What Look Am I Rockin'?.... Spring Time!

As I have fair number of blog posts to update my blog with I thought I would start with a 'Face of the Day Look'. I recently had my hair cut and coloured ( for the first time in a salon! I know! Goodbye box dyes!) and I changed my hair style after a few years of having it long and layered. Now it's only been 3 days with it but I am loving it more and more each day.

Originally I had wanted a 'lob' but decided against it as I wasn't ready to chop just that much off my locks so I opted for a shoulder length layered cut. It is different from my original style as I use have it cut into a 'V' as the back ( it's basically the layers that form the V). I then had my hair coloured a deep red and finally ombred with bleach for 30 minutes to reveal a lighter but more vibrant red.

So that's my hair style explained :P As for makeup, yesterday I popped out to the mall to do a spot of grocery shopping and ventured into Inglot to search/swatch their peachy eyeshadows....and what happened?! I walked out with 3 products! I bought a gel liner in 94 ( a shimmery brown based champagne), body sparkles glitter in 64 ( bronze glitter which looks gorgeous on top of the gel liner) and last but not least an eyeshadow in 15 ( orangey-bronze pearl finish). So I will be playing around with them to see how I can wear them in different ways.

That brings me onto my 'look' I chose for today. I was originally just going to pop on my BB cream and a bit of blush and liner and that's it as I'm not going anywhere today. But oh my goodness lately I have been watching SO many YouTube videos on beauty bloggers and their hauls, looks and reviews. I like literally need to STOP! But it is so good seeing how the apply products and the way in which they use them too.

I decided I wanted to try out a product I bought yesterday, the Inglot gel liner in 94 which I believe is from the 'Noble' collection. I then transformed this look from a natural day time look into a spring time look with a pop of colour. I also gained inspired from Brazilian beauty Camila Coehlo ( she is absolutely stunning and I LOVE her tutorials!)

Below are a few photo's and as always I have noted down the products used to achieve this look.
