True Romance

Good evening and welcome back!
Wow it's crazy how quickly Wednesday came around again!  I have found that in most of my tutorials I have made the look all about the eyes and often neglected the lip.  A bold statement lip can really 'make' the look so tonight that will be the main focal point.  I have done a soft romantic pastel eye as pastels are a massive trend this spring. For me tonight's look conjures up feelings of romance and absolute femininity so I hope you will enjoy <3

Products used in the video:
Eyes: Mac Da Bling (criiinge) Eyeshadow on mobile lid (large flat brush), Bourjois 05 Rose Vintage Smokey Eyes Palette medium dusty pink colour in crease (Mac 217 blending brush),  Darkest mauve colour from the same palette in the "V" of the eye (sponge tip applicator that is included in palette) and under lower lashline (slanted angle brush),  Chanel Ligne Extreme in Onyx Noir, Loreal Lash Architect mascara in Midnight Black (called it false lash effect in the vid, my bad!)
Lips: Mac Mahogany lip liner, Sleek Mystic lipstick <3, Sleek Pump It Up gloss
Cheeks: Myface Paradiso Pink blusher (Chanel 4 blusher brush), Mac Silver Dusk Highlighting Powder on cheekbones and browbone (fantail brush)


Normally I find Wednesday's to be very mundane but today has been lovely.  The sun was shining in London, I got a free Starbuck's latte this morning with my name on it (spelt right!!!) and then I caught up with my lovely boy Fulvio on my lunch break and he treated me to another latte so it's fair to say I have been buzzing all day!  Now I'm just chilling with Lou in our matching onesies about to watch one of my favourite ever films, Ghost <3




I hope you enjoyed tonights look!

Have a fab rest of your week and take care of your lovely selves :)


Peace and Love

Alessia
