FESTIVAL VIBES - MERMAID/BRONZE SMOKEY WITH A TOUCH OF YELLOW - TALK THROUGH TUTORIAL FOR HOODED EYES


I honestly don't remember last time I posted a makeup look. I've been working a lot and whilst I wear makeup every day, then the precious time I have off, I spend makeup free, giving my skin a well-deserved break. Last bank holiday Monday inspiration hit and I was actually going out of the house so I thought a smokey eye would do a trick. It quickly turned into full on glam bronzed smokey with some mermaid vibes and a yellow liner and painted yellow selfies, as you do going out for coffee and some retail therapy. Nevertheless, I was super happy with the look and took few photos, so if you'd like to know how to achieve this look, let me tell you now.

30 GOING ON 60: WE'VE USED MERUMAYA LIP RESTORATION TREATMENT FOR 30 DAYS & HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED (WITH BEFORE & AFTER SHOTS)

Merumaya Lip Line Restoration Treatment before & after


Nothing gives me more pleasure than spending a girly night in with my Mum. We are both obsessed with face masks so we sit, play cards & apply various beauty products to our faces. When I was contacted by Merumaya about their new release, I knew I NEED to test it alongside my Mum. Merumaya Lip Line Restoration Treatment seemed perfect to start a new series on my blog where a 30ish and 60-year old try and test beauty products together. It's easy to test skincare knowing that my skin is still fairly young, but will the product even work for someone with a mature skin? 
Merumaya Lip Restoration Treatment promises to fill in the vertical lip lines caused by dryness and ageing. So we embarked on over a month long journey to fight lip wrinkles. If you're interested to see the effects, I'll have before and after unretouched photos for you at the end.

APRIL EDIT: GLOW ON BUDGET, HAPPY SKIN & 13 REASONS WHY



I can't believe it's 1st of May today. I'm definitely enjoying some time off, given I worked every waking hour of April. It's been a long month that's for sure and I welcome May with open arms. Heavy work schedule meant reducing the time I was able to spend on the blog, but I hope to be back on schedule now. I also have a couple of giveaways coming this week, so keep your eyes peeled for that. April has definitely left me tired but I spent my month testing few incredible products and I hope you'll love them too. I picked up products I used all of April, so in terms of recent hauls, I am still testing all the makeup and I'll share more in-depth reviews with you very soon. Without further ado, let's see what I've been loving last month! <3
