My NYE look - outfit and makeup


The outfit- YES the dress was £2.50! (I know right?) One of my uncles works for NEXT and they have a staff shop in the UK near where I live. Where they sell all unwanted/ faulty/ overstock. Fortunately this was over stock so there was nothing wrong with it. I was lucky to find such a bargain. Shoes were a silver sparkly barely there sandal which were also from next. Clutch bag was a gift. Excuse my little doggy. 




Next onto makeup: I did my makeup myself. Eye makeup was Mac Carbon in the crease,which is a matte black shade, I had practiced this look so I just went in with it but usually I wouldn't go for a black straight away as it can be hard to blend! I then went in with Mac black tied which is black with slight reflects of glitter! On the lid was Mac platinum pigment which I applied with a damp brush (I used eye drops as they do the same as fix + and make the colours POP). I then went in with The showstopper! Which was Collection glitter liner in silver (not sure of the exact shade name) it's so amazingly pigmented, long lasting and pretty! And it comes in a ton of other shades to glam up any look! originally, I was just going to apply this in the inner corner and under the eye. But when I saw how beautiful it was I just went mad and put it all over the lid I loved it!!








Let me know what everyone thinks of this look and if anyone wants more details leave me a comment! 

B'bye xx
