Last week was a bit of a blur it went so fast so at least Instagram can give me an idea of what my week consisted of other than work! Haha! At least with this gorgeous sunny weather, it’s easier to get some better and brighter photos!
Today’s Makeup choices. I’m not convinced I like the Smoky Palette any more. I haven’t used it for a while but reviewing my look today, I think it’s the fact that cool tones don’t really work for my eyes. I’m loving using oranges and other rich colours but greys don’t really do anything for me. Do you have this palette? What are your thoughts?
Morning v. Evening – spot any faves?
New blog post! My initial impressions of the new serum and coverage foundations from The Ordinary. The Ordinary Foundation First Impressions Review – check it out.
Using acids in my routine and retinoid or acid at night screams for the use of SPF of a morning…….today has been a gloriously sunny day so I opted for The Body Shop Skin Defence SPF50 – I have reviewed this if you want to check it out here: The Body Shop Skin Defence Review
Got to love NARS …..here’s my favourite makeup items by them….what’s your favourite brand?
New blog post! Check out my review Aveniro Glass Nail Files here: Aveniro Glass Nail Files
Throwback Thursday to 2014 when I made the chacha final in Blackpool 🙂
Throwback Thursday to 2015 when I made the Paso Double Final in Blackpool. Love love love to dance…..I should be at class tonight but have been unwell again so best I rest up. With the next competition in around 5 weeks, I need to listen to my body and rest if I need to. I’ll be back on it next week.
Think it’s safe to say I’m a fan of the Ordinary……have you tried any other products from this brand? What are your faves?
Makeup of the day! Gloriously sunny day today so thought I’d go for my Nars Dual Intensity Eyeshadow in Tarvos…..to pretty to take a photo with the lid closed! What colours do you prefer to use in summer?
Makeup Choices. Spot any faves?
I’ve been meaning to paint my nails all week…..had this colour out on my side the whole week….talk about a busy week!! So….today, mini pamper treat for my hands! Do you ever mean to do something then never get round to it?
(Update on the photo above…….it’s almost another week later and my nails are still unpainted! I’ve used the scrub and hand cream however and they’re gorgeous!!)
Today’s makeup. The Embryolisse cream worked so well as a primer but I’m still on the fence with it so thought I’d try the face cream from Waitrose as that contains a very light shea butter. Works brilliantly underneath my Nars Sheer Glow and set with RCMA. Also finally used my GOSH Forever Eyeshadow in Light Copper.
Makeup Look for the above post 🙂
So that’s all for this week’s Instagram revisit!

Thank you!! I’ve been so busy lately that my actual blog posts get neglected (and I’m so behind on reading posts!!) but Instagram I use a lot so thought I’d at least do this every week 😂

I know the feeling – some weeks I just don’t have time but I’m trying to plan in advance (even then, it doesn’t always work).
