TIPS AND TRICKS (Makeup)
FIRSTLY - I started by moisturising my skin so it was nice and smooth and ready for a lot of makeup application!
SECONDLY - After 5 minutes of waiting for the moisturiser to settle in, I primed my face ready for foundation.
THIRDLY - I then applied my foundation and used my Real Techniques Beauty Sponge to help give the flawless feel.
FOURTLY - The Kardashians are all big up on their contour so I started on contour pretty much straight away. I usually do this last but I decided to start with it because it is a bit part of this look. So basically, I started using my Fit Me Concealer by Maybelline and drew lines on my face where I wanted my contour to be. I then blended upwards using my Real Techniques Beauty Sponge. I applied the concealer on my forehead, under my cheek bones, nose and under my lower lips so help accent these features on my face.
FIFTHLY - I then started on brows which I will link here.
SIXTHLY - I primed my eyes and started with a small amount of M3 on a fluffy brush and blended this into my crease.
SEVENTHLY - I then blended M2 into my crease and outer corner of my lid.
EIGHTLY - I then applied M1 and M7 into my crease to darken up the look. I also brought this into the centre of my lid.
NINETHLY - I applied a white colour from a Seventeen Palette that I've had for ages in the corner of my eye to brighten it up a bit.
TENTHLY - I started on my lashes which I curled and then applied 3 coats of mascara to. The Kardashians are all about lashes so I wanted to make sure mine looked long and voluminous!
ELEVENTHLY - I decided to bake. This is the process of highlighting and contouring. You basically apply a hell of a lot of powder onto a brush and apply it on your face where you want your contour / highlight to be. You have to apply a generous amount and wait for a while. I also used some setting spray by Urban Decay while I was baking so that the colour stayed in place.
TWELVETHLY - Once I had waited for about 10 minutes, I applied a small amount of 'Watt's Up' Highlighter on the highest points of my cheeks.
THIRTEENLY - I applied a small amount of Rimmel London's Lip Liner in 'Obsession' to the middle of my lips to give that ombre / 3D effect.
FOURTEENTHLY - I applied my Smashbox Cosmetics Lip Liner all of my lips and then I applied my Max Factor Lipstick in 'Star Dust Pink'
FINALLY - I applied some more makeup setting spray and I was good to go!
TIPS AND TRICKS (HAIR)
FIRSTLY - I brushed through my hair. (simple as that!) (I wish)
SECONDLY - I brushed through my hair extensions which are the same length as my hair. This is because I wanted to create volume in my hair and make it look a bit thicker. I also was unsure if Khloe was wearing extensions in this picture but her hair looks really thick so I thought I might as well use some!
THIRDLY - I then clipped up my hair.
FOURTHLY - I turned on my hair straighteners.
FIFTHLY - I applied some heat protectant spray.
SIXTHLY - I then started to curl my hair with the hair straighteners by flipping my hair one way and then flipping it the other way (I will do an in depth tutorial on this because it is so hard to explain but you could just loosely curl your hair)
SEVENTHLY - I then repeated all of this and applied some hair spray.
FINALLY - I puffed up my hair and I was good to go!
So guys if you like this look let me know!

Until next time,
