Lilpumpkinpie05 or Jackie O, aka Makeup Game On Point on facebook is an amazing MUA on youtube with an awesome, fun personality  and she makes you feel a part of her tutorials. I've recently mentioned her in another recent look but I wanted to do another one specifically for this series.
She does some amazing makeup looks but I have recently recreated her Tropical Paradise eye look, which is actually my second attempt since my first one just came out as my same old peacock eyes as I forgot exactly what she did so it turned out the same as my others.



 Face | I am still using my Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation with my Rimmel Stay Matte powder, and I contoured with my Nars Laguna Bronzer & highlighted with MAC's Cream Colour Base in Pearl & MAC Lightscapade. For blush I wore Bourjois 16 Rose blusher over Nyx's Stick blush in Tulip.

Eyes | After priming I used Maybelline's Colour Tattoo in Tenacious Teal all over the lid & along the lower lash line. Over that I used Sugarpill's Loose Pigment in Darling on 3/4 on the eyelid with a damp brush and then I went in with Inglot AMC 68 on the other 1/4 of the lid staying underneath the crease. To define the crease I mixed Inglot's 439 with a darker purple from the Bh Cosmetics Day & Night palette and also applied it on the lower lash line and blended out the crease with a nude & a hot pink from the D&N palette as well. In the inner corner I applied a light green eyeshadow pigment that I bought from eBay & highlighted the brow bone. And then I finally lined my eyes with Maybelline Master Precise eyeliner & a Bourjois Kohl & Contour eye pencil in the waterline, and finished with mascara.
Lips |Nyx lip liner in Mauve, MAC Myth lipstick with Nyx butter gloss in Apple Strudel.
Overall I like how mine turned out but it's obviously not exactly the same, I wish the green was a bit brighter and used a matte purple in the crease with a more defined line that would have been more like hers.

My inspiration!

Anyway I hope you like this look and that you go and have a look at her videos.... No affiliation but I hope y'all go to check out her talent if you haven't already!

I've been a fan of watching beauty videos on YouTube such a long time, and recently I've copied a couple of makeup tutorials so I thought I would put it into kind of a mini series that I will occasionally post so I can share my favourite Beauty Guru's. Hopefully it will create inspiration for those who may be looking for someone new to follow.
This first installment is an Arabic-inspired look by the beautiful & talented Emma Pickles. You should definitely check her out, she has an awesome accent, to-the-point videos & seems so lovely. I will share the video down below!

Hey gals <3
Both of these FOTD's are so old it is not funny! The first look is from back when I bought the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Edgy Emerald & I wanted to test it out, but I love the whole look together and still wanted to post these.

Look 1

Pretty much just wanted to show off my good hair day :P Didn't do anything to it!

I love wearing light greens with pink cheeks & lips so I kept the hues similar! I know yet again these are spring makeup looks.... that I had probably done last spring, way too long ago. Oh and while I'm lovin my hair in these pictures, yesterday I changed my hair, after having the same colour & style for soo long.
~Products~
Face: The foundation at the time was a whole lotta mixture so there's probably no point mentioning it, but for the rest I used a Dior Bronzer Sample, MAC Lightscapade, Nyx Stick Blush in Tulip, Jordana Blush in Coral Sandy Reef. This combination was quite random as I usually match both the cream & powder blushes to each other.
Eyes: Maybelline Color Tattoo in Edgy Emerald, Bh Cosmetics Day & Night palette [pictured, light aqua on lid, green in crease]. Tan colour to blend out crease. Maybelline Master Precise eyeliner
Lips: Revlon Balm Stain in Lovesick

Look 2
This was inspired by Shaaanxo on youtube from a GRWM (Get Ready With Me video) where she did the same colour placement. Excuse that the eyes are not symmetrical, especially with the eyeliner! If you ever feel afraid to rock bright eyeshadow, stick it to the lid or lower lashline only and use neutral colours everywhere else :) My under eye highlight looks way too bright, went a bit crazy with the lilac concealer! Oh and I am enjoying the light waterline with the darker lower lash line, kind of feels a bit more mod to me!

