Pixi Beauty Liquid Lip

AD/ This post contains gifted products and affiliate links

It is no secret, that Pixi Beauty is one of my favourite makeup brands of all time. I adore their skincare too, but their MatteLast Liquid Lip* (£16.00) is my everyday beauty essential and I cannot live without the nude shades! I must go through at least 4 of the Pixi nudes per year, easily. I use these multiple times a day, so they will last you a long time, don't worry. Anyway... Let's dive into the formula.

Giorgio Armani brow products.

I've been meaning to write about some of the Giorgio Armani eyebrow products for ages, but I never really got round to it till now. I received this selection and I was really confused about the bright red to be honest, but I actually used it on my lips and it worked a treat. The other products are much more suited to eyes and brows though, so I didn't have a problem trying them out. In fact - I found my new favourite eyebrow pencil and angled brush. Yay!

Bobbi Brown Molten Metals Liquid Eyeshadows

 I was kindly sent the new Bobbi Brown Molten Metals Liquid Eyeshadows*(£18.50) last month and I can honestly say that I haven't been this excited about a makeup item in a while. I mentioned these in my Spring edit, but I have to dedicate a full blog post and swatches to this product, because I love it so much!

AD: Summer Makeup & Beauty with Boots

AD - this is a paid collaboration with Boots.com

I always have a little switch up in my makeup bag, skincare stash and even in my perfume collection for the Summer, because sometimes you need sunshine, a holiday or a festival to pull off neon liner or glitter makeup on your face. I am not afraid of taking risks though and you will always see me trying new trends and colours - I just love it! Today I am sharing some of my Summer beauty picks and a fun and easy makeup look which would be perfect for a festival or if you simply want to add a pop of colour just for fun!

FENTY Beauty Poutsicles Juicy Satin Lipsticks

I've always loved experimenting with lip colour, so I knew I was gonna create some fun looks with the new  FENTY Beauty Poutsicles Juicy Satin Lipstick*(£18.00), despite the fact I probably wouldn't have picked blue or purple as my first choices. The Poutsicles are part of the new Summer collection and are limited edition.

Pixi Beauty Glow Cakes

I was kindly sent a selection of Pixi products a while ago and I was instantly drawn to the Glow Cakes*(£24.00), which combine subtle contour, blush and highlight in one and are an absolute dream to use. The formula is lovely and the colours are super flattering on most skin tones.

#TravelTips for your Summer Holiday packing!


AD - this post is a collaboration with Cosmetify

I'm currently on holiday and I would be lost without packing some travel friendly beauty minis. From makeup, to toiletries and skincare, it is so much easier to travel with smaller products, especially when you're flying with carry-on luggage and have to adhere to airport regulations. If you're planning a holiday and want to get all your minis ready, Cosmetify are a hub for all your favourite beauty brands with 160,000 products to choose from and they asked me to share my #TravelTips with you to help you prepare and pack! Would you like to see my picks from the website, along with some tips and hacks?

I recently attended the opening of a FENTY counter in the Fort Glasgow and it looks incredible! Here are some photos from the launch and more info about the locations of the counters.

Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lips Review + Swatches

 This post includes gifted products and affiliate links
Are we ready to give up matte liquid lipsticks yet? I don't think so, haha. Can we welcome back other formulas into our lives? YES! Yes, please! After cold Winter months, our lips desperately need more nourishing formulas, like the new Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lips*(£19.00) and I am all about the glossy finish lately.

Brand Focus: Glossier

I have been meaning to write about Glossier since I first tried the brand last year, but I lost the photos I took, so I waited and waited and now I actually used up some of the products, hence the empty packaging. You know you love something, when you literally scrape every single last bit out!

Pixi Beauty Christmas Gift Ideas

I recently attended the Girls Day Out Show in Glasgow with Pixi Beauty and I must admit - they had the most beautiful setup! It looked magical! I added loads of photos to my Instagram and saved it in my story highlights, if you want to have a little peek. I came home with some of their gorgeous products and I think they would be perfect as Christmas presents or stocking fillers for beauty and makeup enthusiasts. 

Soap & Glory Boots Star Gift 2018

It's time for the beauty bargain of the year - the Soap & Glory Boots Star Gift*. This year it's a collaboration with multi-talented graphic designer, art director and illustrator Zuki and it looks gorgeous! The gift set retails at £30.00 with the items inside worth £80.00, making it an absolute steal! 

Bobbi Brown Christmas Gifting

Bobbi Brown became one of my favourite brands in 2018 and I often wear a full face of BB makeup, because the products are simply incredible. I especially love the highlighters. I mean... just look at the duo above! Stunning! I have a few items to show you, just in case you fancy treating yourself or a loved one to some luxe makeup this Christmas.

Bare Minerals Original Foundation Review

I adore bareMinerals products and I am a huge fan of their bases, like the Complexion Rescue, BarePro, Blemish Rescue and BareSkin. I have tried every single base from their range, except the matte version for oily skin. Today I want to talk about the Original though, as I have been using it  a lot lately for a few reasons.

Brand Focus: Pixi Beauty

I was introduced to Pixi Beauty a few months ago at a Pixi Beaty dinner in Glasgow (incredible evening!) and some of their products quickly became staples in my skincare routine and my makeup bag. The formulas are lovely and the brand is cruelty free and most of their products are vegan, which is amazing.

Eyes with Smashbox

I haven't tried much from Smashbox, so I was really looking forward to giving these a go. A perfect trio for a simple makeup look with a pop of colour. I adore the mascara and liner so much, they have been my go to in 2018.

Bobbi Brown #CantLiveWithout products.

I recently attended a Bobbi Brown masterclass where the lovely Bobbi Brown team showed us how to create a gorgeous makeup look with their #CantLiveWithout products. We learnt some tricks from the lovely and talented Aimee Morrison who's a PRO makeup artist at Bobbi Brown and I was in my natural habitat: chatting makeup and applying it to my face!
