HRH Collection Jewelry Pieces

Hey everyone,

I recently ordered some Jewelry pieces from HRH Collections that I'd like to share with you.  I found out about her line of bold & modern pieces from her Youtube Channel.  She often wears her own pieces for her Youtube videos and they look gorgeous on her.  

I decided to order 2 pieces that I think will match my style the most and here are some pics.  

The first one is The Original Cuff which is $50, it is definitely a statement piece yet classic. Picture how it could dress up a great LBD or a simple white T-shirt.



The second one is The Original Silver Cuff which is $50, it is very similar to the first one except in silver.



Both pieces are gorgeous and I can't wait to wear them during the Holiday season!

Thanks for reading

Til the next time...

Sexy Golden Dramatic Eye

Dramatic and Perfect for a night out

Hey everyone,

Hope you are all doing well, I haven't had much time lately to play with makeup. Today, I felt like doing a look for fun. Oh and did I mention it was snowing today in Toronto!
 
This look is very dramatic for my eye shape. I don't really have a deep crease but it did capture well on camera IMHO.



Cut crease with rose gold transitioning to a gold on the lid.

Cool new Nail Polish Over Glaze Nails Inc London

Hey guys,

Wanted to share this new Nail Polish I've purchased recently at Sephora and LOVE! It is the Nail Inc Special Effects Over glaze Polish.

 
As you can see from the image above, it is a kit with 2 polishes. A dark colored polish and a special effect over glaze.  The over glaze is what caught my eye, it totally transforms any polish. To demonstrate.

Here's the dark polish in the kit by itself

With the Over Glaze on Top, see what it does? Beautiful 3D effect with lots of flecks for multicolored shimmers.


It will transform ANY POLISH, here's a blue polish that I already own.


After the Over Glaze
 

I personally think the Over Glaze Top coat looks better with darker nail polishes.  However, it can give a angelic look if worn over a white Nail polish.

Thanks for reading

Halloween Fun

Hey everyone,


I haven't done a makeup look for a while, decided to have some fun for Halloween this year. I dressed up as a CAT for a Halloween party, not a super original idea I know, but it was still a lot of fun getting ready. The cat makeup was inspired by one of MissChievous old video on Youtube.

The hubby dressed up as a Pirate and ACTUALLY let me put makeup on him for effects. :D  Added some eyeliner and mustache to enhance that rugged pirate feel. Here are some pics. 

  







 
Products used for this look can be found on makeupbee.com.

Thanks for reading. Love to see your Halloween looks.

Velour Strike a Pose Inspired look!

This is a follow up to my previous post.  I simply find the names of the falsies by Velour cute and inspiring. Just to name a few, Lash in the city, Are Those Real? Style me Kardashia etc. To see more styles, click HERE.

The pair I have is called Strike a Pose and this is the look I created inspired by the cute name of the lashes. To learn more about the lashes click HERE.

It is an shimmery edgy smokey look! Great for a night out! It is dramatic and makes a statement.

The following will be a Step by Step Tutorial on how I created the look.

For a list of products I used please check out my look on Makeupbee by clicking HERE.



Step 1: Apply Eye shadow primer to the lids

Step 2: Use a pigmented black eyeshadow

Step 3: With a small Shader brush, outline the black outer V shape in the outer corners of the eyes, should look like the following


Step 4: Blend with blending brush, should look like this.


Step 5: Fill in the bare part of the lid with a white cream base with a small shader brush.

 Should look like this:
Step 6: Set the white cream base with a matte white eyeshadow.

Step 7: Tab a very small amount of Glitter Glue to the part of the lid with the white eyeshadow.
Step 8: Apply a white glitter on the white part of the lid for extra sparkle.
Should look like this, the shimmer doesn't pick up that well on photo, but trust me, it shines. :)
Step 9: Finish with Velour - Strike a Pose Lashes

Finished look
More pictures:


Hope you like the look
