#gettingartyforanxiety what is it?

Hey guys and gals,

Today I'm talking to you about this amazing project I'm being involved in. The wonderful Molly from lyonsnotes.blogspot.co.uk decided it was time to get the blogging world talking about anxiety and mental health issues. 

So the idea of the project is to create a nail art design reflecting your personality, the design should have a meaning behind it for example the perfectly straight lines are because I like things to be organised or random spots of rainbow colours because I'm a bit quirky. I won't go into to much detail but the link to Molly's post is http://lyonsnotes.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/gettingartyforanxiety-blogger.html


For me this is something close to home as my great grandma suffered from depression and anxiety all her life, anxiety also effects me its something that so many people suffer silently so we need to start shouting about it! 

I really hope you get involved, if your interested Molly is waiting for your tweets and will be happy to explain in full detail what the project is about. 


I really hope you lovely people get involved 

Au revoir 

Cole xoxo

She's a vintage rose

Well I'm getting more inventive with my post titles :/ Today I have a face of day for you, on Sunday me and my family went out for a meal for my Nana and Grandads 40th wedding anniversary. We were in a huge rush to get out the door as we had only got back from Abersoch mere hours before so I didn't get time to take outfit pictures but I managed to get a few snaps of my makeup.
I now realize that there is absolutely no need for me to take such a close up picture. First of base wise I blended my Maybelline dream pure BB cream in light with my fingers then concealed with my Maybelline Fit me concealer in 15. I then powdered with the collection pressed powder in 18 ivory with my real techniques contour brush. For blush I dusted FashionistA juicy apricot lightly on the apples of my cheeks with the Eco tools blush brush. I then moved onto my eyes, first of I applied a thin layer if the Mua pro base eye primer on my lid and then blended up towards my eyebrow. Then taking the middle shade from my bourjois smoky eyes trio in rose vintage using my Eco tools eye blend brush all over the lid and then taking the darkest shade from the trio I used my Eco tools crease brush to blend it into the crease and blending. I then took The body shop carbon brown eye definer in my waterline and the seventeen backlash mascara on my top lashes. Finally for lips I took my old trusty Natural collection rose bud lipstick.

Review --- Topshop eye crayon in mystical.







This was such a bargain I popped into topshop last weekend and picked this up in the sale for £1, from what I've found on various blog posts that this retailed at £7.50. I don't know if you can still pick it up but my topshop seemed to have loads left. So onto the actual review... 


 The colour of this reminds me of the Maybelline colour tattoo in on and on bronze but with more gold. It's very creamy, glides onto the eyelid and blends really nicely. The shimmer is very finely milled and doesn't look to much. The lasting power is fantastic I find this lasts somewhere in the region of 6-8 hours without creaseing. If you can get your hands on this I would really highly recommend it, it really is a fantastic product. I cannot believe they have discontinued it :( 


 What do you guys think of the Topshop make up range? I'm definitely impressed
