£445.00 self imrovement or madness


Yikes . Thats the price of the new wonder cream by Sisley . Its more expensive than botox and has to be replenished every two months ? does this mean that botox is on the way out ? I dont think so . But I do think that we are happier with the less invasive options . In the UK its estimated that we are spending 1.8 million EVERY day on cosmetic proceedures ! these figures have tripled in the last 5 years but its not something that many people are willing to talk about as it raises so many moral issues . I'm not sure how I feel about me and botox ? But I do feel its completely up o the individual and I'm not one to judge . I dont think anyone should be made to feel bad for trying to fight the ageing process. We don't seem to judge the other way round. Botox is something I havn't tried but I wouldn't write it off completely not yet anyway as I still have to determine how how the ravages of time will set as time passes. So for now I'm taking an easier route . I will continue with my facials and to explore the painless route to ironing out my wrinkles .After all I just want to try to maintain I dont want to change . Is that so bad ?

The best Mascara in the world


let me tell you about the best Mascara in the world . Its by Kanebo and it forms a plastic coating over the lashes which gives a beautiful coverage . It lengthens and separates like no other I have ever used . I have tried every Mascara their is to try at one point but none have ever beaten this one for me .To remove it your just use hot water and massage it over the lashes and it comes off in a little plastic sheild . Not damaging to your lashes at all ! Its available in the UK through Harrods and costs about £18.00 it should last about 3-6 months depending on how well you take care of it . don't push the wand in and out more than 1-2 times for each use as any more pushes air into the container and causes it to dry out which is why our Mascara eventually starts to dry and flake and ends up smudging under your eye . not a good look ! So look after you wand and it will last longer . When it has sarted to dry out throw it out . As its not revivable.

The Bridal Season is here




I have made up many brides over the years and I especially love this part of my work . I enjoy meeting with them and getting involved in helping them with their theme . As I have worked as a stylist on many occasions I am more than happy to help with co-ordinating their bridal theme .


I carry out Make-up trials for the Bride but anyone else in the Bridal party can have a make-up trial too . I tend to do trials 2 days per month and bridal bookings can be made after the trial up to a year in advance .
