Nudes for darker skintones...

So I finally took the plunge and started hunting for nudes. Being black I felt like it would just look silly on me because I wouldn't be able to find suitable colors, but hey hey hey i stand corrected. I played it safe and swiped a cheap few. Being in the UK, the new goto is MUA (what a wonderous creation). I haven't got any decent pictures as my cameras are playing tricks on me but anywho...



I bought shade 11 (bottom) and another one (top) that I have no idea what its called. Its really annoying that they do not have the names on the actual packaging, but i guess you can only get so much much for a pound.
Shade 11 is probably suitable for all skintones which is great :) its matte which is always a plus because u can just put a shimmer gloss ontop.
Shade unknown requires a bit of adjustments like gloss and maybe a liner in order to look just as acceptable. I only got them today so I'll probably post an update/review on them regarding wear in a week or two.

As I go on this quest of the nudes, I'm going to ascend with the budget overtime so I don't end up with over priced unused products. I think the next brands I check will probably be Sleek and BarryM. After that i'll go on to Inglot.

Please let us know if you are of color and own any nudes....

kisses,

What do u want!

What do u want?


Lately I’ve been considering beauty and fashion blogging but don’t want to do stuff that, I feel, has been over produced i.e. Foundation tutorials, Red lip tutorials, Eyebrow tutorials or that demonstration of the new crackling polishes that almost everyone is doing. I want to slip into the gap in the market. So I’m here to ask you, the viewers, what slot you would like to give me. If you’d like to see Outfit of The Days, tutorials and reviews that have been done but you want more of them, so be it. Whatever you feel is missing from our community here on the internet, express it and I will try my best to provide it for us. If there are products you’d like me to talk about or demo, fashion advice, relationship advice, whatever. Just let me know.
I’m not saying that the gurus are making mistakes or anything because I respect and appreciate each and every single one of them here online. I just don’t want to begin making videos that no one will watch because they have seen it hundreds of times already.

Love
