FOTD: Brunette in Blue


Today I fancied making an effort with my hair for once. I feel I've been so lazy with it lately! Although my hair is thanking me for the break it's had from styling tools.. I curled it using GHDS and sprayed it with Pantene Volume and Body Mark 5 (although next time I'm going down a mark as this makes my hair a bit crispy!) I then tried the plaits that Zoella featured in her video for something a little different.


For my makeup I used:
Collection 2000 Concealer in shade 2 (light)
MAC Pressed Blot Powder in medium
AVON Deep Glow Bronzing Powder
Rimmel London Powder Blush in Winter Glow
Urban Decay Brow Box in Brown Sugar
Urban Decay Naked 3 palette
Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sellout
Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner in Black
Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara
Maybelline The Falsies Mascara
Nivea Essential Care Lip Salve
Maybelline Colorsensational Lip Liner in Sweet Pink
Bourjois lipstick in 10 Beige (think this was discontinued, I stock piled it years ago!)


Face:
Revlon Colorstay Foundation for combination/oily skin
Eyes:
Lips:

Outfit:
Jumper - New Look
Necklace - Tiffany 

This is only my second post so far in March (oops!) But my dissertation is due in March so I'm working my butt off at the moment on that! Hope you're all okay!

FOTD: A Natural Look



Today I thought I'd do a spontaneous face of the day - don't think I've ever done one?! You will have to excuse my poor background! I wasn't planning on taking photos but just had to take advantage of the amazing light streaming through my window! I'm loving the sunny days we've had this week, even if it is still cold! So today's makeup was quick and easy. I had a lot of work to do so didn't want to waste time on it and I'm going out later so it will all be coming off and being reapplied anyway! This is a really easy look though, and feels quite natural to me as I'm not wearing any eyeshadow and for those of you who know me, that happens very rarely.


Face:
Revlon Colorstay Foundation for combination/oily skin

Eyes:
Urban Decay Brow Box in Brown Sugar
Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara
Maybelline The Falsies Mascara

Lips:
Nivea Essential Care Lip Salve 

Outfit:
Shirt - New Look
Necklace - Tiffany

This look is super easy, it gives that flawless skin look but doesn't look like you have gone to too much effort because your eyes are bare. So simple if you're stuck for time or going somewhere where you don't want to look like you're wearing a ton of makeup. 

I'll just mention my hair, I don't usually wear it up, but quickly shoved it up before bed last night and woke up with a messy bun that I actually thought looked okay so I just left it. Bit of a miracle really! I provided a back shot to show the true messiness ;).

What's your go to FOTD when you're in a rush?
