MY NEW MAKEUP OBSESSION: MAC CRANBERRY




So one of my Christmas presents was this glorious eye shadow, which I am now obsessed with! It's so beautiful, it's from MAC and it's called Cranberry (buy from here). It's a really lovely berry shade, but has more of a red tone than I thought when I put it on my lids, but it's not red, so I would say a mixture of the two (terrible description, apologies). It's actually really nice to wear some colour on my eyes, and even though it is a bold colour on my eyes I have worn it with every shade of lipstick from nude to a bright red, so it really doesn't change any other makeup I would wear. 

I bought a new makeup brush which felt like it cost the earth (can buy from here) which is a MAC 224 blending brush. Even though it was ridiculously expensive (like £24 or something?!?!), I genuinely think it was worth it! This brush is all I use to apply this makeup, it puts the shadow onto my lids well, and obviously blends well too. 

Have you got any recommendations for my to try new eyeshadow colours? 

Lots of love,

NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS




Necklace - Zara
Top - Topshop
Trousers - River Island SALE
Shoes - Topshop SALE

I just thought I would show you what I wore for NYE. It was just a house party with some of my close friends, but I always think you should dress up for New Year. These trousers were only £10 in the River Island sale, how amazing!? Although I only realise now that they are dry clean only… but never mind! These shoes, just how beautiful are they? I first saw them on I dress myselff's youtube video which I will link (here), they are also a sale buy, so what more of an excuse do you need! My eye makeup is MAC Cranberry which I am currently obsessed with! 

My new year resolutions? This year I didn't really have any if I'm honest, just to be happy and healthy and to worry less! A bit cliché but I couldn't really think of many specific ones. 

Do you have any new years resolutions?

A SUPERHERO CHRISTMAS





I know the fact that people are going back to work tomorrow, and I begin University again seems like Christmas was TOO long ago, but I haven't caught you up on my Christmas so thought I would! Once again my family had a themed Christmas (last year the theme was Disney), this year the theme was Superheroes and Super villains. Like last year, it was really fun, we always try and keep it a secret but that can never really happen in our house! All of the outfits were a mixture of home-made and some savvy ebay buying! 

I got really lovely presents from everyone and was extremely grateful. I'm sure in upcoming posts you will see some of the presents! Hope you had a marvellous Christmas!

Lots of Love
Alice
