HALLOWEEN LOOK

Halloween is just around the corner and this is the weekend to be going out and rocking your costumes and its also a Bank Holiday Weekend,whoop. Unfortunately i'm sick at the moment and been on antibiotics for the past week,so i'm sitting in boohoo. My sister has headed out for a 30th and i did her make-up for her. My sister decided to go as a Fallen Angel this year (see picture below) and i decided to do a quick run through of the make-up i use on her.

Make-up products i used:

Catrice Cosmetics All Round Concealer the lightest Beige on top of that i put talc powder all over her face.

The eyes i went with Black Iris and Moonstruck i blended that all together. I also put Moonstruck underneath her eyes aswell. The two colours are from the Front Cover palette.

Black Gosh Eyeliner

Eyelashes from the Khroma Beauty Range

Lipstick Scorned from Collection 2000 its from a Limited Edition Range.

Maybe a Fallen Angel is an idea for you to do this Halloween :))

QUILTED LEATHER SKIRTS

Last night I stuck up a picture of Barbara Martelo,who is a Spanish fashion editor for Spanish Vogue and Vanity Fair. The reason I stuck up the picture was because of the quilted leather skirt. I went and checked it out and of course it's out of our price range. The skirt's fashion name is Balmain. I decided to check out websites to see who had quilted leather skirts and at what price. This is going to be a trend for Autumn/Winter and it's not just skirts we'll also be exposed to the leather quilted jacket too.

My Finds :

Iclothing quilted zip skirt 30.00 and it goes from a size 8 to 14

Warehouse Quilted Zip Detail Skirt 60.65 and it goes from a size 6 to 14

ASOS Quilted PU Skater Skirt 47.17 and it goes from a size 6 to 12

They're also available on Nopolka.com for 32.00 and it goes from a size small to extra large. I'm sure if you go looking in your wardrobe like myself you'd come across one. This happened me a few weeks back as i went looking for a outfit for a night out and came across it lol. I got it in Penneys and wore it with a white lace peter pan top. Then again you can say i'm always on trend ;).

MY BUYS

Hey bubbleheads,

I made a quick pit stop in to Dundrum Shopping Centre yesterday and picked up a few small bits in Penneys and i also picked up a present yesterday for Christmas,yes i've started my Christmas shopping, i want to be getting things that people are going to use and not just left to the side. So that's were Boots came in i picked up a 100ml bottle of spray for 27 euro,so to me that's a very reasonable price :). This is only on selected bottles beauties,so if your looking for a certain bottle of perfume/spray it may not be on the offer.

My few bits from Penneys : My Double Pom Pom Hat 4.00 euro 

Sleeveless Studded Checked Shirt 13.00 euro

I picked up 3 pairs of trousers too : Black Baroque Legging 10.00 euro 

Red Brushed Jacquard 10.00 euro

Charcoal Tech Stretch Skinny Jeans 17.00 euro 

That's my Penneys buy from yesterday i'm sure some of yous have these already in the closet. Love Penneys :))

Coming up my piece on cheap quilted leather skirt after sticking up a picture yesterday on the facebook page. This is a trend for Autumn/Winter 13 bubbles.

STEAL HER STYLE JESSICA ALBA

To me Jessica is everywhere now and its more for her fashion style and been a earth mother to her two gorgeous little girls and also a wife. The star fashion style has really grow in years and for some reason always gets it right whether its going to a red carpet event or just been a good old mama. For my steal a style i went with this look once again she got it right with all the latest trends. You get your leopard print,skinny jeans and the plum lips. So my mission was to try and find my own look on this and it doesn't have to be the same as the picture,so here are the items :))

Shirt 

The shirt is 54.14 an it's available at Piperlime.com

Leopard print clutch is from Boohoo for 22.00

Black Supersoft Denim Skinny Belted Jeans 30.00 also from Boohoo,i know her jeans are blue but why not try it with a black pair.

The shoes are also from Boohoo i love this colour jade and the gold heel detail these are 38.00.

So i reckon her lipstick is MAC and i've come across it for 11.77.The colour is Indulge and available from Nordstrom.

So beauties that my take on Jessica Alba look and especially at a cheaper price and again what i said at the top it doesn't have to be the same items that are in the picture. I hope this is a look you'd go for or maybe buy a couple of the items from it :))

BENEFIT SALON

Who's excited!!When sitting in my car today waiting on my sister as she ran into a local business on South William Street. I spotted a bit of work going on in one of the shops. To my further noisiness i looked up to see what it had on the cover that is hanging over the front entry of the shop and it had on it Benefit,yippee. I stuck this up on my facebook page and a beauty got back to me to let me know its going to be a Benefit Salon :o. I went looking because i needed to know more and came across this,its opening on the 18th of October and here is a list of what going to be available in the salon. Are you excited!!

PICTURE EXAMPLES OF HOW TO PUT YOUR BATH POOF TOGETHER

Your tube dress as your base

DIY BATH POOF

With Halloween just around the corner,I'm coming across idea's as to what to dress up as. Always a mind block for me and not only that its always the same outfits i come across each year but this year i wanna be original. So far i've stuck up a couple of pictures on the page one of a mermaid and another of a bath poof. So far you guys are loving the bath poof as i'm chilling here on the sofa i've dived in to see how and what you need to make it.

