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?
I was tagged by the lovely Clare from A Bit Of This And That in her skincare tag and I thought it would be fun to give it a go. I’ve got into skin care over the past year, but I’m still learning a lot about how to look after my skin. I like tags like…
Liz Earle is a brand I’ve constantly heard raved about in the blogosphere, especially for their Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser. I’ve had the Cleanse & Polish on my wishlist for months but I’ve never got around to trying out a Liz Earle product, so when I was contacted to try out the…
I’ve mentioned it time and time again through my blog, I love Soap & Glory. I love their cute packaging, I love how affordable their products are, and most of all, I love their scent. Which is why when I saw this perfume a couple of months ago in Boots, I quickly snapped it up….
If you read my Christmas post you will have seen that my mum bought me Clinique’s Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion for Christmas. I’d never used it before but it’s something my mum swears by and has used for years, along with other Clinique products. As I suffer from very dry skin like my mum she thought this…
I’ve been talking a lot on the blog recently about my Best Of 2013 Products – Hair, Skincare, Body, and Makeup. But I thought it was time I spoke about my favourite bloggers of 2013. A Blog From Blackpool This is a blog I’ve read since I started blogging and a lovely girl to chat to! Danielle always manages to make…
So I was looking through my inbuilt wardrobe earlier, trying to find a certain pair of shoes, when I found something I completely forgotten about: My mumma had bought me this Lula & Belle Cosmetics palette the Christmas before last and I never really got around to using it much, and then when I…
