.rock on :)

First sorry for not being a while here, I was just enjoying the rest of the summer:D I promise you to post more ^^ Today's tutorial is a look that's sort of rock one :D I had trouble with the eyeliner again, and with the camera. It looks more intenzive in real life. I hope you still will enjoy it.:)

Let's start:
1. Fill in your brows and apply a beige base to the lid.

 2. Then apply a light purple color to the crease and blend it.

3. The go over the light purple with a darker one mixed with black eyeshadow and blend it. Do not apply any eyeshadow to the lid.

4. Now take a soft eyeliner and line your eyes. Set it with black eyeshadow so it lasts longer.(my eyeliner pencil broke right here -.-'')

5. At the end, highlight, apply few coats of mascara. The lips could almost any color (anything nude,bright pink,dark purple or pink,but not red ones or dark brown). And we've finished it ^^

Final result:

I wore this look for a long time and I had a bit problems with the eyeliner on the bottom eyelid. Try to use waterproof make-up or you end up looking like a racoon.:D

summer blues :)

Summer is almost over, but we still can use bright colors which are very popular this season. :D 

Enjoy the rest of the summer, I know I'm not writting so often but I sure will :):)

Let's get this started: ( this is also very easy tutorial, just wanted to show you how just one color can make you gorgeous :) )

1. Just use a soft, creamy eye-pencil. :D Line your eyes and make a little wing like cat-eye effect.

Then set it with a blue eyeshadow ( or any color you're using). For a better effect I lined the outer corner with black gel liner.

 Highlight under your browbone, inner corners, put mascara and you're done.:) Because I've set the liner with powder it stayed the whole night. And I was dancing and stuff.:D This look is best for brown eyes. A purple look would suit blue eyes best, and brown for green :) For the lips I used a bright pink lipstick (forgot to take a picture :S ) but a nude one will be ok :D

Final result:

purple again :))

In my make-up bag are mostly purple eyeshadows :D I made a look that will suit brown eyes best and really make them pop ^_^ hope you like it :)

*some of the pictures might be not so good. :/

1. First apply a light purple cream base on your lid.

2. Then apply a lilac eyeshadow over the base you've applyed before. Blend the edges. Also highligt your browbone and the inner corners with white eyeshadow :)

 3. Now use a more deep purple color ( it is more vibrant than on the picture) and blend it together. Blend it like you would do any other shadow.

4. Take the same deep purple eyeshadow and apply it on your lower lashline. Take a silver eyeshadow and apply it in the inner corners and apply just a tiny bit on your lid to make it more dramatic. Take a glitter eyeliner and line your eyes.

5. At the end curl your lashes, apply mascara (false lashes optional). For the cheeks use bronzer (best for summer) and for lips a nice nude or pink lipgloss. And that's it :D

*Instead of a black liner I applyed the white one.It's your choice witch one you will use*

Final result:

This is a nice look for summer. You just need to be carefull so you don't look like someone punched you in your face :O just kidding, it's easy to fix that. Just take make-up remover and remove what's too much.

quick&simple :)

I love working with eyeliners, in the summer the most. It's simple, clean and for any occassion. 

Because the eyes are simple, you can work more with your lips. 

Hope you like it :)

1. Apply a shimmery cream base on your lid. Set it with a neutral eyeshadow. Do your brows as you usually do.

2. Now we're going to give some dept to the crease. Apply a mat light brown eyeshadow and blend. It will appear more shimmery because of the base.

3. The most difficult part for me is the liner. I prefer to use the gel one, but I use these tricks when i use the liquid one: 1) With an angled brush or a flat one apply black shadow as you would do the liner. Now go over with the liquid liner little by little. If you make any mistakes when you do the winged eyeliner use a q tip with eye make-up remover and clean the mistakes :)

 

At the end apply maskara, false lashes ( I don't have one :$). Highlight under you browbone and the inner corners. Play with the lip color, you can do red, 

bright pink or leave it neutral :D

Final result:

I also applied white eyeliner on the waterline, but what you'll use is your choice :)

Gold rush :)

Well, I'm crazy about golds and browns when I do my eye make-up. :D My brown eyes really pop with that kind of looks. I'll share to you one of my all time favourites.
Gold suites all eye colors nice. It just depends about the color you are using it with. I prefer with brown eyeshadow altough I've seen with pinks&purples. Strange but I think nice :D

so let's start with the tutorial :D
1. First apply a gold cream base on your eyelid. Blend it well.

2. Then add a gold eyeshadow. I used a bronzer (I'll list products at the end). Add a white highlight into your inner corners and under your browbone.

3. I mixed a matt brown and a matt black eyeshadow to make it more glamorous. Apply it to your outer "v" and blend, blend, blend. :DD

3. At the end, apply the black eyeshadow under your eyes, line them with black liner and add mascara ( false lashes are optional ). And that's it :D

Final result:

Now for the face apply a bit of bronzer and for the lips a pink lipgloss..:) see you in my next post!

