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?
Lately on the blog I’ve been sharing with you my Best of 2013 series including Hair Products, Skin Care, and Body Products. Today I’m sharing with you what my favourite makeup products were in 2013. Being bit of a makeup addict I really thought this would be the longest post of them all, but it…
Months and months ago my lovely boyfriend treated me to this, my first MAC lipstick. At the time I originally wanted Hue, but after swatching it in the shop I found that it was way too pale for me, it just made me look ill. So I decided to swatch another lipstick…
Now that we’ve entered into a new year I had many new years resolutions, the usual diet and exercise, but I also wanted to become a bit more organised. Not only with myself and my blog, but to also organise a lot of my storage spaces. I’ve recently redecorated my room, and with that has come…
You may have seen on my latest Haul Post that the lovely Shona from Fresh Beauty XOX talked me into buying a couple of the MUA Power Pouts. We stood there in Superdrug swatching them, and Shona convinced me I needed these in my life. It’s been a while since I’ve used any MUA products, and the last time…
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…
So far I’ve been doing well at sticking to my ‘makeup mix up’s’, however I forgot to blog about it last week! This week I’ll still be using the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation as I’m trying it out to review it, and I think you should try something out for a few weeks before reviewing…
