My Beauty Routine

Okay - it's a pretty undisputed fact that many of the "well-known bloggers" are absolutely gorgeous and model-like in their stature, their wardrobes and their make-up. I for one am neither the typical representation of pretty, nor am I photogenic. I thought I'd just show you guys my typical make-up routine for going out. WARNING: there will be a non-edited photo of my just-woken-up face below...try not to run away :P Yep, that's me. No edits, no nothing. Just woke up, half asleep, messy hair. As you can see my skin is pretty blemished. I have pimples, red patches, dry lips, and my eyebrows look kinda crazy. So obviously I need to take a few steps to ensure that I don't scare people away with my face. Just kidding! (Sort of...) First step: Wash my face with a cloth and then QV cream as a moisturiser, I use it on my lips too instead of lip balm.

Thoughts? x x Stace Oh and enter my blog giveaway - a $90 House of Harlow ring up for grabs! :) FACEBOOK // TWITTER // FOLLOW // TUMBLR source: viktor vauthier/stopitrightnow/tfs/tumblr

Backstage at Givenchy’s Spring 2012 show in October, a single silver sequin was sliced in half and each crescent placed on the upper and lower lash lines. Natalia and Gisele glided down the runway with nearly bare faces and au naturel hair, their eyes flashing in the light with every blink. These pics are so lovely, intothegloss did a cute tutorial and I love jyslakay's take on the look! It's wonderful isn't it? I'm still wondering whether I can pull this off as a non-model-average-girl, in the real world. Well, keep posted lovelies...this may just be my next new make-up routine, well maybe not but I'm definitely going to try it sometime soon. xStace Pics from intothegloss and style and jyslakay TWITTER // FOLLOW // TUMBLR
