Purple glitter smokey eye ❤

The last tutorial I did I got amazing feedback so I thought I would do another one this time more gothic and with glitter.  I hope you enjoy reading and find it helpful.

• Before any smokey eye I always do my eyebrows first just so I have a better idea on how my make-up with look complete
• Apply tape from the end of your eyelid to the end of your eyebrow and apply a eye shadow base or colour correcting concealer 
• Apply your usual crease colour lightly, this step may seem pointless but it makes everything look better later
• With a black eye liner pencil roughly liner line your lid and add black to the outer lid, it is hard to explain but you can see it in the picture.

• Blend the eye liner with a brush and it should blend to a light black/grey colour, don't be tempted to rush and add more black straight away just keep on blending until you have a nice transition 
• Once you have fully blended the eye liner slowly add black to the crease and blend, build up colour slowly until you have a solid black and blended crease
• Pack a deep purple eye shadow on your lid, don't worry about fallout that can be cleaned up later
• Blend the deep purple and black together to make it look seamless
• You may thing this all looks a mess right now, trust me it will look fine soon!

• Peel off the tape and clean up all the fall out with make up remover and apply your foundation.  Try and pick a foundation what gives you a flawless finish so all the attention is on your eyes and not any imperfections
• Add a line of glitter glue then purple glitter to your lashline, any fallout can be brushed away
• then the rest is up to you! contour, blush and lipstick is all up to your personal taste but I decided to go with light contour, peach blush and deep purple lipstick with a black lipgloss on top.

Harley Quinn Cosplay Makeup ❤

As you all know I am a little bit of a geek and when I had the opportunity to do a Harley Quinn look I just had to do it. If you don't know who Harley Quinn is she is character from Batman, she is The Jokers girlfriend and is featured in these video games; Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City and others.

As you can see the look isn't the typical Harley Quinn makeup, I wanted something what looked evil but sweet at the same time. Special FX wax can be used to make the chelsea smile look more 3D and more realistic, I didn't use any this time as I did this late at night and I wanted to see if I could create it without any fake blood or FX wax.

Products used;
Revlon Colorstay 
Illamasqua concealer 
Illamasqua gel eyeliner in black 
black eyeshadow 
NYC eyebrow pencil 
essence matt lipgloss in red
MUA lip laqure in atomic 
illamasqua eyeshadow in heronine 
ELF HD powder 

Would everyone be interested in a in-depth tutorial in this or any other cosplay or even Halloween makeup please comment below or tweet me your requests and I will do my very best. 

Ombre lips tutorial ❤

I have been asked a few times how I do my black and red ombre lips so I thought I would do a little step by step guide in how I do it and what products I used.  

1. cover your lips with your foundation, concealer or lip eraser, this step isn't essential but it may help clean up later on!
2. line your lips with a black lip or eye pencil and add extra black to the corner of my lips
3. apply lipstick straight from the bullet or with a brush and blend the colours together with your lips 
4. clean up is optional! if you want a precise look you can go back with your concealer brush and some concealer and clean up the edges
5. next step is personal choice, I love to add gloss with any ombre look but that is totally up to you.

Products I used;

Jelly Pong Pong 2 in 1 eyeliner & shadow pencil in black

MAC Ruby Woo lipstick 

Gerard Cosmetics lipgloss in Candy Apple

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, let me know if you try it out!

July beauty & non beauty favourites ❤

I can't believe we are in August, this year is going way too fast and once again I have many beauty and non beauty favourites but I will stick to showing you four of each. 

Beauty Favourites;

Revolution redemption palette iconic 3 ❤ when the naked 3 palette was released not that long ago I told myself I will not be buying it due to the price and the fact I was unsure if I would use the palette so when I found out I could buy a dupe for just £4 I snatched it up and fell in love! the shadows are easily blendable and highly pigmented and I will be buying the rest of Revolution naked dupe palettes.

NYC beautifying blushable cream stick in 002 never sleeping pink ❤ since I now have mastered the skill of cream contouring (well I think I have) I thought I would move on to cream blushers and this is my favourite up to now, it is super creamy, easily blendable with a hint of shimmer! perfect for the summer months.

Revlon Colorstay Foundation ❤ during the summer I have stopped wearing foundation, I have been sticking to concealer and BB creams on my problem areas. I got a little bored of light coverage so I tried my Revlon Colorstay for the first time in over a month and I have fallen in love with it again! The coverage is amazing and it makes me look like a flawless porcelain doll.

Revolution blush palette in Hot Spice ❤ this palette has eight shades consisting of shimmer and matte blushes, merged baked blusher and merged baked highlighter all coral toned and beautifully pigmented.

Non Beauty Favourites;

Destiny Beta ❤ If you know me or follow me on any social networks you will know I love to play video games. I have been waiting for Destiny to come out for so long, I have had it pre ordered for months and finally the beta was released and I have truly fallen in love with it, and I can not wait to play it again in September.

Brunette hair ❤ during the month of July I have been wearing my brunette wig a lot more, I am not sure why but I am loving being back to my natural hair colour, but don't worry I will always love ginger hair and plan to get a new ginger wig very soon.

Art ❤ I have been a lot happier recently and I'm really enjoying painting and drawing. I have a very unique way of painting, I like to make pretty things look ugly and weird, not everyone will like my art but I enjoy it.

Twitch ❤ I have finally started to live stream video games! I'm still pretty new to it all but I am slowly starting to like it, I will be streaming at least once a week and I will be on camera so everyone can see and hear my terrible Mancunian accent. www.twitch.tv/CloeAnne follow me to see my past broadcasts and for notifications on when I am live!
