The perfect makeup for New Years eve.



Hi Everyone
           With New Years Eve being just a day away I thought  I would share with you 4 of my favourite party looks to see in the new year. Of course with it being New Years eve there is going to be loads of shimmer and glitter, but if your not into using alot of glitter I will also show you guys a few alternatives.


first up is a glitter smokey eye using purple/berry tones, my eyes are brown so I find that purple shades really make them stand out, but of course you can add the colours that suit your own eye colour. I have added individual lashes and some gel liner to finish the look. On my lips I have used a matte lipstick from sleek in the shade fandango.


Next is this ultra black smokey eye, this is one of my favourite night time looks, its so glam and super sultry, perfect for the party season, Here I have used peach tones to blend out the harsh edges of the black to soften the look and have added a pop of gold shimmer onto the tear duct for an extra little bit of sparkle, ( it is New Years Eve after all.)
 With this eye make-up being so dark I have chosen not to add black winged liner, instead I have popped black eyeliner pencil onto the water liner and blended this onto the lower lash line, To finish  I added a few individual lashes and a tiny coat of mascara. On the lips is have model co in the smitten.


My Next look is this shimmer spotlight eye. Here I have used brown tones as transition shades, added darker tones of brown to define the crease then added this stunning pink/gold shimmer shadow from makeup revolution's naked underneath palette onto the centre of the upper and lower lid only to give this spotlight effect, again I finished off this look with some gel liner from benefit and a few individual lashes. On my lips I have Stila in the shade Anna.



Last but not least its This show stopper, this is a glitter cut crease using the same pigment from the first look only I have applied it with some lash glue to keep in place and to give it an ultra pigmented look, I have darkend the crease with a black shadow and blended it out to soften the look. I used eyeko fat liner in black to create a gorgeous winged liner then added false lashes and a coat of mascara to make this look extra glam!! on my lips I have Face of Austraila in the shade Urban Spice

It's all Hippening


A few months back I pre-ordered a Ban.do Agenda/Diary from Hippenings, which is an on-line shop that sell all kinds of Awesome party swag, original and alternative wedding decorations, wedding favors, and of course Amaze-balls paper goods, gifts, party headgear and tonnes more, all run at the helm by the stunning Laura Cunningham (@cunninghamlaura) . I  know I may sound a bit crazy to some of you , but this Agenda is thee best thing I have ever set my beady eyes on ,to any-one out there who has got their hands on one of these , You will know exactly what I am talking about.
From cover to cover this Agenda is filled with stunning artistry, cute little compliments, fun stickers and then some!!

I ordered the Ringleader 17month Agenda, but it also comes in the Florabunda style as-well, which is just as beautiful and also has an identical interior. these Amazing little pieces of heaven retail for 27.50 euro from Hippenings

There is not one page inside this Agenda/Diary that I dislike,  I bought this for the purpose of my wedding planning but I have yet to set pen to paper as I don't want to spoil it in anyway ( tiny bit crazy).
 I love the silly little compliments dotted about here and there aswell as the inspirational words of encouragement on the monthly starter pages.


One of the most awesome parts of the ringleader is the cute secret code
at the very front of the Agenda ,The little secret pocket at the very back and the hilarious "hair washing decision page" is also up there with one of my fav things about this Diary.


Included amongst these fine pages is a list of all the fab artists that have designed each monthly header along with each one of their social media handles, be sure to check them all out.


The fact that it came with a hand written thank you note from Laura herself really gives this purchase the perfect finishing touch and makes it that bit more personal.
I don't want to spoil too much for those yet to purchase, so I won't share too much.


If you guys haven't checked Hippenings out yet, Firstly where have you been?,  and secondly please do, I am sure you will be just as hooked as I am with everything on this site.
I hope you all are having a fantastic day, but for now its love, hugs and kisses from
