Lighter Hair

Yes, I did it again, I dyed my hair a lighter shade of ash brown. I liked my hair really dark but I feel comfortable with it lighter, I feel back to normal now :)

I used L'oreals Light ash brown and then added about 5 packets of foil highlights to the front of my hair so that I could have lighter shades of brown running through it, to lift it a little.

I did all of this myself at home, with no help!

It's not a drastic change, but lighter hair just feels fresher for the summer - for me, for some reason! I can wear black now without feeling like I look like I'm going to a funeral.

In these photos, my hair has been washed, and then blasted dry with the hairdryer and I run a fat bristle brush through it, just to style it a little, oh and I applied a tiny bit of coconut oil to my hair whilst it was damp.

On to the makeup! I got all Illamasqua'ed up...

Face Base: Bobbi Brown skin foundation, Elf concealer under the eyes.

Cheeks: Illamasqua powdered metal Erzule, to contour and bronze. Nars Sertao as blush. Loving this combo!

Eyes: Illamasqua pigment Furore all over lid and Erzule blended into crease. UD Zero on upper and lower lashline, L'oreal telescopic explosion mascara.

Lips: Illamasqua Soul sheer lipgloss. (I think this would look amazing over something like Gosh Darling) It's soo pretty! L'oreal Cappuccino lipliner.
