FTOD: Make up look for green eyes :) + Collection 200 lasting perfection concealer review

Hello :)

My make up look for today with lilac eyeshadow from MUA palette. I think these colours are a great choice for ladies with green eyes (like me) as they make them really stand out. It may seem that lilac colours won't work with warm skin tones, but I personally think they do, especially with yellow skin tones as lilac and yellow contrast with each other. I personally have warm undertone to my skin and I find wearing lilac/purple eye shadows with cool pink or purple doesn't fork for my compxion, so instead I choose warm nude lip colours such Sleek Naked lipstick.

MUA eyeshadow trio in Passion, which I used for this eye look. I really like colours in this palette but I'm not fun of the texture of the eye shadows. They seem quite sheer in application and difficult to work with. I much prefer 12 colour eye shadow pallets from MUA in terms of the texture. Though the colours are lovely and I may try other ways of applying these eye shadows.

In this post I'm also doing a review on my new concealer from Collection 2000 which I got today because I've completely finished other 2 concealers I had from different brands.

Product list:

FOTD: every day look, Angelina Jolie inspired

Hey Guys..  I really liked her look on this photo and decided to create a similar look. I especially liked the lip effect which, I still didn't figure how to achieve, though I still tried.

I quite like this look. It is a great every day look that would look good with nude or bright lipstick. 

The only thing, I did have similar false lashes and I didn't do the wing with an eye liner.

 It's a shame I look nothing like her, she is just gorgeous :)

 

Products I used:

Neutral make up look + 28 Neutral/Natural eyeshadow palette review

This is a neutral make up look I came up with today for work. I actually really like this look as it is suitable for the day and night when paired with darker lip colour such as red. This especially would look rally good with orange red lipstick. The camera didn't pick up a little smoky effect achieved with smudged eye liner which is a shame.

Anyways, this is how it looks:

Products I used:

Soft feminine make up look in coral shades

This is the look of today.
I find this look soft and feminine. This could be a nice day look with a nude lip or a romantic evening look with darker lips, or however you may like it.

 This look, again is quite inexpensive achieved with mostly drugstore brands.

Products I used:

Face of the day, Natural make up look

This my make up for today. I decided to use another Elf eye shadow quad for a neutral eye look. This is what I ended up with.

 I wanted this look to be "no make up look" but I think I've used the wrong lipstick colour which is much brighter than my natural lip colour. Oh well..

I tried to take a picture of closed eyes but they seem to come out too dark so I'm going to use my normal camera next time, though I wasn't particularly impressed how eyeshadows blended. Elf eyeshadow in Drama blended much better to be fair. But I suppose if you only want a light touch of eyeshadows Elf Brownstone should be OK.

Here are the products I used for this look:

Inexpensive smokey eye look

Hi guys.In my first post I wanted to share the look of today acheived with really inexpensive drugstore make up products. It's nice to have products that offer value for money, especially with current economic climate. The products I've used are very affordable and if you are a student or on a tight budget you can't go wrong with these!

This is what I've used to get the look:

 

From L to R

Elf Brightening Eye Colour in Drama - good pigmentation, easy to work with

Elf Mineral Infused Mascara - pretty good mascara for £3.50

Garnier BB Cream in Light - I absolutely love BB creams, and you get 50ml for £9.99. I also love the glow it gives to the face unlike other foundations or BB creams I've used.

Elf lipstick in Nostalgic - nice for the price you pay, though not my favorite in terms of formula and texture

Elf Mineral Booster in Corrective Yellow - very mattifying, especially good when using BB cream

MUA blush in the shade 1 - gives a lovely youthful colour to the cheeks and lasts all day

Black eye liner from Gosh

Elf Mineral eye shadow base (which I forgot to take picture of) - very good value for money, depending on what eyshadows you use with it, sometimes they last all day!
