The Beauty Friend

Hello lovelies, it's been a while, but here is my latest transition video for Halloween! I guess you could call her a zombie Red Riding Hood. I was heavily inspired by the aesthetic of Tim Burton's animated movies.... Enjoy!

Happy Monday, darlings!
Yesterday I was thrilled to do a Marie Antoinette inspired look on the awesome Dom! This is the first time I attempted full, quasi- drag makeup on a man, but I'm happy with how it turned out. Next time we will attempt to block out the brows completely, as in drag makeup but I'm actually loving the contrast here of the feminine and masculine, including the beard and brows.
Dom had showed me images that inspired this look and he left with a long shopping list of products to buy so he can recreate it himself for upcoming events!

Happy Thursday, my lovelies! It's absolutely freezing and we're all feeling that bitter chill at the moment, wrapped up to our eyeballs in layers!
Seeing as my face is the only thing exposed I like to use these days to play with makeup as any chance of feeling fashion-forward in the snow is out the window!
Today I present "Winter Ballerina"... hair up because it's too cold to go out with damp curls, a gentle brown winged liner for subtle definition, and a rosy flush because I never ever blush naturally, ever. 😅
Make sure you continue to use SPF, even in the chill!

Happy Saturday, beauty hounds! How are we all?
Party season is upon us and I wanted to showcase one technique for creating a winged eye on hooded eyes. It's called the BAT-WING, and it looks like a regular winged liner when the eye is relaxed, yet is in fact a graphic batwing when the eye is closed. This avoids distortion of the liner when the eye is in it's relaxed state (as it usually is!). Let me know if you would like a TikTok on this!
I used a brown liquid liner here which is a bit softer in the cold winter light.

Happy Sunday, lovelies! It's been a while since I posted a 'look', but I've been embracing all the warm neutrals for autumn recently and wanted to share this classic reddish smokey eye and a rich n**e lip. I hope you get inspired to delve into your makeup bags and experiment with shades yourselves!
There are so many new brands, textures and techniques that have come out recently, so don't be afraid to get in touch if you have questions need product and technique advice!
