Silver & Black is the colour of the Night

Another weekly tag by Aqeela 'Going Out' Theme and I went for something I have never tried before.  It may not something I would go for but it was fun to create something different than just a usual smokey eyes. 
Overall Products I used:
  1. Primer:  Illamasqua Matt Primer
  2. Foundation:  Illamasqua Skin Based Foundation No. 8.5
  3. Concealer:  Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Emerge
  4. Blusher:  MAC in Immortal Flower & Bobbi Brown in Peony
  5. Highlighter:  MAC in Hush
  6. Eyeshadow:  Bobbi Brown Smokey Eyes Palette
  7. Eyeshadow Base:  Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Hollow
  8. Eyeliner:  Maybelline Gel Studio Liner No. 01 Black 
  9. Lip Gloss:  Chanel Pure Shine Long Gloss No. 67 Caprice
  10. Eyebrow:  Illamasqua Eyebrow Cake in Gaze

 Step by step: 


Prime the Face
Prime the lid using Illamasqua Cream Pigment - Hollow
Using Brown Pencil Liner to create the winged shape 

Silver along the Front lid stop where the brown pencil started
Fill and Blend the Winged area with Black shadow 
Add the Ice Blue in the inner eye leaving the silver in the mid lid untouched
To add the intensity of the Black top it with the Black liner and lined the eyes
Mascara and Eyeliner along the bottom and top eyes and Make sure to clean all the fall out 
Primer & Foundation
Contour


Blush, Highlighter & Lip Gloss to finish the Look ^^
Alternative look using Hourglass Opaque Rouge Lipstick in Edition - this lipstick is water resistant and last the whole night!!!
I tend to go for smokey eyes and nude lips for a night out!!!  However after discovered Hourglass Opaque Rouge lipstick, I think I might switch to use them instead as they are water resistant and last for at least 14 hours - Fact!!! 
You can go for even more dramatic by adding false eyelashes to add that extra boost ^^

October Purchased

Image
Can't believe that it's November already, Xmas is just around the corner and 2012 is nearly over.  So far October has been a fun and relaxing month for myself and I just want to share what I have bought and my current must have in my make up bag ^^  I have been wanting to try out Too Faced products and have been hearing the rave about it.  Don't get me wrong, I love my MAC, Coastal Scents and Bobbi Brown eyeshadows.  However, I felt that Too Faced Eye Palette is convenient if I am travelling or just going for a night out without having to bring so many different colours in one bag which is quite annoying sometimes.  So, my plan was only to buy one to try out but I ended up buying the whole range except the romantic look (arrghhh annoyed with myself sometimes).  I bought all palettes from Boots Piccadilly Circus apart from the Natural at Night range as it's sold out everywhere.  You can get them from Beautybay , beauty and hair website where you can get mostly every

One outfit + 3 different style of shoes

Day off and sun shines are something I couldn't asked for more.  I started off my day with a great workout at the gym, before heading out to meet up with a friend.  I decided to wear my new top that I bought from ZARA which is currently on sale.  I have never been a big fan of 'knitwear' because I always feel that knit material can look unflattering on me.  However, I decided to give it another try and to be very honest I am actually loving it.  The cut is flattering and I want to look very casual on my day off, therefore I mixed it with a pair of Jeans, flats and a hat that I received from my friend, Kate Michell.  I also decided to plait my hair because it was too hot and humid. Due to the unpredictable weather in London, I never forget to bring a cardigan just in case if it gets cold all of a sudden.  I love this outfit because I think it is very versatile as you can wear it from day to evening without looking too casual or too formal.  In addition, this outfit is
