This morning I work up and my skin was dry, red and just looked terrible.
The more ill I get, the worse my skin gets.
So I needed a quick face mask, but had none, so I decided to go through the cupboards and fridge!
I know that Cinnamon and milk are great, also so is oats and then I saw an avocado in the fridge that was just calling me to use.
This is what I did:
In a Pestle and Morta, I mixed,
1/2 an Avocado,
A layer of Oats,
Covered with a layer of cinnamon,
Lastly a splash of milk.
Mix together till you have a paste mixture,
Then apply on you face with your fingers, make sure you try and stick as much mixture as you can onto your face, (I know bits will fall off, but that’s fine!)
Leave for 15 minutes, then rinse off with warm water. Once all the mixture is off, I like to get a face cloth and dap my face with warm water.
Now my skin, smooth, not dry and less blotchy!
I had some mixture left over, so I used it to wash my hands with and they have also come out lovely!!
It seems that “Rose Gold” and “Metallics” are the colours that are every where at the moment, especially in the Make Up world.
I don’t want to break the bank at the moment, so I decided to make my own (again! but last time I made a highlighter!). I’ve been really wanting a “Rose Gold” themed palate, so why should I buy a whole palate, when I just want one colour!? So it’s to experiment again!
This how I got on and what I achieved:
What I used:
Small clear Pot
old eyeshadow. (I used an old Kardsahian Palate!)
squeeze highlighter (I used my Trusted L’Oreal Paris one!)
Squeeze of primer
small pot to mix (I used acid from my dry shampoo!)
something to stir with.
make up wipes (as the powder can get everywhere!)
What I used.
Now Its Time to Mix!
First I scraped the colour that I wanted in to pot. (I used the whole sparkly silver, a little of the first white and little of the blush at the right)
broke them up till all the lumps have gone, then added squeeze of highlighter and a squeeze of Primer, then mixed into a paste.
Next I put the powder paste in to the clear pot and flattened down with a top of a pen.
Lastly, I put a make wipe over my finger and smoothed the paste.
And there you have it, A cheap, easy and quick eyeshadow thats the perfect colour just for you!
You can use any colours and any products with this technique!
I recently went to my local Primark, saw the make-up stand and instantly had the urge to purchase. I have never tried using there make-up before, so I was eagerly excited to try it out.
What I brought from Primark.
The first thing that caught my eye was the packaging, I thought this looks very familiar, then it came to me, the contour and hight kit looks a lot like Kim Kardashian’s make-up brand packaging. Also the lip kits look just like Kylie Jenner’s Lip Kits, but of course being Primark, the price is extremely different, which I’m not going to complain about! The Contour and Highlight kit was £8 and the lip kit was £3!
I adore the make-up I already have, I couldn’t wait to add it to my collection and try it out!
So this is step by step what I did, used whilst incorporating the primark make-up:
Step one– sheet face mask.(This one I had in the cupboard for a while, from TKMAX!)
Step seven –use Gosh 002 again all over face Step eight- use primark higlter stick under eyes in a triangle shape towards the nose and sweep the stick on your temple on forehead, use the sponge end of brush the kit came with to blend Step eight-use fenty beauty foundation in shade 150 and blend into the rest of face, use extra foundation to cover any blemishes by dabbing Step nine- use primark nude kit contour stick, swipe above jaw line, use the sponge to blend then brush over with the other end of brush Step ten-add blush to apples of cheeks, I use benefit cheek parade pallet, rockateur , using same pallet hoola lite on jaw line Step eleven-using the primark fan highlighter brush, sweep huda beauty 3d pallet Seychelles across cheek to temple, using same brush blend Tahiti under cheek.
Step eleven
Step twelve- use primark nude lip kit in mesmerise, line lips using lipliner in kit and contour lips then apply the gloss, in center of lips sweep kylie Jenner gloss that use on eyes and blend.
This is the finished look
Conclusion:
I loved the brow highlighter, the contour stick and the brush! but not sure about the highlighter stick, not sure if it was strong enough, that’s why I had to add my Huda Beauty highlighter. The prime spray is defiantly something that i’m going to continue to use, it was none greasy and oily on my skin, I most of all it was light, I find most primers quite heavy, thick and for £2 you just cannot go wrong!
I hope to do a blog on this post very soon, if you have any tips on using any of these products I would love to hear them!
I hope you have enjoyed this post, I absolutely love trying new products and looks!