 ~Products~
Face: Same thing about the foundation, Nyx Cream Blush in Glow, Face of Australia blush in Outback Primrose (before I gave it away obviously lol), (same bronzer & highlighter as always)
Eyes: Day & Night palette; Reddish Brown [crease], Dark brown [lower lashline], Same light green as FOTD above [lid], Pixie Epoxy & then random ebay pigment over lid [pictured]. Nyx JEP in Milk [waterline], Maybelline Master Precise eyeliner + NP Set liquid eyeliner.
Lips: Nyx Lipstick in Narcissus, Nyx lipgloss in LaLa
I'm glad I can finally get this post out of my drafts haha, so good to clean that part up! And although once again this type of look is posted in the 'wrong' season, it's nice to be inspired by / inspire others! For those of you in the spring time, I definitely would recommend Edgy Emerald as a lid or lower lashline colour! As you can see I think different shades of pink compliment green nicely.

And I'm sorry for the messy/ jumbled pictures, Nowadays I am trying to keep them more consistent. :)

Thanks for looking xx

Is it fair to say I was "inspired" by Misschievious on Youtube when I pretty much copied her drugstore makeup tutorial? And although I was drooling over the Sleek Lagoon palette she used, I knew I would have plenty of similar colours I could substitute them for. I love using a darker base underneath bright colours for a bright but smoky look, as done in my Jewel Smoky Eye Makeup, as it brings them out differently compared to a lighter base.

And although this was a bored-on-a-saturday-night-playing-with-makeup-look it wasn't a waste of makeup as we ended up going out in the end. Nothing worse when you do your makeup perfectly and then nothing happens!

Ignore the eyelash giving me a lazy eye!

Lips: Totally a guess, but I am pretty sure it is BYS Champagne Rain

Slightly altered, same as first pic but contrast upped.

In case you are wondering, I wore the same outfit pictured here, as you can see with the 2nd skirt & the peplum top. I found this perfect for this night, as it had been raining almost all day, but by this time it had stopped so it was actually quite humid so I did not get that horrible hot & sweaty feeling.

As I always say thank you for viewing, all of your comments mean so much to me. I appreciate all of my followers, old & new, so don't be afraid to let me know if you're following me & I will checkout your blog in return! xxx

 I've been trying to use my Inglot eyeshadows a bit more lately and wanted to do something sunrise-ish and then I remembered I had a glitter that would go perfectly with this look! As you can see with my eyes open it's not very noticeable and then bam! I kept the rest of the face & lips quite light toned although I think it would look nicer with a coloured lip.

~Products~
Face: Rimmel Wake Me Up, Garnier BB Cream
Revlon Hushed Blush in 'A Floral Affair'
Nars Laguna, Mac Lightscapade
Eyes: Mac Painterly Paintpot
Inglot 'P 407' , 'DS 495',' AMC 60', 'P 393', Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy, La Splash glitter 'Lava Dust'.
Nyx Slide on pencil 'Green Papaya', Nyx Slide on Pencil 'Sunrise blue', MUG 'Shimmer mint', Inglot 'P 428', Maybelline Master Precise, NP Set black eyeliner, Essence I <3 Extreme volume mascara, Max Factor False Lash Effect.
Lips: Nyx Black Label Lipstick 'Nude'

After I applied my primer, I started with Inglot 407 (shimmery peach) to 1/3 of the inner lid, and then 495, an intense shimmery red-pink colour to the outer half & slightly into the outside crease, blending both colours together (doesn't need to be perfect as glitter will hide that). Blend Inglot AMC 60, a beautiful bright yellow with a hint of glitter particles, into the crease & slightly upwards, if needed, blend the edges with a skin toned eyeshadow. On the outer 3rd of the eyelid, apply a sticky base such as Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy and pat La Splash glitter in Lava Dust over the top.
On the lower lash line apply a light green eyeliner like Nyx Slide on liner in Green Papaya & transition into a dark but bright blue like Nyx's Sunrise blue from the same line, and set with similar coloured eyeshadows (Makeup Geek Shimmer Mint, Inglot 428, retrospectively). Highlight the inner corners (Inglot 393) and the brow bone if you wish (which I didn't for some reason). Apply winged eyeliner & mascara & falsies if you wish.

