OOTD, FOTD

Happy Saturday everyone. Hope your all having a nice weekend. Yesterday I had a birthday in fact all of May is full of birthdays. It wasn't a big deal we just all went to town and had a meal.

Anyway to the good stuff. This is what I wore! 

My jumper is from Penny's. I love this jumper is amazing. Really comfy too. I did have a sting top under the jumper a red one to bring out the lips. 

I wear jeans all the time. I am not a huge dress fan. These jeans I think came from Tesco. 

I bought these shoes in Penny's. They are the first pair of shoes in that type that I ever wore. The first day that I wore them they didn't seem to be very comfy but I live them now. 

My matching chain and earrings are Newbridge Silver. I thought it would look nice with the red lips 

My make up was very unoriginal but I like the soft look. It was something quick I came up with. Start using my Naked palette again. I used the first 4 shades in the palette. 

I hope you all enjoy this post. 

Thanks all for visiting!!

YouTube

Hey everyone. Today I am going to tell you why I haven't uploaded a video to YouTube in so long. 

Well it's like this, my laptop is simply dead. I can't charge my laptop, it won't even turn on. This was coming for a whole but I didn't think that it would happen so fast. I don't have the money to get a new one. My boyfriend had a PC but he does videos too and it's not so easy to do both if our videos on one PC. 

I still have my IPod to make my videos on but that's not good enough as I need a laptop to edit my videos. 

I really miss making videos for all of you. Since I having uploaded anything I really didn't watch any videos. In a way I miss my favourite beauty gurus like JulieG and Beauty Broadcast. I will have to start again. 

I didn't really buy much make up either. I really need to start again and make myself feel better. 

I hope you enjoy reading my post. If you would like to read about anything specific please let me know.

Fashion videos on keek

It feels right odd to write a post after so long. I haven't been making YouTube videos as I don't have a laptop to edit on.   At the moment I  trying to save for one. 

While I am saving I have been keeking and its lots of fun. For you that don't know what it is, it's an app ( keek) you make a 36 second video. 

I have been doing outfit of the day and if course other random ones. If you would like to check out my keek search for : crazy_chrissie 

On a other note yesterday I bought some nail art so I will be posting my nail art that I will come up with. I am really excited to start making my own nail art. I will also be posting it on keek. 

Thanks for reading

Fall Mak-up Look 2013

Hey guys. This has been my first ever Fall make up look that I have tried and have been rocking for a few days now. I don't know it's very festive and I love it. Its not like me to be wearing orange eye shadows but I have to say that I really like this look. :)

For this look I have used my Blank Canvas Cosmetics 88 Matt palette. I love this palette its the best thing that I have purchased in a long time.

EYES

•  I used a light brown just above my crease so that all the other shadows will blend much better. 
• In the crease I used a medium brown to define my crease and blended it to make it very soft and barley there.
• On the lid I used an orange and packed it on to make it as vibrate as possible.
• In the outer 'v' I used a dark brown to define it more, also blend as you go.
• For the liner I used my Collection liner pencil to soften the look and blended it out.
• For a hightlight I used a light peach shade 

FACE

• For foundation I used Rimmel Perfaction in Ivory
• Then I just contoured my face with some bronzer I didn't apply any blush
• Applied some hightligher on my cheek bones

LIPS

• For my lips I used a nude lipstick by Rimmel Birthday Suite (not in stock any more) and a bit of lipgloss also by Rimmel called Lick Your Lips. (not in stock anymore)

Thanks so much for taken the time to read my blog

First Imprssions: Collection Supper Size Mascara

Hey guys, so I know I haven't wrote anything on my blog for so long, but I just didn't have the time.  Today I come to you with my latest video that I just uploaded on my channel. I did a first impressions on the Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara and I got a lot of views ( for my channel it was a lot of views) so I thought I'd do an other one. This mascara isn't new I don't think its my first time every buying anything by Collection or Collection2000 as it was known as before it changed.

What attracted me to this mascara is the packaging and that its a thin tube. So the brush would be think too. I didn't write a review of the Rimmel Mascara but if you would like to see my first impressions of that video click here. When I opened this mascara the brush is slim and a very traditional brush. Not much product come on the brush which I thought would be a good thing, but in fact its not that great. I had to apply like 3 to 4 coats of this mascara before it looked anyway decent.

hope you all enjoy it, love you all

Blank Canvas Cosmetics 88 Matt Palette Review

Hey everyone, so I wanted something from Blank Canvas for some time now but was always putting it off and about a month ago I decided that it was time to get a palette. The main reason for getting the palette was that I wanted to do a tutorial for the 4th of July but it didn't come in time. The day after it came I was going away camping in Killarney for 2 weeks.

Blank Canvas is an Irish online cosmetics company. They sell  all sorts of palettes, brushes. The only thing that they don't have is foundation, you never know they might come out with that in the near future. All their products are reasonably priced. This 88 palette that I purchased cost me €23. The PP starts from €4.99. The bigger the palette the more the PP, you I wouldn't mind that as much I don't know about you. They also provide excellent brushes, I got the small socket complementary with my order. I love it.

The palette is just amazing. I always heard good things about Blank Canvas but I didn't think they it would be as good as this. All the shades are just fab. They are really pigmented, they have very little fall out. The texture of these shadows are very creamy and soft and not chalky at all. 

As you can see these are amazing quality shadows and I am really happy that I purchased this palette. All the shadows are matt so this might not be for everyone, but I think that everyone should own a matt palette and for this price you can't go wrong. I didn't swatch all the colors as they are a lot of them. Some shades didn't come out too bring on my hand but I did get a bit of a color in the last few weeks so my hand is much darker. That last shade (blue) is just fab. I can't believe how bright it is. I did a video on this too if you would like to watch it here.

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog and I'll talk to you later xx
