FOTD: Desert Rose

Hey ladies!

Today I decided to have a little play around with my makeup as it has been a while since I have done anything dramatic or at all different to my everyday look. I decided to create a double wing and got carried away whilst doing so and ended up double winging my inner corner too. Quite pleased with how it turned out actually! Makeup deets below:

FOTN: Pop of Blue ♡

Hullooo! ♡

So last night I put on a whole face of make-up for pretty much no reason whatsoever. This is pretty much a "Face of the Night" blog post because I applied my make-up at night.. Not because I was going anywhere. Ah, the sweet life of a social reject.

I've seen a few people rocking this look recently - the blue liner/lower lid look that is - and as I thought it looked pretty awesome so I decided to give it a good old go. I actually really liked the way it turned out and figured it would be a little bit of a waste if I didn't blog about it.. So here you go! I realise I've used a TON of products (as you'll see below) - honestly, it's really not necessary - I was just playing about with my makeup and got a little carried away (lol). I hope you enjoy!

FOTD- Arabic Inspired Dramatic Makeup ♡

Hello Ladies! ♡

I thought I'd try and do an FOTD/FOTN inspired by Arabian makeup. I find it so glamorous and feminine and really wanted to test it out as it is one of my absolute favourite looks. 

I've always LOVED the Arab culture.. from their food, music and dancing right through to their makeup and fashion. It may have something to do with living abroad in an Arab country for a while in my childhood. I can't say it was a negative influence at all though!

I kept my face very neutral so that my eyes stood out from the rest of my face. I used a selection of matte and shimmery bronzers to create a dewy bronzed complexion. I also opted for nude lips and kept them quite matte so that my face didn't look over-the-top and greasy.

I don't know how well the look has come out as my makeup skills are self-taught so I'm not the best when it comes to creating such wild eye-looks haha. I'm personally not too keen on the double-wing I created as it's rather scruffy and not very precise. I don't think the rest is too bad though.. aside from the fact I may have taken my eyeshadow a little too high up! I hope you enjoy the look anyway ^_^