With flash, the yellow shows up a bit better

I am so in love with this combination of inglot eyeshadows and I love the finishes of them! And the glitter just tops it off. This is one of my fave brighter looks in a while :)
I included a "playback" of what I did because I did this look before work & wasn't able to take pictures of each step so let me know if you find it helpful or if it is just plain confusing!

Thank you for looking and for your comments in advance! xx Take care

I ordered the Day & Night platte from www.bhcosmetics.com as they were having a sale so I paid $10.50 for this bad boy! (not incl. shipping). You should follow their facebook page because they have so many great specials on all the time!
        I received it on Tuesday and I have been using it ever since.. there are so many gorgeous colour combos you can do, sometimes I even do the unthinkable & use the night colours during the day ;) I'm so bad! :P Infact I like to use most of the night colours all the time since they're so purdy but the light pinks will come in handy for the warmer weather.
 Using flash so you can see the gorgeous shimmers..


& in natural light so you can see the pigment naturally.

The are 30 day colours & 30 night colours with a mixture of mattes & shimmers. Also I think I have found a few Naked palette dupes so stay tuned for that post! (one day, be patient ;))
Some of the colours are highly pigmented, but some are unfortunately not. Over time I will post more looks with this so you can see.
This palette is so versatile, you can do many looks ranging from natural & barely-there, to smokey & ultra dramatic so I am really glad I bought this palette.

Wanting to use some of the most prettiest, pigmented colours out of the palette first, I created this peacock-y eye that was a little bit inspired by SMLx0 on "the tube" (lol if u get it)

ignore the 'big nose angle' lol but I like how glowy I look :)

And I just got an inch+ off my length! It feels like a huge difference in length lol but much more healthier! Even though I *still* had small split ends left after arrghh!

Shimmery white to highlight.

Lips: MAC Hue & Nyx Sugarpie lipgloss


 Annd just 'coz I think it looks prettiest upside down!

 Thanks for looking, if you have this palette what are your fave combos to do?

I hadn't really have done a green look in foreveer, and lets just say I had some idea's in my head & they actually turned out the way I wanted it to, for once! Greens can be worn toned down in more 'earthy' ways or if you like, you can wear them brightly even if it's just a pop of green or over the whole lid.



 Look 1, Mossy Greens



 I have no idea what I used on my face... but it's probably the same old foundations I'm trying to use up (why do they seem never ending!!) & also the Sportsgirl blush
~Eyes
 Nyx Slide on Eyeliner Pencil in Green Papaya all over the lid & lower lashline
I used all Makeup Geek Eyeshadows
1: Shimmermint
2: Poison Ivy
3:Envy- over Nyx Black Bean JEP
4: Seamist
5: Shimma Shimma
Before I applied Seamist I blended Vanilla Bean from envy out to the brow bone so they would blend better together.
Maybelline Master Precise eyeliner- No idea how I missed those couple of spots, grrr.

Lips: Revlon Matte Lipstick in Strawberry Suede with lip balm for gloss.

Look 2- Bright Greens
It seems like I haven't cranked out the 120 palette in FOREVER, and this time I wanted to do a briiight green with matte colours to practice blending.
I couldn't get many decent pictures so this will have to do. Also I did this in a hurry so the eyeliner is terrible.
 Nyx JEP in Milk
120 palette for all the colours used.
Maybelline Master Precise
You can see where I got lazy and didn't apply the JEP on the lower lashline, what a difference it makes!


Thanks everyone for looking, I hope you all like! How do you like to wear green eyeshadow?
