Back to School Look 1 - a touch of blue

Hey loves, hope you've all had a good week? 

Since I'll be going back to university in September, I decided to create a few going back to school looks that'll be suitable for anyone.

 I opted for a blue eye liner to add a pop of the colour to the look but you can use any colour you prefer. On my lips, am wearing Revlon's Smoked Peach lipstick with a Barry M lip gloss on top.  


 I kept the rest of my face fairly simple and nude with a little contouring and Sleek's "sahara" blush on the cheeks.
UPDATE: completely forgot to mention that the blue eyeliner is from the MUA stand at Superdrug.
I absolutely love this look; simple, quick and not over the top. I'll definitely be wearing this to lecture.
To find out how I apply my foundation check out this post.

More back to school looks on the way...stay tuned

xoxo

All Time Fav: Sleek MakeUp's "Sahara" Blush



I go through phases with everything I own, one minute they are hot and next I don't even remember they exist but this blush right here *in my best Tamar Braxton voice* is my all time absolute favourite. I can wear this blush with any look for any occasion.
Sahara is a mid-tone orangey-brown matte blush with flecks of shimmer (does that make sense). It gives a warm glow with a natural finish - like I have nothing on.
As you can see, mine has seen better days; I've had this for over a year now and I haven't even hit pan and that's because It comes with a whooping 8g of product and retails for £4.49 (definitely wasn't that much when I got mine...blame recession).
I think this is definitely a must have esp for women of colour..try it and let me know what you think.
