⭐️ LITTLE MIX TUTORIAL ⭐️

Hello Makeup Lovers!

Up on my YouTube channel right now is a tutorial inspired by Perrie’s gorgeous look in the new Little Mix “Touch” video. That song is my anthem right now, I absolutely love it.

Here is a full list of products that I used to create the look:

⭐️ GALACTIC CUTOUT TUTORIAL ⭐️

Hello Makeup Lovers!

So here it is, with the launch of my YouTube channel comes the launch of my assisting blog posts!

Today’s tutorial is a little take on the negative space trend I’ve seen going around on Instagram lately. I have lots of ideas for looks using this trend but this is the first one I came up with and decided to share.

You can watch my video here:

Welcome to my YouTube Channel!

It’s been a long time coming, but as promised it’s finally here!

I’ve been prepping for this day for a couple of weeks now. For months I’ve been saving money to buy myself the equipment to make this channel as good as I’m able to from the get go, and though I still have some things to learn when it comes to my audio and editing, I’m really happy with how this has come out.

As I’ve mentioned before, this blog will not be taking a back seat! I want this to be connected to my channel as much as possible. So, starting from Tuesday I’ll be back to regular posting.

One of my New Year’s Resolutions is to be more engaged in social media, so if any of you have blogs, instagrams, youtube channels, facebook pages etc, please leave them in the comments section and I’ll go have a look at them!

For now, here is my very first YouTube video. I hope you enjoy it. – Ellie .xx

 

Try It Out Tuesday : Gigi Mermaid Eyes!

This week I’ve gone for a tutorial that really caught my eye. It’s a tutorial by Lou Teasdale for THE BOOK CHANNEL on YouTube (which you can subscribe to here) for a look worn by Gigi Hadid. I love that it’s been called Mermaid Eyes, it speaks to me on a deeper, inner level.

I had to get a little creative for this tutorial since I didn’t have a lot of the products, but despite that, I think I’ve managed to recreate the look really well. I didn’t have the blue cream products, however I did have a white shimmery cream product and lots of different blue eyeshadows so it was a case of mixing them together on the back of my hand until I got a colour I could substitute. I could have done with a darker purple for the outer corners of my eyes, but I did the best I could with the eyeshadows I had.

All in all, I really kind of love this look. I would even actually consider wearing this on a night out. I think its fun and funky, unique, but not too over the top. You can tone it down by using less product, or you can go full glam like Gigi’s original look.

Since there’s no fancy eyeliner work and no false lashes to apply (though you totally could), this is a really simple look for beginners as long as you have decent blending skills! I’d love to experiment with other colours for this look, maybe some darker, grungier colours, or even bright citrus colours. The possibilities are endless!

If you give it a go and love it too, let me know. The original tutorial is down below.
