FOTD: The ‘No Makeup’ Makeup
I’m not feeling too great today, maybe I’ve caught the bugger little man has (He has been poorly since yesterday). Getting up this morning I looked a greenish white colour which isn’t attractive at all. Sometimes a little colour can make you feel better, so I decided to pop a…
Review and FOTD: L’Oreal Rouge Caresse in Aphrodite Scarlet 06
With so much talk of the Revlon Lip Butters I was keen to try then; in honesty I was a little disappointed and felt there was much over hype where they were concerned. A shame really as I was as excited as many others were. Then I heard of L’Oreals…
Hair and Face of the Day – Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mummy’s out there! Remember you don’t have to have children to be thought of on Mother’s Day. If you are a Mummy to an Angel, Mummy to a furball or maybe you are a Step Mum or a Foster Mum – either way Happy…
HOTD/FOTD: Naturally Me (With Curls)
I haven’t done any hair of the day posts in what feels like ages and thought it was about time to add one. This is my most worn ‘style’ if you like when my hair is curled. I also was having a ‘no make up’ makeup look day… Products used…
FOTD: Lashtastic Berry Neutral using Sleek Au Naturel Palette (Nude Collection)
After finding out I have a chest infection today I’ve been feeling a little sorry for myself. It just seems to be one thing after another; add to that the lack of sleep from coughing all night and I’m pretty grumpy and miserable – I am seriously hoping you can’t…
YouTube: Get Ready With Me – Natural Every Day Makeup
As I have now moved bedrooms and have quite good light to film in I thought I would do my ‘every day’ makeup video for you. This is what I do every morning if I am not going anywhere special or out to town. In other words the school run…
Review: No7 Airbrush Away Primer
No 7 £5 voucher time in Boots comes around quite frequently and for those of us who don’t use many No 7 products it can be a bit poor. I’ve never been a massive fan of their foundations and to be fair I find many of their items over priced….
YouTube/Haul: My Birthday Shopping Haul (Including my Birthday FOTD and Swatches)
It was my birthday on Saturday and I turned <whispers> 36! Scary really and only 4 more years left before I’ll have to change myself too 40SomethingMel! What better way too cheer yourself up though than going shopping. As I said in my video, I didn’t actually get any presents…
EOTD: Feeling Naked
It’s been a while since I’ve done an eye of the day post and even longer since I’ve used my Naked palette from Urban Decay – so I thought today could be the day and I’d kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Here’s my natural naked look and what I…
FOTD and Review on some of the Vivo Cosmetics Products
I may love to review new products; but often when it comes to make up I stick with what I know. There’s certain brands I won’t buy or don’t really like and trying something new (Although I love trying new things) can be daunting. Vivo Cosmetics were launched exclusively into…
FOTD: Urban Decay Naked Palette and Smashbox Lip Stain
I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve done a face of the day; even longer when I think of using my Naked palette from Urban Decay. I have to be honest and say I like it, its good quality, lasts well and the shadows are really pigmented and…
FOTD: Plum Smokey Eye with Nude Lip
I woke up this morning feeling like crap, yes its the time of the month for me which means bad moods, being exceptionally emotional and very snappy. People near me, beware! Still I wanted to try and cheer myself up a little so thought I’d have a play with the…
FOTD: Avon Colour Trends Flirty Eyes Eyeshadow Quad in Bright Eyes
It’s never good when you wake up in the morning and wonder what other devastation has happened since you closed your eyes the night before. I actually dreaded looking at Twitter this morning – would there be more riots? Damage? Lives ruined? With all this in mind I decided to…
Review: (MUA)MakeUp Academy Professional Heaven and Earth Palette & FOTD
When it comes too makeup my biggest obsession is eye shadows. I love reviewing eyeshadows and eyeshadow palettes are my weakness! As some of you may have seen the other day when I got my Superdrug order I actually made it because of this palette – Makeup Acadamy’s Professional Heaven…
FOTD : Understated Smokey Eye (Sleek Storm/Curacao Palettes)
Today marked my bi-annual hair cut – yes I’m so bad that I hate having my hair cut and only have it cut when totally necessary! As I’d had my hair blow dried after I thought I’d so a face of the day. Makeup today was understated and subtle with…
