I've aways said I could never fall because I love them all.

 

Phew...  These only took me over 2 hours to upload. Not kidding! - So enjoy!

Summer fresh!

Ok so I'm out in the archipelago for 3 weeks and the Internet here is extremely poor. It depends a lot about the weather believe it or not! But as I'm typing I can't get a single web page to open and here I'm sitting with a bunch if great pictures on my laptop that I can't upload and post. Just to be safe I just snapped a few selfies as one does anywhere everywhere anytime and all the time. So for now it's gonna have to do with just these iPhone pics. #gottalovequalitypictures

Shades of Grey.

Ok, I was running out of light. And fast. So didn't have time for anything more complicated. But who ever said simplicity isn't beautiful?

I’m not really looking for another mistake.

Sorry guys I've been running around like crazy today and I'm busy this evening so can't promise a makeup post for today. I've got my basic face on as always. But to make it up to you somehow I super quickly snapped a few pics of my outfit. I've cropped out my head as the light source was as wrong as wrong can be, giving my face shadows that was beyond anything flattering. Believe me I'm saving all of your eyes! However this is a bit unusual of me, but thought to try it out. This blog will most certainly not become anything else and will remain a makeup blog but I might upload an outfit pic or two every now and again.

I'mma be a fortune hunter.

Here's todays Lipspiration! Enjoy.
I've used Naked Cosmetics shadowcollections;
- Twilight TW04 & TW02
- Ebony EB02 & The second label has been worn out but it's a medium soft purple from the same EB collection.

Don't forget to drench your lips with clear liploss!

I got that Coca Cola bottle shape, But how much Cola can your body take?

So here's the look I've promised previously of my beloved eyeliner turned lipliner. I love this shade on my lips. Adding on just a slight hint of it, smudging it out and adding a peachy, orange-y, nude or clear lipgloss on top. luvluvluv.
However as I've mentioned in a previous post, I've never ever actually used this on anything but my lips. You can see some of my other looks wit this MUA Makeup Academy Intense Colour Eye Liner in Bright Orange included here, here and here.
I'm loving the Ombre brows!

This look converted into something a little bit more people friendly and a little less photoshoot would be amazing on the beach! Think, just the bright eyeliner only using a bringht orange eyeshadow, mixing it with Make Up Stores mixing liquid making it almost completely waterproof and applying it for a solid non smudgeable eyeliner for a sweaty and wet beach sesh. With just a tad white eyeliner on the waterline to brighten up your look, some lovely coral colour on your cheeks and a glossy or glittery nude lipgoss ! Ohhh I'm winding myself up. CAN'T WAIT to do this look now !!

Oh and one more thing before I let you off my rambling.. Orange is such a strong contrast to blue. So all the blue eyed ladies (and gents ;) ) out there, holla !! - This will makeup your blue eyes POP!

When it comes to lovin' I ain't chasing you .

Second 'Look of the Day'.

So after training and obviously showering I needed to do something quick as I ran out of time. I will try to squeeze in some time for some more creative, BOOM - type looks ey-sap!
I choose not to do them after the little one's bedtime in the evening as the lighting by then is so poor that is such a shame to have created something amazing either technique wise, colourwise of both, and the  the lighting washes most of it out and it won't show in the pictures. I might do photography as a hobby but I don't have a studio at home I'm afraid. I don't even have studio type ligthing or any type of lighting that would be suitable for this type of photography.


As previously stated in my last post, if someone in,-and or around Helsinki fancies being made up for free, either with me having free hands over your face or you wanting something specific, give me a shout. Or just politely and quietly reach out to me though the comment box on the right hand side. Whichever you prefer. I'm loud myself so I enjoy both equally loud ones and giving my poor pretty ears a nice break with some calmer types too...

But they will never get to the heart you hold inside.

Easy. Simple. Quick. Soft. Just how I like it.
Need some models to be made up (In Helsinki area). Interested? Then contact me through the comment box on the right-hand side.
