MAC 90 minute make-up lesson

For my birthday I received a MAC 90 minute make-up up lesson. These lessons cost £50 however, you can spend that money on any products in MAC after the lesson. Its basically like a voucher with a make-up lesson included! 

We went to the MAC store and I sat down in this chair and then someone came over and we spoke about what sort of thing I wanted to concentrate on and what colours would suit me etc.

First of all I chose to concentrate mainly on my eyes and as I have green eyes the person who was doing my make up (Sabrina) decided that a purpley smokey eye would be good, to bring out my eyes, with a winged eyeliner. I have to admit I was a bit hesitant with the purple because I usually stick to safe neutral gold and browns when I do eyeshadow. However, i was very pleased with the end result! 

After doing my eyes and eyebrows we went onto the skin. I decided that I wanted a foundation which would give me a bit more coverage because I have red-thread veins on my cheeks and I do like to hide them because I don't really like them even though they're not very noticeable. Also because I have fairly dry skin she used moisturiser and primer to make it easier for the foundation to stay on. The foundation we used was the matchmaster SPF 15 foundation - and I have to say this is now one of my favourite foundations because it is very lightweight and can give you  flawless coverage. Then she used highlighter, bronzer and blusher in order to finish the look as well as a coral/pink lipstick.

In the end when it came to choosing a few products I chose the foundation, the eyeshadow palette (which had to be made due to the actual palette being discontinued) and a lip liner. The lip liner I chose was to match my 'rebel' lipstick which is from mac. This lipstick is one of my favourites and I needed a lip liner so asked which was the best to go with this shade and ended up getting the shade 'plum'.

Introduction..!

Hi, 

This is my first post! Let me tell you a bit about myself first - my name is Georgie and I'm 17 years old. I love nail art, fashion, make up, shopping and all things like that. I started to get interested in nail art when I was about 15 years old and have done it ever since. I am hopefully going to be able to use this to post some tutorials for nail art and other general fashion type posts!

I am very interested in fashion and hopefully am going to go into that sort of industry when I am older.  I think it would be the best type of industry for me to be in because I feel like that is something that I am fairly good at and am interested in.

Last summer I received work experience in the Harvey Nichols womenswear buying and thats when I started to get thinking about going more into the sort of fashion industry. It was a really interesting week and I feel like I gained a lot of experience working in that area, although the journey took forever to get there! It was a really insightful and helpful work experience and I am definitely more interested in looking at that sort of area in the future.

Anyway, I will post as much as I can of any type of things related to this blog eg. nails, fashion, make up etc! Hope you like it!
