BERLIN- 24/01/10 - 28/01/10

I have a proper excuse for my absence! In case you had no idea I went to Berlin with college for 4 days and it was pretty much left up to us to do our own thing. I was never really interested in graffiti before but after the trip I feel so inspired to create some kick-ass work! Lame lame lame I know. I will be back Berlin!

 Anyway back to L.F MAKE-UP..... What do you guys want? I'm thinking of postponing my video posts till I figure out how to use my 'proper' camera, so for now stick with photos. 

Bare with me guys, please!

19 AND STEPHANE MARAIS

Start! My skin is acting up again pfft. Cheek spots!! Who gets spots on their cheeks?!

My inspiration photo. Amazing!

 Finito and maybe the yellow across my forehead was a bad idea because I look mega SICK. Note taken *jots down*.

 I did have a video here but the quality is so bad I've taken it down. Basically I remember I have a digital camera that can film videos. DOH. Trouble is finding right place to film atm. Also I forgot to mention why I like Mr Marais's work in the first place. I find his work has that sense of  'freedom' quality almost like painting. His work isn't about meticulous precision and accuracy. He's also very fond of using cremes/gloss textures with the eyes and loves smokey eyes. There's a sense of play/experimentation and I like that.

 MJBMJ bag and watch :D

Hey guys! So huzzah for me getting round to doing a look from the Stephane Marais book. College is currently crazy as I have uni' things to sort out and lovely weekly briefs to 'bosh' out - thank-you tutors!!!

Anyway I'm 19! Ahhh that grand old age. I'm not actually that big on the whole birthday sha-bang. I prefer just to keep it to myself and to see who actually remembers.

 The above photo is actually what I bought for myself. I'm kind of 'picky' with presents because I like to receive and give people useful presents that they'll actually use and like. So I love the above a looooooooot and I seem to have a trend of buying a new MBMJ watch every birthday hmmmmm.... expensive habit. Gah. 

L.F RAMBLES - LIFE 12/01/11

 Easier to take photos from laptop then camera because.... minimal effort!!! From the Givenchy look and looking incredibly EMO (not intentional).

Taken 10 minutes ago? And as you can see my hair has not improved. 

Anyway I'm just showing you the dreaded accumulation of dirty brushes. I have lots of brushes because I hate cleaning them. But now I've finally run out of clean ones :(

Hey guys, short post on what's going on in L.F land. 

So I'm back at college and that means I'm back slaving away as a G.I.D student. Good news is my UCAS has been done and dusted so now I only have to wait for any offers or rejections. Wah, nervous times.

Also I FINALLY went sale shopping which is bad for me as I impulse buy because I think everything's a 'bargain'. A few beauty related things but no make-up (pats back) and went to M.A.C to check out all the new collections but everything was a bit meh. Nice, but don't need (mega pats back). 

Lastly. I'm off to Berlin for 4 days on the 24th so I'll put extra effort into doing more stuff for you guys!

Take care :)

MY TAKE ON THE STRONG BROWS AND RED LIPS TREND

 Playing with make-up at 5:45 AM  perhaps wasn't a good idea because as you can tell I'm slightly zzzzzzzzz.
