No longer a NARS virgin!

I'm excited.I finally purchased some NARS makeup yesterday! It's amazing how much better my day was - I forgot how good getting makeup makes me feel (I don't know if that is healthy!). Look!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!! And yes, you guessed it the blush is "orgasm" I was determined to get a different one, but it is soooo pretty on - I get why everyone loves it!!The lippes are a surprise and I will be swatching very shortly...

Soft makeup FOTD

I love days when I can just put the bare minimum makeup on and run out the door. Unfortunately, on the days I need to do this I am always looking tired and therefore feel I need more makeup. However, here's a weekend FOTD shot from when I didn't have to jump out of bed at 6am and therefore went with a softer makeup look. I know it's so so basic but sometimes it's nice to go back to natural makeup to just add a little something without it your...

TRESemme Naturals Shampoo and Conditioner Review - look how shiny my hair looks!

Hello ladies,I was recently invited to an event in London to celebrate the launch of TRESemme's new NATURALS hair care collection. Unfortunately, being stuck at work in the north I was not able to attend but the lovely people sent me some products to try out anyway this week.It was perfect timing really as I ran out of conditioner the other day and had been using a hair mask as a replacement until I get paid. So I was happy to receive a huge Naturals...

Sleek Circus Palette FOTD

Seeing as I haven't done one of these for a while I thought I would ease you all back into my usual posting by showing you a FOTD I did recently. Admittedly the look was a little rushed on a Saturday morning, but the idea was that I'd go with a purple theme... (I think it's a bit clearer when you click on the piccies and zoom!!) Sorry about the intense sta...

FOTN (Bank Holiday Sunday)

So I went out for a few drinkies last weekend in between my hectic weeks away from home. As most of my belongings were in a suitcase however it was difficult to find inspiration for my makeup. This is what I ended up with... It ended up almost looking a bit gothic at one point, but in a way I didn't mind. Dark eyes and dark lips. I don't normally wear such a look so I enjoyed it for a change. I used:- No7 All Day Perfection in New Ivory...
