Hiii, as promised I have the 'Get Ready With Me' from last week! I went to a wedding party and I actually really liked the make up, it was completely different from anything I've ever done so I thought I'd share it with you!
I've come to the conclusion this week that I'm not quite ready to post selfies on here. I'm not sure why but it's something that scares me quite a lot so I've re-created this look in a way that I'm most comfortable with. By drawing. I've always found myself drawing in different situations and I find it de-stressing...(Is that a word?). Some of you may find this a bit of an odd way of doing this but this is something I do regularly when finding new make up looks and I thought it would be good to share it this way with you!
ENJOY!
Let's get started!
Firstly, I used the No7 Stay Perfect Shine Free Primer. This is by far my favourite primer because it gives such a smooth base for my foundation. It lasts all day and doesn't let my make up slip around during the day.
Like always, I then used the No7 Beautifully Matte Foundation. It goes on so well on top of the primer and it has the best coverage of foundations I've ever used.
Moving onto concealer, I used the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. This is by far one of the best concealers I've owned. It works so well for covering spots and even acne scars. It lasts so long and I don't have to worry about it creasing.
For under eye concealer, I used No7's Matchmade Concealer in Caliclo which is one shade lighter than my skin. I just use this to brighten my under eye area and to cover dark circles which this concealer is very good for!
For brows, I picked the trustworthy Collection Work The Colour Nude Eye Palette and I used the top right brown for this. It's super easy to use and it's not too heavy and bold.
Firstly for the eyes I used an eye primer from Avon and set it with 'Foxy' from the Naked 2 Palette.
I then packed on the colour 'Half Baked' from the Naked 2 Palette and added a bit of definition in the crease using the colour 'Busted' again, from this palette. I also took Busted into a V in the outer corners and created a smokey eye. I made sure to blend both colours, especially Busted, upwards because if I did it downwards, it would make my eyes look dull and that's not a look I want to go for!
I also took 'Blackout' on a small angled brush and pushed it into my top and bottom lashes and blended lightly to intensify the lash line. Basically using eyeshadow as an eyeliner. I'm not much of an eyeliner person (mainly because I can't do it) but eyeshadow is so much easier to do and personally, I think it completes any eye look.

Where I applied Half Baked, I went over and added the Barry M Dazzle Eye Shadow in Gold. I loved using this because it stood out but it wasn't bold and in your face so it made it a lot easier to wear.
To finish the eyes, I used the Bourjois Volume 1 Seconde Mascara. I absolutely love this, it's so easy to apply and creates a false lash effect.
For bronzer I dug out my old favourite and used the Bourjois Délice de Poudre Gold Bronzing Powder just to add a little definition and to add a bit of colour to my face.
Moving onto lips, I started by using a small angled brush to apply my lipstick to outline my lips slightly to make it slightly easier for me to apply the lipstick. The lipstick I used was the Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture in 64 Fuschia Danger. This is by far my favourite part of the look, I absolutely adore this lipstick!
Feel free to re-create this and let me see! Tag me on Instagram, Twitter or email me, I'd be happy to see them!
Thanks for reading!
