Red Shiny Happy People

On Red Nose Day my students decided they wanted to raise money by apply some glam/crazy/over the top makeup. Everybody who knows me knows that this is normal look for me in everyday life! So I came up with a glitter bug makeup creation.



Glittery can be a bit of pain to apply however when done can look amazing, especial on a night out.
So to create this look I used the fabulous Paris Berlin Glitter pots, you can buy their stuff at http://www.parisberlin.com/
I got these when I went to London IMATs 2 years ago, I went a little over the top with spending and just had to get 5 different colours.....

Now the good thing about this glitter appose to other glitters on the market is that one it really does bling bling shine in the light and two the partials are small therefore it doesn't irritate or scratch your eye like others can. The colours are beautiful as well, they are so rich and the silver one second from the end has like a rainbow style glitter reflection, its amazing!

The best way I know of applying glitter to the eye lids is using Duo glue, sparingly! This application will last you all day! Use a cotton bud to roll it on the desired area you want to (make sure you keep your eye closed throughout application or else comedy sketch will unfold!) Obviously you will get drop down and glitter on your face, to remove this just get some sellotape and wrap it around your hand, get some of the sticky out and use it to stick the glitter off your face.
Make sure that you do all the eye shadow colours before you apply the glitter.

And there you have it! Glitter bug makeup!

I have another announcement also, I shall be attending another Vintage fair with the fabulous Manchester Vintage: Join the Revolution on the 7th April.
