❊ TAG: 50 Random Facts ❊


Hello!

Since I've picked up a bunch of new subscribers in the last month or so, I decided it might be fun to do the 50 Random Facts tag, and it was! It was also harder than I expected, and around question 30 I started really having to think hard about things you guys might not already know. I can't remember everything I've previously said, of course.


If you have precisely 4 minutes and 18 seconds to spare, take a break and learn 50 (new) things about this Aussie mama!

Thanks for watching, and don't forget to subscribe! ;)

✬ #EOTD | Dramatic Pink ✬


This is one of my favourite looks; I just love how it turned out. Of course, this isn't quite the average, every day look one might to wear to the office, but it is super fun and pretty and if I worked retail in one of those funky boho stores, you can bet I would wear this there.

For this look I used the BH Cosmetics Party Girl palette and the Urban Decay Naked palette.


How:

1. Prime the lids with Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Barely Beige
2. Using the BH Cosmetics "Party Girl" palette, I took the brightest pink and packed it all over the lid
3. Using Urban Decay Hustle, I swept it into the crease and concentrated on the outer-V, building the colour until I was happy with the depth
4. Taking Dark Horse, I concentrated that slightly in the outer-V and lightly into the outer crease
5. I used Sin slightly in the inner corner and Wet'n Wild Brulee under my brow arch
6. A pair of Ardell #105 lashes and black liner finish off this look

✬ #EOTD | Urban Decay Naked ✬



How:

01. Elf eyelid primer all over the eyelids
02. On a crease brush, I swept Hustle into the crease and into the inner corner
03. Same crease brush, I blended Buck above the crease and into Hustle
04. Using a flat shader brush, I took Sin and placed it on the inner third of my eyelid
05. Same shader brush, I took Toasted and put it over the remainder of my eyelid
06. On the crease brush, I used Darkhorse and placed it on the outer-V and the outer crease
07. On a fluffy blending brush, I took Virgin and swept it under my brow arch
08. Same fluffy brush, I took Half Baked and put it over the tear duct
09. With a clean blending brush, I blended out all harsh lines
10. Using a felt tip eyeliner, I lined the top of my eyelid and did a kitten wing
11. Using a smudger brush, I smudged out the harsh black line with Creep
12. I tightlined with Physician's Formula Shimmer Strips pencil in black
13. Using Urban Decay Perversion, I lightly coated my lower lashes in place of mascara
