Me? Wearing colour???

Every once in a blue moon, I put down my neutral palette and pick up something colourful. Today it was a beautiful shimmery blue/green that I've had for years. Unfortunately it is unbranded but it's such a rich colour ugh I love it.
I tend to wear colour mostly on my lips as most of the time I have my glasses on so there's not much point in doing colourful makeup.
I used a shimmery white by MUA for my inner corners and added depth to my crease using an unbranded dark blue. 

For my liner, I used Illamsqua Precision Gel liner as always. 

My lashes are Red Cherry #48 and #28 that I cut up and stuck back together. 

I dabbed Shocking Pink on my lips by Barry M to add just a little bit of colour.

I really like doing makeup posts but I usually keep my makeup the same most of the time. But when I do my makeup different to, I will definitely post about it!

Thanks for reading :)

Minimal makeup

Today I just had to run a few errands but I still wanted to put on some makeup. I didn't really want to do a full face of makeup because I'd be taking it off when I came back. So I opted for a more 'natural' minimal look.


I used Barry M Flawless Matt Finish Foundation as it's a very sheer foundation and a decent shade match for my skin. I feel that it still looks very natural on the skin and allows your skin to show through. However, I've noticed that it contains some red pigments in that tend to streak on my skin sometimes.

Then I just put on some B. Makeup mascara. I rarely wear mascara as I just can't seem to get on with it (as well as bronzer and blush grr) because I feel it just serves no purpose other than make my lashes all clumpy due to my lashes being dark already. But seeing as I had no other eye makeup on, I thought I might as well.

I filled in my eyebrows with an unbranded grey eye shadow. I prefer grey as I think black looks too harsh and grey has more purple tones in which matches my hair. Plus I think it looks a lot softer. I finished my brows of with sweep of GOSH brow gel to keep them in place as they tend to look unruly sometimes.

I think it's very easy to buy vegan and cruelty free makeup in the UK because Superdrug has it's own brand as well as being a major stockist for other vegan and cf brands.

I then finished off with some Crazy Rumors lip balm in Spiced Apple on my lips. I love these lip balms and they have a great wide range of flavours. 

Thanks for reading ^.^

Blah, my first day of college

It wasn't too bad I guess. I talked to Lydia and stuff which was good. She bought me lunch though, I really hate people buying food for me.

I knew most of the stuff that they were teaching me so I was like yes gawh. A lot of people kept on complimenting my makeup throughout the college which proves that Gyaru always works! I got to to someone's face as well which was nice because people rarely let me do their makeup tbh.

I went out last night with Sam and Adam which was nice. We went to this 80's/90s club and we felt really young because we were singing Whitney Houston but Cyndi Lauper came on so Adam was happy haha. I also saw Josh from Obscure Pleasures in there and had a bit of a fangirl moment oop.

When I got in, the cat was lying on a towel and I was 'talking' to her when I was taking my makeup off which made me giggle a bit because she started meowing like she was interested.
