Hey there!

Today I have a simple gold eye look for you! I really wanted to try out one of my new Lime Crime Red Rose lipstick, and I thought this was the perfect look to go with it! It's also easy because they're quite accessible colours, so you don't need the exact ones I use (not that you do in any of my posts, of course).

I took these pictures before I had work, so they're not the best, but again, this shows you just how easy this look is!

After priming with my Milani Eyeshadow Primer and setting with a light colour, I put Naked from the Urban Decay Naked Palette in my crease.

I then darkened this with Buck from the same palette.

I then put Half Baked all across my lid.

I decided this wasn't quite gold enough, so I put a bit of Pure Ganache from the Zoeva Cocoa Blend Palette on the top.

I then took Cyprus Umber from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette and darkened my outer corner.

After I drew my wing, I then put Collection Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner in Funk just on the wing. This is such a pretty gold colour and I thought it went with the eyeshadow quite well.

I then put a bit of the Cyprus Umber shade on my lower lashline.

And Red Rose from Lime Crime on my lips. (Note: this stained my lips!!)

And there you have it: a simple gold eye makeup look.

I hope you enjoyed this! And I will see you tomorrow!

Hey there!

Today I have a post on some Lime Crime Velvetine's I bought from Love Makeup. Now, I know Lime Crime can be a bit controversial, but I don't really care tbh, I really like the colours so I just bought them haha.

I've never tried Lime Crime before, so I just got 3 shades to try out. I got the shades Posh (a metallic shade), Wicked and a holiday exclusive called Red Rose.

Please forgive my application of these, I had no other makeup on because I took these photos when I got back from uni, and then rubbing the off and putting new ones on then made my lips really red.

The shades work really well together, I subconsciously had a bit of a theme going on haha.

The first shade is Red Rose. This is an exclusive for Christmas, and I preferred it instead of Red Velvet. I can't wait to pair this with a classic Christmas look, it's such a super pretty red!

The next shade is Wicked. This is a really dark brown/red. I fell in love with this shade a while back, so I thought I'd try it out. However, when I tried to get it off, it was really tough to remove which was a bit annoying.

The final shade is Posh. This is a metallic purple, and I adore it! I don't have any metallic lipsticks, so I thought if I was gonna get one, I should go for an all out colour, hence the choice in purple. If I like the formula of this, I might get the rose gold shade as it's more of a nude colour to wear "everyday".

Let me know if you try out any Lime Crime shades, and which ones too!
