A day home in bed

Hello ladies, 

So I've spent a few days home from work, not feeling well. Time goes so slow when you're just lying in bed or on the couch. 

I was looking through my pictures on my SD card and found a few looks that I've done but don't have a description on. So I thought I'd post them here as a lite inspiration. 

Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

Makeup Look - Kathleen Lights x Morphe Brushes Palette

Hello lovies! 

I've missed being on here and I've missed you guys! 

If you follow me on Instagram you've seen that my latest posts have been on the Kathleen Lights x Morphe Brushes Eyeshadow Palette! It's so beautiful, it's so good and as always great quality. Unfortunately this was an limited edition palette. 

The palette contains 15 eyeshadows with a mix of metallic, satin and matte finishes. The shades are quite neutral and earthy with a few pops of color. Just the perfect combination! Easy to grab when traveling. And this palette was really affordable, it retailed for about $15!! 

For the first look using this palette I wanted to do something that could be worn for everyday. The lashes I chose were really dramatic so you could skip that step if you'd like. 

At last, as a celebration to Kathleen Lights amazing collaborations I thought it'd be fun to use other collabs Kathleen has done as well. Highlighter is a collab with Makeup Geek and the lip products a collar with Colourpop. 

I hope you enjoy this look!

Makeup Look - Big Bold Liner

Hello lovies, 

I got another look up for you this week. It's a big bold liner (bigger and bolder then what I usually do)  with a touch of autumn under the lower lash line. If you recreate this look do a liner that you feel comfortable with! Or make it big and try something new! 

I hope you like this look! 

Have a great weekend!

Wedding Season - New Clients - Portfolio

Hello dolls,

The weekend before the last I had the honor to do the makeup of another bride! Before her wedding day we did a trial makeup to see what she would be comfortable with. Santa - the bride - doesn't usually wear a lot of makeup so in the end we decided to do a soft look using brown and bronze tones, paring it with a pink lip. 

Here are some photos of the gorgeous bride, her pretty maid of honor and her beautiful mom. 

THE BRIDE

For the bride I used the Too Faced Chocolate Bar and Semi Sweet Chocolate Bar Palettes and also ColourPop shadows. For the cheeks I used Michael Kors Bronze Powder (Unfortunately my camera is washing out the colors a bit) and one of my favorite lipsticks by KICKS Pink Ribbon.

The stunning bride Sanja

THE MAID OF HONOR

For the maid of honor I used the Morphe Brushed 35W palette. On the cheeks we have MAC blushes Fleur Power and Warm Soul. On the lips she chose KICKS Lipstick in Cashmere. 

The pretty maid of honor Natalia

MOTHER OF THE BRIDE

The mother did not want a lot of make up at all because she wasn't used to it. So we did foundation, blush a colorful lip and just a soft wash of color on her eyes. 

The beautiful mother of the bride

Makeup Look - Jaclyn Hill Morphe Brushes Palette

Hi lovies, 

I might have mentioned this before, but I was lucky to get a hold of the gorgeous Jaclyn Hill Palette (both Jaclyn herself and the palette, ok that might sound a bit weird but I hope you know what I mean!!) I've used it a few times but now I finally got the chance to take some pics of the look. I was really happy with the quality of the eyeshadows so I actually also decided to order some brushes, still waiting eagerly for them to arrive.
