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.

Three must have beauty products this summer!

Garnier BB Cream & EOS Lip Balm #frontcamera #nofilter  It’s no surprise that I love makeup, so I’m always out looking for new products to experiment with. Two of these three products were introduced to me by my girlfriend and the third one is just something that’s been trending a couple years now. I came across the first product while at my girlfriends’ house, as y’all may know I’ve been doing the hair extensions thing a few months now. I love my extensions light weight & ‘flowy’ so I avoided putting oil based products in it, until I discovered KERATIN, Brazillian Tech by one ‘n only. I got it at pennywise & it was only $36.95. A coin size amount in the palm of your hands, rub it together & evenly distribute it through the hair and I instantly fell in love. It’s a treatment with pequi oil for straightened, permed or colour-treated hair so of course it can be used on your natural hair too. This literally gives my extensions life. I use it once every coup...

Mini make-up haul

Small make-up haul  Hey everyone! I've just started gathering products for my make-up kit and I went out on Saturday and picked up these little beauties *love struck smiley*. I got a chance to use everything so far so I just want to share with y'all my views. The L'oreal true match foundation in W6... umm not my favourite, it's a bit light for me which is weird since the W6 powder matches harmoniously to my skin. I'm hoping it's the tan I got from the beach last week and being out all day Saturday, will definitely give it another chance. Other than it not matching my skin tone it's perfect, it goes on smooth (with the correct brush of course, I used the MAC 188 foundation brush), it's lightweight, gives medium to full coverage and gives a nice 'glowy' finish. I love this foundation, I usually use MAC studio fix fluid but this is a nice cheaper alternative for everyday use. Milani Illuminating face powder in Hermosa Rose.. I cannot get en...

Simple Glam (Night out with the girls)

 Hey everyone, club season is back and in full swing in Trinidad and as opposed to carnival the fashion for ‘clubbing season’ as it’s fondly called is two very different things. Let me explain, carnival has a more casual fashion outlook mainly because most of the events are outdoor, the capacity of patrons at one event also the nature of a fete (live performances etc). Club fashion has more of a glamorous outlook because of its indoor nature consisting of ‘little black dresses’, skirts, blazers etc. My first after carnival outfit was this black and white, close-fitting, above mid-knee length, armhole, cotton dress. I immediately fell in love with it because I can dress it up or down. I like unique pieces but I absolutely love clothes that I can dress up or down. I paired it with black pumps (sorry I didn’t get a shot of them). I wore a pair of mid-size silver hoops, a silver ring, white & silver MK watch and a black clutch with silver lining. When going for a glam loo...
