Mirenesse Secret Weapon 24Hr Mascara

Mirenesse Secret Weapon Mascara Smudgeproof Easy Water Removal Lasts 24Hours No More Panda Eyes

I was recently given this amazing mascara by Mirenesse as a gift (not from the company but from a family friend). They had told me that this product does wonders and is great for sensitive eyes, which I have since I wear contacts. I have tried the product on, and I have to say it is amazing! It curls  my lashes as well as holding the curl for hours (I only had it on for around 5 hrs but it definitely lasted). My eye lashes appeared longer and more fuller. Not only that, my eyes appeared more awake and bigger (always a good thing). 

Secret Weapon 24Hr Mascara Original - Black
This produce has won many awards such as :
MOST INNOVATIVE MASCARA REAL SIMPLE MAGAZINE.
LUXE FOR LESS  BEST MASCARA SUNDAY MAGAZINE.
NEW WOMAN BEST MASCARA AWARD.
CULT FAVOURITE-DENMARK  Q MAGAZINE.
TRIED & TESTED TOP MASCARA BEST BEAUTY PRODUCTS 








This product is great for :
  • people who wear contacts/ sensitive eyes
  • against animal testing/ prefer natural products 
  • are too lazy to take off their makeup at night (im sure that's a lot of us)
  • want a product that will guarantee them 100% satisfaction
  • people who want longer sexier lashes
Here is the link to the product (if you're in Australia, but you can always change the location):

Try it out for yourself!You can't go wrong with this mascara, it has won multiple awards and its definitely a winner in my heart!

Keep smiling :)

Disclaimer: As mentioned above, this mascara was given to me by a close family friend who is not affiliated with the company in any way. It was paid for by her own money.

Crimson Eyes Makeup Tutorial



Crimson red is definitely in this season (esp for those in the US). Since we're ending winter in Aus, I thought I'd do a nice crimson look. 

I'm going to be using the two reds at the bottom next to the purple, the watermelon red, the brown with the dent in it and the darkest purple for the edge and the white/gold for the highlight.


Start with your eyes primed  and cover the base with rimmels white eye pencil just to allow the colours to really pop.


I've put on Covergirl's Smokey Eye colour blast cream shadow (I did a post on it a few days ago). This allows the eye shadows to really stick to the eye (this is what I have noticed) and since I cant wear the shadow by itself I'm using it as a base. 

I added the watermelon red all over my eye but stopping just  before my eyebrow


Now I'm using a red on the crease to really bring in the colour, sweeping it all across and bringing it down the lower lash line




I don't have it on the other eye, so you can see the difference.



Adding the brown/ purple to the outer edge and bringing it down to bring depth to the eyes





This picture is taken with flash so I can show you the colour however be mindful that my colours dont look so bright in real life as you will notice in the end pictures.




I used the ecotools brushes 

I used: covergirls smokey eye shadow(purple), eco tools brushes, white rimmel eye pencil, revlon black eye pencil and elizabeth ardens mascara. 

I added a touch of gold to the inner corner and lining bottom and top line with black eyeliner. Coat your lashes in mascara. 







And you are done! Here is a beautiful crimson look for you to wear day/ night (depending on your application of the colours). I love this look as it looks great on tanned skin! 

Hope you guys enjoyed!

Colour Me Happy Makeup Tutorial

Final Look!

Apply a eyeshadow base

Use any white eye pencil (this is Rimmel's white eyeliner)


Apply it all over the lid

With your finger spread it out all over your eye

Using an eyeshadow brush (Im using eco tools brushes)

Gently pat on a dark grey/blue all over the lid

Take some brighter blue and place this on the outer half od the lid

Use a purple for the crease and drag the colour forward to the inner eye

Should look something like this

This is what it looks like without the flash- this would look more 'realistic' to the shades of the colour in real life.


On the outer edge of the eye, pat on a hot pink colour

Like so

Now blend all the colours to make it look a little less harsh

Apply a light gold for the highlight and blend.
remember to bring the colours onto the bottom lash line as well.

Should look like this- you could end the look here if  you want it to be a bit soft or continue to add liner in the next steps.


Apply eyeliner (im using Maybellines Gel Liner) and start from the middle and drag the liner to the outer edge. I tend not to take my eyeliner in into the inner corner as this makes my eyes look smaller. You can change it around how you want it to suit your eyes.

Do a flick at the end of the eyes to add effect, line the bottom line as well and smudge to remove any harshness.
And Voila! You now have Hot Pink eyes :)

Keep Smiling :)
