Hey Gorgeous! It’s Christy
My 16th Birthday was last Tuesday and the Sunday before I had a small birthday dinner with a few of my close friends. Today I’ll just be sharing my birthday make up & the products I used. I will also include an image of Carmelita, Grace and I before the dinner.
You cannot see my outfit clearly in the images but if curious, my dress was from General Pants & Shoes were from The Iconic. I also did some slight curls in my hair with the Nume Lustrum set using the Medium sized barrel. Before curling my hair I always use a heat protection spray and recently bought the Tresemme Thermal Stying Heatspray. I also tried out a new hairspray by Cedel which is coconut scented *fave scent*, it seemed to work quiet well and definitely left it smelling delicious.

You’re really good at eye make up whereas I suck. Really. Maybe I should experiment more?
Love the products. I don’t wear a lot of make up so I don’t have this many products. But I love seeing pictures of make up products.
Thanks for sharing babe! I love coming over to your blog 🙂 ❤

Thank you so much ! I think experiment and practice is key. A good idea is to purchase one of those cheap palettes with load of colours just to try out new looks and see what is good for your skin and eye colour. But I am always looking for new inspiration and love venturing out into the unknown.
Thanks for your lovely comment 🙂 xx – Christy

Thanks lovely ! I have been enjoying the NYX base, I think its a cheaper alternative to the Mac paint pots although I have not tried them.

I do have a MAC paint pot that I use as a base, so maybe I’ll check out this NYX one, and see if there’s any similarities. Thank you!
