lomography 004


LITERALLY THE BEST SET OF PHOTOS I'VE EVER TAKEN I'M SO STOKED OVER THIS ROLL OF FILM I LOVE IT

shot with a lomo lc-a that's got a bit of a back story to it: my babushka brought it over from russia as a gift earlier this year and i was all like omg i'm gonna document my summer on this an it's gonna be cute af
so i took it to t in the park, my bag got stolen in the middle of the night, i cried for hours and went home and 3 weeks later the police found the bag with everything safe nd sound in it (apart from my money obvs but i only had £15 so who cares). this camera has had a more exciting life than me how sad is that

new age

 base: bourjois healthy mix serum foundation, mac mineralize concealer, stila angel light whitening powder foundation, clinique chubby stick sculpting contour, nyx blush in taupe
eyes: maybelline eye studio lasting drama gel eyeliner, kiko glamorous eye pencil in 415
lips: kiko glamorous eye pencil in 415, collection lipstick in scorned

it's a lot easier to stick on a pair of falsies than it is to draw them on with eyeliner let me tell u

usually i stick to yer standard "pretty" makeup, but every so often i like looking a bit weird (though gotta say i did feel kinda naked without any hair framing my face)

so soap and glory attempted skincare


not impressed, let's start w/ that.

the cleanser ain't the hottest thing out there, i bought it as a replacement for cleansing oil and it just doesn't remove makeup as well so i gotta throw a micellair water into the mix. works gr8 as a morning cleanser though, it says it's a 4-in-1 but i wouldn't read too much into that cause one of the claims is "energizes" and like honestly wtf does that even mean
smells a bit funky too

the exfoliator hasn't got huge chunks of shit in it à la st ives but instead is way more gentle and leaves your skin soo smooth and soft. also it contains salicylic acid which as we all know is really good for some reason BUT my skin just doesn't agree with something in this & made my skin break out hella bad. if your skin isn't an overly sensitive whiny asshole like mine is you might like this (but i'd have half of lush's skincare range on standby just in case)

eyesmaybelline eye studio lasting drama gel eyeliner, laura mercier long lash mascara
lipsmaybelline eye studio lasting drama gel eyeliner, mac mineralize concealer

literally just wanted to see what i would look like with extreme contouring. it's not showing up 100% but trust me the sides of my face were dark af & i'm already missing having any sort of cheekbone definition (the blending isn't perfect but i ran out of clean brushes sry bout it)

lil uni room tour just 4 the banter


look how cute my room is tho!!! so proud ♡♡♡
i'd show you my storage and ensuite but let's be real they ain't that photogenic and there's one too many bottles of vodka lying around for it not to be embarrassing - but let's gloss over that and turn our attention to how that last photo is the view from my window, NOT BAD AT ALL HUH (yes that's a castle)

few other things of note: i downsized my makeup collection so the majority of it can now fit in four muji drawers & i love it so much, i feel like i'm actually appreciating and using every single product i own u feel?? also turned the corkboard behind my desk into a makeshift necklace hanger using drawing pins (talk about using ur initiative)
although i have around twice the storage space i had at home there's still nowhere to put my keyboard so it's just sitting at the bottom of my bed. gotta keep it casual yknow

and no i don't actually keep my cacti in direct sunlight if u were worried, just put them there 4 the #aesthetic
