Products I Use To Contour!| Kirafelicialindxn




Hi guys so I haven't been blogging a lot as you will know due to a few very important issues i'm currently going through but I decided I will do a quick post for you today. So as you may or may not know, contouring is my favourite part of doing my make up, so I'd like to share with you the products and tools I use to contour.

So the first product I'm going to start with is the NYC Colour Wheel Translucent Highlighter. I'm not really a big fan of this high lighter, I have some sat on my shelf in their box waiting to be used, I just haven't got round to it yet but I use this product with my MUA F7 Small Fan Brush. I bought my high lighter from Superdrug and you can get the brush on the MUA website.

So my favourite part is applying bronzer and the bronzer I use is the W7 Honolulu Bronzer, I love this bronzer, it is an absolute dupe of the Benefit Hoola Bronzer, I've used the Benefit bronzer and considering the price difference I am never going back. The brush I use to apply this is my Real Techniques Contour Brush. I've talked about these brushes loads but I bought my bronzer off Amazon and My brush came in the Core Collection set and I bought that from Superdrug.

So that's it for today guys, hopefully I will be able to get back into blogging everyday and I will give you an update on everything soon, so until then keep missing my posts and I'll be back soon.

Clothing + Home Haul!!


Hi guys, so today I'm going to be sharing with you a few items that I've  bought over the past week or so for myself. Please excuse the photos, the lighting in them is so bad and this is due to me having to take them in the dark. However I will link all items so you can check them out properly, so lets get started.





So the first item is this amazing pug cushion. I've seen so many bloggers and vloggers buying these lately from Primark however I don't go to Primark often as there isn't one near me. This cushion however is from Tesco, yes I said Tesco. I've never ever thought to look in Tesco for home stuff before but I was so happy with the stuff I got from there.

Price- £6
Link- http://www.tesco.com/direct/novelty-pug-face-cushion/737-6587.prd?pageLevel=&skuId=737-6587





This next item is as you can see from the photo almost empty. I know you probably thinking ' what?she said she only bought these items the other day.' Yes I did only buy this the other day, yes it is empty. So this candle has a very big favourite, It is also from Tesco. The reason it is empty so quickly is because it's in the scent Sweet Vanilla, which is Alex's favourite scent. Obviously for me this size candle isn't great but for most other people it would be great at an estimated 30 hour burn time.

Price- £2

My next item is obviously a pair of shoes, this is something quite different for me. I'm more of a heel/boots person because I like feeling tall, it makes me feel better about myself.  However spring is coming and I wanted a cute pair of shoes that would be comfortable for those warm months. These little dollies are from Peacocks. I've never really shopped in Peacocks for myself and I was really Surprised at the quality considering everything is so cheap.

Price- £7
Link- Unfortunately I'm not able to get on the website to get the link but the name of the item is Shoe Bow Trim Basic Minni



This item is amazing, I never thought something of such a good price would be this good of a quality. This item was also from Peacocks. That's pretty much it haha.

Price- £8
Link- Viscose Print Vest



I forgot I had even ordered this top so when it came I was so happy because I had one more item than I'd remembered and that is a great feeling. This item is also from peacocks and it has a lovely satin feel to it and although I haven't worn it yet, I definitely think it's an item that can be dressed up and dressed down.

Price- £9.60
Link- Satin Printed Top



I've always had this theory that you shouldn't buy jewellery for yourself but I have changed my opinion completely and will be buying alooot more jewellery in the future, This little item is from Peacocks and I really love it.

Price- £3
Link- Simple Half Moon Necklace




This next item isn't very clear from the photos but it is a pair of cream/brown jeggings that zip at the side. These trousers are perfect! They are now one of my favourite items of clothing and I want more! I have a real issue with finding trousers and jeans that fit me as I have got hip but then I have very short skinny legs and a lot of the time I either end up with trousers too tight with baggy legs, to big round the waist and legs or perfect on the legs but I'm walking round pulling them up constantly. So putting these on and seeing and feeling what I did I felt amazing. Peacocks

Price- £12
Link- Side Zip Colour Jeggings

I'm not a very cardigan person, I'm much more of a jumper person but lately I've been feeling like jumpers cover up what you're actually wearing,  So I vow to wear more cardigans in spring so that I can show off my statement tops. This is from Peacocks.

Price- £10.00
Link- Feather Waffle Cardi

Okay guys so that's it for today. I'm actually going away for awhile. Don't worry, this will not effect you! Although my photo quality will not be as good as I will be using my phone. I've got some great post ideas cooking up and I can't wait to share them with you.
                                                                Bye for now. Kira xx

Get My Go-to Look!








Hi guys so today I'm going to show you how to achieve my current go-to look. My everyday make up look changes all the time but this is the look that I've been doing the last few weeks.


Step 1: So the first thing I do is prime my face with my W7 Prime Magic Camera Ready Primer and then put some Vaseline on my lips. I then move on to applying my concealer and foundation with my beauty blender. You can use what every products you usually use for this step but for those of you who would like to know what I'm using, for foundation I'm using Maybelline FIT in colour 115 ivory and for concealer I'm using W7 conceal me, not a massive fan of this concealer but it does its job so it'll do for now.

Step 2: I then go on to do my eye brows and contour. For my eyebrows; I firstly run an eyebrow brush through them and shape them how I want. I tend to focus on my eyebrows more when I've got my hair up as they're more noticeable. For my eyebrows I'm using Natural collection eye shadow in the colour mocha.


Step 3: I then go onto contouring my face and for that I am using Natural Collection bronzer in the colour Golden Glow. Not a massive fan of this bronzer for contouring in the winter as it is quite shimmery but this is all I've had for the past few weeks as I haven't had the chance to pick up my favourite bronzer which is the Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Contouring Bronzer. So I apply my bronzer under my cheek bones, on my jaw line, on my nose and on my forehead. I then blend everything in with my Rimmel Stay Matte Transparent Pressed Powder which I love. It feels very light weight on my face and it just gives a natural looking coverage.


Step 4: Next I go on to apply my eyeshadow, today I am using my Mini Technic Eye Shadow Pallet in the colour Ombre A Paupieres.


So first I take the lightest shade and sweep that across my eyelids. I then take the colour below that one and blend that from the outer corner of my eyelid into the middle. I then take the top middle colour and blend it out from the outer corner of my eyelid to down below my lower lash line. Finally I take the darkest brown on the pallet and blend that into the crease of my eyelid and carefully blend that out to achieve this look.



Step 5: I now apply my eyeliners. Firstly I apply a black pencil eyeliner, no fancy brand, any eyeliner will do and apply this on my top water line to make my eyelashes look darker. I then apply my NXY Jumbo Eye Pencil in 604 Milk to my lower water line to make my eyes look wider and more awake.


Step 6: I then go on to apply my mascara. The mascara I'm using for this look is W7 Big Lash Mascara in black. For a cheap mascara this is amazing, it makes my eyes look really big and my eyelashes look long and dark.

Step 7: For my final step I will be applying a lip product and the product I am using today is H&Ms
Matte Lip Pen in the colour peace and harmony. I have a love/hate relationship with this lip pen as sometimes it looks really good and other times it doesn't. The other fault with this product is that it breaks really easy, mine was actually broken when i opened it.


So that's it for this post, the final thing I did was spray my face with my Avon Make Up Setting Spray and then I was ready to go. Make sure to come back Wednesday for my next post
