Mermaid/festival glitter summer makeup



I saw the glittery/festival makeup in primark and they inspired me to do this look. I wanted pink eyeshadow though because I wear pink eyeshadow a lot so I already know it kind of suits me so I picked up 2 pink eyeshadows from kiko, they did have an eyeshadow palette on primark with pink in it that looked nice and was only about £2.50 but I didn't see the point in buying a palette just for 1 shade. I was planning on going all out and using the face jewels aswel but I got a bit bored after I got this far since I wasn't actually going anywhere and thought it looked OK as it was.
The mini lipstick set from primark is pretty cool I wore the silver (2nd to last swatch) over my bright pink Mac candy yum yum lipstick to make it ombre and I like the way it turned out, however I don't think I'd wear these on there own.

I used both kiko pink smart color eyeshadows 15 and 16, primark liquid liner a bit of gold eyeshadow in the inner corners (kiko 17 highpigment eyeshadow.
Primark foundation stick in tan (first time using it) and a bit of Ivory down the centre (I already had Ivory).
I used the primark blue glitter put out of the glitter pot set with the face glue to put below the inner corners of my eyes to look like mermaid tears. And I thought it looked good next to the pink eyeshadow.
I put some of the primark glitter palette, a silver glittery shade on my cheek bones to look like glitter highlight you can kind of see it in the pic above in the right side (I put it on both sides but it isn't showing up much in the pic)
I used some cheap false lashes. I was gonna put jewels above my eyebrows or on my cheat bones or under outer corners of my eyes but I gave up at this point, although I'd probably do that if I was going out to a festival or fancy dress.
