Next, if you have a lip gloss that you love, which is nearly ran out. You can save it! Place it upside down in a mug of warm water, and leave in for a few minutes. Then the excess lip gloss, will come of the sides.

More Tips/ Tricks!

Hi
Today I'm going to share with you some great tips/ tricks. It's been a while since I did my last post like this so here we go!

Always use a eyelid primer before applying your eyeshadows. This will make the colour last longer and look more intense. If you don't own a proper eyelid primer you can use any stick concealer you own as one. Or you could even use a liquid concealer if you want, like: Natural Collection CoverUp Cream.

When are you planning on moisturising? Make it after you have a shower or bath. Then your skin will be smoother and softer.

When filling in your eyebrows, use powder to create a more natural look. However pencil does last longer.

If you've ran out of eyeshadow don't worry! Instead just apply a bit of blush or bronzer! As well even if you do have eyeshadow but you love the colour of your blush, you can still use it on your eyes. This can also work the other way around! I love using the MUA shade 16 eyeshadow as a blush!

Hope These Tips Helped!

Autumns should select colours with golden undertones, like camel, beige, orange, gold and dark brown. Avoid colours with blue tones, like navy.

Springs can wear warm colours like camel, peach, golden yellow and golden brown. Avoid dark, dull colours.

Loreal Infallible Brush Foundation Review

Hi
Today I'm going to do a review of the Loreal Infallible Brush Foundation. This foundation costs £12.99, which is quite pricey for a drugstore/ highstreet product. This is for normal - oily skin types.

First how to apply this foundation:
This already comes with a brush that is usable. However I prefer to apply it to the back of my hand. Then using a concealer brush apply the foundation on any redness or blemishes I have. I think this is a great way to apply it and still look natural.

This turns quite dry after application and lasts all day, while your at work or school.
I rate this product 9.5/10!

Technic Glamorize Sultry Eyes Duo

Hi
Today I'm going to do a review of these:

The Technic Glamorize Sultry Eyes Duo.
I have the one pictured in the middle above, which is the brown duo. This can create a natural eye look or even a brown smokey eye. According to the packaging these are cream eye shadows. However I prefer to call them shade sticks or shadow sticks.
Something I don't like about this is the lighter colour, creases when applied. However the dark colour does not crease (randomly).
Apart from the base creasing I do like this especially as it is only £1.99.
I rate this 6/10!

4 Super Simple School Styles!

Hi
Today I'm going to share with you some great ideas, for mainly school or they can be used for work as well.
These are all simple styles that anyone can do.
- First one is just straightening all your hair so its super straight. I would recommend ghd's as they are such good quality and make your hair stay straight all day long.
- Another thing you could do is curl your hair with a large barrel curler to create a natural wave in your hair. I think this looks really glamorous.
- You could also sweep your hair back into a high ponytail and secure with a hair bobble. Then wrap around the centre of the ponytail to create a bun. Secure this in place with some bobby pins or using a second bobble.
- Finally a really easy style to do is put your hair into a low side ponytail and tease/ backcomb the ends to add volume to the ponytail. Then hairspray so it stays in place. Finally to finish it of add a hairband, however I would only recommend adding a hairband for school, not work. This should look kind of like the photo above.

Autumn Golds

Hi
Today I'm goin to help you create this eye look. Which is perfect for autumn.
Autumn to me is all about golds browns and dark reds/ crimsons. I also like have floral and leaf printed items to wear in the spring time.

First apply a primer or, (if your lucky enough to own one, a mac paint pot). If you are using a mac paint pot I would recommend Rubenesque.
Next apply a gold shadow, (like the one above), all over your eyelid.
For your crease apply a light brown.
Now for shadow apply a dark brown for definition.
Finally apply a few coats of mascara, this will make you lashes super long!

Now you have achieved this beautiful eye look.
