Birthday Makeup

ByLisa Jayne May 14, 2015August 1, 2017

Today is no normal Thursday, it’s in fact my 24th birthday! I don’t have any major birthday plans today, as I’ll be at work for most of the day. But I’ll be celebrating tonight with my parents, as it’s also their wedding anniversary, so for our special day we’re all going out for dinner. As it’s my birthday I thought I’d wear some of my favourite makeup products, especially as I’m then going out tonight.

My current favourite foundation is Dior’s Star, mostly because of how gorgeous it makes my skin look, but also because it lasts all day. I hate having to reapply makeup again, so this is perfect for today. As I loved Dior’s Star foundation I also bought their concealer, which is probably one of the best I’ve tried for sometime. It’s brilliant at hiding my dark circles and blemishes, and of course I don’t want any of them showing today! I used to always colour my eyebrows in with eyeshadow, but recently I’ve been using Soap & Glory’s Arch De Triumph, and it’s fantastic. It has a brow shade on one side and a highlight shade on the other, which helps to give my brows the perfect shape. For thick full looking lashes my current go to is No. 7’s Intense Volume Mascara, it just doubles the length of my lashes. To finish off my makeup I’m planning to use Soap & Glory’s Glow All Out luminazing face powder, and then I’ll apply my Clinique Chubby Stick in Pudgy Peony.

I really like this makeup look, there’s still a bit of colour with the lipstick but it’s not too much for when I’m at work. Now to go enjoy my birthday and eat lots of cake! 😉

Philip Kingsley One More Day Dry Shampoo

ByLisa Jayne August 19, 2013July 30, 2017

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,…

ByLisa Jayne July 2, 2011July 16, 2017

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…

Origins Clear Improvement Charcoal Mask

ByLisa Jayne July 29, 2013July 30, 2017

I only really discovered Origins products earlier this year when I started off with the Never A Dull Moment Cleanser. I got on so well with the cleanser, and found the sales assistant so helpful that I decided to go back for more skin care advice. I had a chat with her about what I wanted from…

My Nail Care Routine

ByLisa Jayne August 11, 2011July 16, 2017

Hi there girlies! As many of you know I am a self confessed nail varnish addict. I love the stuff, I now have 56 bottles in my collection so I’m just ever so slightly addicted. Well lately I’ve started a job where I can’t wear nail varnish – absolute horror for someone who’s addicted….

MAC Creme Cup

ByLisa Jayne February 28, 2012July 28, 2017

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…

Seventeen CC Cream Review

ByLisa Jayne October 17, 2013July 30, 2017

I never really caught on to the BB Cream hype as I never found one that did wonders for me, but I did get on with The Body Shops Vitamin E version. Never really being amazed by BB Creams I wasn’t too fussed when mine ran out and I never repurchased. But then the CC Cream…
