I love there eyelashes and they are a must have with Liverpool girls and makeup artists all over
they offer a wholesale package of 20 eyelashes for £40 which means they come in at £2 a pack and if you are a makeup artist you no how much of a good deal it is. 
They come in gorgeous packaging with the peaches and cream logo all over, if your like me I am a obsessive over packaging so I love when a company takes prides in it.

they are a winged shape which will give your eyes that extra pop and make them look bigger.

No2: these are Peaches most popular eyelashes formerly called no9 they are sold out in a matter of days so if you want em!! go get em!! 
they are stunning!! they are definitely a favorite when it comes to my clients.

No 3:  We all no a girl who loves a big lash

The Emmy Awards 2013 - Best all together look...

The Hair, The Lipstick, The catching eye makeup the TV stars where out in force at last nights Emmy awards, 
Clare Danes debuted her gorgeous faux bob and shimmery skin but the real winner of the night for me was Sofia Vergara although she lost out on the big win she certainty won in the in the best dressed department wearing a stunning Vera Wang Number, Vera is famous for her beautiful wedding dresses but she is also a red carpet favorite! 

Sofia flaunted her fabulous figure in this to die for red lace gown with a plunging neck line and fish tail,she certainly looked like she was holding it all together.

she paired the dress with huge earrings, made up of diamonds and rubies 
her makeup was gorgeous simple and elegant 
cat eyes and a lip that complements her skin tone perfectly.

A Night Out, The Liverpool Way

Liverpool girls dont do things by half
im sure many of you no that, us scouse ladies are known for are over the top personalities and our quest for all things beautiful

the average Liverpool girl spends her whole week preparing for the Saturday night out
with some going to the extremes of plastic surgery.

Liverpool has double the amount of makeup artists/hair salons than any other city in the UK.
We certainly dont play around when it comes to beauty. 

I thought I would do a little post of how to get the typical scouse look as I no it is a look requested by many, even though you might think it,
the average scouse girl doesn't have them extreme scouse brows, 
Liverpool girls are always classy and though you may not believe we never look trashy.



1. Sleep In rollers

They are a must in Liverpool
everyone girl owns a set of fabulous rollers, and when we discovered sleep in rollers well its safe to say we went insane, just what we needed rollers that we could sleep in! 
if you dont see a girl in rollers when out in town on a Saturday you would suspect there must of been some sort of war.



                 2. The perfect lashes

feeling like a man is a must not 
so no scouse girl feels right without false eyelashes
a must have, 
running out on a Saturday morning is not uncommon.





3. The perfect non streaky tan

Oh to have a uneven tan is the worst that could happen on a Saturday night
some will opt for a spray tan
others will do there own 
couldn't go out looking white now could we ;).




4. The perfect smokey eye

Most girls will go to a makeup artist like me,most weekends I am fully booked up!others will try to master the smokey eye by using palettes like urban decay naked 2
with so many options you can have a different 
smokey eye every other weekend.



5. The scouse brow

The brow that has become famous thanks to shows like desperate scouse wives, however im sorry to disappoint the scouse brows are not so scouse as many ladies do not have there brows like that I would say we like to have are brows more kardashian style
defiantly full, but to have them at the point were you cant see no hair is a no! 



6. the perfect base

Its no secret that we like to have a good base that means trying to show as little skin as possible
Illamasqua skin base foundation is perfect
with Liverpool having both illamasqua and mac stores we are never short of options  





and these are the 6 steps to the perfect Liverpool look
not for everyone but a must for some!
hope you enjoyed

My Fight Against Bad Skin

Hi everyone

As many of you may not know I have mild acne
its been a problem of mine for about 3 years now 
and one of the reasons I got into makeup

I don't have severe acne so I count my blessings
but I have enough of it for it to ruin my day pretty much everyday

for the past month I have been on a mission to
clear out my body

and today I've decided that its time to tackle my acne too
I have tried cream from the doctors and it just didn't work for me
and I dont believe in taking antibiotics or any sort of medication to tackle acne
as I believe you should take antibiotics for much more serious issues

Ive done my research and as acne is a hormonal thing I plan to tackle it from the inside 
thats means drinking lots of water (I Mean lots)
clearing out your liver and putting only healthy ingredients into your 
body making sure your body gets lots of vitamins.
also completely avoiding sugar.

I have also went out and bought some cleansers, face scrubs etc 
just to give myself and extra boost
my mum has always told me the benefits of drinking hot lemon juice in the
morning and night 
so I also plan to do that


Do any of you suffer with acne
if so, what did you use to treat it

I will be posting before & after pictures as the weeks progress

Illamasqua Skin Base Lift Review!

Hi Dolls!!

As soon as I heard about the skin base lift I had to have it, 
even the name (skin base LIFT) made me want it, 
Illamasqua are known for there individuality and there high class products
so I excepted nothing more.

I have to admit it I didn't believe in concealer as it had never worked for me, 
I have the worst panda eyes and had completely given up on it.

until now


SB lift comes in 7 different shades one of them being a pure white,
 perfect for highlighting 
the other 6 shades contain peachy tones to flatter & Lift the skin,
the formula is rich and creamy and very easy to work with.
the shade I used today was Light 1


Okay so the first picture (top left) is without any product under eye expect for Hydra veil,
I used a pea sized amount and applied it with my fingers
next I used a crown brush concealer brush to apply the product under my eye and above my brow
I then took my beauty blender and softly blended it all in
finally I took a Illamasqua Blending Brush 2 and MAC pressed blot powder in medium and lightly pressed it into the skin.

And here is the finished result




I am amazed and will now be purchasing all the shades for my kit,
it is a must have to get rid of those bags!
I am finally a believer in concealer 

price: £16
Where to buy: www.illamasqua.com


Hope you all enjoyed the review
will you be buying SB Lift
or have already bought it 
& what did you make of it?
let me know
