Autumnal makeup look!

Hello Everybody!

Today I am going to be showing you my favourite autumnal makeup look.

I think autumn makeup is my favourite because i just love the warm and berry colours.

so lets get to it!

Step 1
Apply your favourite concealer to any ares you think may need it, I like to apply mine under the eyes and on any red spots i may have, i then blend with a make up sponge.

Step 2
Now apply your favourite foundation, I am using the Rimmel Stay Matte foundation because it lasts all day and it has a matte finish so you don't need to powder throughout the day
because it also never goes shiny!

Step 3

Next is eyebrows, for this i am using the Kylie Jenner eyeliner brush because i love how precise it is for my eyebrows, i am also using the smashbox full exposure pallet and i am using the matte brown shade just because its a perfect colour for my skin tone and doesn't look too dark, although for this look you are going to want your eyebrows to look fairly bold to match the bold lips.

Step 4

Now add some brow gel to hold your brows in place, this also makes the hairs look more defined as you can see in the photo my right eyebrow has the gel and my left doesn't and you can really tell the difference, i am using the soap and glory brow gel.

Step 5
I am going to do a rose gold eye look so to achieve this i am going to be using the Kylie Jenner eyeshadow in the colour rose gold and i am just applying these to the lid using a flat eyeshadow brush.

In the crease i am using the clinique strawberry fudge duo but only the brown shade, apply a small amount on a fluffy eye brush and blend through the crease, then take a smaller fluffy brush and the the same colour under the bottom waterline and that's it for the eyeshadow! so easy.

Step 6:

Take an eyelash curler and curl your lashes, then apply a few thick coasts of mascara, you can use false eyelashes to if you want but i didn't just because i don't want my eyes to look really bold, which is also the reason i haven't applied liquid liner.

Step 7
Apply bronzer under your cheek bones, on your temples and the sides of your forehead to give your skin a glowey bronzed look, this will also make your face appear more chiseled and defined.

Step 8
Now apply a rose gold blusher to your cheeks, this will really help the rose gold on your eyes pop! this blush i am using is by sleek in the shade rose gold.

Step 9 
Apply some high light to your cheeks again in a pink colour, i am using the urban decay highlight i the shade fire ball. I used flash in this picture so you could see just how pretty this highlight is in the light.

Step 10
Apply a dark berry lipstick, i am using the mac Selena range in the shade dreaming of you.


And that's it you're done!! i hope you enjoyed this blog post! feel free to leave a comment below! thank you so much for reading! :) <3

Product Empties!

Hello Everyone!
In this little impromptu mid week blog post I thought I would show you my most recent product empties because I have really gotten into these types of blog posts so I thought why not do my own?!

1) NARS super orgasm blush
I love this blush it is my go to blush so I was so sad when I ran out that I immediately had to repurchase it, it looks so lovely with the gold sparkly shimmer gleaming over the pink, it has kind of rose gold look to it which obv I love!

2) Gucci Guilty Perfume
I was given this from my brother as a birthday gift a few years ago and I have only just finished it which is amazing because I wear it all the time and its only just run out! its a very grown up scent its kind of like a deep musky talcum powder which doesn't sound like it would smell nice but trust me it does! maybe if this perfume was on sale somewhere I would repurchase it.

3) L'OREAL professional techni art liss control
As I am a qualified hairdresser I have access to professional products, but don't worry I'm sure you could find this online somewhere, this product is my hair holy grail, I use a pea sized amount on damp towel dried hair and just spread evenly through the ends and it makes my hair so sleek and shiny and minimalists any fly away hairs that i might have, if i want an extremely sleek look i will again use a pea sized amount and using my finger comb through my dry styled hair and it makes my hair look amazing and i am deffo going to repurchase!

4) Katy Perry Purr Perfume
I bought this perfume quite a while ago and i actually used it up a little while ago but i kept the bottle because it looks so cute, the scent of this smells to me like coconut or that smell you get when you walk past a hairdressers again that might sound gross but trust me it smells so nice! I'm not sure if i would jump straight into repurchasing it now although maybe i will in the future.

5) Zoella Tuti Fruity Scrubbing me Softly Body Scrub
I adore this product so much I love the smell and it leaves your skin feeling beautiful! the scent also lingers for ages which you don't usually get with body scrubs! i was so sad when Zoë announced that they were going to be discontinued that i stocked up and bought 6 of them haha, also you may be able to see that i haven't quite finished this yet but i threw out my empty tub and this is almost finished so this counts right?

