Beauty wishlist

Here are some beauty things that I really am lusting after at the moment:

• New BareMinerals powder foundation : this is pure love, and it works sooo well!

• A darker, berry - coloured lipstick, this one in particular is from Nars, but any would do. I think a darker lisptick is really pretty for fall if you just stain your lips with it lightly.

• A new bronzer/blush to liven up my skin that is going to get paler and paler by everyday.

• Moroccanoil : My hairdresser used this on me last time and it made my hair so incredibly soft! So I'm going to get me some of my own, I think I'll order it from amazon, where its a bit cheaper. A great tip for you guys who have thick, frizzy and curly hair :D

• Too Faced natural eyes palette: This palette has the most gorgeous eyeshadows ever and i really want some new shades.

Anyways, its not like I'm going to get all these things..but one could dream :P

Fall makeup look! (quite picture heavy...as usual..)

So today I thought I'd try something a bit different. Thought I'd do somewhat of a tutorial- guide to this makeup look. It's a really simple fall look that really incorporates those warm fall colours. (Btw. The reason my skin is red in certain pics is because I had an allergic reaction to a soap I used earlier today :S) Here we go:

1. I primed my eyes with my isadora Eyeshadow primer, then I applied a dusty pink colour all over my lid ( from Chanel trio in "Tamises") and a dusty rose colour on the outer half of the lid (bareminerals loose shadow in "rose")

2. Then I applied a gold colour on the centre of my lid (from my pashion palette) and then a medium-tone brown in my crease and a dark matte colour in the outer corner (from same chanel trio). Then blended well.

3. Lined my upper lashline with gel liner (Maybelline eyestudio - best eyeliner ever!). Then lined the outer rim of my water line with a brown eyeliner. Curled lashes and applied Maybelline ONE BY ONE mascara.

4. Applied maxfactor bronzer on my cheeks, and a raspberry pink lipstick on my lips (the colour is not this bright in real life).. maybelline lipstick in "Hollywood red."

5. Voila! Pweettyy!

 Hope you enjoyed!
Next time I'll probably take pictures of the stuff I used, but I forgot today. This was really difficult because pretty much the only disadvantage with having your room in the basement is that I only have one window ( a small one, quite high up...) and not much natural light, which made this quite difficult to make. I'll go upstairs next time :)

ELF Makeup (eyeslipsface.com)

eyeslipsface.com

I'm makeup obsessed and I always want to spend all my money on new beauty-goodies, which would get verryyy expensive if I decided to act on my makeup buying impulses. But recently a lot of my everyday makeup has been running  out and I now have a good reason to buy my otherwise uneccesary makeup.

So I've known about Eyeslipsface.com for a long time but I've never really checked it out. So recently I went on their site and I found some really interesting things that I'd like to try! And their stuff is soooo cheap! So I won't feel tooo bad about getting a lot! haha. I've heard mixed reviews about some of their products and it occasionaly happens that you're sent a bad product or a makeup brush where the handle isn't properly attatched. But for the price that you pay I think their stuff is definatley worth checking out.

I think I'm going to place an order from them very soon because I'm out of my favourite mineral foundation and I really need a new one! Some other things I want are mineral eyeshadows, the mineral blemish kit, The complexion corrector, Their concealer, some of their brushes etc.

Have you guys ever ordered from ELF before and if so, were you satisfied?
