no videos!

hi guys, so i know i havent made a  video for a while but i've been super ill. i got over one illness and im onto the next - so stupid. i did actually get round to recording two videos, "my skin care routine" and "my new foundation routine" but my facking microphone was off. it was perfect lighting and quality aswell. hm. but, anyway, its just to say that ive been feeling so inspired lately about videos! i cant wait to get recording again cause i have some great ideas coming up. can i also just note that ive been hugely inspired by kandeejohnson and petrilude, who are both on youtube, so go check them out (thought i imagine the vast majority of you are already loyal subscribers - i know i am.)


looks, videos, tutorials coming up:
  • haul video - yes, i know ive made three in a row now, but ive joined up to makeupalley - my username is hannahkeeleyspelman if anyones interested, and ive swapped for quite a few things there. i also went to barry m the other day and got an order through of mac and from the E.L.F studio line.

  • anne hathaway "white witch" inspired look - from the new Tim Burton film Alice in Wonderland. There wasn't a white witch in the original movie by disney but there is in the re-creation, so I shall be trying out that look.

  •  a queen of hearts inspired look, again from the new Alice in Wonderland and all the credit for this idea goes to kandeejohnson, her recreation of the look was amazing. And I am desperate to try out hiding my eyebrows using the gluestick method - petriludes video really intrigued me!

  •  Makeup for fall - bold reds, burgundy, burnt oranges and golds. Im loving all the videos that have been coming out by the gurus I subscribe too, theyve all been great and I can't wait to do my version of fall eyes :)

  • Bridget Bardot inspired makeup (and perhaps hair...) I love this woman, she is an icon to me. More so than Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn. I loved the muted matte look she carries and the kind of sexy roll out of bed attitude that comes with it. She looks statement but natural. Can't wait to do this look.

  • Classic pin up look - I do have a look like this called "retro pin up" but lets face it, the qualitys awful and it looks like somethings died on my head. I love pin up looks, I do them quite frequently on a day to day basis. I will also do hair because i wear my hair in a pin up style quite alot too. 


  •  Cheryl Cole inspired look - she's gorgeous and no one can say she isnt! she does many different looks so im gonna experiment and perhaps do my favourite, or even more than one. :) 


  •  Rihanna Inspired look - now honestly, i dont like rihannas look at all, and though i'd never wear it, i think her makeup is great. It'll be fun to re-create and play around with so im looking forward to doing this one too!

long time no update! makeupalley & hauling.

so i've been hauling quite a biiit lately, i got two mac eyeshadows from the "love that look" collection which ive wanted for aaaages - i originally saw "grand entrance" in manchester airport but they didn't have it in, actually, the mac counter had NOTHING that i wanted in stock. so i bided my time, and bought them online, and i was actually watching this video... (look below) and i looooved the girls eyeshadow, and it turned out it was "rated r" again from the love that look collection, so i got that aswell. i ordered some shizzle from elf studio which i was suuuper excited about, and i've been make-up alleying to the max lately so ive got lots of lovely stuff coming to share with you all in a haul and swatches coming soon. i dont wanna do a haul on the elf and eyeshadows just yet, because in a couple of days i'll be showing you the makeup alley and i have way too many haul videos up right now (N), but when it is up remember to check that out :) the girl below hasnt actually done a tutorial on her eyes so i kind of figured out how to do it myself, and i will at some stage show you - because i love the look!
