Valentines Day Makeup

ByLisa Jayne 



I’ve never really been one for Valentines Day, and I never really have big plans for it. But the weather is starting to lighten up, and so is my makeup. Despite no big Valentines Day plans this year I’ve come up with a makeup look to mark the occasion.




To start with I’m using my Bourjois Happy Light Serum Primer, which gives my a nice base to start on, and helps to make my skin a bit dewy looking. Then I use The Body Shop Cool Vitamin E BB Cream which creates a nice natural base, and also helps to make my skin look natural. I then use my favourite Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealor to cover up the dark circles under my eyes and any blemishes I have. I then set my foundation with the Seventeen Miracle Matte Pressed Powder, which is great for keeping my foundation in place all day. Then as usual I fill my eyebrows in using the shade Faint from my Naked Basics Palette, and then use my Maybelline Rocket Volume Mascara. Then I use my Body Shop Shimmer Waves*, which I think is great for this time of year as not only does it give a bit of colour in my cheeks, but its great to create a shimmering highlight. I’m really loving makeup from The Body Shop at the moment, and they also have a great range of gift ideas from The Body Shop too. I then finish off my Valentines Day look with my favourite lipstick from Soap & Glory, Pink Blush, which is a gorgeous matte soft pink colour.




I think this is a great look whether you have a big date planned, a night in with your partner, or just an everyday look for this time of year.

I recently posted about my new nail varnish purchases, one of which was Rimmel London’s ‘Disco Ball’. I was eager to try this one out! And this was the outcome of my new polish (please excuse my messy nails! I was in a rush!). I think the name ‘Disco Ball’ definitely suits this nail varnish, as it…

	

	
	







		

		


			

			
							
		

		
Makeup Mix Up Monday #1

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
As I mentioned on my blog post yesterday there’ll be a new feature on my blog. I’ve found I’m spending a ridiculous amount of money on makeup, and loads of it is going unloved and unused. So now I’ve decided that every week I’m going to mix my makeup up to ensure I use ALL of my makeup and it…

So I’m kinda new to the whole make-up brush scene (Don’t ask me how I’ve ever coped I have no idea!), and purchased my first set of make-up brushes last week. Mr Postman delivered them to me early Tuesday morning, I’ve never been so excited!     I got this set of 12 make-up brushes…

I thought I’d do a ‘Whats in my bag’ post because I love reading these! It’s so interesting to see what other people carry around in their bags with them.     The bag in question is a new one of mine. I bought it the other day from New Look for £24.99. I really…

Ever since I bought my nail art pens that I blogged about here, I’ve got quite into nail art. I’m certainly no professional when it comes to nail art, but I have become quite good at some of the more simple designs. One of my favourite to do is leopard print. Leopard print is one of…
