Ok, for the last few days I've wanted to wear really, really glossy lips. But all the glosses I have are shiny, but none are shiny enough...if that makes sense. Haha. So whats the SHINIEST, glossiest, but not sticky gloss you guys can recommend to me. I'll try out anything, drugstore (tho am in...

Ugh, I hate feeling like I'm bringing the drama llama, and acting all victim-y, but I need to rant/get outside perspective on this. Ok, so first some background info..I have a few close friends, but one thats the closest is my friend Hayley. I've known Hayley since I was 4 years old, shes a bit...

The first FOTD looked better in real life...I used a cheap black eyeshadow. Mistaaaaaaake! It might have worked better had there been a black base under it, but alas, I have none, and I feared using fluidline would render my eyelids black for the week following. Heres what I used (mac or...

(...when it comes to titles. I always draw a blank!) So, Colourful FOTD...I was bored one night last week so I decided to play I seem to have been doing neutral/golds/coppers a lot lately so I was taking a step back from them! I used: (mac or noted otherwise ) Face: Superbalanced Makeup -...

Ah, so the first one is kinda similar to my last fotd I was still feeling autumn-esque, so I went for more gold and reds. I was going out for dinner with my best friends and I didn't have long to get ready, so it was a bit rushed. Used: Mac or otherwise stated. Face: Non-fiction - Benefit...

I love when I've seen people use Gold and Purple together, and it reminds me of autumn! I decided to give it a try for myself. I wish the purple showed up darker on my camera..I'm sure it was in real life I used (mac or stated otherwise ) Face: Non-Fiction Foundation - Benefit Studio Fix in...

Hiya everyone! I had some free time earlier in the week, so I decided to play! I really want gold pigment, but I can't at the moment, so I bought a loreal one. Its no where near as nice It looked really good when I tried it on my finger but it didn't come out as well using a brush *grr*...

Hello chickadees! So my mom and I decided on a whim last week we wanted red lipsticks. After going around *every* counter at Selfridges, we went back to the first one we started at (lol - typical, yes?) Chanel. Well, my mom bought "Passion" and I bought "Brilliant" Its perhaps not what I...

Hey lovely specktra chickins! I went to mac earlier, so of course I had to try out my new colours! (not all of them though, as they wouldnt go at all well!) I also got a monroe piercing ^_^ I wanted it for ages, and today I just thought, "right thats it!" And off I went! I also got my eyebrows...

I'm going to the freestanding mac store by me sometime soon, and I want to buy some new eyeshadows. Because I'm soooo indecisive I need help choosing, so thats where you guys come in! I'm NC15-20 and I like everything (which is where my problem lies) I mostly wear purples or greens. I'm...

Ok, I have a couple of questions, hopefully you lovelies can help Sorry its a bit of a long ramble. 1) Foundation - I like my foundation, but, I find it doesn't stay very well, especially if I go to a club or somewhere like that. I think its partly because its warm, and partly cos I have oily...

This first one is from ages ago! Unfortunately we had a really toasty day so my face was a bit shiny grr, tho these were taken right after I'd finished putting it on, so hopefully I'm not too bad. (if its not mac, i've stated otherwise!) Face: Benefit Non-fiction foundation Givench face...

yay, hokay, well a couple of people asked for a tut when I posted my last FOTD, so I tried! This didnt come out as well as I'd hoped. But I figured I spent an age on it so I'd post it anyway! I have to add I've been ill for the last week, so that coupled with the fact that taking photos of...

Sooooo yesterday, I tried to use *Luna*'s tutorial, but it didn't come out anywhere near as nice, since I'd not got some of the colours and had to improvise. (Original by *Luna* here: http://www.specktra.net/showthread.php?t=66671) I do love the fact that I now have a use for star violet...
