Wedding Makeup Ideas

I'm lucky enough to be getting married in September this year, and it probably comes as no surprise that one of the elements I'm most excited about is my wedding day makeup. I've decided to do my makeup myself so I can have it exactly as I want it, so here are a few initial ideas of what I want and some products I have got my beady eye on.

I am having a summer garden party theme at a local farm with a 18th century converted barn so I want a fresh, dewy natural look with a slight pop of colour on my lips.

Mad Lab Cosmetics: First Impressions & Review

I made an order from indie makeup brand Mad Lab Cosmetics at the start of the month, so thought I would do a first impressions of the brand and mini review post of all of the shades I bought. Here is what I bought and what I think of everything.

Summer Makeup Essentials

As summer is fast approaching (hopefully!) and the summery dresses are coming out, I thought that I would share some of my summer makeup essentials with you. I've started reaching for some of these products everyday now, and I won't be able to live without them this summer. Here's what I have picked and why.

MUA 5th Birthday Limited Edition Eyeshadow Palette

I have a review of the gorgeous limited edition 5th Birthday Eyeshadow palette from MUA for you today. This is a recent MUA release which is available from Superdrug or the MUA website priced at just £4 and it is stunning! Read on to see what I thought of it and for swatches.

March Beauty Favourites

March is now over and we're officially into spring, so that means it's time for my monthly beauty favourites. I'm sorry for the delay with getting this posted, but I've had a pretty manic start to April and it doesn't look like it will be slowing down anytime soon. Argh! I'll still have time to post lots this month though hopefully. 

I found it hard to pick just 5 favourites as I've used so many new products this month and I've loved them all. I've tried to pick out a good range, so hopefully you all like my choices as much as I do.

MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer

I have been wanting to try the MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquers for quite some time now, and couldn't resist buying one when I popped into Superdrug the other week. I only picked up one as I wanted to test the water before buying more. I chose the shade 'Halcyon' which is a peachy nude shade. Here is what I thought of it.

MUA Sweet Sheen Lip Balm

I have a lovely post for you tonight about the new Sweet Sheen Lip Balms from MUA Cosmetics. These tinted lip balms were released as part of the new spring collection, and there are 6 shades to collect. I picked up just one shade to try, a lovely bright red called Rogue Rumba.
