WHAT I WORE: To the VIVA FOREVER! Cocktails launch

As you all already probably know by now, on Tuesday 5th February I was invited to the launch of the VIVA FOREVER! cocktails at Harvey Nichols. As my original post on the launch was way too long (you can view it here), I decided to put my outfit and make up in a separate post for you.
For my outfit, I kept it pretty simple. I wore my brown boots from New Look, my disco pants dupe off of eBay and my new blouse from Primark (which cost just £2 in the sale). I then paired this outfit with some rose gold earrings from New Look. Underneath the blouse, I wore a skin coloured vest as the blouse is pretty sheer.
I curled my hair with my new curlers, the BaByliss 2287BU Pro Curl 210 Styling Hair Tongs and although my hair looks pretty decent in these photos, by the end of the event, it had unfortunately completely dropped. You can probably also see that I've ombred my hair so expect a blog post on that soon too! I used my HD Brow Palette* on my eye brows, Laura Mercier's Silk Creme Foundation, Benefit's Boi-ing Concealer and 17's Miracle Matte Pressed Powder on my skin, Nars' Deepthroat and Liz Earle's Natural Glow Bronzer* on my cheeks and on my lips I used Revlon's Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie*. 
As always, apologies for the dodgy eye liner application on one eye and also, sorry for the bottom two photos - I have no idea why they're blurry in the collage as the original photos weren't. On my eyes, I used Urban Decay's YDK all over the lid and Urban Decay's Buck in the crease to add definition. I then used Urban Decay's Half Baked underneath my lower lash line and Urban Decay's Sin underneath my brow bone and on the inner corner of my eyes. The eye liner on my top lid is Collection 2000's Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner and on my water line it's Lancome Le Crayon Khol in Noir. For mascara, I used Lancome's Hypnose Drama.
