Chrissy Teigen Sun Kissed Glow

Not ready to accept the fact that its no longer summer? Me neither. All the more reason to make the most of that post-holiday tan and go for a bronze goddess makeup look. Here I will be showing you how to recreate a sun kissed bronzed makeup look, inspired by Chrissy Teigen. 

Follow the steps below to copy Chrissy's makeup...

(For this, as my model I used my friend Anna who is naturally very tanned. If you have very fair skin like me, a fake tan is probably going to help this look work better for you.)

Apply a liquid foundation. Once dry, apply a cream highlighter down your nose, on your cheeks and anywhere you want to bring light. Add a setting powder afterwards to keep everything in place.Take a large fluffy bronzing brush and sweep your bronzer across the forehead, along the cheekbones and over the chin. A bronzer with a hint of shimmer will be best.Apply a matte brown eye shadow over the entire lid. Then, apply a shimmery gold/cream eye shadow along the crease and lash line.Draw a very thin line of  bronze/brown shadow across the upper lash line to act as an eye liner. Do not flick out at the edges. Do the same along the lower lash line and layer the bronze shadow in the outer V to create a more intense colour.For the lashes, you can use false lashes or you can simply apply several coats of mascara.Apply a nude lipstick and a shimmery gloss and finish by using a brow pencil to fill in your eyebrows.

And, you're done!

Tanya Burr Lashes!!

After Tanya released her nail polish and lipsticks earlier last year, I was SO excited to see what she would do to widen her range. It was of course lashes! I have many friends who love to wear false lashes on a daily basis, and i always get jealous of how amazing they look, so im trying these out for a change. These lashes are SO lovely for every day use, and i cant wait to see what they look like. Tanya created six incredibly beautiful different styles, a pair to suit everyone! They are all so lovely, and HUGE bonus that they are so affordable too, picking up each pair for £5.49.  I was only able to find three pairs, but will definitely be on the hunt for the other three in my local superdrug! (I can see these becoming a slight obsession of mine)...

Below are the three pairs that i picked up, I LOVE THEM!!!

If anyone has any recommendations for natural daily lashes for me to try out, please leave a comment!

Perrie Edwards Inspired Makeup Look

Inspired by Little Mix's Perrie Edwards i decided today that i would re create this gorgeous yet simple look. it really is as easy at it looks! With the use of just two eyeshadows and your daily brow and foundation routine, this look is all yours. 

To start, apply your foundation, powder, contour etc; and grab and champagne and a burgundy eyeshadow, (I used Charlotte Tilbury Quad in Dolce Vita) Using a fluffy shadow brush, apply the champagne shade all over the lid for a subtle glow. Apply the burgundy shade with an angled shadow brush for a more precise application. I started by drawing the outer flick and ran the excess product along the upper lash line.  Layer the burgundy for a more intense colour pay off, concentrating mainly on the outer corner. Use the same shade along the whole of the lower lash line and blend with the fluffy shadow brush used previously. Lastly, apply your favourite mascara and you're good to go!

how easy was that?!!

Effortless glam in a matter of minutes
