I'm a copy cat...

Everyone else likes Jessie J's makeup so much that I decided it was time for me to give it a crack. I like it too, black lips always get a big thumbs up in my books. My Makeup BFF and i decided that I would wear this entire makeup look out tomorrow night, she's a chicken and only wearing the eyes. My tiny slight problem is that i dont have a black lipstick, so I've had to improvise. Improvising is hard, my current set up is not going to last the night and I don't want a black cloud to slowly swallow my face. I'm going to need to resolve this situation in the next 24 hours.



Anyway so this is what I look like:





Products I used on my eyeballs:


  • MAC Beauty Marked

  • MAC Carbon

  • MAC Shroom

  • MAC Satin Taupe eyeshadows

  • MAC Smoulder Kohl

  • Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Macsara


And on my mouth:



  • MAC Currant Lipliner

  • MAC Carbon Eyeshadow

  • MAC Wrong Spell Lipglass (Venemous Villains Collctn)

Wishlist Vol II

The most exciting news of my life is that I got a job. This means, obviously, that I'm going to be able to afford to treat myself a bit more when it when it comes to luxury items, e.g. make-up!

Now this is great, because there are two collections from MAC in particular that have caught my eye.


First is MAC + Wonderwoman. While the colours aren't exactly novel, I feel like just the novelty of having giant MAC products is worth the money. I'm especially eyeing up the giant Mineralize Skinfinish in Golden Lariat and the Lipstick/Lipglass combo in Marquise'D and Emancipation.





There is also new Lady Gaga colour from MAC. Instead of her first trademark pink, this time she has opted for a rich browny nude. This is awesome for me, because browns are colours I've never been brave enough to wear and now that they are in style, I definately have an excuse to!












Also, I quite enjoy being blue. Not like creepy Avatar blue, just a sublte sheen to give a shine to my skin. For this I need MAC Strobe Cream. Due to the fact that my skin is like ridic dry, any type of product I can put under my foundation to liven up my skin gets a thumbs up from me.


Owing to thefact that I'm trying to be a pro makeup artist, I feel its time to get some profeshh items for my 'kit'. I'm thinking Yaby palettes. Eyeshadow palettes come in lots of 40, and although they are quite tricky to get hold of, they are cheap to replace. They also do foundation palettes, concealer, blusher and cream eyeshadows. 40 eyeshadows is literally more than my entire collection right now.
