My Ball Makeup

So on wednesday evening I had my Leavers Ball and I thought I would share how I did my make-up and what I used. 

I decided not to use foundation and only used a little concealer to cover up my main blemishes and under my eyes. 

For under my eyes I used Natural Collections CoverUp Stick in fair, this blends nicely and is a simple product that is cheap and does the job. I do have to say however this can be slightly drying therefore is not great on spots.







For covering my blemishes I used another concealer from Natural Collection, this is the CoverUp Cream also in fair. I like the formulation of this product which as you can see (sorry) has been much loved. The only thing with this product is that it doesn't blend too well and can look slightly patchy, however due to it being cheap this can be expected and with patience you can smooth the colour out. 

For my eyes I decided to splash out and wore some fake eyelashes. I really liked the shape of these and they also weren't to big or false looking so as a first-timer with eyelashes I really liked these. The shape and curl really helped to open my eyes and exaggerate them. Overall I loved these and would definitely buy them again. Just underneath these on my actual eyelashes I used Estee Lauder's Double Wear concealer and mascara duo, the mascara is the zero-smudge lengthening  formulation and it does exactly that. I absolutely love this mascara I couldn't rave about it enough, trust me! I put on about 2 coats just to blend my lashes in with the fakes, I chose to use this one just because the wand is long and thin and gets all your lashes. (I couldn't use the concealer that comes with this as the colour is too dark for me)

So after doing my lashes I decided to add some liner just to finish off my eyes. On my upper waterline I used my favourite kohl pencil liner from Rimmel, this glides on so easily and is so pigmented, I just love it! Then on my upper lash line I used a liquid liner to just make my false eyelashes look more real and so that the glue/join could not be seen. I'm sorry I don't know what the liquid liner was as it was my friends and I don't have it :( but whatever it was it was bloody brilliant so I will have to find out! 

 Then on my lips I chose to use a bright lip that practically matched my dress. It was Rimmel's Lasting Finish Kate in 05, I think this colour is stunning, it is a  dark pinky fuchsia colour that really makes your lips pop. I think this colour matched my skin tone well and really finished off my make-up well. The formulation is lovely, it goes on smoothly and is very moisturising with a colour that stays. I think I only topped this up once throughout my night.
