I'M FINALLY ON YOUTUBE!

FINALLY I'M A BEAUTY YOUTUBER!

I've been watching and learning from other beauty Youtubers for YEARS! and I've always wanted to start up my own channel but didn't for so many different reasons, the main reason being; I didn't know what other people would think.

When I first started watching YT the beauty community was a lot more 'hush hush' then it is now. Now watching makeup tutorials on YT is something everyone and their grannys do. 

Over the past year I've really seen my makeup skills improve and I'm beginning to find my own 'makeup style'. I find myself getting asked a lot about what makeup products I use and friends encouraging me to do makeup professionally, I guess I never thought I was 'good enough', me being the protectionist that I am I hate when things aren't well....PERFECT.

Basically I said to myself ...I need to accept that everything I  do isn't going to be exactly how I want and there's always going to be something I'd like to change or do differently, but at that rate I'd never get shit done!

I'm excited to see where my YT journey takes me and I hope you enjoy my first Youtube video and the rest!

Contour and Highlight Like a Pro

How To: Contour and Highlight

Hey Everyone! Welcome back to my Blog. I was at the Irish Beauty Show in the RDS last Sunday and I picked up the Crown Brush 10 concealer palette which I've been dying to try out!

Here's my How to Contour Tutorial and a quick review of the product itself.

Enjoy! x

Contouring and Highlighting is all the rage lately!

 Its actually a drag queen makeup technique (taken down a notch or two) that has been around for years and has been made popular by Kim K and her fabulous makeup artist Mario.

To be able to contour and highlight like a pro there's a few things you need to understand before you go crazy drawing lines all over the place ( it happens to the best of us). It will also make it a little less confusing as to why you are putting all that crap on your face.

CONTOURING:

By contouring you are creating 'shadows'  and are adding the illusion of a more structured and narrow face.

This mean if you want to make something appear smaller (eg. your nose) or give more depth to your face (eg. cheekbones)  you contour.

HIGHLIGHTING:
As the name suggests you are 'highlighting' a feature on your face, making it appear larger (eg. lips, cupids bow) or making it 'stand out' more or appear fuller.
Personally I like to stick to contouring my cheekbones and forehead only, and highlighting every place under the sun! But its all about what you like and what suits your face shape and features the most :)


WHERE TO CONTOUR AND HIGHLIGHT:
 You can do the whole sha-bang or you can pin point certain areas of the face you want to contour and highlight to make features appear larger or smaller.

Highlight:

Middle of Forehead
Center of the Nose
Cupids Bow (above lip)
Under Brows
Under eyes using the famous Kim K 'Triangle Technique'
Center of Chin
Tops of Cheek Bones

Contour:

Cheek Bones  (always blend upwards)
Jawline (blend down onto neck)
Temple area and Forehead
Sides and Tip of Nose

 QUICK REVIEW/MY THOUGHTS ON THE PALETTE

Highlighting and Contouring can be done using powders as well a cream products. This was my first time using cream products to contour and I really loved the effect it gave, it was really natural!

Here's a look at the product itself

The concealers were really nice to use and they remind me of the Mac Studio Concealers. They blend nicely, some took a little more work to blend, but that was what expected for some of the darker shades.

The concealers give a medium coverage and a little goes a long way!

I think this palette is a must have if your looking to cream contour, conceal or if your a freelance MUA working on different skin tones.

Heres a look at the shades that come in the palette, the darker shades appear more red toned on camera but they are slightly more neutral in person!

Its so affordable and the quality is really nice for the price, I picked this up for €18 at the beauty show but you can get it from the Crown Brush website too!

Hope this helped some of you ladies!

90's Inspired Makeup Look: Warm browns and Dark Nude Lips

90's Baby!

Loving the 90's trend. The fashion, the hair and especially the makeup! uhh love it.

I went for a warm toned brown, soft smokey eye, perfect and wearable for everyday. 

To blend out the bottom lash line after I lined it with gel liner I went in with a matte medium brown shade by inglot (#327) and blended that out with a rusted orange shade, also by inglot (#335)

I completed the eyes with a small winged liner using Maybelline studio gel liner and a couple of coats of Maybelline Falsies mascara <3

For the Bronzer I used Benefit Hoola. For the Lips I used Mac Spice Lip Liner and Nyx Matte Lipstick in Euro Trash, my fav lip combo! <3

Hope you enjoyed this makeup look Lovelys!
