LOTD: Week 2

Post does not contain any PR gifted products.  Post contains affiliate links, marked with * (which can earn the blog a small commission on purchases made). I'm back with my second 'Lip Of The Day' weekly round-up, catch my first post here if you missed it and if you're new to my blog altogether, welcome.  Here, I post which lip products and perfumes I've been wearing each day.  A little reminder that these posts are currently weeks behind and that I do sometimes wear older makeup (unless it looks or smells icky), as I like to use my products as much as I can.  That said, I tend to reach for balms, oils and glosses these days which happen to be more current.  I wear perfume throughout the day and most nights put on another before bedtime.  EDT stands for Eau de Toilette and EDP is Eau de Parfum. 

Life Lately: Week 1

Post does not contain PR gifted items.  Post contains some affiliate links, marked with * (affiliate links can earn the blog a small commission on purchases made). Following on from my previous posts, "Life Lately" is my new blog feature (written weekly), basically summarising my week.  It's a mix of everything in my daily life; music, TV, what I've been buying, perfumes I'm wearing, how I'm feeling etc.  As I mentioned last time, it took me a long while to get here, writing posts again, so these blogs are now old(er) news, but as I'd already done the groundwork for a lot of them, I figured I'd start where I intended.  I may catch up somewhat in the beginning, but because of my M.E., I'd like to always remain slightly behind, so I have room for manoeuvre, should I need it.  Hopefully these posts will encompass all the topics I specified I wanted to discuss in that introductory post.  Let's go!     What I've been doing;  I finished this c...

Monster High Monday: Physical Deaducation Ghoulia

Image
Hello and here's this weeks 'Monster High Monday' featuring gorgeous Ghoulia, all ready for 'Physical Deaducation' from the classroom line. The makeup was relatively simple this week as there was just one eye colour and no highlighter and I knew exactly how to get the lip colour by combining a couple of lipsticks. Underneath her super cool glasses, she's wearing a dark smokey eye which is actually an olive shade. She has the usual winged look and liner. I get to have blue eyes again this week, which are nowhere near as disturbing as Clawdeen and her yellow eyes last time (not keen to revisit that anytime soon). Her lips are super bright and I immediately knew I would need the power of the 'Nicki Minaj' lippie for this job! They are actually red, so I thought I could combine two colours for the perfect shade. As usual there was no blush on this doll, so I used it sparingly on my own face as I look dead without it! I'm still tr...

Monster High Monday: Home Ick Frankie

Image
It's 'Monster High Monday' again! Barely feels like a week between posts and yet it's been a fortnight since I last posted. This week it's the ultra cute Frankie Stein from the classroom themed collection, she was Home Ick! I gave her Ghoulia's spare glasses, so she's even cuter! Beneath that she has one green eye and one blue, bolts in her neck (no prizes for guessing who she's the daughter of) and green skin. This doll, has a white shimmer shadow base, with a pale, dusky blue over the lids and along the lower lashline. Her lips are bright red. After taking an eternity to decide which doll I would choose for MHM today, I rather liked my final decision. I thought it would be easy to find an eyeshadow dupe (it wasn't and took me trawling through drawers of palettes and so on), but the application and rest of the face was easy enough. As always, I've managed to switch my eye colour (twice the work to do this week) to match my d...
