EOTD: A touch of purple

Hello everyone! How have you been? 
Sometimes when I start putting on make-up, I have an idea of what the end result should look like. But when it's finished, it doesn't look like what I expected first. Simply because I tried something new or I was inspired by something else all of a sudden.

Today I wanted just a little bit of pink eyeshadow on my lid and maybe some liquid liner, but then I looked at my gorgeous MAC palette and though 'well, it's been a while since I've used those gorgeous purple eyeshadows, I should use them more often'. And so I did.
 

I applied my "Pink gold" Color Tattoo by Maybelline all over my lid first. Then I used MAC's "Star Violet" for the middle part of my eye and I applied "Sketch", also by MAC, on the outer corner. I didn't apply the colours any higher than my crease.
After that I blended all the colours, you shouldn't be able to see harsh lines, they should gradually fade.


I applied a bit of eyeliner and mascara, both by Essence (as always) and that's the finished look! 


Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed! 
Have a good day!

Manicure Monday

Hello everyone! How have you been doing? 
I've been really good but also really busy  because exams are coming up and I have a lot of work to catch up on! 

It's been quite a while since I uploaded a manicure Monday but I really wanted to share what my nails currently look like. I've never had acrylic nails before but since mine keep breaking and fake nails that you can glue on keep falling off, I decided to get acrylic.


I didn't want a colour that was too dark since summer is around the corner but then I saw this blue and I fell in love... It's a bit darker than I wanted the colour to be, but it's oh such a lovely colour! 


What do you think? Which nailpolish would you recommend to me?

EOTD: Fifty shades of green!

Hello everyone! How are you doing?
Lately, I haven't been wearing a lot of eyeshadow, due to a busy schedule and just no time to experiment. I do miss experimenting with make-up a lot, I used to have a lot more time.


Today I had 30 minutes to spare and so I decided to create a look using three different greens and a couple of brown eyeshadows.
It's still quite neutral from a distance, but if you look closer, you'll see there's more to this look. 

 

I'm trying to incorporate more colour in my looks, since summer is on it's way and I like to change up my looks every once in a while.
I'll also try to make some more photo tutorials soon!


Thanks for reading! I hope you're having a lovely day!
