Beauty Tips


This being my last week of holidays, I have been lazing around the house and sitting on my laptop all day. This has lead me to somewhat of an obsession of late; beauty blogs.
I have just started Project 10 Pan, and I allready have a massive wishlist. Because I'm not allowed to buy any products, they seem to be all I see and think about! At the moment I am trying to make the best out of what I have and play around with some products/looks that I don't usually use.
So, here are some of  my favourite beauty tips that I've recently discovered from some of my favourite beauty blogs.

Temptalia's brow filling tutorial - I have never paid much attention to my brows, but Zoe Foster made me rethink. I haven't had my brows waxed in a very long time (preferring to just do it myself) but upon watching Christine's tutorial I went and tried filling in my brows, using her method (I especially loved the suggestion of using my angled eyeliner brush). The first time I did it I  was experimenting with which eyeshadow to use (and used one that was way too dark) but now that I have found the right one I am starting to love it.

Zoe Foster's amazing winged eyeshadow tip - again, something I tried for the first time today and I love it. So easy and it looks great.

Temptalia's tutorial on contouring and highlighting your face - being somewhat of a beauty novice I never knew about this but it's so easy to try. I also love this tip on highlighting your brow bone (I love Benefit's High Beam).

Finally, a trick that I only juse picked up on is using eyeshadow wet as eyeliner. I find this a lot easier than using normal eyeliner, and its also a great way for me to use up some of my darker eyeshadows that I use sparingly.

Let me know if you have any other beauty tips!!

  1. I read a tip on Zoe's blog at primped about mascara on your bottom lashes. Basically you hold the wand against the lashes very lightly and blink - which coats your bottom lashes with mascara without you having to get all fiddly. I've been doing it ever since!
