Hope everyone has had a lovely Sunday,

This is my first blog post for 2016 and the year is going to fast again... I am bad at frequently blogging but I am going to keep it up now I have a new laptop ad my other one broke!

I thought I would tag my newest YouTube video to this post seeing as it is Valentines day and this is the first Valentines day for us as a engaged couple. I hope everyone has had a special Valentines with loved ones. 

Finally I got round to editing all my holiday footage from the Maldives and I am trying to edit a couple more videos for my channel at the moment and I would love to go away this year but I don't know where, have you booked any holidays and where is best to go?


Speak soon,

Afternoon with Charlie | Charlie Colley Makeup

Hello everyone, 

So this weekend I spent the afternoon with Charlie Colley helping take pictures of her and her client for a wedding. Both Charlie and her client allowed me to take photos and post them on my blog.

Charlie is a qualified Makeup Artist from Cheshire and she is finishing off her Beauty Courses at The International School Of Beauty. She used a variety of different makeup products and makeup appliances ranging from MUA, Mac, Rimmel, Sleek Makeup, Estee Lauder, Benefit, Max Factor and more. 

Charlie's client was getting married in the afternoon and wanted her makeup natural but effective and with it being for a wedding she wanted it to last. Charlie used a primer under the makeup and she also used some of her clients preferred makeup, her client knew how she wanted her makeup from the makeup trail. 

Charlie's client was extremely happy with the result and thanked her after the wedding as her makeup lasted all day! I had a lovely afternoon, the makeup looked lovely and here is a couple of pictures from the day.Thanks to Charlie and her client for letting me come along and take photos of the day.

Hey May, you've come quick!

Wow I can't believe we are in MAY already....

I know, I know, I am bad, as yet again I have slipped out of the blogging routine and I haven't kept up with blogging. It's all still newish for me! But I promise I will try and keep up with it all, I have just been far busy to busy..

Since the New year every day has gone really quick and work in the salon is always extremely busy, which is always a good thing as I prefer to be busy and I enjoy my work.

Then in February my Mums partner popped the question and they got engaged, they then booked the wedding for May and since then time has flown as I have already been on two hen dues this year. We have been doing so much with the wedding, moving houses, days/ nights out and loads more. I have loved been busy but I feel like every weekend has just been filled and I haven't had chance to blog or relax at all.  

At the moment I am just preparing for my holiday, which is at the start of June and can't come quick enough..don't you worry As I will be sharing plenty of pictures and I am off shopping for more holiday clothes tomorrow which I will be blogging about for sure :)

Catch up soon, 

Makeup Revolution Products | Review

Have you joined the Revolution?

Since Makeup Revolution came out earlier this year unbelievably this is the first time I have tried the products! I have recently seen more and more posts about Makeup Revolution so I just needed to get some in my life! They have such a good range of products and the price is very generous. 

Full Vamp Limitied Addition Lipstick collection - 100% Vamps, Black Heart & Rebel £3.00 

Amazing Lipstick - Mystify £1.00 

Firstly I looked at the lipsticks and they have many different colours ranging from bright yellows, oranges to deep reds and black. I LOVE the fact that all the lipsticks are only £1.00 and are of such good quality. They last really well and are very hydrating with a creamy consistecy. 

If your a fan of MUA I would highly recommend trying these out. The Vamps range are 

very warm and deep tones whereas Mystify is a natural nude. My favorite is Rebel which is the plum red colour. 

Salvation Palette Hard Day - £6.00 

After seeing the Makeup Revolutions palettes I NEEDED one! 

Out of all the palettes I felt I would use the earthy browns and cream colours more from this one. It contains 18 stunning eyeshadows and at the moment my favorite is 'Its what we do best' and 'Not one for playing games'. A few have a shimmer and some are more matte but they last and blend beautifully. 

 Liquid Concealer Shade Medium - £1.50

I neeeded a new concealer and I thought I would give this one a try. It has a smooth liquid finish

and is perfect for covering spots and circles. It blends well and is perfect under foundation.

