Funny Story, last night was "Meet The Parents" night for us & YEP! you've guessed it, this time WE were the parents 🙄 I don't know what's worse the realisation that you're daughter's old enough to Actually want to bring someone home or that We've reached the age of being at " possible in-law" stage!?

I always feel extremly grateful when I get sent out a #pr package & the ones from @pixibeauty are always something special! I still have to pinch myself when I receive such beautiful gifts from any companies as I never feel deserving. This Look I decided to incorporate some of the recent products from #pixibeauty that I know & love along with some I've never tried.... #gifted _____________________________________ Makeup; @spectrumcollections Ariel Collection Brushes @47skin silver Chitosan Regenorative Serum @bybibeauty Buriti Booster @revolutionskincare Hydration Boost Gel Cream @bybibeauty Babebalm Bronze as Primer @pixibeauty Cover & Conceal Light @perriconemd NO Concealer Concealer @pixibeauty champagne Gilded Bare glow @pixibeauty Rose Glow Face mist @pixibeauty Eye Reflections palette @lolamakeup Gel Liner Brows; @milkmakeup Brow Pencil/ Kush Gel Lips; @bhcosmetics Samantha lip pencil @jordanaticiacosmetics pixi Dust Nails - @sensationailgel @sparklepruk (gifted) _____________________________________ #beautylook #crueltyfreebeauty #makeuplook #affordablemakeup #over40beauty #over40makeup #motdcosmetics #instabeauty #beautypr #cleanbeautyrevolution #veganrevolution #revolutionbeauty #skincarelover #skincareblogger #skincareonbsessed #crueltyfreeskincare #scottishblogger #over40blogger #cleanbeauty #honestreview #honestbeauty #editorial #editorialmakeup #photoshoot #photographerslife
If you follow me then you'll know I'm all about the "Fresh Look" when it comes to skin. I don't do Matte, it just doesn't suit my 40year old skin - basically it makes me look old! I've worked with @bybibeauty for about 18months using and reviewing their skincare products ( which I love!) So when they said they were bringing out a Bronzing version of their incredibly popular #Babebalm Of course I was going to be the Guinea Pig! The #bronzebabebalm well it's exactly the same as the original formulae BUT with colour! Yes it's even more perfect which I didn't think possible. But don't panic! It's very sheer,you can build the colour to whatever consistency/look you like - I mean I'm basically as white as a vampire so if it looks ok on me - You're fine! I have also used it here in this look on the eyes. I've sheered out a @fentybeauty highlighter with a @spectrumcollections A16 brush to create a gloss look lid & it worked really well, no clumping or sticking 🙏😍 *** full review coming in blog ____________________________________ @lolamakeup mascara / black gel liner ( smudged) @profusion_uk crystal lipgloss @itcosmetics CC Cream Light/ Fair @delilahcosmetics Radiance Concealer @milkmakeup Brow Pencil / Kush Gel _____________________________________ #yogaskin #glowingskin #editorialmakeup #glossylids #glossyeyes #crueltyfree #crueltyfreeskincare #crueltyfreemakeup #veganskincare #veganmakeup #crueltyfreemua #beautypr #makeuplook #over40beauty #scottishblogger #scottishmua #affordablemakeup #spectrumcollections #instabeauty #instamakeup #instalook #lupusbeauty
I have been desperate to try this brand out Forever! So of course being brow crazy like I am I went straight for the Kush Brow Gel! So many thoughts, Views & opinions on this little tube of goodness..... Well for me ( being the brow connoisseur that I am) 🤣 I actually love the Brush. It's the perfect size, it grabs every single hair & coats them perfectly without clumping or sticking them together. I like a gel that sets my brows in place and although this one gives them some lift and volume it doesn't prop them up quite like the #boybrow does. Although I think I might have preferred it if I could have bought the Brown colour but unfortunately it was sold out, so I opted for the clear just for now. I will still try the Brown because the finish and consistency might be slightly different so watch this space..... I would reccommend buying this if You like a natural looking brow with some hold and no sticky consistency. Its also perfect for taming those little fly away baby hairs that never stay down, the tiny wand gets all of them in a sec! 😘💖 ____________________________________ #bblogger #makeupreview #crueltyfreeblogger #crueltyfreebeauty #veganblog #veganmakeup #scottishblogger #scottishmua #kushbrow #milkmakeup #boybrow #instabeauty #instamakeup #flatlaystyle #makeupinspo #makeupphotos #instamakeup #instaart #instaphoto #photoshoot #photo #instabeauty #editorialmakeup #editorial #bblog #ukblogger #bbloggeruk #over40blogger #honestreview #makeupjunkie #makeupobsessed
We got that Friday Feeling with the New Foil Frenzy Palette from @makeuprevolution 💃🌠 #gifted They said "One Swipe Formulae" .... So of course I wanted to play & see if that was truly the case?! After all I do dabble in the odd eyeshadow look here and there. This palette is for sure different to any of the other glitter palettes from revolution I've used before. Not only is it softer, creamer, much more pigmented, it does indeed give you immense colour in one swipe! Usually you get a shade or two in a palette like this one that doesn't quite live up to expectations, Nope! Not here- They All deliver and every shade has stunning undertones. If you wet your finger or brush and then dip in you are in for an even bigger treat. So, if you love colour and some sparkle this is definitely for you 💖😍. _____________________________________ All Makeup Worn is @makeuprevolution Brushes used @spectrumcollections Skincare @47skin & @bybibeauty Jumper @zara _____________________________________ #glittereyes #eyelook #eyemakeup #selfiequeen #editorialmakeup #revolutionmakeup #foilfrenzy #crueltyfreemua #crueltyfreemakeup #veganmakeup #scottishblogger #bblogger #crueltyfreeskincare #crueltyfreeblogger #eyeshadowpalettes #eyeshadowreview #scottishgirl #mistermakeup1 #teamrevolution #bybibeauty #47skin #bybibeauty #ukbrands #affordablemakeup #highstreetmakeup #over40blog #over40beauty #over40blogger #over40model
The WATERPROOF REVOLUTION has arrived! Have you tried it yet? Well if your in doubt.... just take a look for yourself, This picture is not telling any lies. Yep! The mascara really has taken my lashes from 0 - 1000% in a couple of swipes and I was blown away. I've used the original one and although I like it, it doesn't give me any way near this volume, lift and length. For me, this is huge as I lose my lashes frequently they thin and fall out due to heavy medication usage and my illness. Using false lashes is usually my go to But that can cause damage too. **My only niggle....? maybe make the Brush a little smaller, or have the option of a smaller brush?.. Apart from that, This mascara is incredible, You need it in your life ASAP 😘💖 #gifted _____________________________ All Makeup Worn @makeuprevolution @revolutionskincare @revolutionpro _____________________________ #mascara #mascarareview #makeuprevolution #newproduct #crueltyfreemascara #revolutionmakeup #makeuprevolutionlondon #makeupjunkie #makeupobsessed #bblogger #scottishblogger #crueltyfreemakeup #veganmakeup #veganblogger #beautypr #lovemakeup #bblove #over40beauty #over40blogger #mistermakeup1 #teamrevolution #selfie #selfiereadybeauty
