A Christmassy Makeup Look

Hello Again!

Two posts in one day, what? I'm back to post my first makeup look on Em Charlie! I think this is the first time you've all seen my face so "hello, this is what I look like!" I really like this look for everyday, but you could amp it up with some contouring and eyeliner (liquid/gel recommendations??)

Let's get on to what I put on my face:

Face: It's Skin Lavender Primer (Korean Brand), Nars Sheerglow in Deauville, Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 20, Bourjois Chocolate Bronzer

Eyes: Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Half Baked and Smog, Brows in Naked, Bare Minerals Lash Domination Mascara

Lips: Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in Watermelon

Hair: Air Dry and Shwarzkopf Daily Oil Elixir

There you have it! Casual Christmassy Makeup. If you've done a christmas look, post a link in the comments, I'd love to see it,

Em xx

Summer Things

How is it December already? I can hardly believe it but it's finally summer here, and I've got my essentials at the ready.

First up is a good book. I received The Rosie Effect for my birthday and so far I'm loving it, but I won't spoil it for you! It is the second in the series so check out The Rosie Project first. I can't wait to be reading it on a beach somewhere. Sunnies are a must in Australia all year round, and turtleshell cat-eyes are for me. On to a beauty essential, the NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in San Paolo. This is a lovely deep pink that really complements any eye look, and the texture is awesome and pretty long-lasting if you let it dry first. Because it's so hot, I really need to get my makeup off as soon as I get home, and I've jumped on the Garnier Micellar Water band wagon. It's good stuff, thumbs up from me! Last thing is music. I'm recommending Built On Glass by Chet Faker, golden songs from a golden artist. Talk is Cheap' is my favourite at the moment. The other album is I Forget Where We Were by Ben Howard. I loved 'Depth Over Distance', and I can't wait to hear more of his records.

That's all for today guys, and don't worry, there's heaps of content on its way throughout this month. Let me know what your summer essentials are, and I'll see you around.
