Hello!

Today I am bringing you another Jeffree Star post!! I recently ordered Androgony and Virginity from Beautylish and I am in love, seriously. I already own Posh Spice, and I did buy Doll Parts but I sold it because I wasn't keen. If you missed my post on these, check it out here.

I have wanted Androgony for aaaages, and I was so excited when I saw it was available. If I manage to ge my mits on Scorpio, Unicorn Blood and Celebrity Skin, I'll be content. Virginty was the only shade from the summer collection that I was interested in, I wanted a really light, different lipstick, pretty much the same reason why I bough Marshmallow from Colourpop.

Virginity is a really pale pink shade, unlike anything else I own. The packaging is in the summer collection packaging, which is yellow and pink. It also smells like root beer, a lot nicer than the normal lipsticks! Besides that, the lipstick isn't different from the rest of his line, it dries down the ame and the doe foot is the same shape as the regular lipsticks. I actually feel a bit like a Barbie or something wearing this haha.

Androgony is a really popular shade from Jeffree Star. And I can see why! I've wanted this since last year, but I could never get hold of it because it sold out every time. But when I saw it on Beautylish, I knew this was my chance! This shade compliments my skin tone really well, and I feel, just like Posh Spice, I can wear this in a day time and a night time and it will suit most looks!

Overall, I am still very impressed with Jeffree's products. The lipsticks are a little bit drying, but they are matte! But they do mostly stay on throughout the day, unless you eat oily food. I'm really excited for the launch of the Lip Ammunition, and I'm even more excited to see if he launches another Christmas range this year! I will be sure to snap it up.

Let me know what you think of Jeffree Star Cosmetics!

Hello!

Today i just wanted to share my makeup wishlist, and the things that I think are worth buying (maybe). Although, I did just have a huge purge, I'm still looking for more products to try out, and sometimes replace items that aren't cruelty free (I'm almost sure that all of these are cruelty free, but please let me know if they're not!)

I hope you enjoy, and maybe get some inspiration for yourself :)

Hello my lovely gals and guys!

This week has been a busy one for me as I've had my final photography exam, which was 15 hours long!! But a little highlight has been my very first Jeffree Star liquid lipsticks landed on my doorstep.

I ordered them from Cocktail Cosmetics for £14 each. Don't buy off Depop or EBay etc because they are ripping you off!! I was super gutted that I didn't manage to get Scorpio when it was first released, but when I heard Cocktail Cosmetics were selling Posh Spice and Doll Parts again, I knew I NEEDED them. I wasn't too fussed about not getting Gemini as it's not really a shade I would wear.

I'm gonna chat about Cocktail Cosmetics just for a moment, because they are brilliant. I've shopped with them once before when I bought my friend Posh Spice for Christmas and I was amazed at how quick they arrived. This time round, I ordered on a Friday, so allowing for the weekend, I received them on the Tuesday. They did send an email to say there may be delays because of a huge amount of orders, which I thought was quite nice as some companies never explain where your package is!! The lipsticks arrived in a box with pink tissue which was very cute, and the items were undamaged (bonus).

Even the boxes to these are amazing. I love the stars down the front, and uhh. How is just a box so perfect? I'm obsessed. And because I'm a massive loser, I opened the bottom of the box so I didn't rip the labels at the top.

 

Now onto the lipsticks themselves. Perfection. I love love LOVE the colours, I think Posh Spice is gonna be my new fave.

I feel that both the colours are wearable for everyday (I mean, I don't really care about "everyday" rules, but other people might do). I really want to try Posh Spice with like a brown smokey eye, I feel that would work really well.

You literally don't need much with these, Doll Parts covered my lips with just one swab! The formula is amazing, and literally comes off with one swipe of my makeup remover. Doll Parts did smudge when removing, but who cares when you're removing it anyway? Posh Spice came off with no trouble at all, but it did take longer to dry on my lips.

The wand is a regular shape, but I feel that they're a lot softer than regular wands, which is great because you know when you get wands that are like, kinda hard and a bit annoying when you're applying the colour? Or is that just me?

I am absolutely in love with both of these shades, and I obviously want more shades. I would love Androgony, and I'd also like Weirdo and Unicorn Blood, and for some reason Breakfast at Tiffany's just because it's a really cute colour. I'm so excited for his new releases, I definitely need to try one of his highlighters!!
I definitely recommend these to anyone, the formula and colour payoff is amazing, and you definitely get your money's worth in terms of how much you need to use each time, which is great if you're on more of a budget.

I hope you enjoyed this post, and definitely check out Jeffree Star Cosmetics!

Hey baes!

Today I have a look that is inspired by my one and only Queen, Jeffree Star and his beautiful hair.

If you don't know who Jeffree is, then please educate yourself. His makeup skills are just on another level, and his hair is actually stunning, so I wanted to create an eye look inspired by this.

So once you've discovered Jeffree (and his amazing makeup, which you can get from Cocktail Cosmetics in the UK), we can start with the look!


After placing my tape and priming, I first used Freshly Toasted from the Zoeva Cocoa Blends palette as my transition colour.

For this look, I decided that I was going to use a blush palette rather than eyeshadow, and I am using the Makeup Revolution Blush palette in Sugar & Spice. I have numbered the colours in order that I used them as they don't have names.

I took the first colour and applied it over the initial transition colour, extending it up a little to show some subtle pink. I focused mainly on the outer corner with this,

Then I took the second colour to add a more pinky vibe.

I wanted a little bit of depth so I added Naked from the Naked palette with a pencil brush just to lightly add a bit of shade because I didn't want to go too dark with this.

Moving away from the blush, I added Virgin also from the Naked palette in my inner corner. To add a bit more shimmer, I added Set Me Free from the Makeup Revolution Death By Chocolate palette on top of the Virgin shade as I thought these two made a great combo.

Coming back to the blush palette and using the final third shade, I applied this in my outer corner, buffing it along the tape.

I found that this reduced the intensity of the shimmer colours, so I went back over these, and added the thinnest line of Sin from the Naked palette inbetween the third blush and the shimmer colours as I felt this made the transition look a bit neater.

And this is the part I well and truly messed up. You know when one wing goes absolutely perfect, and then the other one really doesn't but you can't wipe them off because then you'll ruin all of your hard work with the shadow? That's what happened to me with this look. But it's okay, because no one has perfect eyeliner days everyday, even with the aid of tape.

After doing my face makeup, I drew a kohl liner along my waterline

Then I added a mix of the second and third blushes directly under this in a smooth line to add an extra pop of colour.

I added mascara and lashes, as per, and the eyes were complete.

On my lips, I decided to use the Makeup Revolution lipstick in Scandalous Depraved. I quite liked how the pink and purples mixed well, and I also liked how this lipstick got darker the longer I was out, that was pretty cool.

Please excuse my hair, my straighteners literally exploded on me so I need to buy some new ones.

I hope you enjoyed this look, it was definitely a lot of fun playing around with colour for a change, and something that I would like to do again.
