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)

Colour Analysis: Choosing the right make-up for you

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing your make-up but the most important factor in my opinion is being able to choose the right colour and shade. If your base make-up such as your foundation isn’t the correct shade for your skin, it can throw off your entire look. When considering shades for yourself, knowing your undertone is crucial because as I said in my previous article “your undertone is what determines what colours and shades look best on you.” Warm toned women are women with yellow, golden or peach undertones. You look best in gold jewelry. Gold, Copper, Bronze, Earth Tones and Orange-reds are your complimentary colours. In this case your foundation should be Yellow or Peach based; therefore look for shades with a ‘W’ in the name (E.G. Buff 6W). Warm shades lipstick, blush and/or bronzer to look for are peaches, peachy pinks, oranges, corals and orange-y reds. Cool toned women are women with pink, red or blue undertones. You look best in silver jewel...

My addiction (make-up haul)

Since school is out and there’s no traffic, I've had extra time to browse around beauty supply stores before and after work (don’t ask lol). So far this week I’ve been able to pick up a few things that I’ve been meaning to get for a while now. I haven’t gotten a chance to use any of these babies yet but I promise as soon as I do I will post my reviews. NYX Mosaic Powder Blush in Café – I saw this and instantly fell in love.  I love that this is mild and not too pigmented, it’s perfect for giving me that gorgeous glowing finish that I’m obsessed with. NYX HD High Definition Eye Shadow Base – I came across a review about this particular product on youtube and decided to give it a try. I haven’t gotten the Urban Decay Primer (that everyone has been raving about) as yet so I would use this in the interim. Milani Lipstick in the colour Sweet Nectar – This a bright orange lip colour that I kept putting off getting, not too sure why though because orange is one of the ...
