OOTN / MOTN (Fete # 5)

Crease definition, eye liner & bright lips 
Hey everyone! I just wanted to give y'all a quick run down of my make up and outfits this weekend. There's different things I take into consideration when choosing an outfit, price (most important), type of event, location and time of event etc and sometimes my mood plays a big part as well. This outfit was chosen for Sahara, a carnival fete thrown on the beach. My make-up is minimal because its humid at the beach and it's outdoors (there might be a chance of rain lol). I used my usual primer and foundation, contour and highlight, bronzer and blush, brown and gold shadow to give my crease definition. My lip liner is milani in no. 8 fuchsia and my lipstick is also milani in the colour flamingo pose.

I'm going to be at the beach, so I needed something consisting of some type of beachwear (just to be appropriate) and of course a whole, flat shoe because the sand quickly turns into mud. I saw this pair of studded sneakers last week and had to get them to run around in for the season. They were perfect to complete this look. Relaxed, sexy with a 'beachy' finish.

(Sorry about the quality of the picture and the trashy background guys, this was the only full length one I managed to get)

Correct Way to Exfoliate Your Skin: Step-by-Step

As we age, the process of cell regeneration slows down. This means that the body is slower to shed skin cells and generate new ones. When old skin cells start to pile up on the surface of the skin, it can leave skin looking dull, rough, and dry. Furthermore, the build-up of dead skin cells can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Proper exfoliation removes the barrier of dead skin cells clogging the skin and uncovers fresh new cells below. This opens the way for moisturizing products to penetrate more deeply into the skin, which makes them more effective. In short, a regular exfoliating routine will leave your skin looking fresh and healthy. Remove make-up - If you wear makeup, remove makeup first, there are a lot of make-up removers currently on the market both liquid and wipes. However for a cheaper, more natural alternative coconut oil or olive oil can be used for both face and eye make-up and baby wipes can be used for those with sensitive ...

The Secret to How to Wear Colour – Choosing the right colours for yourself

Identify your undertone - There are many different shades of skin, but there are only two undertones. The simplest way to identify your undertone is to turn your hand over, palm up, taking a look at the underside of your wrist. What color are the veins? If they look blue or purple, you're cool toned. If they look green or have a yellow cast, you're warm toned. So basically your undertone is what determines what colours look best on you. A cool toned person looks best in what we call "cool" colors like white, black, royal blue, gray, navy, etc. Think of colors that remind you of water, sea, and sky. When in doubt, you can't go wrong with one of these. When it comes to metallics, silver is your go-to. Whilst a warm tone person look beautiful in "earthy" shades like burnt orange, cream, saturated sunny yellow, brown, dark leafy green, and that shade of red maple leaves turn when autumn comes your way. Taupe, heathered brown, and camel are also in y...

Jordanna Lipstick Mini Haul

From left Mauve, Hot Pink, Plum Obsession & Radiant Red Finally getting around to doing this! It’s no secret that I am a lipstick fanatic so of course I went to the mall and ended up getting some pretty Jordanna lip colours and I just thought I’d share.  What I like about these lipsticks the most are not only are they affordable but they’re durable too. Jordanna comes in handy for everyday use like work etc; I also use them for evening and night glam depending on what lipstick I need.  Once they’re set properly (lip liner etc) they look gorgeous and they last a good couple of hours. I picked up three regular colours (in the silver packaging) and one matte colour (in the gold packaging). I’m not a big fan of matte lipsticks because sometimes they can be extra drying on your lips and crack but I tried this one and it’s not overly drying. It’s matte but with some moisture which I love.
