My everyday foundation routine 2017

Goodmorning and happy Sunday!
Here I am again and as an early Christmas present, I made you a video! This last year think I've really finally found the perfect foundation routine.
This video incorporates everything: from BB cream to concealing, contouring and highlighting. And the best thing about it? They're all budget products!
As you will see, my eye make-up is already done. I used my MAC Nine Times Burgundy palette for this look!

Have a good one!

A Christmas make-up tutorial!

Hello everybody! Welcome back! 

I've got a make-up video for you today! If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen a snippet already, but finally, here's the full video!

I decided for the first make-up look to go with gold eyeshadow colours and some eyeliner.

Typical, classic Christmas, but so much fun! I used my Urban Decay Naked palette for this look, as well as two Essence liquid eyeliners.

Below, you can watch the video. Let me know what you think of it! 

Thanks for watching!

Day to night tutorial! ♥

Happy Sunday everyone! 

Today I have another tutorial for you! I have been trying to push myself out of the comfort zone in order to create content for you! 

Remember my spring 2016 look I made for you guys a little while back? In case you haven't seen it yet, here are a couple of links to help you remember: the post with the pictures and the post that contains the video. This look was a very easy, basic make-up look that I do all the time. Right after filming this video, I decided I wanted to make a sequal.

I wanted to make a "day to night" tutorial. And so I did! 

In the next video, I show you how you can add a bit of eyeshadow (and perhaps some liquid eyeliner and false lashes), to create your day make-up into night make-up. (During the filming I moved a bit so in a part of the video I'm a bit out of focus, but you can still see what I'm doing so please bear with me ;) )

Thanks for visiting! Have a nice week! 

Back to basics: the tutorial!

Hello everyone!
My last post on this blog was a very easy, but (in my eyes) very beautiful make-up look. It's the look that I wear when I have no inspiration for something else, or my go to look when I'm in a hurry.
In this look I incorporated pink as the "most important" colour. Pink is a soft and sweet colour that's easy to wear because it can still look quite natural.

I recorded this three minute tutorial to give you guys some inspiration! If you've got some time to spare... check it out!
Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

Getting ready ♥ green smokey eyes

Hi sweethearts!
Fall is officially in town and I'm so excited! The biggest change, the weather, is not my favourite change, but there are some changes that I'm excited about.
Make-up trends for example! I have been wearing green and cranberry eyeshadow a lot recently! I just think these colours are so beautiful and fall appropriate.

A couple of weeks ago I posted an eye of the day using my three favourite green eyeshadows and today I have a tutorial for you!

I hope you enjoy!
Let me know what you think! 

Purple rain make-up look!

Hello loves!
How have you been doing? It's been such a long time since I've recorded a tutorial! Almost a year!
Recently I was in the mood to film again - I've been thinking about it a lot lately and my hands were itching, I couldn't put it off any longer!

 

 

Today's look is a pink and purple smokey eye that is suitable for both everyday or for a night out. I kept it pretty wearable but with a little eyeliner and some fake lashes, this look is suitable for a night out as well.

I hope you like this look! Thanks for watching!

Perfect Christmas make-up look.

Hello everyone!

 Today I have a little photo tutorial for you. This is the Christmas make-up look I will be wearing. I hope you enjoy my post!

I started by applying my Essence I ♥ stage eyeshadow primer.

 

After applying the eyeshadow base, I started to apply a light brown colour in my crease. I did this using my blending brush. The colour that I'm using is from a MUA palette called "Ever after" palette - which is a palette full of nude matte colours. I find that this palette always comes in handy!

Then I went on to my MAC palette. I used a small brush to put "Espresso", a brown eyeshadow, in both my inner corner and outer corner.

As in every make-up look, you shouldn't forget to blend your eyeshadows. You can keep building the colour up. I applied some black eyeshadow, blended out and applied some more. You can make it just as intense as you want to.

After applying the black eyeshadow to both corners of my eye and blending it out, it's time to put some colour on the "naked" part of my eyelid. I decided to go for my MAC "Melon" pigment, but "Rose" looks really good as well. Festive!

The next step is applying eyeliner and mascara! 

And that's the finished look! 

I hope you like it! Let me know what you think! 

My everyday fall make-up look 2014

Hello everyone! 

With a little bit more time on my hands now I have the week off, I decided I would make another video. It's been a really long time since I did a make-up tutorial, but I made up for that, I filmed a new one!

 The pictures of the make-up look have been on this blog already. I decided to put them in this post again because this is the look that I've made a tutorial of!

I hope you enjoy!

A few inspiring tutorials ♥

Hello everyone! Last week I showed you a couple of inspiring pictures and I also had some very nice tutorials. Now, at first I wasn't going to share them rightaway but my camera broke this weekend so I decided I would post them anyway. 

I have been asked for more in debth tutorials or looks so that people can recreate them because sometimes what I write isn't too clear. Hopefully these pictures are a little bit more clear.

I will be making more videos soon and instead of just putting music on the background and speeding up the video, I will also be explaining what I'm doing. That's way it's easier to recreate the looks. The videos are coming up as soon as I have my camera back!

I also want to mention really quickly that I do not own any of these pictures. I got all of them from Tumblr. If you do know any of these people, please leave me their names/links in the comments!

Getting Ready: Pretty in pink make-up look

Hello everyone! I have made a video tutorial of a look that I showed you in one of my "Eye of the day" posts earlier this week.

It's a look with a lot of pinktoned colours but I think the look is absolutely fabulous! I just love the subtile fade of the colours into each other, sight, I wish I would have tried this look a long time ago!

The link to my video is this one right here! Just click it and a new tab will open and take you to my video. Please subscribe to support me, I would really appreciate it.

If you have any requests for a video, you can leave them in the comments below (on my blog or on YouTube).

Products used:

* The Balm "Nude Tude" palette

Photo tutorial: "Tropical Orange"

Hi guys! Recently I showed you the first makeup look in my makeup challenge series. I have also made a photo tutorial for you, in case you wanted to try it out yourself.
Let's go!

The first thing I did was use Maybelline's Color Tattoo on my lid as a base. This colour is called "Permanent taupe". Darker brown colours would work fine as well.

Next I grabbed my MAC eyeshadow in "Honey Lust", a shimmery gold colour. I used a sponge applicator for this because I thought it would be easier to apply. If you don't have a sponge applicator, you can use a brush and wet it a little or spray a little bit of MAC's Fix+ on it.

I applied it right over the taupe base in patting motions.

Next I grabbed my MAC "Texture" eyeshadow. With a thin crease brush I applied this above my crease, slightly blending it out. I didn't blend too much though, I want the colour to peak through.

 

Next I went in with another colour by MAC called "Bronze". I applied this in the crease using a crease/blending brush. I blended it out into the orange colour.

That's where my Catrice palette in "Before or after eight" comes in. I used this darker colour on the right for my outer V. I used the crease/blending brush that I used for "Bronze" as well. I blended it out to make sure there were no dark, harsh lines.

Time for highlighter! I'm using my go to highlight colour by NYC called "Basic Instinct".

Time to blend a little more if needed, curl lashes and apply mascara! Here's the finished look!

Thanks for watching! Let me know if you liked it! 

Have a great day!
