Today is my first day back to work after two lovely weeks off over Christmas. While I was on my annual leave I didn’t really wear much make up, especially as a lot of the time I was at home doing nothing. It was nice to give my skin bit of a break for a while, but I have missed wearing make up and I’m looking forward to wearing some again this week!
I don’t want to go crazy on the makeup front, especially as I haven’t worn some for a while so I’m just going to be wearing a few current makeup favourites. I’m starting with my current favourite foundations, Dior’s Star. It gives my skin an amazing glowy look which I’ve not found in the past with other foundations, and then I’ll use my Dior Star Concealor to cover up my dark circles and any blemishes. To colour in my eyebrows I’ll be using my Naked Basics Palette using the shade ‘Faint’ which matches my eyebrows perfectly, giving them a more defined look, and then I’ll use my Rimmel London Scanadleyes Mascara on my lashes. To give my cheeks a bit of colour I’ll be using Benefit’s Hervana blusher, and as I’ve got quite into red lipstick lately I thought I’d wear Rimmel London’s Kate Moss lipstick in the shade ‘Kiss of Life’.
It’s quite a simple makeup look as I’ve lost a bit of my mojo with makeup lately, but I’m feeling rather adventurous about wearing red lipstick to work for a change! If you saw my blog post yesterday you’ll know that I’m trying to use more of my lipsticks this year, so why not start with my first day back at work! Are you back to work today? What makeup products will you be wearing?
If you’d asked me what my favourite blusher has been recently, I’d tell you Natural Collection’s Peach Melba is the only thing I’ve been wearing on my cheeks for the past year. Honestly it was all I wanted from a blusher, I thought I’d never try out another one again. Then one day on a…
Recently I’ve been feeling a little ‘blue’. I’m missing a lot of my uni life, the friends I made there, my boyfriend, and the general freedom of uni life away from home. If any of you follow me on Twitter you probably know this. For that reason I decided to mix two of my nail…
If you’ve been following my blog closely over the past few months, you may have noticed many Origins products have been getting a mention recently. After years of struggling with terrible skin I decided to stop trying to find a high street product that will save me, and decided to delve into the world of high…
Once upon a time I had really long hair, and then for some strange reason I decided to cut it short one day. Since then I’ve spent years trying to grow my hair, and then giving up and getting it cut short again. I get so bored with how I want my hair, I’ve changed…
You may have noticed that my blog has been a little on the quiet side lately. Life has got very busy with work, and buying our flat and trying to sort everything out that comes with that. With everything getting a bit hectic I decided to take a bit of time off from the online world,…
My hair is usually a mess, it’s super thick, curly, and frizzy, and nothing ever seems to tame it. For years I’ve been trying a range of products to try and tame it, so I can look somewhat presentable, but my hair always seems to stay frizzy. I’m a sucker for products that say they…
