It's all about the eyes!

38.

My loves, I feel weird because it's Wednesday and I should have been at work yesterday but I wasn't so I feel like it's Tuesday but it's Wednesday! So because on Wednesday's I don't start work till later on I thought I'd do a quick picture 'tutorial' of my eye make-up which featured briefly in my previous blog. Listening to 1D again...need help!



Those are the four items I have used to have my eyes the way they are today, and it really doesn't take that long. Ignore the Rimmel London eye shadows, I don't know why I added them in the picture :/


Firstly I start off with the base of my make up all done and dusted, foundation, concealer, powder and blusher. I will list the names of the products at the end of the blog for you :)



Right then, firstly I use the Eternal Gold 24h Colour Tattoo eye shadow? eye shimmer? Anyway I literally just dab my finger into the shadow and gently dab that onto my eyelid. If you wait a couple of seconds for it to dry slightly you can go back and add more to build it up so it adds more shimmer.



 I then get the Pink Gold 24h Colour Tattoo and again dab some onto my finger and apply that to the outer corner of the eye and along the crease of the lid. This adds a lovely two-toned colour effect to your eye make-up and those two colours work really well with each other. 


Now this step is purely personal preference because I know not everyone loves eye-liner, I just need to use it, otherwise I look some what ill! I used the Rimmel London Exaggerate eye-liner. I actually used a brush to get my liner like this today, I started applying it in the inner corner and slowly went along the eye line making it thicker and into a wing on the outer corner. I love winged eye-liner! I don't go under my bottom eye line because that can look quite heavy, maybe for a big night out you could try that look for a more dramatic effect. 


Mascara, Mascara, Mascara! You can never have too much mascara...okay you can but shh. I use the Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Retro Glam mascara. I absolutely LOVE this mascara, it really lifts the flashes. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get their flashes noticed by others :)
I apply mascara to both top and bottom lashes. I find by doing this it makes my eyes look so much bigger. Love it!!


 Cheeky close up of my eyes for you there (I was pulling a face from a bad angle)


 And then we are done!! A bit of nude lippy and that's the completed look. Great look for both day and night. I reckon to add a further wow to your eyes, some false eyelashes! 

Hope you like.
Much love

Beth xx

My letter to MND

22. Dear you, I want to start off by saying I don't like you. From the day we have met all you have done is cause pain, you have caused misery! That is all you do for everyone you meet. You find them at their best and demolish their whole being. You break them down to the point where there is no fight left, but they will fight you until the very end knowing they will never win. One day they will win, one day we will all break YOU down so you're not here any more. None of us like you, but you bring us all closer together. You make us realise that we can't go on just floating by, you make us realise that time is the most precious thing any one in the world has got! And with that precious time we have to make as many wonderful memories possible, we have to tackle all the hurdles you throw at us so that you know we will stick together and fight you. I have the displeasure of knowing you, so many others have the displeasure of living  with you. For those I can't i...

Arsenal, Tears and Happiness!

26. We meet again my loves, how ya diddling? I'm good, I have two weeks off work now :D nothing major is planned...oh wait HARRY POTTER STUDIOS and bonfire night, I love bonfire night, the magic of the fireworks and sparklers is just so beautiful. I will definitely try and get some pictures of the fireworks and sparklers of the bonfire I'm planning on going too.  Is it just in the UK we celebrate bonfire night?  I'm currently listening Marmozets - Captivate You, I've heard this band quite a lot on Kerrang radio and just love this song, it gets me bouncing around in my seat. I downloaded their album and it's pretty belting I have to say! It was on repeat everyday this past week on the bus, a definite boost before work.  I don't know if I told you guys that my Dads best friend, Steve, contacted Arsenal (my Dad is obsessed) and explained his situation and how much he loves the team and always has done, and they wrote him back to say they would send Dad...

End of an era

 10 years...10 long but very fast years!! Okay, I admit, I'm late to the 10 year blog anniversary, like 7 months late haha but I've been busy. I can't quite believe I started writing on here over 10 years ago. About my Dad, who has now been gone 10 years as of only a few days ago! Which is mental. This pocket of space helped me a lot back then, and it continued to help a little while after but it's definitely time for me to say goodbye to this space now. It served me well back then, but like we all do, I've grown and found other things now that suit me better. You see, I couldn't express in real life how I felt back then, what I was dealing with watching my Dad with MND. So this was my voice. Then I realised oh wow I can say a lot of things here that I can't express due to fear or embarrassment and general learning things about myself etc. Who knew writing a few words on a few posts could help heal so many broken pieces. I'll always be pretty grateful fo...
