FOTD: Lilac & Lavender

 I recently purchased the "Fresh Amour" lipstick from MAC & wanted to incorporate it into a look. This lipstick is such a unique lilac colour so I paired it with a purple smokey eye to match.

Breast Cancer Inspired

At work this past weekend we had a charity event for the Look Good Feel Better Foundation for women with cancer. As you all know this is very close to home so I did a pink look in honour of my mom. I did more cranberry like tones around my eyes to make it a little more flattering because pink usually gives my eyes the illusion that I cried all day or that they're very irritated.

FOTD: Olive Eyes

Im so sorry Ive been away for so long. I will have a post updating all of you on my life soon, just be cautious when reading it... there will be a heavy topic throughout that whole post. As for this look, this is one of my everyday eyes. Yes its a little dramatic for everyday but the only time I do basic natural looks are when Im pressed for time or just dont feel like doing much that day. This colour combination is one I go to alot, its actually perfect for green & hazel eyes. Enjoy!!

FOTD: Copper, Blue & Purple

I forgot to take a picture of my makeup with my eyes closed today because, as always, I was running late again lol. Cut crease looks have always been my favourite but I really dont specialize in them so Im going to start doing MANY more just so I can get better. They are harder than basic blended looks but with practice I'll be able to master them! :)

FOTD: Smoke & Bubblegum

 This is another silver smokey eye featuring bubblegum pink lips. I wore this look to work today & I loved it so much. Basic smokey eyes are classic & go with every skin tone, hair colour & just creates a simple sophisticated look that can easily be amped up for nighttime!

FOTD: Plumage Blues

This is just a REALLY QUICK fotd post. I wore this to work yesterday & I didnt have enough time to take a bunch of photos so I snapped this one right before I had to leave just for you guys! This look actually got me tons of compliments, which surprised me because I thought it might've been a little strong against my peaches & cream complexion. I am not a fan of wearing lipstick or lipgloss to work, mainly because my hair gets stick in it on the way there. At work I paired this look with Benefits new "Benetint Lip Balm" which is a nice cherry red colour (identical to their original "Benetint").

Kelly Osbourne Look #1

I never really realized how different Kelly Osbourne & I look until I put our pictures side by side lol. This is a complete recreation of her look. I even attempted to do my hair like hers but sadly I dont think all the hairspray in the world would create volume like that with my fine hair.

FOTD: Smokey Neutrals

 I've been on a neutrals kick lately. I find them to be the most simplest looks to do & they flatter my eye colour very nicely. Neutrals also dont clash with whatever Im wearing. Today Im going to dinner with James & his friend. Dont mind the slightly bluish tone to the eye photo. It was extremely red hued so I tried to fix it but this is as good as I was able to make it.
