Hey again,
Recently I have really got into wearing lipstick and makeup in general. I have in the past been really terrible at applying makeup and went through awkward stages of eye makeup. I was quite into rock and so went through the whole two much eyeliner during my teens. Also I used to love this dark purple and lilac combo that would have been alright if I hadn't been about twelve and knew how to blend. Up until this year I would only maybe use a bit of powder during the day and use eyeshadow and lipstick when going out at night. I still most of the time forget to use mascara as I find applying it annoying and always manage to get some in my hair/ fringe. But I think I am somewhat better at it now. As they say practice makes perfect.
I have always found it really hard to find a foundation to suit my skin. The first foundation I bought was the Maybelline dream matte mouse which was god awful. I was quit young so probably bought the wrong shade as I tested it on my hand and not my face. Yet if I bothered to use it, I would always take it of as it made me orange, and as a goth kid that was not the desired look :P. I recently have been using the Maybelline dream fresh bb as it is light and provides the right amount of cover my skin needs. I had also been using the fit me foundation also by Maybelline but I'm not sure if I like it anymore (I have the powder an concealer as well and these are both good).
I'm not a big fan of blush and currently don't own any but if I fancy wearing some I mix lipstick with my bb cream to create a liquid blush. I much prefer bronzer and use it to contour my face, I currently use the Rimmel sun shimmer light matte bronzer.
I am really into lipstick at the moment and splurged a couple weeks ago on a MAC lipstick (media, its a satin finish) which I love. This is a very sultry, sexy colour and is my perfect red lip.

Hey again,
I know I've not posted in a while, I've been busy moving to uni. I have now started my fashion course at coventry university. I started this week and so wanted to finally get back into blogging.
I have decided to switch things up a bit and post more about myself my work and things that I wear and that inspire me. I want to do this blog more as a documentation of my life as opposed to just being about nail art (which I am not that interested in at the moment). I also plan to do a lot more DIY posts as they are something I really enjoy and I still need to post some of the projects I have already completed.
Bye for now,
Lauren :P
