FOTN + OOTN | Party makeup + Eye look

Hello! I'm sorry I didn't post yesterday I went straight from working (late) out to a party so I had absolutely no time! But anyway here is what I wore to a party yesterday and which makeup I wore, including an eye look. So my outfit of the night and face of the night.  Sorry the photos aren't that great, they're the only ones I have!


Outfit
Dress | Topshop
Shoes | Boohoo.com

Face
 Mac select cover up concealer | Shade 'NW25'
 Rimmel Wake me up concealer | Shade 'Ivory'
 Benefit 'hello flawless oxygen wow' foundation | Shade 'Ivory'
Collection pressed powder | Shade '02 Tender Touch'
Jean Paul Gaultier bronzer | (A bit more than usual)

Lips
Mac Lipstick | Shade 'Crème cup'
Sephora glossy gloss | Shade 'Maple Syrup'

Eyes
I decided to recreate the look that I did on my eyes so here is a quick overrun of how I did my eyes. (By the way I have no other make-up on so excuse the skin..)


First I put on a light silver shade from an old eye shadow palette from Next. I used this as a base for my eye shadow.




Second I used my Sleek palette which I mention in a post here (If you would like a review of this let me know in the comments below).  I used the shade 'Thunder' on my crease and the shade 'Noir' on my outer corner.  




Lastly I used the shade 'Pillow talk' (which is white).  I used this on my inner corners and my brown bone for highlighting. 




I also used
Rimmel waterproof eye definer | Shade '261 noir'
Jean Paul Gaultier Brow Definer Pencil | Shade '2'
Soap and Glory Thick & Fast Mascara | Shade 'Super jet black' (But not in this photo)

Here is the finished look!




Hair
I straightened my hair using a Babyliss Hair Straightener which is very nice as it comes with 10 different heat settings.  
I used a VO5 Heat Protect Spray and a VO5 Heat Protect Serum



Hope you enjoyed this!

6 Non Heat Hairstyle Ideas


1 | half up-do 
To do this hairstyle you'll need 2 or more booby pins depending on how thick your hair is, and you'll part you hair into two sections then place these on your shoulders. Call one side A and B (it doesn't matter which is which) then split side A into two section (one on top of another) and clip the top section to the back of your head and leave the bottom section down, then repeat on side B.

2 | high ponytail
This hair style is pretty self explanatory  to do this you'll need one thick hairband. Tip your head upside down so your hair falls to the floor, then collect all your hair, and take it to the top of your head, then flip your head back the right side up, and secure it with a hairband or elastic. Now you can mess around with your hair to get it to how you like it, by possible loosening the band or pulling bits of hair out to shape your face.

3 | half in half out
For this hairstyle it is the exact same as the high ponytail, but your when your head is upside down don't collect all of your hair, instead only collect the top half then flip your head back right side up and make sure it looks neat, try to split your hair from the top section and bottom evenly with no tangles or fly always crossing each other this could cause the hair band/elastic to get caught in your hair (no one wants that!) then just secure and again here you can mess around to get your hair how you like it.

4 | waterfall braid
This hairstyle is probably the most difficult to do and explain, it's easier to do if you know how to do a French braid, if you can then start doing a french braid but you leave a strand down each time, here's how to do it in more depth: http://m.wikihow.com/Make-a-Cascade-Waterfall-Braid

5 | plaited headband
This hairstyle only works if the length of your hair is past shoulder length, it's simple to do and still really effective, what you want to do is to a ordinary plait at the back of your hair all the way down, but don't tie it off! you'll want to then put this over the top of your head and secure it down with bobby pins, then do another plait at the back of the other side of your hair, and when finished secure it down over the top of the first plait we did, this should leave you with a plaited headband

6 | fishtail plait
Finally the fishtail braid which again is difficult to explain, your going to want to take all your hair over to one side, by one of your shoulders then split this into two, I'll call these A and B, and take a small section from A and take it over to B then take a small section from B and take it to A and keep going until you reach the end of your hair, for a explanation in more depth go to: http://www.sofeminine.co.uk/hair/how-to-do-a-fishtail-plait-som2083.html
