Navy Blue Eye Revolution


I’m joining the revolution! Navy blue eyes are one of the latest trends around and I wanted to join in that trend. I made it into a smoky eye look which goes great for my Asian eyes but didn’t want it all dark so added a bright pop of turquoise blue to the lower lashline. 

Apparently I was becoming a makeup snob, only reaching for the higher end makeup in my stash. But this trend brought me back to ground level since strangely enough I didn’t have any navy blue shadows except for one by ELF.
Eyes
ELF Little Black Beauty Book Cool Collection (Main eye colour)
NYX Slim eye pencil in Electric blue (lower lashline)
Mermaid pigment from Halener Rustique (over electric blue)
MAC fluid line in Midnight blues (in waterline)
MAC False Lashes Extreme Black Mascara
NYX eyeshadow on Taupe
I was trying on a new pink with gold shimmer lipstick from NYX but I think these eyes would also be great with a matte red lip.
Lips
NYX Round Lipstick in Indian Pink
LA Colours Clear Gloss
On another note my hair has been driving me nuts lately! Ahh. So what new trends have you been trying out lately? Would love to know.
Happy Navy Blue!
XOXO

  1. Very pretty Naomi. Lol about being a makeup snob. I think I am but only when it comes to my blushes. I almost always use mac or nars. I need to branch out more. I know the feeling about the hair. Mine just would not co-operate. I think its too long but dont want to cut it since it took forever to grow out.

    1. I'm still looking for a better blue since this one had some fallout issues. I hear about Sacha's medianoche or maybe something from inglot. Would love to try an inglot palette!!!!

  4. Love the earrings +eye makeup combo. I've been obsessing over bright colored lipsticks at the moment. Hair-wise, I have a purple -pink ombré going on, but looking to change it.

Revlon Sculpting Blush Palette in Pink

I have never been so disappointed in a Revlon product before… until now! Maybe I chose the wrong colour for my skin-tone but there are so many other things about this palette that makes me think I should have bought some more lip butters instead. Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

Marble Hearts: BCD Nail Art Challenge (Day 13)

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
