DIY body scrub



Everyone wants beautifully smooth skin, but not everyone wants to  go out and buy a body scrub that doesn't even do the job well. Are you one of those people? Or do you just love making your own products? If you are then you've come to the right place! Just like my skin care blog this tutorial is kind to skin as the ingredients are 100% natural!

What you'll need:
3 tablespoons of sea salt
3 tablespoons of olive oil
A few drops of essential oil (optional)

The steps

  1.  Put sea salt into a bowl and pour in the olive oil, (adding essential oil if you are using any). Stir ingredients together well.
  2. Apply your scrub to damp or wet skin. Rub it into you skin gently using circular motions to take off any dead skin cells.
  3. Rinse with warm water
And there you have it, baby smooth skin without having to leave the house!

I hope this is useful!

How to apply mineral foundation

Mineral foundation for me has to be the most natural looking foundation on the market. I love
how it blends evenly onto the skin and gives good coverage, perfectly blending away imperfections while still maintaining a natural looking completion.  But there is a slight down side to mineral makeup; the application process. For a beginner it can be hard to know how much is too much and how much is too little when putting makeup on the brush, many don't know that there is a technique to applying mineral makeup and that it is a skill that needs to be mastered to create that flawless complection everyone is pinning over, but fear no more for I am here and I am going to take you through how to apply mineral makeup so that you can be sporting a flawless complection in no time.

The mineral makeup that i use is the BareMinerals original foundation in the shade fairly light.

The steps:

1. Tap your foundation pot three times into the lid.
2. Swirl your powder brush into the lid until as makeup is tucked into the bristles, i am using the real techniques powder brush but any dense powder brush will do the job.
3. BUFF makeup onto the skin in small, circular motions over your face, until happy with coverage.
4. Love it, look in the mirror and be impressed! You look flawless!

Until next time my lovelys!

How to do winged eyeliner


Winged eyeliner has been a growing trend for the past few years, paired with a bold lip or simply on its own winged eyeliner creates a striking and exotic look and is my all time favourite eyeliner style, hands down, but it's the application process that can be a tricky skill to master, and that's where bloggers like I come into the picture, sharing tips and tricks for popular makeup trends.
I tend to keep my winged eyeliner subtle but at the same time obvious and that's what I will be showing you in this tutorial but by using the techniques shown you can simply make your wing as subtle or flamboyant as you wish.

Step one:

Line your eyeliner brush up with the inner part of your eye













Close your eye on the eyeliner Brush to apply eyeliner accurately.













Step two:

Draw a line from the existing line on your inner eye out towards your outer corner. You can make the line as round or straight, thick or thin as you like - experiment to see what suits your eyes the best.











Fill in any gaps between the eyeliner line and your lash line.













Step three:

Customise your wing! Make it as long or as short as you like. I typically use the length of my eyeliner brush as my wing length.












Connect the top of your wing to the main line of your eyeliner, filling in any gaps.











Step four:

Apply mascara














And voila! You have now created a winged eye! Now experiment with different wing lengths and thicknesses to find the one that suits you best!
