And I'll admit, I had fell in love with Kim Around the same time she had fell in love with him| Contouring

I am obsessed with contouring. I want to know the best products to use and the best way to contour. I want to look like i have amazing cheek bones like kim kardashian!

But how to achieve this without looking like i have spread two stripes of mud down the side of my cheek?

Its all about blending...taking your time and building colour up over time! Be gentle and use products that are made for the purpose of contouring!

here is how i contour and what i use...

Yes me without a scrap of make up...i apologie for disturbing you!!

I use Lust skin tint in charisma under my foundation and then over the top of my foundation Mac harmony blush. Sleek contour kit is also really good if you're limited on budget.

I also use a luminizing concealer something like YSL touch eclat but i use a high street version such as lumi magic by loreal or aldi's copy cat version!

Do i look like Kim yet...long way to go until that!! haha!

Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight | FOTD smokey brown eyes

I have been trying out using more of my eye shadows and this is a look i have been wearing recently.

 

I have also been trying out the way Kim Kardashian used contouring in her routine and i really love the look it gives. 

I think i am getting obbsesed with Kardashians...lol!

I know this is a bit full on for day to day wear but in winter i think you can get away with wearing more make up!!

Bananas have no lips Bananas split! Bananas unite! | Home made Face Mask

So i have always fancied getting in the kitchen to make some thing other than my boyfriends tea...! But have never tried making my own face mask as i thought who wants to smear mayonnaise all over their faces? what can it possibility do to my skin...How wrong i was!!

I had some horrible old bananas (i do not know why i buy them as i just never eat them!) they were about to be chucked in the bin when i looked at my face and had hundreds (slight exaggeration) of red bumps/spots. I freaked out and decided i needed to give my face a good old treat.
I looked in my skincare cupboard and didn't have anything masks for blemishes so researched quickly on the internet what else i could do which i when i put the whole banana and face thing together...

I used a few recipes mixed together to create something i will be using again and again...

What you will need

Banana (if you're not a fan of bananas leave this out)
3 Tbs Oats
1 tsp Honey
1 Tbs Milk

A fork (for mixing)
A dish (for holding)

• I took off my makeup using soap and glory peaches and clean. I then used a face scrub by the body shop, the Vitamin C microdermabrasion one. 

• First mash the banana with the oats

• Now add the honey and milk 

You may need more or less milk depending on how thick you want the mask, I used quite a large banana so needed slightly more.

• Now smear this stuff all over your face!

I think this mask would be nicer warmed up in the microwave for a few seconds as it was really cold to apply. I didn't really enjoy the feeling of smearing it on my face and my dog tried to eat it...!

• I left it on for 15 minutes then scraped off the chunky bits and washed the residue off my face. 

I still have blemishes but it looks so much better than before!!

My face has never felt so smooth and supple. It took away the redness from the blemishes and this morning they have practically vanished. 

I couldn't recommend this highly enough and am going to try and use the oats on there own as a scrub/cleanser. 

I always thought shop brought masks would way out do home made/natural masks but I was wrong!

I think you should all go now to your cupboards and make this!!

Do you have any more natural face mask recipes i could try?
