babydoll makeup tutorial

hey everyone todays blog post is a maeup tutorial. this makeup tutorial is one i have created myself and the name is inspired by a sleek lipstick called babydoll i hope you enjoy and more tutorialswill be  hitting your screens soon wooooo!





1st step eyes

 



you want to start by taking a light pink eyeshadow (sheer one would be best) i will be using the hello kitty duo eyeshadow in kitty sparkle. place the light pink colour all over your lid. next you will need to take a dark pink colour.this is where the hello kitty duo eyeshadow comes in handy again! place the dark pink shade on the secound half of your eyes packing it on. then blend the two colours together you may need to add some more of the light pink after this step as you may lose some of the colour when blending.



 

             2nd step

to finish off the eyshadow we need to make they eye a tad darker this will give the eye more depth and give it a mysterious sexy appeal. so i will be taking dark purple from mua in shade 4 from the pearl collection and i will be putting it in the outer corner of my eye and a littleway into my crease and once again blend the two colours together as if you leave it you will end up with a harsh line between the colours.


 

 

 

3rd step - touch of eyeliner



for the final step for the eyes i will be taking two eyeliners. the first one will go on the lower waterline and i will be taking mua intense colour kohl liner in - snow white. i dont want to put a dark colour in my water line as this will take away from the eyeshadow and make the look to dramatic so by adding a white eyeliner this will just give the eyes a pop and make them look bigger.however i will be putting collection 2000 intense colour kohl liner in - black magic on my upper lash line. i will be applying it very lightley and placing it very close to the lashes i have added this eyelner just as i always need black liner on its just my thing and i feel an alien with out but i have applied it very lghtley so it dosent take away from the eye shadows!


 

4th step cheeks



for my cheeks i want to add a flush of colour which will give me a healthy glow but i want to make it quiet sutle and looking very natrual so it doesn't take away from the eyeshadow i recommend using rimmel london summer fever blush and bronzer as it is very inexpensive and  blends into the skin well and when you swirl all three colours together it gives a very natrual glow which is what we are going for. i applied this to my apple of my cheeks.



5th and final step lips






before i apply my lipstick i will be adding the palmer coco butter formula lip balm it has spf 15 which makes it good for summer but also if you have quiet dry lips like me this is good to put on before you add your lipstick. next i will be adding a very light pink colour on the lips as if you applied a very vibrant coour t will take away from the eyshadow so something that is quiet or nude toned is good for this look i recommend using vivo lipstick in pink pout shade 5. i applied this all over my lips



and thats the finished look i hope you enjoyed and this has give you some ideas for summer makeup speak soon love char - blushingbeauty

my best make up acadamey (mua) products

my best make up acadamey (MUA) products!

MUA is one of my favourite makeup brands of all time not only our the products cheap as chips but there such good quality and there is such arange of products to choose from. so i am making this post to not only to spread the word of mua but  hopefully inspire you to get down to your local superdrug and stock up on mua goodies !
disclaimer - everything i say in this post is my honest and true opinion and i have not been told or payed to say anything.

MUA heavan and eart palette








this product is one of the most highly drugstore palletes to be raved about ever! at just £4 you cant go wrong the colour pigmentation is crazy.the palette  consists of 12 shades and range from light sand to chocloate brown colours and is great pallete for a causal daytime look but also a very smokey sexy evening look. this palette has alos been called a dupe for the faous naked palette but at a fraction of the price!








MUA blushes                                             




MUA blushes only cost £1, yes thats right £1 ! now your probally thinking well if tere a £1 there probally going to br ubbish and not worth paying for ? but you would be wrong these blushes are hidden gems and you must try them! they have a very large colour range from baby pinks to dark reds so there is blush for everyones skin tones and personal tastes! They are very pigmented so you only need to apply a small amount which means the product will last a long time,yayayy,but the good thing about these blushes you can start with a very sutle healthy brush of colour to the cheeks but alos build it up to make a vibrant pop of colour to the cheeks ! 






MUA lipgloss







The MUA blushes must have to be my favourite product from the whole brand as like the blsuhes they are £1 !! i know you probally think your dreaming right?! haha, but anyway i think the packaging looks very proffesinal and expensive the colour pigmentation is out of this world as you can see from the image below! you also get loads of product - 14ml
i think the colours are so beautiful and will look great voer a lipstick and even better on their own ! the formula isnt sticky or runny !







so..i hope this post has inspired you to go out and stock up on mua goodies ! mua is a brand whic is exclusive to superdrug but if you do not live in the uk you may be able to purchase them on the superdug website.

thanks for reading my blog i hope your all well and have a lovley day
