Superbass Inspired 'step by step' Makeup Look

Hello my lovely readers.... :)

Today i'm gonna show you my interptetation of the first look worn in the Superbass Video by Nicki Minaj. Most of the products I used are only available in the UK, so if you live elsewhere... you might have to find dupes.... :)... this look is really easy and fun.. heres a picture of the finished look...


PS. I am not implying that this is exatly the same as the original look. This is an inspired makeup look.



1. Prime your eyelids. For this I used Bare Study Paintpot by MAC.





2. Apply a bright yellow eyeshadow very genourously all over the lid. For extra vibrancy, mix it with water or mixing medium. For this I used a colour out of my Beauty UK Palette.





3. Apply a very thick line of eyeliner and wing it out at the end. For this I used my MUA eyeliner.



4. Apply a light pink colour to the lower lashline. For this I used a pink shimmery colour from my 88 Shmmer Palette.



5. Line your waterline with black pencil eyeliner.




6. Apply mascara and some fake eyelashes and your set to go. See how easy that was :) For the lashes I used the Sarah Harding ( Girls Aloud ) ones. :)




Dont forget to follow my lovelies :)

Where else can you find me ?


Thankyou so much xxx

Real Techniques Stippling Brush Review

Hiya Guys,

So today im going to be reviewing a brush from one of the most talked about brush collections on youtube right now... It was created by a very well known youtube makeup guru who also happens to be a phonomenal makeup artist... YES! ... im talking about Samantha Chapman from PIXIWOO...

So lets get into it ~

The design of the brush itself is very non-practical, the handle of it is very chunky and thick and it is hard to store as it dosent fit in my pot with my other makeup brushes.


But because the brush is of such high quality... I really dont care to be honest. Because of the 'Ultra plush synthetic taklon bristles' , it doesn't cause streaks on your face and blends the products into your skin seamlessly. Ideal for use with cream and liquid foundation , also any cream blushes will be applied amazingly with this brush. Gives the face an airbrused look... You really cant go wrong because it is just so affordable (£10.99 - LoveMakeup.com) and so effective.  Right now im using this with my Maybelline 'the eraser' foundation  and it just gives me such a phonomenal finish( as you can see in the photos ).  I hope you purchase this because it such a versatile brush... theres really nothing it cant do.

Thankyou everyone , dont forget to follow xxx
