Hi lovelies😘
I saw this photo (below) on Google & was obsessed. I just knew I had to recreate it. It inspired me to do my own take on it as I’d never done it before I didn’t quite know how it was going to turn out!!
I did change it slightly as I took inspiration, I didn’t want to copy someone else’s work exactly. Below is my version of this Christmas Tree inspired look!
I love this green shade, shimmery green shade from Soph X Revolution Palette 🙂 I just love the extra bit of glam it gave this look!! It actually isn’t as hard as it looks! If I can do it, so can you! Used a green face paint as a base for the liner & packed the green shadow on top. I also used face paint for the different coloured bulbs!!
check out my tutorial on my FB page (Link below!)
I then of course had to tie it altogether with a dark red lip!! 🎄 Feeling so festive right now. Are you ready for Christmas?

Hi lovelies,
oh gosh.. crazy!! ITS DECEMBER!❤
Who else loves this festive time of year? so much so I’m doing different looks each day.. here’s the first 3 days as it totally slipped my mind to post them here 🤔 haha!! my bad.
Day 1 – snow is falling
I decided to do an icy wintery look for my first. It was the first time doing a cut crease look with a wing.. really wish I had put winged liner on, but we live & learn!
Used the Addiction Palette 5 for the icy shimmer & ‘Fervent’ & ‘Agile’ single shadows from my custom palette!
Day 2 – Mulled wine shine
I absolutely adore these colours on my eyes so had to do it!! Used the Soph X Revolution Palette 😍 I have a review, click here to read.
Day 3 – green smokey eye
I have green eyes so NEVER use green on my eyes. After using this green, again from the Soph X Revolution Palette! can you tell I love this palette?🙂 I smoked it out using a couple of the light brown shades in the crease. I did put a pop of purple on the bottom lash line which I really thought made my green eyes really bright!!
What do you think of these looks?

hi lovelies 😘
Today is day 20: patriotic inspired makeup! I absolutely loved doing this look… really took me out of my comfort zone as I never use these colours on my eyes! 😍
I used this palette again, literally one look out of this palette! I even used this for my brows!!❤
What do you think!?
I adore this look with red lips, of course it keeps in with the patriotic theme!!
I also paired it with a nude gloss, I never go for gloss. I’m definitely more of a matte girl. But for a change I’m living for this glossy lip!!
which do you prefer; matte or glossy?

hi lovelies,
so I’ve missed a couple of days so I thought I would combine them!! I actually love how the look turned out, not just because it’s inspired by one of my favourite people of all time, Taylor Swift!!🙂 hands up swifties!!❤
I missed the last couple of days due to being super busy & little man had been quite clingy, so here’s days 16, 17 & 18 all in one gorgeous look!! if I do say so myself!! 🤣
Products used:
Face
I started off of course with a cleansed & moisturised blank canvas. I then used my radiance boosting cocktail to give some life to my skin before priming & applying a light layer of foundation. I concealed, powdered & added bronzer & highlight after I had completed the eyes as I like to see how the eyes look before completing my base, I like to do this to make sure the balance is right!
♡ Soap & Glory Bright & Pearly Radiance Boosting Cocktail- Boots
♡ Glorious Face Primer – Younique
♡ Mineral Touch Liquid Foundation (shade scarlet) – Younique
♡ Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer (Shade 0 Extra Fair) – Boots
♡ Touch Loose Powder Foundation (shade scarlet) – Younique
♡ Beachfront Bronzer (shade sunset) – Younique
♡ Touch A La Mode Powder Luminizer (iridescent) – Younique
Eyes
For my eyes I wanted to keep it super simple & easy, I used the shade ‘arrogant’ all over my eye lid & in my crease. I then deepened up the outer corner using ‘brave’. To help blend out the outer edges I used the shade ‘tender’ this also gives a gorgeous glow & highlight to the brow bone. I then packed ‘secretive’ on my lid for a bit of sparkle!! I ran both brown shades under the lash line for a more smokey effect before adding plenty of mascara!!
I also used ‘brave’ as my brow powder to add definition & shape. To set the brows I used my fave brow gel!
♡ Addiction 4 Palette – Younique
♡ Loreal Brow Plumper – Boots
♡ Epic Mascara – Younique
Lips
For my lips I used my fave red lippy to add this bold pop of colour to my look!! & of course to signify the fact that Taylor Swift was my inspiration!!
♡ Splash Matte Liquid Lipstick (shade sizzling) – Younique

Hi lovelies 😘
Today is day 14 of my makeup challenge – ombre eyes or lips! I decided ombre lips as I did this fun floral liner as my look today 😄 Definitely going to practice this flowery liner as the pic I used for inspo looked amazing!! This look is also a season collab I’m doing with a few girls, my season is spring!😄
I really like an ombre lip, I think it definitely makes your lips look more juicy! I used my splash liquid lipsticks in shades sentimental on the outer edges & sublime on the inner part of the lip! 💋
What do you girls think?? what’s your fave ombre look!?

Hi lovelies 😘
Having a baby really does make you feel like your non stop haha! Today’s challenge is Day 13 – makeup pet peeve! At first I couldn’t think of anything but then it hit me.. it is really annoying when you see people with really dark foundation! of course people can do what they want but surely you want it to match!🤔
It just baffles me as there’s so many ways to be colour matched, whether in store, online or trying the actual foundation! Surely we all know by now to match to our neck, we went our skin on our face to match our neck so it’s not obvious we are wearing makeup… isn’t that what foundation is for?🙂
What’s your pet peeve with makeup??
