February Favourites!

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog :)

I've been so busy the past few weeks...I started my Placement on the 15th of February and there is just so much to do, but I'm absolutely loving it! Such a great experience and I'm learning so much. I finally have some time to write a new blog post for you guys and this one is going to be about my February Favourites! I really narrowed this down because this post would have been extremely long....but I have 3 favourite products that I want to share with you guys and I've just been loving them so much.

Here are my 3 February Favourites....



Let's start by talking about the Carli Bybel Palette....


This beautiful palette is an eye shadow and highlighter palette! The colours are so beautiful and pigmented. This palette has been by go to make up palette, I'm in love with it. The colours are perfect, you have some beautiful neutral colours, along with shimmery brown shadows to intensify a make up look, then there's an amazing mauve colour - which is by far my favourite. Not only does this palette have great eye shadows but it also has highlighters, which is perfect for any skin tone. The highlighters are great and I totally recommend this palette. Has perfect colours for a day time look and also for an evening look! LOVE LOVE LOVE! I bought this palette from BHcosmetics.

Next are the Gerard Cosmetics lipsticks....



I'm totally in love with this lipstick - it's called Ecstasy!! Such a beautiful colour and it's so long lasting. I wore this on Saturday night and it literally did not come off. It is a Hydra-Matte liquid lipstick and so it dries on the lips, however if you apply some lip balm before it will be fine. I'm loving liquid lipsticks, they are so easy to apply and I'm just totally in love with this one right here. I bought this from their official site; https://www.gerardcosmetics.com/. If you go on their Instagram page, they tell you about some offers and discounts! Last night I bought another liquid lipstick as they have 40% off....which is just amazing! This is how the lipstick looks....



Lastly ....the other lipstick from Gerard Cosmetics. This is not a liquid lipstick, just a normal matte lipstick and it's called 1995. I also bought this from their site and it's so beautiful. Perfect for during the day and for the evening. I really love Gerard Cosmetic's lipsticks, they are so beautiful and really long lasting, totally worth the price. They are 20 dollars each, however they always have great discounts and so they become totally worth it and there is also free delivery. I bought both lipsticks for only 20 euros, so check out their Instagram page for offers.




So those are my February Favs! I really hope you enjoyed this post and if you have any questions please feel free to comment below. Follow me on Instagram; Suzanne1818 and on snapchat; SuzieCutie18. I really hope you all had a great weekend and stay tuned for my next blog post.

Valentine's Day Make Up Look


Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog!

Today's blog post is about a Valentines make up look. You all know that Valentine's Day is tomorrow and so I wanted to share with you guys a pretty and simple make up look perfect for the occasion. So if you're interested, keep on reading :) 

Of course, this look is not just for those girls that are going on dates but could be used for any occasion really! Even if you're just going out with your friends, this look could totally be for you. So here is the look below;




Of course, I filled in my brows to give them some shape and I used the Smashbox brow definer which is just amazing, I wrote about this in my previous blog so check that out if you haven't seen it yet. For the eyes I used a beautiful gold colour on my lid and pink on the crease. I used the Mermaids Forever Palette from Make Up Revolution. It's such a beautiful palette with loads of really beautiful shades. 

Then I wanted to do something slightly different and so I decided to smoke my lower lash line with a purple eye shadow. I really love how it looked, the purple really made the look complete. For my inner highlight I used "Pearl" from Stefania D'Alessandro. I absolutely love this shimmer, it's just so beautiful and your eyes just pop with it! Then do that fierce wing and add a pair of your fav falsies and you're good to go :) I love these false eye lashes, they are just perfect! These are the ones I bought from England, it's also in my previous blog post. 





Here are the colours I used for this make up look (marked with a X). The pink shades, that golden colour on the right and that really pigmented purple at the bottom.









You can definitely rock this look with a pink or nude lipstick. If you want to make the look more dramatic then you can just add some black eye shadow in the outer corner to really make that intense smokey look and then a red lip! You can never go wrong with a red lip!!

I really hope that you guys liked this make up look, it's very simple yet eye catching at the same time! Hope that you all have a great Valentine's Day and if you re-created this look please tag me either on Facebook or Instagram - I would love to see them!

My make up purchases from my mini holiday.

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog!!  

I haven't posted anything in quite a while and I'm so glad to be writing this new post for you guys :) I've been so busy the past few weeks, it's insane!  I went on holiday for the weekend and I'm also writing my Dissertation which is due in 2 weeks...OMG....help me now....but anyway, I'm going to show you guys what I bought when I was in England.  It was such a well needed holiday as I was so stressed with Uni and everything and it was just a great break.  I met my best friend who lives there and I couldn't have asked for a better holiday.

As you all should know, England has AMAZING shopping malls! I went crazy in all the make up stores and I couldn't control myself.  So many amazing brands that we don't have in Malta and that we have to stay ordering online and getting charged delivery fees...like Urban Decay, Benefit cosmetics, Smashbox, Bobbie Brown etc!  My favourite shop would have to be Urban Decay, so many amazing make up products.

So let's start....I'm going to start with my fav product from the ones I bought which is the Smashbox Brow Tech To Go.



It rolls up and it is shaped at a bit of an angle as you can see above.  It's so perfect to create that sharp, defined brow.  This product is exactly like the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer.  It's absolutely amazing and I'm so happy with this product.  It slides on so easily and you do not have to apply so much pressure.

Next is the Smashbox Contour Sticks!



Love these!!! They are big crayons basically and it came with a sharpener.  The texture is so smooth when applied on the face and it blends so easily.  There is the darker shade for contouring, the medium shade as a bronzer and the lightest one of course for highlighting.  These crayons are so easy to use - absolutely in love.  Also I found it super easy to contour my nose with these because you just "draw" a line where you want to contour and then just grab your beauty blender and blend - so simple.

Next is the Beauty Blender.


Well not much to say about this, but it's the perfect blending tool.  I've been wanting to buy a beauty blender for ages.  My foundation looks 100 times better using the beauty blender and it just blends everything so nicely.  Make sure that it's damp before you use it.  Love the shape of this, the thin part is perfect for under the eye area and blending the nose contour. 


My other fav product is the Urban Decay "Heavy Metal" glitter in "Distortion". 



I've been wanting these glitters for ages as Nikki Tutorials uses them in her YouTube videos (P.S check her out if you haven't, she's amazing).  I asked the sales assistant for them and initially I wanted the gold glitter but unfortunately they were out of stock, but then she showed me this one and I fell in love.  She applied it over my black winged liner that I had on, so that she can show me how it looks and it just looked amazing.  Here is the photo below.  I felt like I had mermaid eyes and I just loved how it looked so I bought it.  Very happy with this purchase. 



And lastly....


A pair of false eye lashes.  As soon as I saw them, I knew I had to buy them.  Love how they look and I can't wait to try them.  

So that is all! I really hope that you enjoyed reading this blog, if you have any questions or difficulties, please feel free to leave a comment.  Share this post if you enjoyed reading it and stay in tuned for my next one :)
