Powder before foundation?

So, Wayne Goss is an MUA who does videos on YouTube, I absolutely love his videos! I love that he loves Julia Davis and does impressions of her in some of his videos. One of his recent videos is a foundation tip. The tip is to apply powder before your foundation but after your moisturiser for a matt finish and to extend your makeup wear much longer. I thought I'd try it out and see how it worked out for me.

When I first applied my foundation at roughly 10am. I used Estee Lauder Doublewear and used Ben Nye Banana Powder underneath and a light dusting on top.

At roughly 3pm. I was a tad shiny but nowhere near as oily as I usually am at this time.

I always get more oily on my nose than anywhere else

And this is when I returned home at roughly 10/11pm. The lighting isn't too great but I was quite surprised because I wasn't as oily as I usually am after a full day of wearing makeup.

So all in all, it's a very good tip! I will be using it in future but I think that I will powder during the day with it because I did get a bit shiny and I don't like that.

Thank you for reading!

Horny little devils!

So I recently bought some horns. Like I'd seen them around and all of the places that I looked for them weren't the right ones. I've always seen them in black or red  and I wanted green and purple ones to match my hair because most things that I own are purple or green. I'd seen some that were like £5+ and I'm not about that life. So I digged around on eBay and found these babies!

They are reasonably priced too (99p!) with free shipping. However, they're coming from China so they did take a while to get here. I ordered them on the 8th of March 2014 so that was 11 days ago which I think was pretty fast seeing as they were coming from China. I've sometimes had to wait a month for things to arrive from China.

Anyways, here are mine!

I ordered them in green and purple and they pretty much match my hair exactly. I ordered two pairs so that I could have 2 different colours because I wanted them to match my hair :3

The only thing that's odd about them is the clip:

I've never seen this kind of clip before so I was a tad confused but I figured it out. Just note that if you're going to use these, don't push them against your head to close the clip because it hurts a lot and it doesn't close the clasp. Just find the clasp of the clip when it's positioned in your hair and close it, it's a lot easier.

In conclusion, I really like these because they're very cute and they match my hair very well.

Purty things

Long time no blog oops.

In my spare time (like I don't have loads of it) I like to make things all glittery and whack gems on them. I started off just doing my lighters as I thought they looked really boring and I had loads of glitter and gems and stuff doing nothing. 

Something that I decorated recently is a photo frame that I put a photo of me and Amy in. I made one for Amy too but it had little gems in between the hearts. I redid it twice because I didn't like how it
but here's the one that I have.

And today I did my old phone case which is like a lilac colour and looks too boring. I'd like to have a different one that's more 'appropriate' seeing as my current one is a mostly nude Bettie Page. 

And one of my lighters

I keep on leaving glitter all over the place oops

I have a glasses appointment tomorrow and I want to get some new glasses. I want big square glasses like Tsukimi from Princess Jellyfish but I still want to keep my current glasses cause they're cat eye glasses

I'm still trying to get used to my giant HP mug that mum got me for Christmas. It's the equivalent of 2 cups! I have to put 2 tea bags in it and takes me like an hour to drink but I love it :3
