You may have seen me sporting lots of glitter and colourful makeup recently, if you follow me on Instagram. Perhaps you wondered what the hell I was doing? Well to be honest with you guys, that’s not that unusual for me. I’m a total glitter whore and I love getting creative with makeup – it’s so fun! I may not be the best at applying lip liner, or really mastering a great contour; but you can damn well be sure I’ll try out the most daring looks, and I’ll be happy to go outside my comfort zone.

I recently bought some face glitter/confetti from Dust and Dance, and it gave me an excuse to play about with some colourful creations on my face! I often do this, but I thought it was about time I start sharing some of this on the blog. Because why not eh?

This is something I would genuinely wear to a party and happily also cover my hair in glitter too. I can’t seem to help myself; anything shiny or sparkly attracts me like a magpie. I also loved getting some shots so that I can start to do some colourful edits, and possibly build up a strange/colourful/bright gallery of self portraits or artwork.

I have actually printed out the above edit, and I’m currently collaging and doodling over it in my sketchbook. I find things like this make even the most mundane of diary entries fun too.

I’ll probably be sharing more looks like this again soon, and you can see a previous ‘Mermaid’ look I did a while ago too. Let me know what you think, or if you have any particular styles I should recreate? 🙂

Thanks guys!