Products used:
- Avon gold cream eyeshadow ( the name rubbed off :( )
- essence sun club bronze and blush - brunettes,darker skin
-  essence pocket beauty palette in 01 eye love to travel
- Max Factor false lash effect in black
- essence stay with me lipgloss in 02 my favourite milkshake

Lady GaGa inspired :) part 1.

Today's look is a Lady Gaga inspired one. It's a simple look, wearable, but the lashes are quite glamorous. Next time I'll do a more non-wearable one :D

Let's start :D

1. Fill in your brows with a black eyeshadow ( we are recreating it from the picture, but if you want to wear it for a night out etc. use a shadow that's your shade ). For a base apply a blue/white pencil. Blend it out.

2. Now pack the blue eyeshadow on the lid with a wet brush. Blend the edges.

3.  Take a blending brush and a darker blue eyeshadow and put it into the crease. Highlight the browbone and inner corners with a white eyeshadow. Apply a rosey/orangey color under your eyes.

4. Apply a white eyeliner on your waterline. Line your upper lashline and under your eyes with a black liner. Add mascara and false lashes. ( I don't have them so I just put the mascara, and for fun draw a mole :D)

For the lips, just put a nude lipstick on. Add some bronzer and peach blush and you're done!

Final result:

I personaly LOVE Lady Gaga, her songs and make-up. :D Hope you've enjoyed, see you soon :)

essence color&go - review and swatches :)

essence is a drugstore brand that I'm very satisfied with. The quality of products is not always good, but for my low budget it's quite ok. Here are some swatches of nailpolishes I love and I mostly use on my nails :)

First, it says quick drying. I can't tell it's drying so quick. And for some colors, you'll need 2 coats to get the perfect intensity. They last long, up to 5 days, and if you put a base and top coat it lasts even longer. A quick advice, try to use plastic glowes when you clean your house or wash dishes. :)

NOTE: This is not a sponsored post and the opinion about this product is mine and mine only.

Here are the shades that im really in love with:

1.) 43 where is the party?
This is a kind of interesting shade :D It's a  deep violet color with blue(ish) and green(ish) reflections in it. I applied 2 coats to get the deep color of it.

2.) 36 enchanted fairy
This is my favourite shade of all times. It's a paslety, milky pink with silver reflections in it. You can't actually see them, because they are so fine. On the photo 2 coats.

3.) 38 choose me!
Another favourite color of mine. A blue color with gold and blue sparkles in it. 2 coats for the perfect intensity. When it's dry it has that high gloss finish and a smooth surface.

4.) 10 ready for action
A true, bright  red color perfect for summer. A glossy finish, 2 coats needed. Like it!

At the end, the price. Well it depends on in which you buy it. I paid about 12 HRK. I really don't know how much you will find it :D
Do you like essence? Which colors are your favourites?

Turquoise me :)

Here's another bright summer look. First sorry for the pictures, it was a rainy day so the colors are not as bright as I wanted. But still I think the pictures are ok. :)) Also, I've done this tutorial with an essence palette so I'll post pictures of colors I've used. It will be easier for you to see and use similar colors. Hope you'll like  it ;)

Here we go :
1. Apply a cream bronze base for the eyeshadow. I used the one from an Avon palette, but the name rubbed off so I can't tell you it's name. Shape your brows as usual.

2. Here's the palette, it's the essence quattro palette in o1 ciao bella ( sorry but it might be not available anymore, I'm not sure)

Take the color 1 and place it in the inner half of your eye. With the same color highlight under your browbone. Then take the color 2 and place it in the outer half of your eye. Blend this two colors together.

3. Then use the color 3 and blend it into the crease and a bit under your eyes. This will contour your eyes and give it depth.

4. Here's the bight part.:D Take a turquise color and apply it under your eyes over the bronze color we've put before. Line just a quarter of your waterline with black liner. Your eyes willa appear rounder.

6. Finish off with mascara ( I used Max Factor False Lash Effect in black) and put a nude lipgloss ( essence xxxl nudes in 02 light candy)

Final result:

And this is it. Comment if you like it. See you in my next post.

Purple summer^^

Hello everyone! Here comes a new tutorial with yellow and purple, a strange but pretty combination :)
Hope you'll enjoy it!


1. Shape your brows as you usually do and apply a base to your lid ( a yellow pencil/eyeshadow or a white one) and blend it. If you are using a white pencil, highligt under the browbone and inner corner.

   2. Now with a fluffy brush apply a yellow color and blend the edges. Also take a white shimmering shadow and apply it as a highlight over the pencil you've applied earlier. 

3. Take a purple eyeshadow and apply it to the crease and the outer corner in a "v" shape. Blend it well with the yellow shadow. If the yellow is not so intense as before, reapply it. You can wing it to create that cat-eye effect.

4. Take the same eyeshadow and apply it under your eyes. Line your eyes with a black liner and wing it out. The line depends on how you like to wear it. Instead of a black line on the waterline use a white pencil so your eyes look fresh and awaken. At the end curl your lashes and apply mascara. False lashes are optional. For the lips I used a coral lipstick, or use a nude one. Over the top a bit of lipgloss.

Final result:

So here you are.;) A nice, easy summer look. See you in my next post ;)
