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?
Ah finally the weekend! Although it doesn’t make much of a difference to me, I still haven’t started my job, so every day to me is the weekend. I haven’t got massive plans for this weekend as I’m saving my pennies to be going back up to Leicester on Tuesday. So my Saturday is made up…
I think that dry shampoo is a complete life savior, who ever invited it should be awarded in my opinion. The idea that you can be lazy and not wash your hair and put a couple of sprays of product in and your hair feels clean, genius concept. A favourite dry shampoo of mine is Batiste,…
Recently Kat from Tales Of A Pale Face organised an autumn blog swap and I was quick to put my name down for it. I was then paired up with the lovely Tasha from Wand Included. After a few emails we agreed on a budget to spend on each other, and had told each other our…
I picked this up last weekend from LUSH after reading several reviews on it. Recently I’ve been abusing my poor nails, and my cuticles are paying the price for it. My cuticles were dry and horrible, as I hadn’t looked after them in months. Well after reading a few reviews I thought I’d give this a go…
I mentioned on the blog the other day about how I’ve been trying out organic skin care, and how the condition of my skin has been improving. In fact in the last couple of months I’ve become somewhat of a skin care junkie, putting all sorts of lotions and potions on my face. I think…
That’s right I finally got naked, Urban Decay’s Naked Palette (hey what were you thinking you dirty minded readers!). After months and months of lusting after this products I finally gave in and bought this bad boy. I know the Naked 2 palette is meant to be coming out soon, but I thought I should…
