'Arabian Nights' Makeup Tutorial ft. Sleek Makeup

Hey Guys :)

Time for a new makeup tutorial, and it's another Arab inspired makeup look! I recently recreated a Rihanna look that was called 'Rihanna of Arabia' from a Harper's Bizaar Magazine Cover Shoot, and I also created a super dramatic Arab inspired look last month. It's easily one of my favourite makeup aesthetics to draw inspiration from!

Sleek Makeup just released today another limited i-Divine EyeShadow palette called 'Arabian Nights' which happens to co-inside with the end of Ramadan and the celebration of Eid Mubarak. Good timing Sleek!!

Cheryl Cole (Fernandez Versini) Signature Smokey Eye / Pink Lips Makeup Tutorial.

Hey Guys, 

The Gorgeous Cheryl Cole, now officially going by her new exotic (well exotic in the UK & Ireland anyhow!) married surname of Fernandez Versini, is very prolific in the press at the minute due to her recent surprise nuptials. And this has got everyone interested in her yet again, which of course prompted requests! I'm very happy to do one of her signature looks as it's super pretty yet easy to achieve and will suit just about everyone!!!

'Rihanna of Arabia' Makeup Tutorial

The real deal -v- my interpretation! 

When I saw the recent Harper's Bazaar Rihanna Cover shown above, I was totally compelled to recreate the beautiful makeup she wore. The look was beautifully applied by Rihanna's personal makeup artist Lora Arellano, (check out her instagram here) who I am a big fan of. 

I, of course, tweaked it a little as usual to suit myself and to personalise it, but it's more or less a direct copy of the original look!

MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF15 Foundation; EVERYTHING you need to know!

Hey Guys :)

I was running through the videos I've already done in which I've reviewed foundations and surprised myself to see I hadn't solely covered MAC's Studio Fix Fluid yet. (I did touch on it in this video)

This is easily the one foundation that I am most familiar with... that's out of every foundation to ever exist people!

I have been using this both on myself and in my kit for 10+ years and decided I may as well share my knowledge on all things to do with it.

Watch the video to get the full run-down as well as application etc.

Hope it helps!

Chat soon,

Shiv.

Latest Aussie Hair Goodies :)

Products sent for consideration*

It only took me forever but I finally finished off the 2 shampoos and 2 conditioners that I've been using for the past few months, which means I finally get to make a start on these guys. (They've been sitting on a shelf for over a month) 

The shampoo and conditioner are part of the Miracle Moist range which are designed for dry/damaged hair. They both contain Australian Macadamia Nut Oil which infuses the hair shaft with essential moisture. It also smooths out the hair helping to minimize frizz. They have the usual delicious floral scent which the Aussie products are known for.