I've come across two ways of making the bath poof/scrub/loofah what ever you wanna call it,this one is easy peasy :)). First set of materials you'll need 

30 yards of Tulle 

2 feet of rope

1 yard of stretch fabric jersey (matching colour of your tulle)

Needle and thread 

With your stretch of fabric used as your base your gonna start tacking your tulle with the needle and thread. There is no rhyme to it you just wanna make it as real as possible. Use all of your tulle covering the whole dress. Hot glue the rope to your dress. You can hang it at the side,front or use it as a halter to go around your neck. 

Second set of materials 

25 yards of matte tulle

1.5 yards of elastic

1.5 yards of braided rope

Ruler 

Scissors

Tube dress

Start by cutting your tulle into 10 equal length pieces that means each piece will be 2.5 yards in length. 1 yard is 3 feet each individual piece will be 7.5 feet long. Take each piece and fold in half then into another half,so each piece is 0.625 yards in length. Take the elastic and cut one piece out to fit your waist and another piece out to fit you below your bust line. Measure these pieces,cut them out and then just tie a tight knot at the end of each piece. Cut out 10 small pieces of the elastic about 5 inches each. You'll be using these to hold the tulle together that you created in step2 and to tie it to the larger elastic you created in step 3. Now take 1 piece of the 5 inch elastic you created in step 4 and tie it in the center of one of the tulle pieces you folded in step 2 do this with all 10 pieces of tulle and elastic. Take the 5 out of 10 pieces you created in step 5 and tie them to one of the elastic bands you created in step 3. Do the same with the other 5 pieces of tulle and the other elastic band. Once you tie up the 10 tulle pieces to the 2 elastic band,you'll end up with 2 tulle skirts. Take the braided rope and tie it to the top tulle skirts elastic. That will be loofahs hanging rope. Photos have to follow beauties not enough space,sorry and hopeful see this around at Halloween :))

FULL DETAIL ON MY TOP FIVE PRODUCTS

Beauties i just went and stuck up a picture of my top five products i've used throughout the month of September,so here we go beauties here it is in full detail :)

1. Benefit they're Real Mascara for me this is in black and when i'm not wearing the eyelashes this is what i've used. Personally for me when i'm getting mascara's i tend to go for the comb ones more because i feel your getting more into your eyelashes instead of just coating them. That's my mascara i used throughout the month of September.

2. Benefit IT Concealer stick i'm a lover of this now and i have definitely used this throughout the month of September as you can see from my picture below ;). Concealer to me is the magic stick since using it i've noticed major changes in my make-up. Beauties i run this underneath my eyes,around my nose any where i see a blemish and then i blend it in all together with my foundation. 

3. Estee Lauder Day Wear i've actually had this since march it was a present to me along with a few other bits but crazy enough again i've only opened it up at the start of September. Its a day wear moisturiser,its for normal/combination skin it is a advanced multi-protection anti-oxidant creme with a SPF 15. When i was having my make-up free days i use it and it gave a great shine to your face and made your face feel real smooth and soft.

4. Maybelline Red lipstick beauties if you don't know me by now where have you been because then you'll know that red is my colour and for some reason i've always been afraid to wear red lipstick but not anymore ladies this has got used throughout this month and still will even into the winter months ;). If you also don't know but this was my beauty buy i came across this for 1 euro :o. Colour of it is Berry Red which i don't think is still available anymore,so maybe i might have to hold back on it lol.

5. For my final product beauties its my Urban Decay Naked 2 palette again this hasn't been put down in the month of September. My favourite colours from it are snakebite and shopper but i do use the rest and i also do a lot of blending with the other colours like add a light with a dark. I do get a lot of people asking me what was the eyeshadow i was wearing because it looked so good :). You also get a brush with it which helps you with the blending. Lighter colours will be great now for the autumn it'll give you more of a natural look so that will be your bootycall and foxy if anyone has the palette.

Those are my top five products that i used throughout the month of September maybe this can be a regular thing i'll do at the end of each month!! What do we think beauties are these things you have in your beauty bag :))

KIMBERLEY WALSH EYELASHES

Bubbleheads,

I know that these have been around for quite a while as far back as when the girls were all together in their band Girls Aloud but for some reason lately i'm loving and wearing alot of Kimberley Walsh eyelashes. Going to work,wearing them while just hanging out and going out with the girlies. The only other set of eyelashes from the range i've tried were Cheryl Tweedy and for me personally i think Kimberley's are still the best. This range is from the giant makers of Eylure eyelashes and still to this day i've noticed in work they are a really good seller with the girls.

Before i put these on i do cut them to size so they fit more nicer on the eyes. They are so light that you don't even feel them on you. There reusable and contact lens friendly which is good to know as i wear contacts. You do get glue with them but i use my eylure eyelash glue. I now feel why i'm loving these so much is that they are simply on a thread and for some reason i find that much better and easier for the eyelashes to be going on.  These at the moment are buy one get the second one half price in Boots but i picked my up in Lloyds aka Doc Morris. I do have a picture to stick up but its on my phone and my sister has my charger,rage so later when she comes in i'll stick it up. So for me they are a must have in your beauty bag beauties :)))

And as Kimberley says "My lashes give you great length and texture. I love the boost they give to my eyes!"
