FOTD, HOTD & OOTD - with my sister!

Hello all!
This post is a pretty jam packed one, with a Face Of The Day, Hair Of The Day and Outfit Of The Day, which includes my sister!




If you would like to know how to create this look, then please keep on reading~
First thing's first, apply a moisturiser all over your face. I'm using Simple's face moisturiser and then I used Nivea's eye cream.





After that, I applied NYC face primer and, using a Real Techniques stippling brush, I applied Etude House Mineral BB Cream.





I then used MAC Painterly Paint Pot as a primer for my eyelids. 




I used the Urban Decay anniversary palette mainly for this look - I used the colour Deeper all over my eyelid and then I blended the harsh edge with a Real Techniques shader brush.





Once that was done, I used the colour Naked from the Naked Palette from Urban Decay and used it in my crease. Then I used M.I.A from the Urban Decay anniversary palette on the outer V of my eye.






As a brow highlight, I used Soap & Glory's Vanilla shade and sweeped it under my brow and used it to blend out the dark brown edges. 




Now we can fill in our brows~ I'm using the Urban Decay brow box. I used the lighter shade at the start of my eye brows and then I used the darker shade to fill the rest of my eye brow in. After that,  I used Dolly Winks eye brow mascara in Cocoa.





Going back into the Urban Decay anniversary palette, I used the colour Chase near my tear duct on my lower lash line.





Then, I used M.I.A again and lined the rest of my lower lash line. After that, I used the colour Vanilla as an inner corner highlight.





I applied concealer under my eyes and any other problem areas that I have on my face and set my makeup with a powder.




I lined my waterline with a white eyeliner - you can use a nude colour if you wish, or, if you wanted to wear this in the night, use a brown or black eyeliner for a more intense look~




I used a black pen liner to line my eyes - you can use a liquid liner, gel liner, pencil liner, whatever floats your boat. Then I used Sporty Girl's Pump Up Lash mascara.





After that I used EOS Lip Balm and Natural Collections Pink Cloud blush - I don't like applying lipstick before I do my hair because I find that my hair gets stuck to my lips and it's not nice, at all.





Now we can move on to hair~!
This step is optional: apply a heat protecting spray to your hair and brush it in. After that, get your blow dryer out and dry your hair.






I end up looking like Cousin It when I dry my hair...




After i've dried my hair, I turn on my straighteners. While they're warming up, I section my fringe off away from the rest of my hair - I tend to put it back behind my ears. When my straighteners are ready, I put them onto my fringe, pull them forward and turn them into me as I get near the ends.




You should get something like this - and I know it looks rather ridiculous right now~




Take the top layer of your fringe and repeat the process.





Keep doing this until you're happy - remember to run your fingers through your hair, this way it's not going to look silly having a cylinder as a fringe and you'll be able to tell what needs doing again, etc.
Once you're happy, just tie it back in a bun - sorry, no party in the back.





Hooray! Your bowl fringe is done!
I wiped off my lip balm and applied MAC's Creme Cup lipstick.





And that is it! 
Now for OOTD - I guess it should be OOTN (Outfit Of The Night) because this is what my sister and I wore for my uncle's leaving/birthday meal.