Its available in 3 other shades and since receiving it I have used it daily. 

 Viper Mascara Black - £3.00  

My last product is this black mascara, I have been using a mascara from MUA for sometime now so I wanted to try out a different one out. I think it takes time to find a mascara that suits your lashes needs. I will do a everyday makeup blog soon as again I have used this mascara everyday since I received it. It goes on smoothly and the arched brush helps to give your lashes more of a lift and extra volume. It lasts really well and is very precise unlike some mascaras!

Glitter Lips Review & How-to

 If you like glitter you will LOVE glitter lips! 

When we received Glitter Lips I really couldn't wait to try it out. I really like all the colours from the Glitter Lips range. I picked Ruby Slippers which is "one hell of a colour". Its a classic, post box red and looks amazing on. You receive your chosen glitter pot, gloss bond and your glitter applicator. Glitter lips is only £12.99, which I think is such good value for money as it lasts well. This product is perfect for nights out and parties and it lasts up to 8hours - I was really excited try it to see how long it does actually last but it stayed on all day from 9-8 at work. 

Glitter lips is available - http://www.beautyboulevard.co.uk/

Or if your local - Beautiful, Nails, Body and Soul, Crewe.

♥ How to do Glitter Lips ♥

1. Ensure lips are clean and dry - Apply one lip at a time.
2. Keep lips separate apply a thin coat of the gloss - Allow the gloss to turn from white to clear.
3.  Apply the glitter to the lips ensuring an even coverage - lightly dampen pad to help pick more glitter up.
4. Brush off the excess glitter and then you have your amazing Glitter Lips!  

 * To remove the glitter use an oil based make-up remover. *

My Cream Winter Coat

Primark - £25.00 

Winter is here, the leaves are disappearing and the Christmas adverts are reappearing..

Its getting colder and I have found a winter coat! This Primark coat is perfect for this weather. I adore it, its so soft and cozy, brilliant for the Christmas markets and these dark nights! 

My favorite part is the fur, it looks really pretty and you can detach it off the coat. It has two big pockets either side and buttons all the way up. I love the nude colour and I think they do it in different colours aswell. 

Have you found your winter coat? 

Hope you like it!

November - Tartan& Leather

Its November and its getting chilly, I keep wearing this casual outfit and mixing it up slightly, its perfect for this time of year for going to all the bonfires..

Jacket

You can never go wrong with a leather jacket, I think its perfect for casual or smart occasions, you can dress it up or down. My leather jacket is from Topshop last year but is still in perfect condition and great quality.You can get a similar jacket online or in high street shops or online sites such as Newlook, River Island, Zara.

Jumper

Underneath my leather jacket, I am wearing a light grey jumper from Forever 21, Its very comfy and light weight. You can layer it up so its perfect for going out or even just for relaxing in.

Jeans

My black jeans are super comfy from Newlook, I tend to get my jeans from Newlook as I find they fit me better and I prefer there material.

Boots

These classic black heeled boots are super comfy and are so reasonable. I had been looking for boots for a while and then I found these beauties from Peacocks for only £26. They are sturdy with quite a chunky heel but are very easy to walk in and go perfect with a leather jacket, jumper and jeans.

Scarf

I keep wearing tartan scarfs and mentioned my other one in my Autumn styles post. I love the deep colors.

Let me know what your favorites are? 

I love lush

Hi Guys.

At the moment I am really into Lush cosmetics, all the lush products smell incredible! 

I have all my Lush products on a stand in my bedroom and as soon as you walk into the room the smell hits you straight away, they all leave your room smelling gorgeous. I advise anybody who has never used the lush products before to find out where your nearest store is and pop in you will instantly fall in love with all the amazing smells. Lush do varies things not just soap ranging from bath bombs, makeup, perfume, body lotion, shampoos, hair dyes and more.

I have recently found out that lush also do parties and have opened a spa in Liverpool which I would love to go to. On my youtube channel I am going to be doing demos on all these lovely products so watch out.
