Incase you missed it I posted a new video on my YouTube all about the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation which has been my go to lately as my skin has been utter crap since Christmas and it's the only thing that guarantees total coverage on my skin. In the video below you will see me apply the foundation and give you a little more information on how to apply this product. If you haven't tried this foundation yet you need, even just get a sample and try it out! You won't be disappointed I promise, so less of the waffling and check out my video below...

For the past few weeks I have been doing the same makeup look...almost everyday. I bought the highly talked about By Terry Ombre Black Star in Misty Rock back in February and have been getting on famously ever since. At €30 its a steep spend for just an eye shadow stick but it is literally the most gorgeous thing I've ever laid my beady eyes on.
Even those who are eye shadow challenged will be able to master this beauty, simply twist it up and pop it all over the lid and either blend it out with a finger or with a blending brush. I find this fades to a soft brown shade around the edges so its not necessary to add any more shadows with it but you can if you want! Once it's on its sets so you don't have to worry about creasing, although if you do have an exceptionally oily eye lid I would recommend a primer before hand.
So I did a little tutorial using this shadow so you could see it in action:

So would I spend another €30 quid for a different colour from the collection? Definitely! My sister also picked up the same shade and gets great use out of hers! So let me know would you spend that much on an eye shadow pencil? Or do you have any dupes from a budget brand I should know about?
I know there was no post on Monday and if you follow me on social media you'll know that I have been feeling under the weather but from my sick bed I have finally been able to edit my latest video....HUZZAH! I have to say I am so excited about this video as it has been my favourite thus far on my YouTube Channel so I am excited to share it with you all.
I am a huge fan of anything vintage so today's video is a vintage makeup tutorial. I will leave a full product list below in case you were wondering about any of the product, shade etc and if I have done any reviews on the products I will link them too. As I mentioned in the video I have got a giveaway coming up and I will be announcing it on Instagram so keep your eyes peeled on there for that.
With all that said lets get into it....grab a cuppa....

I know what your thinking why am I posting on a Saturday night and more importantly why am I quoting a High School Musical song and that's because... my first YouTube video has just gone live EEKKK! I have wanted to really dive into making YouTube videos for some time now but I was always quite hesitant. By nature I'm an extremely anxious person and I am constantly thinking "Oh god, what will people think of me". But since the end of last year I have just changed my mentality complete and to be honest now.... I really don't care what people think and I am going to do things for me. Of course there is always the fear of falling flat on my face but you'll never know until you try and this for me is a new beginning.
And what a better way to get cracking than to start off with a haul! These are all the bits and bobs that I have collected over the last month or so and I have kept them to one side so I could sit down and have a really good play with everything. So here's a few snaps of everything including swatches etc. I will leave you with a list of all the stuff mentioned below in case something catches your eye. I may have missed out on one or two items but don't worry you will see them in upcoming blog posts!
