Lash Glue nightmares are over!

Hello there!

I know that probably a lot of you knew about this, but I didn´t and I am so excited!

I was in need, but really in a big need of lash glue. My last one, I don´t know why, start smelling so bad (normally the lash glue smells horrible, but my glue, everytime I opened it can kill people just with the smell!) and it had this weird yellow going to grey color that wasn´t very normal thing, so I thought that was time to get a new one.

When I buy the lash glue in Madrid, I usually go to Burlesque (I will put in the end their facebook page, they are amazing! Incredible people with the most amazing products in makeup and wigs that you can imagine), they have the dupe of the DUO Adhesive for just 6€, so I prefer to get this one instead of paying 12€ for the same product in MAC.

 Dupe for this one down here!

But here in London I don´t have my beloved Burlesque store... So I went into the hunt of a new lash glue.

Obviously I knew that in MAC I can get the DUO for 10 pounds, but I wanted to find something else. Here in the UK the people wear way more lashes than we do in Spain, so here there is a lot more of lash models, and of course, more glue types!

In YouTube I saw a lot of gurus using the black lash glue, the one with brush, for single lashes, but in Spain if you don´t order that from the internet, it´s impossible to get it on a store.

And finally I found the perfect lash glue. Or at least for me it is! Is the Eyelure Lashfix. It comes in a crystal bottle, and the thing that I like the most from this glue is the applicator. Is a bar that allows you to put as much glue as you want. The regular bottle for me it was sometimes a nightmare, because when I pressed it to get a little bit of glue, usually came out a lot of glue... but with this applicator is more easy for me, and I think that for everyone (and for beginners is perfect)

So for those that didn´t know about this glue, or for the people that never give it a chance to it, you must try it, is really good!

Don´t forget to visit Burlesque Facebook Page and give it a like!

Hope you like the post, and see you on the next one.

Dark lips are coming...

Hi everyone!

For this Fall season, one of the biggest tendencies (and my favourite) that is coming: the bold lips on dark colors like burgundy, plum, dark plumy purples, etc...
And the funny thing is that even though we are not yet in the season, the people have started to wear this kind of lips. They say that this colors are hard to wear and not everybody likes it, but for me are the best ones, and I know that a lot of people always have wonder at least once how it will look on itself this kind of colors.

I have observed one thing that I think is a very important thing to keep in mind. When you wear this kind of colors, always try to use a lip pencil. Not only because it will help you to define your lips much better, do it because you will prevent any possible bleeding from the dark lipstick.

It doesn´t matter if you are wearing the most beautiful plum color, the only thing that people will see if you don´t use a lip pencil will be the lipstick bleeding in your lips and it will seem that you just had a hard makeout and you didn´t fix your lips after that.

(I found this image in tumblr and you can see the bleeding thanks to the black lipstick that the person is wearing)

Sometimes people don´t use the lip liners because they said is not easy to line the lips. Practice makes the master, people. What you can do is buy a cheaper red lip liner and try to do it in your home until you do it like a pro. It takes time, but in the end you will line your lips in a second, and when this kind of trends comes, you will be avalaible to wear dark lipsticks perfectly.

My favourite lip liner ever are the MAC Prolongwear because this are the only ones that stays all day long on my lips, after trying a big lot of different brands. On the drugstore side I will say that Rimmel London, Essence and Peggy Sage are my favourite brands.

So this fall don´t forget your dark lipstick and lip liner!
See you on the next post,
Lor.
