Dermacol Make-up Cover/ Foundation *Review*

Hi guys! So you've probably heard of the latest craze; Dermacol's Make-up cover originating in Prague. It is advertised to be: * Waterproof * Hypoallergenic * High Coverage etc. * Long Lasting * Cruelty Free This product seemed like the perfect type of foundation for me so I read a few articles and watched a few youtube videos but I was reluctant on trying since my skin is so sensitive/ dry. A few days later, I thought hey, I'm running out of foundation, why not try and see. I got it on Ebay for £5.99 (shade 218) however, there are cheaper ones available but I was worried about authenticity so I went for a more trusted seller. 3 days later, I received my Dermacol (30 g). Firstly, this product made some interesting claims (including the ones mentioned above): * Alcholol free * Ammonia Free * Paraben free * Minerals * Sun protection (SPF 30) * Vitamins * Non-comedogenic (Doesn't block your pores) Now sadly, I threw away its packaging in attempt to...

Experimenting with Pink Make-up!

Hoi Guys!  So lately i've been trying out a whole bunch of different looks with make-up. I've never been very good with make-up so thought i'd try out improving my skills.  One major thing I couldn't do was the smokey eye T.T I don't know but however hard I try it never turns out decent.

I tried to keep eyeliner to a minimum because I didn't want it to overpower the look. The camera did really not reflect the colours well at all! *sigh* Sorry that all the picture's are not consistent because of the lighting I had to change positions and everything =.= but I hope you get a sort of idea. ..and yes, I had a giant pimpl...

Grab the look - 2012!

In today's post I shall be showing you how to achieve the look for 2012 ! This year it's all about the eyebrows ! So fill in those babies like there's no tomorrow! You don't need to be gentle, just grab a eyebrow pencil and line your eyebrows and fill-away! You want to achieve a thick and full eyebrow(s). Thicker eyebrows mean less eyeshadow you need to wear so go natural on it. Start with brown and fill the lid to the crease and then a gold shimmer colour around the eye to highlight and add 'pop' and depth to make the eyes look more 3-D! We all know that a symmetrical face is pretty so for my personal needs I have drawn another mole on the other side of my face and made it darker to draw attention to the lips! As for the lips , you need to make them plump and kissable so some pink/red lip gloss will do the job. To make them even more irresistible, when applying the lip gloss go slightly over your lip line and then add some lip liner. Now, my beauti...
