Last night, I was getting ready for work. Clothes and what not, and my lovely sister offered to do my hair; and being the ungirlie girl I am naturally I jumped at the chance. I adored how she did my hair, so I did my make-up like I do most days, and something about my having my hair done and my makeup looking better than usual gave me a burst of confidence, which lasted me the whole night. The hair style is below;
It looks chilled and almost as if I haven't done much yet the braid going from one side to the other shows effort, My sister added come classy clips which gave the hair some OOMF!
I enjoy getting my hair done, styled and what not, it makes me feel so put together. I myself I am not very good with hairstyles, I basically either have it up in a half arsed bun or a masses of curls over my shoulders, my natural hair.
So the hairstyle made me feel elegant, which does not happen often if I do say. I am looking forward to perhaps learning this style myself when I change my colour back to brown.
So once my hair was done, I did my own makeup. And I was so impressed by how good my eyeliner turned out, it a long battle I've bad with eyeliner, we aren't on the best of terms.
But I was super happy, I felt so happy and confident, I love it when hair and makeup can brighten my mood and make me feel good about myself. Granted, I do not believe in completely depending on them for self happiness, but they are definitely a good boost. I keep it simple with makeup;
Foundation: No7 Beautifully Matte, Oil Free Callico (the colour that matches my skin.

Eye Liner: Miss Beauty London fine eye liner
Eye Shadow: w7 Colour Me BUFF natural nudes; colour; dust
Mascara: Collection Lengthening Mascara: length and definition
Lipstick: Avon no clue on colour.
I got to work early naturally I had to take advantage of the killer lightening in the little break room.
I'm also in love with this Snapchat filter, it has been my favourite from the beginning! So I felt good at work, which is a positive because I am constantly working with people and patrionts, a bit of self-confidence goes a long way. It was good to be as conscious about how I look. My makeup lasted the whole time too, which is always a bonus; reapplying can be a nightmare.
I ended up finishing work early due to technical difficulties, this was slightly saddening because I adore work and for the first time in a long time I felt the need to be seen. I looked and felt good and wanted other people to see that too.
When I got home I was tired naturally, my hair got taken out as I was soon to be heading to sleep. Even with my hair down I was still feeling myself. If anything I felt just as good as I had before going to work. I did not want to take my makeup off at all, I felt sexy and happy. As it happens, I did the thing women aren't supposed to do; fall asleep without wiping their makeup off. I did have intentions too but as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out for the count. I was thankful when I woke up to no stained pillows and half my liner in tact. I did wipe it off though as soon as I got out of bed.
Also - I enjoyed writing this post, I haven't really done a 'beauty' blog post before, or anything related but I genuinely enjoyed talking about this stuff. This isn't a thing I could do all the time but I think if I'm having a special occasion or Feelin' Myself again then I'll definitely be making a blog post about, please share and follow, and would you like more posts like this?
