Emergency - Quickest FOTD stat.

Hey guys, So I was on my way to work today when it occurred to me I had on no make up, 
So I parked outside of work and had a rummage in my bag.

This is the look I created with what I found in there, I had no brushes so it was all applied using my fingers.
It took approx 4 minutes.

As you'll see from the picture, I am on the mend, My eyes don't look as bad as they did in the Etsy review.
My hayfever turned into full on flu. With an ear infection to boot.

Here is the picture,


List of products used.

Elf Essential Brightening Eye Quad in Brownstone
Elf Essentials Brightening Eye Quad in Day to Night
Gosh Velvet Liner in Black Ink
Mac Zoom Lash in Black
Eyeko Fat Balm in Raspberry

I think it turned out pretty good, I only wish I had had an angled liner brush so I could have filled in my brows.

What are you emergency Make Up products?

My Favourite Tinted Lip Balms at the moment

  Hey guys,

As requested here is a picture of my favourite tinted lip balms.


  1. Mac Petting Pink -This was around €17.00 which is quite expensive for lip balm but it has a massive amount of product in it, Think metal tin of Vaseline. It was crazy when I opened it and saw the sheer amount of it, I think I have it for ages.
  2. Mac Strobe Current -This was in a lip stick type application, I love this one, You can't see it here but it has a little bit of shimmer to it. It is discontinued now, (boo!) but I still love it. Can remember the price, I think it was around €12.00 a few years back.
  3. Stila tinted lip stain in Plum - This is nicer for night time if you don't want to wear lipstick as it is a bit darker however I still like it, I got it for about a tenner, it was discounted though. Isn't as moisturising as the others but still good.
  4. Gosh Tinted Lip balm Soft Touch - If you follow me on twitter you'll know that of late I have been obsessed with this lip balm. These are usually around €11/€12 but I got it half price from my local drugstore. It is super creamy and last a decent amount of time.
I tend to have these all around the place for easy application for instance Petting Pink is on My sitting room table beside the remote for the TV. Strobe Current is in my car, Soft touch is in my purse and I have a clear lip balm from Inglot on my keyboard in work. This Inglot one is also very good it just isn't tinted so that is why it isn't above.

On to the pictures.......



Love Love Love these.

Thanks for stopping by.

I Like Adele's Rolling in the Deep, It was stuck in my head this morning.

My Mac Eyeshadow Swatches!

Hey Ladies,

Just putting up some swatches of my Mac eye shadows. 

I find that some Mac eye shadows are amazing while others are a little chalky with not a great colour payoff.
I have Mac show stopper which is a matte brown which I find a little chalky however I use it now as an eyebrow powder at night and I love it, It stays on all night.

My favorite types of eyeshadow from Mac are the veluxe pearl ones, they are really creamy with a shimmer as opposed to a glitter which is great as fallout for me is a real pet peeve. 

Anyways on to the swatches.....


Top row is on top of a primer, Middle row is on top of a white base, Bottom row is on top of a black base.
From Left to right, Freshwater, Parfait amour, Greensmoke and Retrospeck. This is without the flash.
This is with the flash.

The Next Four.


Top row is on top of a primer, Middle row is on top of a white base, Bottom row is on top of a black base.
From Left to right, Twinks, Showstopper, Beautymarked and Flashtrack. This is without the flash.
This is with the flash.

All in all these shadows are fine, I absolutely love twinks. 
What colour Mac shadows do you have?
