Re-creating Rihanna's hair...

Hi All!!

I may try and re-create make-up and hair looks occasionally. So here's the first look that inspired me:


My hair is nowhere near as nice as Rihanna's (which sucks) and i didn't want to cut it so here's my take on Rihanna's curly mohawk..

Side View: I pinned the sides of my hair back with bobby pins

Strike a pose!!

So what do you think? I hope you like it peeps, i tried my best!!

Old FOTD circa: 2005/2006

Hi all!

I dug up some old photos of make-up looks i've tried a few years ago and thought it'd be worthwhile posting them on here! I think i'll post some old FOTD on the odd occasion instead of putting them all in one post. I've listed what i am wearing in each photo, i still wear the same foundation etc, i guess you stick to what you know best eh?


♥ This was a random experiment with a different look on my day off university i suspect? I went to town that day and got quite a few compliments. However i've not done this look since, which i think i will be trying out again soon.






Eyes
- MAC Electra e/s
- MAC Cranberry e/s
- Clinique Sugar Sugar as highlighter
- Benefit Bad Gal Lash Mascara
- Benefit Bad Gal Liner

Face
- MAC studio fix fluid
- MAC studio fix powder
- Natural Collection Blush

Lips
- Dior


♥ I absolutely love this look, this used to be my signiture look.. i don't have any of the eyeshadows im wearing in this photo at the moment, which is rather odd so i will definately be adding these to my shopping list!!!!



Eyes

- MAC Goldmine e/s

His Top 5 Essential Beauty Items!

So i was talking to my guy, Richard about my blog, and i wanted to know what his top 5 essentials are when it comes to his appearance. I asked him what he feels he needs to use everyday to make him feel well presented or whichever term he wants to use before he leaves the house. Here is the man in question:





Top 5 Essential Beauty Items



1. Toothbrush and Toothpaste
- For fresh breath


2. Face Wash
- Usually Neutrogena, Clean & Clear or T Zone, but he's not fussed because he generally has good skin (im jealous mines terrible). This makes him feel awake and clean.

3. Face Cream
- His fav is Olay.... no really im being serious!! He likes he way it feels on his skin and how smooth it makes his face.



4. Body Cream
- Palmers coco butter and no other cream will do!



5. Aftershave
- Emporio Armani and Paco Rabanne are his current favs.





So there you have it, my fellas top 5 essential beauty items! I think these are reasonably items and I know he uses these on a daily basis. I think things like shower gel go without saying really, but I have to say I was expecting him to mention hair oil for his scalp as he has cornrows but hey im not going to argue with his picks :D


'His top 5 essential fashion items' post will be coming up at some point in the future so watch this space! But for now I want to know, whats your fella's top 5 essential beauty items? Leave comments lovelies!!
