Smokey burgundy FOTD

The last week has been super busy for me.  First I had a Look Good Feel Better workshop, which was really great.  Then I spent 3 days in Taunton training ready to start with Benefit this later this week.  They've really changed as a company since I worked for them many moons ago.  I haven't really had the chance to even think about blog stuff until now!

Now that life is settling back down I can catch up on some review posts I've got planned, and get back on track with sharing my looks again.  I didn't have time to set up my camera before rushing out today, so I'm afraid today's pictures are taken on my phone and kind of rubbish.

Eden FOTD

It's been a while since I used Sleek's Garden of Eden palette, but the sun was shining and I felt like doing something more spring-themed.  I patted Illamasqua's pigment in Beguile over the middle of the lid to add a bit of sparkle, but it hasn't really shown up in the pictures.

Nic Cage with glitter FOTD

I'm so glad we have sunshine.  Taking photos is so much easier!  I used one shadow over my whole lid, but two different bases beneath it to get the colour gradient.

Caligraphy FOTD

I've been seriously hating my skin recently.  That crater on my face?  Yeah, that was a black head.  Ewww.  Totally at a loss as to how to fix it though.

I picked up the Calligraphy palette a couple of years ago in the sale, and it's not one that I reach for often.  I think the blue liner makes this look way more interesting.
