It’s certainly no secret that I fancy the pants off of Natasha Khan, the women behind the incredible band that is Bat For Lashes.
Natasha is known for being quite mysterious and spiritual, possessing an indescribable other-worldly aura about her. A quick Google Image search and you’ll soon see that she appears to be quite fond of extravagant eye make up too. I couldn’t really pick out a favorite, but two immediately caught my eye, one with a rainbow sprouting out of her eye and behind her neck and another where she appears to be crying glittery tears, both are beyond stunning!
Late last night whilst I was working away on the laptop, my iPod’s shuffle function threw up one of her tunes. I haven’t really listened to them much lately, but I was instantly back in to the rhythm. I absolutely loved Bat For Lashes back in the day, and it kinda took me back, so naturally I’ve had them on repeat all day today! And that’s what inspired me to create this take on one of her more famous looks:

NARS Tinted Moisturiser in St Moritz

*LIPS*
Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso
*RAINBOW EYES*

*REST OF THE EYES*

May 6, 2014Wow! I love your make-up. It suits your style and personality! I love wearing colourful clothes and make-up but I'm no where near as adventurous as you! How do you get your eyebrows to look like that? Is it make-up or are they real?

May 6, 2014Hi Vicky!
Thank you! The ads for the Miss Manga mascara are a bit OTT. But I actually really like it! It defines each and every lash, plumps it up and gives crazy length! Love it for the bottom lashes too! 🙂
