Dita Von Teese Inspired Makeup Look.

Hey lovelies!

I was inspired to do this post because I honestly just love Dita Von Teese and she's just so beautiful. She makes me want to buy loads of corsets and waist train and be just the perfect pin up beautiful lady that she is, haha! Anyways, I seen this photo in particular:

(Sorry for the NSFW photo)

And felt like I had to do a look inspired by it! Obviously it's not going to be exact but that's just life and I added highlight where she didn't and I kept to bronzer rather than adding blush, purely because of personal preference.

Anyway here is the look I came up with:

I obviously had to add the trademark Dita beauty mark and red lip :)

I used:

Anastasia Dipbrow in Dark brown to outline my brows and fill them in slightly, then Illamasqua's Browcake in Gaze to fill them in more because Dita's brows are incredibly beautiful and thick and dark, I then used a very pale shadow all over my lid once I'd primed it to highlight the brow bone and set my primer - I used MAC's Orb for that. Then I highlighted the brow bone more with a little bit of Shroom by MAC. I then went in with Makeup Geek's Shimma Shimma in the inner corner and MAC's Wedge in the crease, I made sure to thoroughly blend it out so there was no harsh lines and Makeup Geek's Peach Smoothie mixed with Orb again just above the crease to make sure it was blended nicely. I then lined my upper lashline with Illamasqua's gel liner in Infinity. I used Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation in Ivory and Collection's Lasting Perfection concealer to get rid of some imperfections. Then going on to the lips (cause I just couldn't wait tbh) with Jeffree Star's Redrum liquid lipstick. I then went in with Anastasia's Contour Kit to bronze up my complexion and finally MAC's Soft & Gentle MSF to highlight my cheekbones!

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed! :)

I quite liked doing a celeb inspired look so maybe look out for more of these in the future!

Golden Soft Cut Crease.

Can I just start off this post by saying Illamasqua retweeted this and I've never been more excited in my life?!

Anyway, hello lovelies. I decided to do a post on a look that got a lot of attention late last year and since I love it so much I figured it was worth a mention on here.

This is the look. For it I used:

Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade in Dark Brown
Makeup Revolution Ultra Cover and Conceal palette in light

A gold eye base (Don't know where it is so can't say what it was, sorry)

Illamasqua Pure Pigment in Furore

Makeup Revolution Salted Caramel Palette

L'Oreal Superliner

Soap & Glory thick and fast mascara

Illamasqua Skinbase in 5

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla

Anastasia Contour Kit in light

Velvet Teddy MAC lipstick.

For this look I started off as always with the brows and cleaned them up with concealer before moving on. I layed down a base of concealer, setting it with the palest matte shadow in my Makeup Revolution palette and then highlighting the brow bone with the palest shimmery shadow. I then went on to use a light orange/brown transition shade, further darkening it with a darker brown. I then used my gold eye base and then pressed Furore by Illamasqua on top of it. I made sure the pigment was how I wanted it to be before going back in with my dark brown eyeshadow to 'cut' the crease. I done this until I was satisfied with how it looked, making sure to continue blending along the way.
Afterwards I done my liner, foundation, lips, mascara and contour before finishing off the face with a mist of a facial water just to bring all the powders together and make my makeup look more dewy.

I really loved this look and can't wait to try do this with more colours.

I hope you enjoyed this post, thank you for reading!
