Kat von D arrived to the UK! Finally.... Now that I'm off in Canada and can pick everything they decided to contradict me and settle in UK soil. The good thing thou, if I happen to love a product don't need to order online. 

I've placed my introductory exclusive kit by the same time I got the Nikkie palette but just now had a chance to try all the products and have my thoughts.

For a long time I haven't done a halo eye and since we're in transition times between seasons what a better way to put that to work. I personally love bold smoky eye looks in the Fall, compliments the weather in a way.

This time I opted for browns and the only eyeshadow palette I used was the Tartelette in Bloom, which gives you an idea of a look to create with it if you already own the palette. If not, is not a problem since all the shades are standard and pretty much found in any neutral palette.

I hope you enjoy this look as much as I do!

Recently the hype was all over the new Too Faced collaboration, this time with Nikkie Tutorials, whom I've been a loyal follower for the past 6 years. I can say I wanted it for her, but of course mostly for the make-up! I've played with the palette for a while now and I have my opinion on it.

As if you were not expecting something like this to come up... So, let's start by saying there's no gold in here... so far.

The bold is a state of mind, a way of expressing feelings and one that makes you feel like you own the world... or at least is all it gives to me.

I'm a sucker for anything weird, and lipstick is no exception, I hope you enjoy this little (big) collection of fun colours and get inspired to rock that blue you got last month but still had no "chance" to wear.

A little play with glitter to brighten up the days! Summer is over but glitter is here to stay, have a play around and if you're not one for a super bold glitter lid you can always go for the easy liner! Get inspired!

As a make-up artist I need to think more often about my clients than myself when it takes to buy make-up nowadays. At some point I had to start building my kit and since Inglot is a professional and very high quality brand I decided to get some of their products to add to my kit but firstly test myself if they're any good! I know what you're thinking! I can't use products on myself and my clients at the same time but fact is when you buy powder products you have to use them in more than one person otherwise you can't make a living out of it. Of course things are disinfected with proper sprays between uses and between different people, I'm fully aware of hygiene, as every make-up artist should be. 

So here we are! Finally the day came and by this time I'm probably freaking out inside the plane for my stupid fear of flying... 

I guess we can only think about make-up to relax! So, here's what I'm probably packing with me to Canada, and by probably I mean it's already in the suitcase weeks prior... no shame! I'm not gonna give you a full on description of every product otherwise you would fall asleep reading, instead I will write the name and shade and link any post where I talk about it if there's any. Wither way, if you're interested in something in particular you can always point out and a review will come sooner or later. Thank you very much for staying around and I'll see you in Canada!!!!! 

Inspired by The Birthday Massacre this look came alive. Kill The Lights is one of my favourite songs ever and I thought would be appropriate. Also the bunny ring is there for a reason! 

Hope you enjoy this look and somehow wear it this Fall!

 

I know I know, I'm yet to share my experience on my make-up course and it will come soon, but meanwhile you can always take a peek on what I got for my SFX experiments at home!

In a quick shopping trip to Boots I fell the temptation of getting a weird eyeshadow, something I didn't own in my collection... an acid green shade that looked stunning on the shelf. And to myself I thought, that would look cool with my brown eyes! So here's a look using that weird shade, and to be quite fair I ended up loving the combination of purples. Definitely one to repeat!

Starting with the big old excuse of there's no such thing as too much make-up... well, I guess there is when you find yourself forgetting about products you once loved.

At this point in time I decided it was good to clean my make-up drawers and organise them, which made me realise how many lipsticks I just stopped wearing for no apparent reason, other than keep trying new ones.

Catrice has been on my top brands list since I first started wearing make-up, something like 8 years ago?! I've tried a fair amount of products and I can tell things get better each year. I've managed to round up some of my favourite face products to share with you today.
