Deceive Your Own Eyes


We are distinguished by our different features, yet we all contour them differently which creates a different shape to their original one. Let’s talk about our eyes today.

We will focus on small eyes, many of us who are distinguished for their small eyes tend to contour them to make them look bigger. 

One cool way of doing so is by contouring the outside corner of our eyes with a brown, navy blue or black eyeliner in a V shape starting with the upper lashes down to the bottom lashes. Add a flick for fun, and pencil in your waterline with white eyeliner for an extra pop.

Try it to love it!

No lids? No Problem.




We all have similar yet different features at the same time. What do I mean by that? There are the wide eyes, the small eyes, the round eyes, the big lids, the small lids, the no lids.. and the list goes on.

The most ones that put eye shadow the least are the women with small lids that when the eyes are open, it looks like there are no lids at all. Often these women are upset about this, but here are a few tricks to make the best out of what you’ve got:
  • Apply highlighter on your brow bone and inner corners of your eyes to make the eyes appear bigger then they really are
  • Don’t apply a thick eyeliner on your eyelids, instead smudge in a brown pencil very close to your upper lashline, and add lots of mascara to hold your eyes up
  • Apply concealer under your eyes to enlarge the area around your eyes
  • Apply white or beige eyeliner in your water line
  • Finally, sweep light brown shadow on your bottom lashline and apply one coat of mascara there too


Have fun experimenting more once you’ve mastered these rules above J

Choose Your Colour



When it comes to foundation. Choose your color wisely. This is how:
  • Choose the 3 colours closest to your skin
  • Apply a swap of each colour on one side of your cheeks all the way to your jawline and blend
  • The colour that disappears with the colour of your skin is the right one!
  • The face is a better option to try the foundation colour on than your hands as you will often have different colour skins on each
  • Depending on the texture and coverage of your foundation, set it in with translucent powder that weighs a lot lighter than your foundation to avoid a cakey look
  • Finally, choose a concealer that is only 1 shade lighter than your foundation

Veiled!

Today, I want to talk about veils... I am sure to every bride, putting your veil on is one of the defining moments on your big day. As little girls, I am sure all of us dreamt of wearing a long cathedral veil with sparkles (of course) cascading over the shoulders leaving a beautiful trail of glitter and sparkles behind! 

I would like to  indulge my romantic side and show you gorgeous veils and how it revolutionised to become more than just an accessory.   

The Statement Veil
We have noticed that layers of net and tulle have been making an appearance of late on the catwalks of Armani Couture and Alexander McQueen amongst others, so if you’re a fashion-conscious gal then you can rest assured that you’re being on trend.


The Birdcage
The birdcage style is a fantastic compromise for the bride that wants to wear a veil but doesn’t want to be subjected to the treacherous consequences of wearing a longer length.

Spanish Princess
Spanish veil is all about making a hopelessly romantic statement which just screams luxe at the same time.


Long & Luscious
There’s something utterly whimsical about a bride enveloped in a cascade of tulle or seeing it stretched out behind her.
