Hi everyone! 
So basically here in Australia it is like ice - like blizzard worthy - so I thought that if I created a Summer inspired makeup look (for my lovely followers on the other side of the world currently enjoying summer) that maybe my feet might defrost in the process?? I will have to get back to you on that one - not sure if its been effective just yet!
So in todays tutorial I will show you how to achieve this quick and easy summer makeup look that will have you looking glamorous for any event! It focuses on glowing skin, sweat proof foundation and a bright pop of coral on the lips. I've also kept the lower lash line free of dark colors and mascara to help brighten up the eyes and avoid mascara smudging!




I also used the Zoeva Cocoa Blend Eyeshadow Palette for this look - and oh my goodness it is completely amazing!! All of the shadows are beautiful warm tones, they are a mixture of finishes (satin, mattes and shimmers) and have the cutest names ever! The packaging is also beautiful and features gold embossing and is nice and slim and lightweight - which is a huge plus for us makeup hoarders! 
All products used in the tutorial are listed and linked below (in case you want to purchase!)

Hi everyone!

Today's post is about something exciting... and electric! Okay you got me it's the Urban Decay Electric Palette!

This one is a new release by UD and I've got to say its COMPLETELY different from their other palettes!
UD are well known for their Naked palettes - smokey neutrals, golds, warm and cool tones, so this 10 shadow neon pressed pigment palette is a long awaited change up to their game!



I love the palette - 10 neon shades, with a mixture of matte, shimmer & sheen finishes.
Be bold and wear alone, or mix these shadows in with your neutrals for a creative pop of life and colour!

The pigments can be used as eyeshadows, eyeliners and blushes! It's all about imagination!

I have created a look using the palette - it's very summer sunset looking on the eyes, using warm pinks and oranges!
Check out the close up pictures below and don't forget to watch the tutorial on my channel
http://www.youtube.com/nikkiajoy
You can find a list of all the products used at the bottom of the post!


I love the way this one turned out, its so bold and bright but the contrast of the black eyeliner adds a crisp edge to the colour and makes it a little more wearable. If your here in Australia, buy this palette from www.discountbeautyboutique.com.au for an amazing price & service to match!


I kept the skin and lips neutral to keep the focus on the eyes. I used a little bit of bronzer and a nude gloss. (See product list below for more information)


These earrings complement the purple base of the look so well! They are available at www.collettehayman.com.au


How beautiful are these lashes!! They are 'Miss Show Off" from Lady Boss Lashes.
Use code 'nikkiajoy' for 10% off your order!

Leave me a comment and let me know if you liked the look I created! I'm thinking of doing a blue/green based look with this palette as well. Im obsessed with the shades!!
