I was thinking of doing a video on this look as it suits everyone and its a simple glam look.

Morphe Brushes Review | Amy Laura

Hello Dolls!!  Hope you had a good weekend :) The weather has not been good the weekend here in ireland, so lets hope we get the sun back :) Here is my Morphe Brushes review and swatches for you, This palette is also in my monthly faves with a few swathes there if you wanna check it out. I love seeing review's before I buy something just to give me an idea on what the product is like and is it worth it, so here is mine :) These shadow's are like mac shadows and there are some dupes so you need to check these shadows out, I will leave all links to the palette at the bottom if you just want to have a look at all morphe brushes amazing product's. If you would like to see a makeup look using these shadows just let me no :)



35c Matte Shadow's

Morphe brushes have a range of palettes on there site and also amazing brushes aswell for a very affordable price. The palette I have here is the 35c palette, it is a all matte palette which is perfect as I dont have alot of matte eyeshadows and there just super easy to blend and so creamy. You get 35 eyeshadows in this palette from warm, cools, to neutral shades. I love that you have a choice of colours from green's to pinks, purple's, yellows and browns, ect. I love that you have 3 shades of black/ grey the black is just the darkest black I have tried, So the black is the shadow to try if you on the hunt for the perfect black :)

 These shadows are so pigmented and they are just like mac shadows, yes I am saying for €30 including shipping, you can get all these matte shadows that are like mac shadows, the best thing is that you have the shadows in a palette and you get a large mirror, so its perfect for travelling, they have shimmer/ satin shadows aswel but just not in this palette.  So you need these shadows in your life. 

So there yeah have it my review swatches on this amazing palette, I no my swatches aint the best but just to give you a idea of how pigmented they are, and the shades. Let me no what you would like to see next on my blog :)


Here are some swatches of the shadows from left to right starting from the bottom :) 








Happy Shopping!

Favorite Tan: How I Apply My Tan | Amy Laura

Hey Dolls!! So here is a post about my fave tan's and how I like to apply my tan :) I alway's mix my tan's together so I can have dark and glowy skin :) I love trying different tan's out and my fave one's at the moment are cocoa brown 1 hour  (the dark tan) Sally Hanson a long time fave and Rimmel shimmer tan :) I would mix two of these together, I love the cocoa brown mixed with the rimmel tan, when I want a extra dark glowy bronzed skin as the rimmel tan has shimmer :) Sometime's I will mix all 3 tan's aswel just depend's :) Who doesn't want to have the bronzed look :) It  has been raining here, so why not fake my tan ;)



This is what the cocoa brown and rimmel shimmer tan look's like mixed together!

I picked up the mouse tan not so long ago just to try it as I alway's use the spray can, and I was happy with how the tan turned out. So I would recommend all these three tan's, as they are affordable and mixing them you get longer out of your tan. These tan's are perfect for prom / grad if your looking for a cheap tan that give's you a glow :) You can pick these's tan's up anywhere Penney's, boot's, Tesco's ect The rimmel and sally hanson tan are alway's on sale so you can these for cheap :) The sally hanson €9 (mouse), The cocoa brown tan retail's for €7, Rimmel Shimmer tan retail's for €8. These tan's are also lovely on there own :)







How I Apply My Tan:


  • 2 day's before tanning exfoliate and moisturize. I think the exfoliation gloves are best.
  • Apply moisturizer to hands, knees, neck and elbow's so the tan doesn't stick, I have been there haha.
  • I would use a mit, any mit I have, but I feel that the mit sometime's soaks up the tan, so I started using a sock to apply my tan :) I no A SOCK  to put tan on, but it work's so well and it just apply's the tan so evenly. I also use a flat top foundation brush, to go over my hand's and to apply the tan on my neck and chest just get's were the sock or mit doesn't :) 
  • I would leave my tan on all day and night and wash the tan off the next day, I do not use anything that will rub or exfoliate my skin as the water will just get rid of the top layer of tan. 
  • Now you can apply another layer if you like, apply moisturizer to maintain your tan :)



I hope you enjoyed this post, and it help's anyone who want's to do there tan for there prom or an event :0 
Let me know what your fave tan is :)
