Little Mix - No More Sad Songs - Leigh-Anne Makeup Tutorial










First you want to prime your face and then apply your foundation all over your face making sure not to leave out your neck. Then with your concealer apply this to your under eyes, chin, forehead and node to highlight your face and get rid of any dark circles. Then as you applied liquid to make it last all day you want to set this with powder. So you want to apply a lose powder where you applied your concealer then just any powder everywhere else.




Then with some bronzer you want to shape your face as Leigh-Anne has a very structured face. So to do this you want to apply this to the hollows of your cheeks, hairline, jawline and nose.


For the brows she has very straight with a slight bend to them so just do them however you would normal if you want to.

 For the eyes she has very watery- shimmery looking lids so just apply a light pink shimmer shadow to them. If you want it to look wetter you can wet your brush a little.
Then for the rest of the eye you want to create a wing with your shadow. First I used a pink shadow and applied the brush on the outer corner and brushed it up in the wing shape. Then you want to make your purple shades darker as you get nearer to the lash line to give that transition.
So for me I used 2 more purple/plum shades and then finally with a black right on the lash line making sure to blend all the colours together so there is no harsh lines.
Don't be afraid to use smaller brushes as this will actually be better so you have more control


To make the eyes appear larger apply a cream pencil or white to the waterline.





Now apply your mascara and lashes to your eyes. Leigh-Anne has very long lashes which also help open up your eyes.



For the lips apply a plum lipstick and then go over with a dark purple plum shade.

Burnt Orange Smokey Eye Makeup



Here is the perfect orange smokey eye. Very easy to recreate and looks amazing on any eye colour or shape.
There is also a video tutorial if you want to watch how to do it.



First you want to make sure there is no foundation in your eye creases. Once thats sorted apply a skin toned shadow all over the lid to the brow.

Then with a orange eye shadow apply this to the crease and outer part of your eye making sure it is soft and blended. Then with a darker brown orange do the same step but keeping it a little lower than the orange.
With a pencil brush and a dark chocolate brown shadow you want to apply this on the outer crease of your eye and then with a fluffy brush blend this out and keep repeating this step until you get it to how you want it.










With some concealer you want to clean up the crease making it a little sharper. So take this to the crease line on the inner part of the eye and then with the light cream shadow apply this over the top of the concealer. Then with the orange you want to apply this to the outer part of the eye and blend that into the cream shadow.





Now we want to go onto the lower lash to bring the full look together. First with the orange apply this to the lover lash line and then the brown directly onto the lash line.



Then you want to apply a wing to your eye making sure you take it up to the brown crease shadow.


Now with a orange highlight you want to apply this to the inner corner and the brow bone.


Finally apply some mascara to your top and bottom lashes and then some falsies.




If you want to see a video of how I got the look then it is below

My First Smear Test - Cervical Screening





Today I had an appointment for my first ever smear test and OMG it was so scary. Not the actual thing but the lead up was horrible.

Right so, when I got the letter my heart sank and I didn't know how to feel. I was scared, worried of what was going to happen and also worried about what the possible outcome could be.

So back to today. Sitting in the doctors I started to feel a little anxious waiting for my name to be called. 10 mins late a lovely lady called my name and we waled along the long corridor to a small room.

We sat down and she started to ask me questions about my health bladdy blahh then making just general conversation which really helped me forget about what was about to happen.

Now the difficult bit. I then lay on the bed very awkwardly and then she put this tube thing in my vagina which feels really weird. Not how you would think it would feel. Just pressure and moving about. Then with this brush they need to scrape the cervix. I will say this doesn't hurt it just feels horrible and cringy. I felt like I could hear something which didn't help how it felt. I would say this lasts about 10 seconds. Feels a little longer but i promise not that long ha.

Once this is done that is it you are all done. I did bleed a tiny bit but that is normal and I felt really strange in the bottom of my stomach but that soon faded.

Now I am just glad that this is over and wont need to do it any time soon (hopefully)

Please don't hesitate in getting this done. It take 5 minutes of your time and it could save lives. This is so important weather I get good or bad news. At least if its bad I have time to change things and its not too late.

Sorry for the personal post but this needs to be spoke about more. Thank you so much for reading.

Bold Lip & Simple Eye Makeup Tutorial


Here is a great look perfect for everyday and even a night out. Perfect for beginners. If makeup scares you a little then this is perfect to recreate.

Can I say perfect anymore haha.

Easy and quick. Hope you like it
<3





First with a skin toned shadow apply this to the lid up into the brow making sure there is no foundation in the creases of the lid.


When your eyeliner you want to apply a dramatic wing on your eyes. I also take this right into the inner corner.

 

Then curl your lashes and apply your mascara and false lashes too. I find lashes are great with liner as sometimes your natural lashes can be a little lost with just mascara.




Now with my fav lipstick/pencil right now. I applied my NYX Ombre Lip Duo Pencil I applied this to my lips. Any ombre bold pink lip will do.



Finally with a little bit of highlight apply this to your inner corner and this will open up your eyes and brighten your inner corner.



If you want to know how I got this full look there is a video tutorial below.



What do you think of bold lips?
I feel its a nice easy option. Can never go wrong.

How To : Contoured Lips



I love contoured lips. Its a great way to get bigger lips without a needle. It is also great to get a different sort of look and very easy. 



1. Apply your left over foundation over you lips to give that even base.


2. With a highlight you want to apply this to the cupids bow.


3. With a darker lip pencil you are going to want to outline your lips and the shade in the outer corners of your lips and also bring the lines down your lips on the cupids bow.


4. Then with the lighter lipstick apply this on your lips.


5. You can then add more of the darker pencil in the same places if needed.


6. With a contour powder you want to apply this under the lower lip. This will create a shadow and make the lower lip look bigger.


7. With some lip gloss apply this to the centre of the lips to give that highlight.



Have you tried contoured lips? What do you think?