6) Biore Charcoal Pore Strips
I used these up but I don't think i will be buying them again in a hurry just because i don't really think they did much, they reduced the oil on my nose but it didn't really extract anything form it so i still have a few blackheads, then were also quite painful to remove so i think ill stick to my scrubs instead!

7) Soap and Glory Pillow Pump Lip Gloss
I defiantly won't be repurchasing this product in a hurry, i think this is a typical example of false advertising because it didn't plump my lips in the slightest, it just tingled a little bit and that was all , i noticed absolutely no difference so i just used it as a normal lip gloss just to finish it up.

8) Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara
I love this mascara the wand has natural bristles which i love and it makes your eyelashes look so thick and long as if you have false eyelashes on, I won't be repurchasing this one yet just because there are a few other mascaras i would also like to try but i deffo will in the future!

And that's all the empties i have for now, let me know in the comment if you like this style of blog posts and feel free to share with your friends and follow my twitter page https://twitter.com/jadeloves963 Thank you so much for reading :) <3

How to Make Bonfire Night/ Camping Cupcakes!

Hello Everybody!
So... Its bonfire night already?! Where has the time gone? I am throwing a little firework party so i thought some little bonfire cupcake would be perfect and these cupcakes don't have to just be for bonfire night these would totally fit in with camping too! Lets get started!

You Will Need:
225g caster sugar
225g butter
4 medium eggs
2tbs drinking chocolate
2tbs water
225g self raising flour 
ready to use frosting
orange food colouring
mini marshmallows 
match makers
edible glitter (optional
cupcake cases
cupcake tin

Step 1:
preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

Step 2:

Whisk together your butter and caster sugar until you have a light and fluffy consistency, This time I am using an electric whisker just because i was a little bit short for time and this will combine you mixture super fast.


Step 3:

Next is time to add the eggs so, take one egg and crack into your mixture being very careful not to get any shell into your mixture and whisk again with your electric mixer, you can also whisk by hand it will just take a little longer. You want to mix in one egg at a time so that your mixture doesn't get too wet and curdle, if this does happen don't worry because we will be adding flour later which usually fixes the curdling but if it doesn't just keep adding a little more flour until the mixture fully combines.

Step 4:

After that, it is time to make your mixture deliciously chocolatey, for this you will need to mix together two tbs on drinking chocolate or cocoa powder which ever one you prefer, and mix in the 2tbs of water until you get a thick creamy consistency, if your mixture is too runny add more powder and if it is too thick add more water, you will then pant to pour the chocolate into your mixture and whisk in as well.

Step5:

Now pour in half of your flower and slowly fold into your mixture with a metal spoon in the figure of eight once the flour has completely combined add the other half and repeat.

Step 6:

Put your cake cases into your cupcake tin and spoon in a generous amount of your mixture, then pop a mini marshmallow into the centre and cover with another small dollop of mixture. Repeat until all of your cases are full, the pop into the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

Step 7:

Whilst your cakes are baking its time to colour the icing. Empty out the contents of your ready to use icing into a bowl and pour in some orange for colouring until you get a colour you are happy with, the place to bowl into the fridge to harden it up a little bit for piping later.

Step 8:

After the icing has been placed into the fridge, take your match makers and empty the entire contents and chop into smaller sticks to look like little logs, once you have done this also place it into the fridge so they don't melt.

Step 9:

once your cakes are done, take them out of the oven. If they look a bit gooey on top don't worry, its just the melted marshmallow. Now its time for the fun part, decorating! Get out your open star nozzle and place into a piping bag, if your piping bag is not pre cut you will want to put it too. Then plop your icing into the piping bag and twist the top to push the icing town to the bottom of the bag (i forgot to take a picture of this, sorry)

then starting on the outside of the cupcake start to draw a circle and gradually swirl it into the middle and pull up to get a high peak.

Step 10:

Take your pre cut match makers and create a pentagon shape around the edge of your cupcake, then take some more match makers and place them between the gaps of the other match makers to look as though they are logs around a fire.

Step 11:

Add a mini marshmallow to the top of the icing to look like a roasting marshmallow and sprinkle with some edible glitter.

For those of you that don't like a lot of icing on your cupcake you can just to a smaller dollop of icing in the middle of the cupcake and just apply one layer of match makers and it will still look just as cute!

And that's it you're all done and now you can demolish your delicious cupcakes!
