Happy New Year!

Happy New Year fellow bloggers! Hope 2009 is a good makeup year for you all! I celebrated last night with my friend, Hele. I don't usually enjoy NYE, it's always a bit of an anti-climax but last night was fab; really chilled out with cocktails, good music and great conversation.

Of course I will share our makeup looks with you all. Here are some pics;

Shameless posing!

Here's a better look at our last makeup look of 2008;

That's me on the left and Hele on the right. You may be a bit confused as to my true identity as I have been using Hele as my makeup model for a few of my posts! But here I am at last. 

Holly's makeup;
  • Face; YSL Perfect Touch foundation, MSF Natural in medium, Bobbi Brown Eye Brightener, Mac StudioFinish concealer, NARS Sin blusher, NARS Laguna Bronzer and NARS Copacobana multiple as a highlighter. 
  • Eyes; Tesco Barbara Daly Eye base (great UDPP dupe), MAC Naked Lunch all over lid, MAC Shale as a shader, NARS Night Flight in the crease, Bobbi Brown Sapphire gel liner, Estee Lauder Smoked Eye pencil in smoked sapphire under eye and Chanel Exceptionel mascara. 
  • Lips; NYX Black Label lipstick in India. 
Hele's makeup;
  • Face; BareMinerals powder in light, Bobbi Brown Eye Brightener, NARS Sin blusher, Nars Laguna and Casino bronzers, NARS Albatross highlighter. 
  • Eyes; Tesco eye base, MAC Femme-Fi eyeshadow, Barry M Bronze Dazzle Dust, NARS Surabaya I eyeshadow, MAC Mineralized Inter-view trio shadow (brown), MAC Teddy Eye Kohl and MAC Fibre Rich Lash.
  • Lips; GOSH lipstick in Darling and Estee Lauder High Gloss in pearl. 
As you can see we are both wearing falsies; we are not this gifted in the eyelash department! I wore Shu Uemura winged corner lashes (around £15!) and Hele wore her cheap and cheerful N.Y.C lashes, £1.99 from Superdrug! These are a great buy; she prefers them to her MAC and Shu Uemura ones. 

Anyone else got their drunken New Year's photos to share?

I'm so confused i thought you were hele! i saw the pic on hele's blogger thing and i swore you two looked identical! haha how silly! you're so pretty though, both of you! great make-up and now im thinkingofgetting barbara dalys eye base instead of primer potion!

3 for 2 on all Tesco makeup at the mo, go get it ASAP. It seems identical to UDPP and I much prefer it being in a pot, so much easier to apply. It's £3 something, can't remember exactly. There're some really good things in the line, the concealer I got is identical to my MAC studiofinish concealer x
