black box with gold letters on it. I usually don't take smokey eye palettes home easily (because I don't wear dark makeup often), but this one I couldn't resist. The palette also holds some colours that I don't have yet.
 

The palette itself doesn't really have anything on it. It's rather boring. I was surprised to see how big the eyeshadows were though.
 

And then the makeup look... As always I want to warn you that the colours look darker in real life. I take all of my pictures in front of a window, because I always try to use natural light, but it makes the eyeshadow look more neutral. It isn't.

That's it! Thanks for reading again today!
