Medium cover foundation routine using Nars Sheer Glow.....

Hi Everyone!!

Hope you are all having a fab bank holiday!!

I wanted to share with you a demo of how I use the NARS Sheer Glow, I got this foundation a couple of months ago and really love it. 

The name sheer glow doesn't really do it justice as it gives a medium cover that can easily be built to full cover.

I love the soft finish it leaves on the skin and how long lasting and flawless it is.

Have you tried NARS Sheer Glow?

Are you a fan too??

Amy Childs Lashes, A new found love.......

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you will know that I like glamorous looks for both the day and night.

The way I like to take a look from day to night is by adding some gorgeous lashes, and the ones I am sharing with you today are certainly gorgeous.

These are the Amy Childs' Lashes in style Tease 2.

A soft lash with medium and long lashes with the added bonus of a little sparkle along the lash line.

They are an ideal lash for added glamour for any night time eye look.

The lashes are super comfortable to wear. They have little or no band making them easy to blend and apply. They are very light and pack far more punch than you would at first think looking so delicate. 

They are also really long lasting and can be worn multiple times, something I personally am a massive fan of.

Something else that i really love about these lashes if that they come off the card, no dragging or pulling that I find means I quite often misshape my lashes. 

I have worn this set once already ( I took the photos first, lol)

and am recording a full tutorial on my YouTube Channel that will be up this week to show you these lashes at there very best.

Amy's range has a total of 8 designs in total ranging from subtle girly lashes to the more dramatic and glamorous for the diva in all of us, they cost £8 and are available from

www.amychildsofficial.co.uk.

I for one am going to be trying another set, I have already ordered Temptress 2 :)

What are your favorite lashes?

Will you be giving these a go?

A Golden eye with a neon lip, a look I've been loving.............

Happy Sunday everyone!! Hope you have all been having a fab weekend?! 

I wanted to share with you today a make up look that I have been wearing for just over a week now since picking up the The Top Shelf Bare Minerals READY palette  in a blog sale.

Its a super quick eye that packs a punch with a gorgeous neon lip.

If you would like to see how I did this look, including the neon lip, then take a look at the tutorial below.

Bare Minerals READY Eyeshadow 2.0..........

I love a good old blog sale, I really do. Especially when I find products that I have been dying to try.

I was so happy when I saw this Bare Minerals palette over on Alices blog (Bright town Girl, you must check her blog out!!)  it is something I have wanted to try for ages.

The READY Range from Bare Minerals is a collection of pressed products including eye shadows, skin veils, foundation, bronzer and blush.

The Top Shelf Palette

L To R

Mixologist and Cognac

These shadows are super pigmented and have really impressed me. They have an almost creamy texture, blend beautifully and last all day.

Mixologist and Cognac

I love the payoff from just one swipe of a finger or brush. Cognac is a beautiful antiqued gold shade, a color I have been loving recently.

The packaging is the rubberized compact that has become famous thanks to NARS. It also has a great sized mirror in the compact, making it ideal for travel.

The duo shadows normally cost £19.00, in my opinion a great price for the quality and pigment of the product.

I put a video together of a look I have been wearing featuring these beautiful shadows.

Have you tried the ready shadows from Bare Minerals? What colors do you recommend?

Current Medium cover foundation routine, Nearly Naked demo...

So after sharing with you my review on what I think of the new Revlon Nearly Naked foundation, I decided that I wanted to show you how it applies and my current routine.

At the moment my skin is in a terrible state so it is lovely to be able to wear a foundation that feels light and yet gives me enough cover to hide my blemishes and make me feel confident.

I hope that you like this demo...

Have you tried Nearly Naked?

Fab I hope!! I wanted to share with you my look for the Sunkissed Party competition.

For this look I used the Sunkissed palette and the Giant Bronzer.

In addition to this I used my foundation, Concealer, black gel eye liner and brow products.
