The Charlotte Tilbury 'Feline Flick' Method

The Charlotte Tilbury Method Feline Flick Winged Liner

Winged liner, cat eye, feline flick, eyeliner flick - whatever you want to call it - is a method that challenges even the steadiest hands sometimes. It happens to be a look I adore on my own eyes, but I still wouldn't call myself 'foolproof' at it. So i figured why not turn to the #1 makeup artist in the world, and general 'Feline Flick' aficionado herself, Charlotte Tilbury

The Friday Face | Peach Monochrome

Occassionaly I like my makeup so much I take a picture of myself and post it on the internet. I find it kind of terrifying, honestly
Recently I've been really digging the whole monochrome look, namely with shades of soft peach, and apparently others are too, because it seems to be the look I get most complimented on! So here's a breakdown of my current favourite peach hued cosmetics for how I got this look:

This Just In | Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Mad Max Brown

kat von d tattoo liner in mad max brown review and swatch

Well over a year ago I blogged about how Kat Von D's Tattoo Liner in Trooper was the answer to all my black liquid liner prayers. Well it's finally been released in another shade and I couldn't be more thrilled. Naturally, I stalked all my local Sephora's until I could get my hands on it - before it was even released on shelves. Determination, friends. 

The Tiniest of all Eyeliner Brushes... and its Under $5

Winged Eyeliner Cat Eye Feline Flush makeup Brush

 Winged liner is a staple look of mine, and finding the best eyeliner brush for the job is a forever challenge I continuously torture myself with. I adore my Make Up For Ever 250 brush for its smooth application, but occasionally you want something even tinier, even more precise. Something that makes your feline flicks look like they could cut like a knife. I think I just found it.

The Little Black Liner I Was Waiting For

Tarte Cosmetics Tarteist Clay Paint Eye Liner

If you've been reading GLG now for a while you will know all about my obsession with finding the perfect black eyeliner. You see, I am a pretty picky customer when it comes to finding the right LBL (little black liner, naturally). At the top of the list are three must haves: it must be matte, it must be super black and it must be waterproof. So when a brand I've come to love for long wearing makeup came out with an innovative new black liner, you can better believe I was all over that...

Sunday Steals | NYC Liquid Eyeliner

Coming at you all with another makeup steal, and this one really is a bargain to boast about - a whopping $2.49 was spent. That's right, get out your piggy banks and count your pennies for this one!

SAVING FACE | Party Proof Makeup


The holidays are in full swing and while you're rocking around the Christmas tree your makeup might be migrating other places. Here are my top makeup picks for a face that makes it all night long and stays photoready for those memory making moments.

REPURCHASES # 2 | So Good I Bought Them Again

l'oreal butterfly mascara, jack black lip balm, first aid beauty facial radiance pads, mac chromagraphic pencil, make up for ever brush

I'm a self professed makeup junkie, but sometimes I come across something that is just so good I don't want to try anything else (er, ok maybe I want to try, but I also want to repurchase the product I know I love) Let's chat about five recent purchases I loved enough the first time to go another round with....

BIGGER BRIGHTER EYES | With 5 Products


I wasn't born with the biggest eyes in the world (although, my mother will tell you otherwise) but I've learned over the years a few tips and tricks to make my eyes really pop. Here's five of my favourite products that never let me down getting that bright as a daisy doll eyed effect.

WINGING IT | Benefit They're Real Push Up Liner

Benefit They're Real Push Up Liner
You know what "they" say right? Never ask a girl with winged liner why she's late. 
I love me a good flick of liner, but brush + pot of gel liner = time I don't always have. Plus, it seems like every time I'm in the mood for some dramatic liner all my liner brushes are dirty (note to self, wash brushes more often!) So imagine my excitement when I heard about an innovative new product that combined the look and texture of gel/cream liner, with the convenience of a pen applicator. Perfect, right? Let's get into the nitty gritty...

THIS JUST IN | Urban Decay Waterproof Cream Eyeliner in Perversion


If you read this post from way back in the summer, you may remember me professing my love for Urban Decay's 24/7 Pencil in Perversion. It's just something I always have on hand for a quick blackening of the waterline or tightline, a smudgy smokey eye or just straight up sooty inky matte black liner. Urban Decay offered up a liquid liner under the same shade name, but it just never float my boat, and then this bad boy was released and I knew it had to be mine...
