How to; get fuller lips



I have quite thin lips so as I was growing up I was always looking for ways to make them look fuller. Alot of companies have lip pumping lipglosses but I have found most of them tingle to make you think they work but don't actually work. Here's three ways to get fuller looking lips (without needles!).

Wear lighter coloured lipstick! We all know dark colours give the illusion of being smaller, which is why of course every woman owns a little black dress. Same goes for your makeup, so the darker the lipstick the smaller your lips are going to look, try to go for a satin finish too.

Always wear lipgloss! Lipgloss is shiny so reflects light making the lips look fuller, choose lighter coloured lipglosses or a clear lipgloss to go over your lipstick.

Use a white eyeliner instead of lipliner! I don't know about you but I think lipliner looks awful as most people get it so wrong. Apply a white eyeliner to the cupid's bow and below the bottom lip and blend. This gives the same effect as a highlighter so makes your lips slighty 3D.



DIY; Bling Shades.

 

I made some sunglass clip-ons today. I kept it a basic sliver pattern so that their not too tacky, ofcourse you can't see threw them like this which is why I made them as clip-ons instead of actual sunglasses. So you can just clip them on and off your own sunglasses. I reckon they could be alot better.

Spring.

Missguided

The weather has been lovely lately, I've been making the most of it as it will probably be raining again next week. It hasn't really been warm enough for me to get the shorts out but I've fallen head first for these little beauties (pictured, shorts) which Missguided have in stock at the moment in two different colours. I just had to share!

Hello my loves. 

I haven't posted an outfit of the day in forever so thought i would spoil you, haha. 

I've been so busy lately, it was my birthday on the 2nd of this month.. 21 at last! I had taken some birthday photos but just didn't get the time to post, although I still plan to post something birthday related! 

I was in Birmingham all day yesterday as my sister had her graduation from uni (well done em!). 

I haven't done a haul post in a while either so I'm thinking I might do a recent purchases post as I don't ment to 'bulk' shop anymore. 

Anyway I hope everyone has been good?

Power in Fashion

 By: Jackie Clark

 Sometimes life can get you down in the dumps. It can be easy to give into your negative feelings and depression. If you are diagnosed with a type of cancer like mesothelioma, for instance, this is especially true. Your prognosis might make you feel as if your life is over. You might not be motivated to dress up or even go out of your house to socialize with your friends and family. However, you should not feel that way because how you feel is as good as how you look. 

Fashion is a powerful tool that is all about boosting your self-esteem. We don’t employ fashion for everybody. We don’t make ourselves look good simply so we’ll look good to everyone else, but rather we do it because it is good for ourselves, for our souls. When you feel like you look good, you feel better, and when you feel better you are healthier. Fashion helps contribute to your overall mental, emotional and physical health. When you don’t feel good mentally and emotionally, then it takes a toll on your physical health. If you get depressed you might begin to lose your appetite and your willingness to do anything. You might stop exercising. These are just a few examples of how having low self-esteem can negatively impact your life.

 Fortunately, we have plenty of fashion tools available to us to make us feel better about ourselves. For example, nothing makes you feel better after a long, hard day of work than going to salon to get your hair or nails done. At the salon, you can socialize with others, feel pampered and relieve stress. When you’re treated like a queen, you feel like one. It’s amazing how something as simple as having your hair style or your nails manicured can help rejuvenate you from

the days experience and give you new energy to go out for a night on the town with a few friends.

 Many people even find shopping to be a great stress reliever. When you go shopping, you can forget about everything that’s bogging you down, and as you try on clothes, shoes and accessories and see how well they complement you, you’ll begin to feel better about yourself. One of the best things to do when you’re feeling down in the dumps is to treat yourself to a new pair of shoes, a new skirt, a new blouse or a new set of earrings. Plus, when you purchase new fashion items, you’ll be more excited about getting up in the morning because you won’t be able to wait to show off your latest style items. You’ll exhibit a better overall mood and feel more optimistic about the present and the future.
