All Made Over!!

So I'm a self confessed make-up addict.  I've been fiddling around with my own make-up for a few years now and 9 times out of 10 I would get it wrong.  But I was happy - after many many hours spent watching the likes of Pixi Woo and Lauren Luke I eventually got the hang of make-up. The thought occured to me that if I could good at this I could be in with a chance to earn a few bob! WIN!  I realised I had to practise, as you know what they say "practise makes perfect" (did ya see what I did there?). I set off in search of my best mate, sat her down and attacked her with make up (in a good friendly way of course!)  And tada! I did my first make up look on someone else. Now I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous but pleased to say it all went well! Here is a picture:


So now, with my new found confidence I decided to invite family members to have their make-up done as well. My rather reluctant sister Lani let me do her make-up. It's a beautiful soft green and gold look!


I used a cream matte base from MUA and then used the soft green from my Beauty UK Palette on the outer edge of the eyelid and took it up and out slightly.  Next I took a gorgeous gold from my MUA Dusk til Dawn palette and used in on the inner portion of the eyelid. For the eyeliner I used a black eye shadow from my MUA Dusk til Dawn palette and used my eyeliner brush and made a very fine line with the black eyeshadow I flicked it out ever so slightly. This is a fresh and light look for day/evening time.  It would be perfect for summer evening BBQs or meeting friends.
