Summer colours

Just because the weather isn't like summer at the moment doesn't mean we can't wear some bright colours, so it at least feels abit like summer.

Yellow is a big colour this season. Yellow eyeshadow made a big impact on the S/S 2011 catwalks.
It can be worn all over or in the inner corners of the eyes, this gives it a more wearable look. Mac's new range Surf Baby eyeshadow in sun blonde is a great lighter yellow colour for the eyes.




For a brighter look, Mac eyeshadow in Chrome yellow looks good on most skin tones.



Chanel's must have nail colour for the summer is Mimosa, a bright yellow.



Or if Chanel isn't in the price range try the collection 2000 Sherbet Lemon.



For maybe the more adventurous out there Loreal have bought out a yellow lip gloss called Aqua Lemon Tonic. Although yellow in colour it's not that bright when its on and surprisingly wearable on the right skin tones.





Orange has been the in colour for spring but its still sticking around for summer. I bought this beautiful pallet from Nars last week called Mediteranee. These are really wearable colours, I can't wait to use them.







Mac also do a lovely orange lipstick called morange. Looks lovely with a tan.




Be brave and try some colour this summer.

Things I Love ........

I went see Alice in Wonderland in 3D last weekend, It was good. I enjoyed the make-up and costumes in the film, very inspiring. Lots of make-up brands are being inspired by the film and creating Alice in Wonderland theme products, I love this amazing Book of Shadows pallet from Urban Decay.

I would just like it to buy it and sit it on my dressing table, its so pretty! Its a shame its sold out, hopefully they will have some more in stock soon.

The Body Shop have just launched this fabulous Matte and Shimmer Cheek Colour in Pink almost identical to Benefits new sugabomb powder for £10.00 less! This powder is versatile as you could wear it on the eyes as well as the cheeks, a great multi use product for the summer. I love the body shops shimmer waves powders for the cheeks, so this ones a must I will be getting one of these next time I visit the Body Shop.
Who would of thought it but transfer tattoo's are big for the new season. I love tattoo's but I think I will never be able to commit myself to a design I know I would love for years to come, so for me transfer tattoos are the way forward. Chanel have bought back transfer Tattoo's using them in there s/s 2010 show. Developed by Chanel’s own make up artists, Peter Philips who drew them on for the catwalk show but now you can get your very own set of 55 individual tattoos for £49. Not a bad price for a Chanel tattoo!
