Daily snaps of minute sections of my little old life. 

oh and a sneak preview of my new YouTube set up ... seeing as my old back drop was ruined in the burst pipe incident, I'm now going to film in-front of my make-up bookshelf! What do you think?

Recent Purchases


It's been a bit of a skin month ... I've been looking for products for myself, and also for my professional kit. But regardless of which they're for, I thought I would show you. There's been a lot of hype to do with the Rimmel London Wake me up foundation, so as there was a 3 for 2 offer on in boots, I thought now would be the perfect opportunity to purchase it. I purchased three things from Soap & Glory, I'm obsessed with this brand, but I've yet to try their skin care or make up. I purchased the hot cloth cleanser, glow job, and bright here bright now balm. The remaining three products I purchased online, Chanel Vita Lumière aqua is my favourite foundation both personally and in my kit, especially when I'm doing bridal work. Estee Lauder's double wear is another purchase for my kit, it's camouflage makeup, so it's pretty heavy & full coverage, but I love it mixed with mac's face & body! Finally Origins Vita Zing, this was purchased via BuyaPowa. I'm obsessed with this product at the moment, perfect when you want a little colour on the skin, but hardly any coverage. It really brightens the skin, and makes you look effortlessly radiant. 

I will definitely be reviewing these products more in-depth soon, once I've tried and tested them out a little bit more. But so far I'm pretty impressed with all the products. 

Rimmel London Wake Me Up Foundation - £8.99
Chanel Vita Lumière Aqua - £31.00
Origins Vita Zing - £19.50
Estee Lauder Double Wear - £ 26.50
Soap & Glory - Hot cloth cleanser - £10.00
Soap & Glory - Glow job - £9.00
Soap & Glory - Bright here bright now balm - £11.00
