Inertia of Beauty

Sunday, 13 July 2014

It hurts me to say this, because anything to do with makeup, I am straight in there. I cannot comprehend how much I love it! But... hear me out, there are a few things that just.... don't mix well with me.... let the rant commence;

1) Blusher just does not work for me! - I curl my toes when people talk about pricey blushers because they don't work for me. Of course, everything works differently for different people, but they just don't do anything. No matter what shade, it still looks the same. Save your money people!

2) Just when you think your liquid eyeliner is looking perfect.. BAM! - the cat flick goes tits up... After finishing a really gorgeous eye shadow look, everything looks beautiful, apart from that funny looking cat flick. Your whole evening is ruined....

3) EYEBROWS TAKE SO LONG - I AM LATE FOR WORK - eyebrows frame the face and if nothing else is, the eyebrows have to be perfect. but before i know it, 15 minutes has passed and only one brow is done, and i haven't even cleaned them up yet.

4) The kohl eyeliner stabs you right in the iris - i am now blind... my makeup is all down my face... or the wooden part gives you splinters!!!

5) Cleaning makeup brushes - I love brand new looking brushes! but they just take FOREVER to clean especially if you mix them up like i do.

What are your pet hates with makeup?

p.s i still love you makeup. its not you its me.

Feeling Pretty In Pink

Hey loves, I recently cleared out my wardrobe and felt like I needed to replace the items I took out, with statement pieces. I purchased 3 items which I am in absolute love with - from the colour to the tailoring. These were an embellished necklace top, baby pink shorts with the matching baby pink blazer. This outfit cost under £30.00 (with my staff discount).

What I love the most about these pieces, is you can wear them for a day and evening look. As well as wearing the jacket for the autumn or even winter. They can also work perfectly alongside other pieces and colours. I paired them with some statement block heels from Primark.

For the makeup I decided to stay shimmery and pink. I opted for something pink, nude and natural keeping it delicate and soft like the look. You can check out the video on how I created the look on my YouTube!

TRIANGL BIKINI REVIEW*

Read post

Hey guys- so today I came home and I had Christmas all over again with packages being delivered! One of the items I was most excited about was my TRIANGL bikini. TRIANGL contacted me and wanted to gift me one of their items from their collection because they liked my instagram. I read the email and was like me?! it was a fantastic feeling! It was posted about 2 days ago and arrived today! super fast! I wanted to do a review and show you guys!

I picked the milly candy pink bikini which retails at $89.00. It's a structured bikini top, moulded with an underwire, with adjustable straps and a back clasp for fastening. It also has hipster bikini bottoms with high curved sides. They're also 100% neoprene, which is like a foamy material! BUY HERE

The service was absolutely amazing. Emma and the TRIANGL team was so friendly, informative and attentive! I cannot fault the delivery. Within a week, I had been contacted, the item processed and delivered straight to my door. Now with packaging, I literally gawped at it for 5 minutes because I was like how amazing! a bikini in a box! I am a sucker for packaging, so this was the cherry on top. Everything is so sleek and sexy!

The product itself - I cannot fault whatsoever. Even the stitching was immaculate. The material is very good quality and fits like a glove. One thing I love about this bikini is how it looks on. I'm confident with my body, but in a bikini im not as confident. But with this bikini, it hugs in all the right places and really flatters any shape. I love the high waist sides as they almost give you an hour glass body! now what girl doesn't want that! It's also extremely comfortable which is great because I hate wearing bikinis that are too tight in a certain area so I feel very self conscious.

Overall, I cannot fault anything. If you want a bikini that will last you a very long time, with such great quality, what are you waiting for girl? Thank you TRIANGL, I cannot explain how happy I am to have the chance to review your products!

New Makeup Brushes! - Delicious!

Oh hey loves! - Im a sucker for makeup brushes, I swear I have an addiction. But I think I may have just got my hands on a set of makeup brushes that can complete your face makeup, Including the eyes, for under £10.00! That's a £1 per brush! They contain:

Tapered kabuki brush - I use this for patting concealer into the skin as well as applying powder to the under eye area because its precise and fits perfectly under the eye.

Rounded kabuki brush - I think this is my favourite brush. I love using this for foundation as it pushes the product into the skin nicely. It's also lovely to apply blush, but I rarely do this as I don't want to have a pink coloured face where its been in the blush!

Angled rounded kabuki brush - This applies concealer like a beauty!

Flat top kabuki brush - This is beautiful to apply foundation, powder and bronzer!

Angled flat top kabuki brush - I don't use this brush as much simply because I use the others more, but its so nice to apply bronzer as its sharp, which gives you a straight contour line.

The smaller brushes are perfect for applying concealer, blending, and applying shadows. Especially cream bases!

I picked up these black and gold kabuki brushes from Ebay! They have matte black handles and a gold neck. The bristles themselves are seriously silky soft. Ridiculously soft! I've had a white handle set before hand and they clean rather well and dry within an instant and always come up as white as they were when I first bought them.
