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?
Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to the Rush Blogger Meet at the House Of Rush organised by the lovely Becky from Lipgloss and Lashes. The House of Rush is situated in central London, right in the heart of Piccadilly. I’d never heard of The House of Rush before, and it seemed different from…
So today’s NOTD post is about Barry M Nail Effects. I know this has been around for ages, but I’ve only just got around to getting nail effects in ‘white frost’ in the last couple of weeks. I love the Barry M Nail Effects, I own all four, I just think there amazing. I think…
I know you probably hear this a lot, but seriously how fast is 2011 going? It seems like only yesterday I was seeing in the new year, and now its mid October?! Crazy. So yes even though it is now mid October, I’m now posting my September favourites video. Yes yes I know its very…

Face masks have become a permanent part of my skin care routine lately, especially now the weathers got a lot colder, my skin needs that extra TLC. Having already sensitive skin, the winter months really take a toll on my skin and I have a more intensive skin care routine to ensure my skin gets…
Lee Stafford is a brand I’ve loved over the past couple of years. The products smell amazing, they work wonders, and the packaging is pink – what is there not to love? I’m normally loyal and stick to my Hair Growth Treatment range, but on a recent trip to boots I decided to check out the…
