Beauty on a Budget: Makeup Academy (MUA)

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

I'm back again today with another requested beauty on a budget video.

The brand I have picked for this tutorial is MUA. It cost me €23.73 to create this entire makeup look.

Another fantastic brand that has high quality products at an affordable price!

I decided to squash this tutorial in the middle of my Halloween videos as I thought it might be helpful for anyone back in school. I had actually purchased more products than shown in the video with the intention of using them, however I just didn't find them to be any use. All the products I have used in the video are ones that I enjoy, some pricing as little as a pound!

If you are looking for some new beauty bits that are cheap as chips, I hope this video will be helpful to you :D

MUA Smokin Palette (£6.00/€7.49)

Mermaid Halloween Makeup | Wearable Version

Hey Everyone!

Hope you all are well :)

I'm not going to lie, I've already started a countdown......49 days!

Today marks the start of my Halloween tutorials which I am so excited about. I've been counting down the days for far longer than I would like to admit, eep!

I've a few exciting things happening over the next few weeks, some of which will bring a few changes but I'm excited none the less :)

A mermaid makeup look has been highly requested over the last little while so it seemed fitting to have this as my first Halloween tutorial of the year.

I'm not sure if I will have a Halloween tutorial up every Saturday because I'm starting back college on Monday... #finalyearproblems

But, I will have at least three more Halloween videos up this year.

Stay tuned for those!

Urban Decay Naked Palette 2: Night Out Smokey Eyes

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

Last week there wasn't a write up on the blog. I didn't think it was necessary being that the video was a video review of a product, all of the information was in the video! As quite a lot of enjoyed that style of video it will be something I try to do every so often. It is more time consuming than a regular makeup tutorial which is why I won't be uploading them too frequently. However, next Saturday I do have another review video but that will be my last for the next little while. Unfortunately I'm starting back college soon, I just wont have the time *sigh*.

Anyway, todays tutorial was another highly requested look. Well actually I kind of merged two tutorials into the one today, killed two birds with the one stone and all that jazz! Another one of my most highly requested looks are ones involving the Urban Decay Naked Palettes. I think I have....5 tutorials maybe? Using palettes one, two and three but when a tutorial is this highly requested I cant ignore it ha! So many of you wanted another tutorial using the Naked Palette 2 so here it is.

Along with that I know a lot of people wanted a night out/date night makeup look, this tutorial is my interpretation of that. 

With all that said, I hope you enjoy the look I created and as always the tutorial will be linked at the bottom of this post :)

How to: Perfect Winged Eyeliner!

Hey Everyone!

Hope you all are well :)

Today I have a tutorial on probably one of my most highly requested makeup looks to date, winged eyeliner! A tedious task for a lot of ladies and gents but I think once you have a technique and you practice it, it'll eventually become second nature to you.

There are probably hundreds of eyeliner tutorials on YouTube at this stage. The reason I created this look, along with the fact that it was so highly requested, was because I've never seen anyone create winged eyeliner like I do. I'm hoping thats not a bad thing haha! I honestly find this way to be fool proof, I use a series of dots to create my winged liner shape before filling it in as you will see in the tutorial. Eventually, once you get into the swings of things you won't need to create your outline using dots. You might not even need to start off using a felt tip pen :)

Products Used:

Eyes

Essence Felt Tip Eyeliner Pen

Essence Liquid Ink Waterproof Eyeliner 

Ardell Natural Lash 117 Black
