Current Beauty Favourites

I have been away for a while...but all for a good reason! I got married!! On the 8th of September 2015 i married my soul mate and best friend in the whole world!  So the past year has been busy focusing on planning, table arrangements, cakes, flowers and everything else that comes along with what definitely was the best day of my life so far! 

I am back with my current beauty faves at the minute.  I have been glued to all my favourite and some new blogs (including Hellooctober, icovetthee, Sazan) looking for new products to try and i wanted to see if anyone else is going mad for the same lipstick as me.


For the longest time i have been obsessed with lipstick queen, and today is no different, in any shade, but my mains are the silky reds that give your lips colour but keep them a little shiny at the same time...kind of like a lipstick lip gloss mix.  



Makeup Forever HD: shade 120, Y245
Nars concealer: Vanilla
Nars Dual Blush: Frenzy
Hourglass: Dim light
Lipstickqueen: Sunny Rouge
Kiko Mascara: Black

Another gem is the Hourglass dim light, this miracle powder uses a special formula to blur out pores and wrinkles! it really does the trick!  I apply this to my under eyes and T zone are mainly, i also can use this to set my concealer if i am pushed for time on days where I am running out the door with one shoe one...(no really... this actually happened).

Makeup forever HD i think most people have tried, it is the perfect balance of shade and colour to match your skin tone and look amazing in photos! I also like to mix this with my double wear (just a tiny tiny bit) to cool down the pinky tones that i think is in all shades no matter if it is cool warm or neutral.  

Nars...thats all i have to say.  Love it love it love it! the concealer lasts me for ever, the shade i use is vanilla to highlight at the same time.  My new favourite blush is the dual intensity in Frenzy, it has a peachy blush colour and a gold shimmer so you can glam up your cheeks!

Last on my list is a new discovery while on our honeymoon.  Verona... the beautiful little city opened my eyes to some new brands and Kiko is like Christmas and birthdays all at once!  The products are pretty damn awesome and super reasonable in price.  I picked up this Volumizing and Lengthening Mascara for just €7.95!!! It works wonders, i would say it has a similar brush to the Benefit they're real mascara and isn't far off the finish either.

What is your favourites at the minute?


Feels good to be back!

Once we receive the final edits of our wedding photos i will do a little post on our magical day... so look out for that!!
