With my wedding on the horizon (July!) I’ve been paying so much attention to my skin-care and the condition of my skin. I want my makeup to look perfect on the big day, and I know that the better my skin is naturally, the better the make-up will look, and the better the photos will…
How to use concealer, and cover up problem areas
I was relatively lucky throughout my teenage years and early twenties because the only area I’ve ever really struggled with (in terms of my complexion) is my chin. Unfortunately, what no one seems to tell you when you’re going through those teenage years, is that spots and problems areas don’t miraculously disappear once you’re an adult. I…
My Favourite Smoky-Eye Evening Look
With so many special nights coming up this year (my hen-do, our wedding, 2 friends weddings later in the year….) perfecting a formal evening-y style look has been high on my to-do list.

My Working-From-Home Uniform
I’m a freelance social media manager, so most of the time I work from home. After working in offices for a lot of my career, I’ve found that working freelance (and working from home) really suits me. I love my apartment, and I love working from my living room each day. The only downside? It’s…
Eye-shadow Palettes I Need in My Life
Over the last few months I’ve been watching more and more make-up tutorials and actively trying to improve the way I look after my make-up, and also the way I apply it. I definitely got stuck in a rut with make-up, applying it how I always have (since age 14) and forgetting that there are…
