L.F DOES A/W - ROYAL BLUES

LARA STONE FOR VOGUE PARIS BY STEVEN KLEIN

This screams A/W with the clash of brash silver and deep berry toned lips. 

 I took the blue undertone eye and dark berry lips as inspiration and the rest I just went with the flow.

Webcam whore shot but you see the make-up :)

Hey guys, another unwearable look this week! I got the A/W bug and deep vampy lips with navy inky eyes was the theme of the day. As you can see there our similarities between the source image and my interpretation - I've just chosen to exaggerate features and proportions.

What do you think of this weeks look? I might do something more wearable next week.... who knows!

L.F DOES A/W - CONTRADICTION

SOURCE
Intense eyes with bleached brows and muted lips and razor sharp cheekbones. LOVE. And slightly jealous. 

I look pretty moody. Weird mix of intense Gothic/Arabic style eye with the kitsch pop eyebrows. Opposites attract right?

The pink undertones are more prominent here :)

Hey guys, I'm back with another 'interesting' look this week. I thought I'd do something different with the eyes, as I tend to change the appearance by making them appear larger than emphasizing my natural narrower shape. The more feline heavily defined shape is not something I'd do in real life but if you have a different eye shape to me, this way of defining your eyes will have a greater impact. I initially left the brows alone but it lacked something.... and the obvious route was to rock out the sequins and glitz! I 'bleached' my brows out first and using the sequins created an outline - it's subtle but without saying POW.The rest of my face was left pretty neutral with a soft pink to tie everything together.
What do you guys think of my combination? And I start uni (final year) this Monday. ARGHHH. 

L.F DOES A/W - SMOKE BOMB

I never hide my obsession with John Galliano and Pat McGrath. I love the power of transformation with make-up, and these theatrical characters are magical.

This was actually my initial starting points. You can seethe remnants of the burnt rust shades before I went wild.

One of the lashes is a bit too long and drags the eye down but otherwise I like the anarchy of it all.

Hey guys, I'm finally back with a look. I know I say this a lot but I *actually* did plan to do a wearable look, but having YouTube videos in the background I soon got the creative buzz and the brushes took over. There's a lot of black and my house mate said it reminded him of a bomb or fireworks with the splashes odd sporadic hints of colour. It's a heavy look but the 'soft' brush feathering edges makes it less harsh. Kind of my a smokey eye mask of some sorts.
Hope you guys like this :)

L.F RAMBLES - SORRY

ORLA KIELY FOR TESCO JUTE BAG
Perfect for someone who likes recycling and loves prints.... me! It's very sturdy and a good size. It's actually become my gym bag haha.

MEL BY MELISSA 
Yes. Another pair of shoes. These are the best shoes ever though - cute design and super comfortable

THE BALM MARY LOU MANIZER LUMINIZER
I actually tested this product on a photo shoot (from another MUA's kit) and fell in love with it!

It gives an incredible shine/glow without glitter. Hyper real skin = need this.

Hey guys, really sorry for the lack of posts. I feel guilty every time a week goes past and I've not done a look for you guys, but I've just been really knackered from work and playing with make-up is the last thing on my mind when I return home.... zoning out and eating food is though!

I've been really lucky my manager has given me some pretty solid hours since I started, and next week I start 6 - 11 (OH MA GAWWD) for 10 days, so in theory the early start will mean I'll have the rest of the day to be super productive and do some looks.

Sorry for being a crappy blogger.
