My Step-By-Step *Spring* Face! *VERY PIC HEAVY*

Now, i'm not one to wear makeup all the time, especially everyday, but today the weather has been beautiful and so I thought I would make the effort and actually put on some makeup which was not 'neutral' for once.
Because I am quite dark, i've always been a bit scared of using bold colours such as pinks and reds, however since its Spring, I thought i'd go all out and show you my step-by-step on how i achieved this look! So here we go:

Randomness

Heyyy!!

So i just thought i'd get some random stuff out of the way:

So within the next few weeks, I may not be posting as much as exams are near..yikes! I still cannot believe i'm in my last year. *sigh*

My 21st birthday is also coming up and i will be having a little do with some friends at TGI Fridays, and then me and a couple friends will be flying out to Amsterdam for the weekend to celebrate properly...good times!!

Also, don't forget to enter in my giveaway!! In sidebar ===>

Yesterday I got my lip pierced at this tattoo place where they were doing a special offer, so I got it done for £5. I'm not ENTIRELY happy with it: The ring is FARRR too small for my lip so i'm seriously considering taking it out...it also hurts so much. :) Here it is:
 What do you think?

Also, after like 700 years of searching for these dang boots, I FINALLY found them! I know i'm a tad bit late with the trend and i would have preferred the boots in brown, but I can still rock these:
Complete with peg-leg trousers. #iLove.

Does anybody know where i can get some relatively inexpensive cropped harems from?

Chanel Rouge Coco Lipstick.

According to Peter Philips’, Global Creative Director of Chanel Makeup, “Rouge Coco fascinates me, because I’ve never seen a texture this comfortable and easy to apply. It’s the ready-to-wear lipstick. Just one sweep over the lips colours them and covers them in a melt-away balm … I like the idea that women from the gloss generation, who are afraid of lipstick, can return to this essentially feminine beauty step with Rouge Coco.”

 This lipstick is in 'Paris - Number 22'

I've instantly fallen in love with this lipstick! It's extremely light upon application-almost like a lip balm, so it feels as if you aren't wearing anything. It's also very easy to build up the colour. When first applied, it comes out as a cherry red, then upon build up, achieves a deep 'blood' red. The lipstick also has a slight vanilla scent to it which smells lovely.
I also love the packaging!
I feel so girly when I apply it on for some reason lol! As if i should be lounging on some French patio, in Paris, spread across a chez lounge, drinking Champagne and crossaints and...whatever else French people eat. :P

I'll definately be wearing this shade in the Summer!

E.L.F Haul

Once again, I completed my monthly E.L.F haul. I love this brand, i really do. Not only are they amazingly cheap, their products are really really good! The delivery time is quite pucca as well; i ordered my items on friday and it got here today (Monday) So, w/out further ado, specific faves include:

Do you like elf products? What do you think of them?

Concealer Comparisons: MAC

Yesterday I bought a new concealer from MAC called 'Select Cover-Up' in NW 50 after I saw how well it worked on my Mother's skintone. I normally used MAC's Studio Finish concealer in NC50 but I didn't like the pasty texture it gave off, so I thought i'd do a little comparison!

 I then decided to test both concealers on my tattoo.
So here is my tattoo before:
{Which I think needs to be re-tattooed :( }

And this is it with the Studio Fix:

As you can see, the coverage is...meh. It's extremely pasty on my skin and it's very apparent where it has been applied. I had to dab on quite a bit to get enough coverage.

Here it is with the Select Cover Up:
As you can see..the coverage is near flawless! The consistency is not too watery and i only needed a minute amount to cover the whole of my tattoo. I think i've found my new fav concealer!

I don't understand WHY....

THESE...are back in fashion. =/

Why? WHY?
Why couldn't Chanel just have left them in room 101 where they belonged?

Clogs are..and always will be hideous pieces of attire. I mean CMON.
Next to Crocs, these are the most disgusting shoes ever IMO.

Smh!

2) Where did her lisp go??
3) Did they really show dude's ass?
4) Why is her moaning so cringeworthy? I had to mute it. She can't even moan properly.
