Thought I'd show you my new hair-do. I've had a trim and a lot of layers put in around my face so that I'll have a lot more of it down when I tie my hair back and she added to the fringe too. I'll be keeping my hair black though. I'm now lemming TiGi Bedhead stuff after she let me smell what she put on my hair lol Here are the pics I showed my stylist (same actress with it tied back and down):

Naughty Strawberry FOTD

Hi all,

Yep, back to purples but I went for pink on the lips and cheeks this time for a chance. I'm shocked at how different Naughty Strawberry looks over a black base. I got complimented in Specsavers on it in fact. Was discussing Sleek with the SA. Also, I'm shocked I'm about to say this but I think I prefer Bourjois Healthy Mix to LM Silk Creme. My skin loves it, a little white to mix and it's perfect and it still looks lovely after a long day (unlike Silk Creme sadly).

Products used:
Face:
-Usual primer
-Bourjois Healthy Mix in 51 with a little Makeup Revolution The Foundation in 1
-Usual concealers, powders and contour product and
-Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked blusher in One For Playing Games.
Eyes:
-UDPP
-Jordana eyeshadow pencil in the black shade
-L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Naughty Strawberry (lid)
-MAC Fig 1 (crease)
-MAC Purple Haze (to blend)
-Rimmel Matte White (brow bone)
-Sleek Eau La La liner in Noir
-Essence waterproof eyeliner pen
-Maybelline Full & Soft mascara and
-Boots Natural Collection Water Guard mascara.
Lips:
-L'Oreal Colour Riche Serum lipstick in Freshly Rosy.
