A helping hand.....

Hello

I hope you are having a great week so far?

Now when I decided to start writing my blog, it was not my intention to write about anything other than Colour, Jewellery and Craft, as these are the things that make me happy.
But, I feel it's only fair to let you into a secret that I been in on for the last 18 months or so. If you already know about Pixiwoo, then your'll know that the advise given by these two 'Make Up Artist' sisters, Samantha & Nicki is the most amazing ever.
They have over 400 YouTube tutorials and cover anything from classic looks (great for weddings), to celebrity glamour, to fancy dress/party make up.

They know what looks good and will show you exactly how to apply everything, with tips scattered along the way and what's more they are really nice and great to watch. I feel like they are my friends, even though I've never met them.
I've learnt to use brushes to apply my make up properly and also about skin care brands that are used by the professionals.

Pixiwoo has over 400,000 weekly followers, so they are definitely doing something right.  Even if you don't wear make up or just have time in your life to apply a bit of mascara and some lip balm before leaving the house, check out what these lovely ladies have to say.

Create your own little bit of Summer.....

Hello


I have been attempting ignore the fact that summer has not YET arrived and that Elle and Vogue are showing winter fashion in their Aug issue.
Summer will come and in the meantime my nails will give me some brightness.
I absolutely love ESSIE nail varnishes, for their colour range, their consistency and the brush shape. I used to buy mine in Liberty's (£9.95), treating myself every time I was in London.
Recently however, they are being stocked in Boots (£7.95) and I have also started to find them in packs of 3 matching colours in my local TK Maxx (£9.95 for 3!).
If you haven't tried the brand, then I would definitely recommend it. 
I also keep all my nail varnishes in the bottom holder in the door of my fridge and this way they don't get warm and gloopy!
