Icons - Becoming Bridget Bardot!

Hello beauties!


This week as I’m sure everyone will know - whether you’re happy about it, or in my case not so much - saw the beginning of the 2014 World Cup. I’m really not a massive fan of football, but my better half Matt of At the Far Post is and aside from annoying me with it, he'll be blogging his opinions on the world cup, so if you're male counterparts are being all footbally, send them over to there!!! However ill be avoiding football talks and matches ill be burying myself in makeup - no surprise there!!! But on to the more important....

Very 60's shoot here!

 

 

Getting Lippy, Kardashian Style!

Hellloooo Beauties!

Hope you’re all having a wonderful week. I’m currently going through a little bit exam hell which is why I’m a little late with the post this week - so I am very very sorry! This week I have done my first tutorial on someone else, the pictures may not be the best as I’m still finding my feet in the world of tutorials (one day I might get it right!) but nevertheless I've given it a shot. So today's tutorial is loosely based on Khloe Kardashians berry lip look - now I’m personally not a massive follower of the Kardashians but my lovely housemate (and model for the day) adores them, and I know a lot of you do! This is a shimmery eye look with a plum lip - which I’ve been assured are one of Khloe's favourites!



Finished look on my lovely housemate Ellie


 

'Ello Elsa!

Hellllloooooo Beautiesss!!!

Hope we are all doing well! Welcome to my new look blog!! Due to my inability to work with computers I manage to break my blog this weekend and had to restart - as you can imagine it was a fairly stressed weekend - so if you like the new layout let me know!! Now on to the serious matter - my tutorial based on Elsa from Disney's Frozen. I LOVE this film (yes, I am 21, no this has not stopped me), so when it was suggested I created my version of an Elsa's look I jumped at the chance! I've linked most of the products so you know where to get them from without the hassle of searching. Just a little disclaimer, I'm not in anyway a professional so these are just my personal opinions of how to achieve this look. Also as I'm fairly new to the tutorial scene please let me know what you think - good or bad - so I can improve future posts! So do you wanna build an...Elsa?!




Prepare for some interesting faces!

Evening beauties!

How are we all? So this week I’ve attempted something a little new to me (drum roll please), tutorials/pictorials - I’m not sure what there called! I’m basically going to do my best to show you a few looks in the simplest way I can. Some of you might be asking, ‘Why not just do a video Lynds?’ Well, I’m from a urmmmm lovely city known as Wolverhampton, and the accent this wonderful town has given me is somewhat vile and most definitely not made to be filmed.

So the tutorials today used the items used in last weeks blog - I spy with my little eye; the 17 starry eyes trio, the Cosmopolitan brush set and the Saffron eyeliner. You might also find it easier to use a fluffy blending brush for some stages of these looks, and I promise to review a budget friendly one soon *Brownie promise*.

　

Smoked out starry eyes 

Apply your base how you normally would, I like to apply my foundation first even though 90% of the time I end up wiping half of it off! I’d also suggest filling in your eyebrows before you start because I think it gives you a better idea of the finished look. Side note - please don't judge my eyebrows I’m currently in the ‘you over plucked them you idiot now you need to grow them back’ stage.
