Say hello to Ellie Costello, a MAC makeup artist who is taking creativity in makeup to a whole new level. While many of us would not ditch our black eyeliner and only few would experiment with other colours, Ellie has done what none of us would ever think of doing - use flowers as eyeliner!

Ellie was (clearly) inspired by spring when she decided to try out various eye looks involving flowers. Check out the amazing looks she has created below.

Here's a little moving shot for you all of my Gipsofila creation - one of my favourites also on a VERY exciting note - I have been featured in a variety of magazines online this week including @cosmopolitan and @teenvogue - This week has been crazy for me - thank you to everyone

Secret Garden using all real wild flowers and leaves from my garden. I just want to also take a moment to say a massive thank you to all the people who constantly show me love and support towards my work. It genuinely means the world to me and encourages me to keep doing what I do

SPRING QUEEN yes I'm obsessed with gipsofila... can't get over how pretty these flowers are. Not sure where I was going with this look but I hope you like it!

THANK YOU all so much for the love on this look - here is a shot of a simpler version of it .. before I went crazy and added a load of glitter, flower stalks and white dots (and also before the flowers dried and crinkled up a tad). Although the same look I think the simplicity of this shot makes it have a complete different effect • I hope you like this simpler version just as much as the other - I'd love to know if you love the simpler versions just as much as the finalised looks
