First bloom of Spring!

Thursday, 22 March 2012

I'm very relieved to be able to finally upload my first makeup tutorial for spring.
It's very beautiful and understated- and blue is one of the freshest colours that there is (except for maybe a lime green)
So we most definately should put it on our eyes to signify the new season.

I especially love this look for the afternoon/evening- garden parties and Spring Flings and all other shenanigans that one might get up to on Spring nights!



Let me know if you'll 'dare to wear' a blue eye this Spring- even if you wear blue all the time!

Keira Knightley 'A Dangerous Method' Makeup Tutorial

Sunday, 5 February 2012

I was inspired by the beautiful Keira Knightley to re create the makeup that she wore for the premiere of her new film 'A Dangerous Method' at the Venice film festival 2011. She wore a wonderfully regal, gold vintage looking dress with her hair clipped back neatly in a center parting.
For Makeup she has a wonderfulyl flawless but fresh face, with minimal blush and bronzer. But if you haven't got her fab cheekbones like me then we have to do a lot of chiselling with our bronzer to get the same effect.
For eyes she's wearing a bluey grey on the top lash and a gold mixed with brown along the bottom which looks beautiful with her rich brown eyes.
Couture dream: Keira Knightley looked stunning in the shimmering lace Valentino couture creation as she arrived at the premiere for A Dangerous Method

And here's my interpretation!


Woo! I may be no Keira Knightley, but I gave it my best shot, and perhaps the thick eyebrow is a look that I should be sporting? What do you guys think?

To get Ms Knightley's look take a look at the tutorial I uploaded:
