St. Patrick’s Day Makeup 

Hey guys, so today’s post is to do with St. Patrick’s Day. And yes guys I’m Irish. So today I suppose I’m doing a makeup tutorial on my makeup that I wore on Paddys Day, so let’s get started !!!! 

So I always use a good primer on days like this, so all my makeup stays on all day, so I used my Mayelline Baby Skin: Instant Pore Eraser. Then onto concealer I used my Essence Stay Natural in 02 Soft Sand. And usually I’m not the biggest fan of essence concealers, but because I used it under my foundation it was brilliant and gave great coverage. Next is the foundation and I used my favourite Rimmel London Match Perfection in 103 True Ivory. I seriously love this foundation, it gives great coverage and is a great shade. Next I applied my Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder in 001 Transparent. This is my favourite powder. It keeps my makeup on all day and it’s really inexpensive. My eyeliner I used was the Essence Kajal Pencil on 01 Black but only on my waterlines, I used no gel or liquid liner. To my cheeks, my bronzer was Seventeen Instant Glow in Gold Bronze shimmer brick and I only used the lightest shade because I didn’t want it too dark. Blusher next, I used my Essence Road Trip Collection Blusher and Highter in 01 Highway to Pretty ! And I don’t know if they sell this collection anymore, but I actually used the highlight just because it’s a really pretty pale pink colour. Eyebrows next and I actually used an old eyeshadow Platte I had for this, it was the Technic Netural Tone Platte and I used the lighter of the two shades of brown. Back to eyes and I used my Revlon Eyelash Curlers to curl my eyelashes. Mascara wise, I used 3. I suppose my ‘base’ mascara was Little Mix by Collection Full On Mascara in Perrie’s Lenghtening Black. *blushes*. But it’s really good and inexpensive.  Then I used Essence I ❤️ EXTREME Crazy Volume Mascara (in the pink tube) and finally I used my main mascara Rimmel London Volume Flash Scandal Eyes Mascara in 001 Black. This gave me real intense, black lashes. And finally my highlighter was Glow by TopShop in Gleam and I highlighted my brow bones (because I didn’t apply eyeshadow), the bridge of my nose and my cheek bones and that’s it !! 

So that was my makeup on Paddys Day. I really hoped you enjoyed this little tutorial. Hopefully I’ll be able to do more like this. 

Thanks lovelies !!!!!
