Eid Makeup!!

Hi all

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend, and Eid Mubarak to all who celebrated.This Eid like every other Eid I went really simple with my outfit and just added a little extra to my makeup. I decided to do the old highlight and contour which I rarely ever do on myself, but as my outfit was simple I went with it.

To contour and highlight I used Aom cosmetics, I used the medium contour stick and highlight stick in light, I applied the dark stick on the sides of my nose, jawline and at the top of my forehead. I applied the light stick on to the bridge of my nose, under my eyes and in-between my eyebrows. Before I applied all of this I put on one pump of the Guerlain lingerie foundation. Then to blend everything I used the sigma flat top kabuki brush. Then I went on to the rest of my face, I went for a subtle brown Smokey eye, using a two faced palate that smells like chocolate (smells soo good), on my lips I used a few nyx  lip liners in colours similar to macs spice.

End result ( next time I wont add the filter ;) )
 
 

I also did my sisters makeup, it was identical to mine but minus the eye shadow.
 
 
A family selfie :)
 
 
 Me and my beautiful niece decided to go for a walk in the evening and she said she wanted to wear a hijab like me, my little twin :)
 
 
I hope you all had a blessed Eid and made some beautiful memories with family.

Mid week Inspiration

Hi/Salaam

Its only Wednesday, and its one of those days, but I came across this amazing quote which really made me smile, I hope it makes you smile too :)


Sometimes the storm is helping us in ways we never thought possible, making us stronger and giving us a new perspective on life, so whatever storm your going through it wont last forever because after every storm comes a rainbow :)



I just love my effects lol have a great rest of the week, and keep a look out for my Eid post on the weekend.
