Perfect Eyeliner EVERY TIME



Do you ever struggle with eyeliner. I hate it. Eyeliner is the biggest struggle when it comes to makeup. You find the first one goes great and then the stress to get the other eye to match is just a nightmare. However if I don't want the stress this is what I do and I wanted to share with you <3





First you want to take some sellotape and take this on your hand and place it where you want to edge of your eyeliner to be. This is the most important step because if you get this wrong the next steps wont work.

Then with your eyeliner apply this along your lash line and then follow it along the sellotape . Then from the end of the line you've just drawn you want to draw a triangle and meet up about 3 quarters along the lash line. Don't worry about the edge as the sellotape will clean this up.

Then you just peel away the sellotape and you have that clean and sharp line.

Easy Clubbing Makeup Tutorial



Here is a perfect and easy look for going out clubbing. Very simple with a pop of colour to make it a little interesting.

If you would rather watch a tutorial on this just scroll to the bottom :)





First apply a skin toned eyeshadow or powder to the lids to stop them creasing.












Then apply some concealer to the under eyes, nose, chin and forehead and blend that out and set it with some setting powder so there is no creasing here too.

















Back to the eyes. Taking a light greyish brown shade apply this to the crease of your eye as this is going to be the start of the transition. Then with a shade a little darker you want to take a smaller fluffy brush and apply this to the crease too keeping it a little lower that the last shade.
Then with a pencil brush and a darker brown you want to do the same thing again keeping it lower than the last. Also take this on the outer part of the lid and blend it onto the centre of the lid. Then go back in with the fluffy brush to make sure it is all blended.
Then with a light champagne colour apply this on the rest of the lid blending into the outer part of the eye and cleaning up the crease.
You can repeat these steps until you are happy.









Now for the lower lash. Take a light pink shade first and apply this to the lower lash taking it a little low and then with a darker pink shade apply this to the lower lash too making sure not to take it as low.
Then with a very intense blue eye pencil apply this to the waterline.




Now apply a wing to your eyes and then mascara to the top and lower lashes.
To finish of the eyes I would recommend lashes as this helps open up the eyes and helps finish of the eyes.



For the rest of the face apply a contour powder to the hollows of your cheeks, hairline, jawline and nose. To add a little bit of colour to the face apply a pink blush shade to your cheeks.





Now the fun bit HIGHLIGHT. Apply your highlight to the highest points of your cheeks, tip of the nose and also the bridge of your nose.
Also apply a little of the brow bone and inner corner of your eyes.


Finally with a hot pink lipstick apply this to your lips.


And that is it guys what do you think. Let me know if you have tried this look as I would love to see it :) 

Thank you so much for taking your time to read this.

Floating Eyeliner




      First with a skin toned eyeshadow apply this all over the lid and up into the brow.









Then with a light grey-brown shadow apply this to the crease with a large fluffy brush making sure it is blended. Then with a darker brown shade do the same thing but keeping it a little lower than the last shadow.










With a flat brush something where you can draw a line you want to sketch out the outline of where you would normally have your wing and then you can apply the eyeshadow on the rest of the lid and then blend this out.
Then with a black eyeshadow you want to do the same thing keeping it once again a little lower than the other shades making sure to blend blend blend








Then with a glitter liner apply this along the line that you have created and then with concealer apply this underneath the liner to clean up the line making sure it is very clean and sharp.









Then apply some mascara on your top and bottom lashes and then apply some false lashes.









Finally to darken up the eyes a little more apply a black liner in the waterline.



There we have it guys. What do you think of this trend?

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.
