The Perfect Brow

I’m a little obsessed with eyebrows - I would say it’s actually the first thing I look at on a person’s face (sorry). 

I know my brows certainly aren’t perfect, but they’re generally as perfect as I can get them, so here is a little guide as to how I get my brows as they are.

After doing my foundation and concealer, I’ll take my eyebrow pencil, which is the Rimmel Professional Brow Pencil in Hazel and I will follow the shape of my brows and fill in any sparse areas.

To neaten up the pencil and to set it, I take MAC’s eyeshadow in Omega on a small angled brush and define the edges to make them defined.

To set the brows even further, I comb through my Collection 2000 Colour Lash Mascara in Clear.

Then to define them even more, I outline the top and bottom of the brow with my L’Oreal Lumi Magique Highlighter Pen in Medium and then blend out with my finger.

December Wish List

For the last wish list of the year, I thought I’d share with you some things that aren’t on my Christmas list!

GIORGIO ARMANI LUMINOUS SILK FOUNDATION

Selfridges | £34.50

I first heard this mentioned by Una from The Saturdays on their Daily Mix interview earlier this year, and since then I have wanted it but only on and off, but I read something about it at the end of November and decided that it’s permanently on my wish list and I really want it again now!

URBAN DECAY NAKED 3 PALETTE

UrbanDecay.com | £36

I honestly could not contain my excitement when I found out Urban Decay were releasing another 12-eyeshadow palette into their ‘Naked’ line. I absolutely fell in love with the original Naked palette after getting it as a gift last Christmas, and since then the Naked Basics is on my Christmas list (fingers crossed!) and the Naked 3 is hopefully going to be my next purchase!

YSL BABYDOLL MASCARA

debenhams.com | £24.50

Sam from Pixiwoo used this one of her tutorials and she recommended it saying it was one of her favourite mascaras. I then actually saw it in Debenhams last week and I thought it looked really nice so I thought it just had to go on my wish list! Plus its on sale at debenhams at the moment!

The Winter Edit

For the last seasonal edit of the year, 'the winter edit' showcases some beautiful red hues for this season.

ILLAMASQUA NAIL VARNISH IN UNNATURAL
Illamasqua | £14.50

Wine-coloured shades are perfect for winter and autumn: I like this shade particularly as when it is paired with a gold glitter, it looks super Christmassy and so perfect for winter! In the next week or so I'm going to upload a Christmas nail look using this polish!

MAC VIVA GLAM I LIPSTICK

Maccosmetics.co.uk | £15

Red lipstick is perfect for this time of year because of Christmas; this lipstick is the latest red to my collection, and I think it's slight brown tones are great for winter, in comparison to Russian Red which is very blue.

BENEFIT BENETINT LIPBALM

Debenhams | £14.50

For a more wearable red, Benefit's Benetint lip balm is perfect. It gives a sheer amount of colour and glossiness. It's best applied with a brush rather than your finger.

MAC EYESHADOW IN CRANBERRY 

Maccosmetics.co.uk | £10

I was bought this eyeshadow for my birthday from my friend Kirsten, and though it looks rather scary the fact of red eyeshadow, it is actually very wearable and versatile.
