Birthday Makeup

ByLisa Jayne 



Today is no normal Thursday, it’s in fact my 24th birthday! I don’t have any major birthday plans today, as I’ll be at work for most of the day. But I’ll be celebrating tonight with my parents, as it’s also their wedding anniversary, so for our special day we’re all going out for dinner. As it’s my birthday I thought I’d wear some of my favourite makeup products, especially as I’m then going out tonight.




My current favourite foundation is Dior’s Star, mostly because of how gorgeous it makes my skin look, but also because it lasts all day. I hate having to reapply makeup again, so this is perfect for today. As I loved Dior’s Star foundation I also bought their concealer, which is probably one of the best I’ve tried for sometime. It’s brilliant at hiding my dark circles and blemishes, and of course I don’t want any of them showing today! I used to always colour my eyebrows in with eyeshadow, but recently I’ve been using Soap & Glory’s Arch De Triumph, and it’s fantastic. It has a brow shade on one side and a highlight shade on the other, which helps to give my brows the perfect shape. For thick full looking lashes my current go to is No. 7’s Intense Volume Mascara, it just doubles the length of my lashes. To finish off my makeup I’m planning to use Soap & Glory’s Glow All Out luminazing face powder, and then I’ll apply my Clinique Chubby Stick in Pudgy Peony. 




I really like this makeup look, there’s still a bit of colour with the lipstick but it’s not too much for when I’m at work.  Now to go enjoy my birthday and eat lots of cake! 😉

Origins Clear Improvement Charcoal Mask

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
I only really discovered Origins products earlier this year when I started off with the Never A Dull Moment Cleanser.  I got on so well with the cleanser, and found the sales assistant so helpful that I decided to go back for more skin care advice. I had a chat with her about what I wanted from…

A New Skin Care Favourite

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
I mentioned on the blog the other day about how I’ve been trying out organic skin care, and how the condition of my skin has been improving. In fact in the last couple of months I’ve become somewhat of a skin care junkie, putting all sorts of lotions and potions on my face. I think…

I Love… Mango & Papaya Hand Wash

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
Something I really like is lovely smelling shower gels. hand washes and moisturisers. I just love using them, and being able to smell it ages later. So when I spotted this in Boots, I couldn’t resist. I’ve been a fan of the I Love… range for ages, and I’m slowing working my way through trying…

Natural Collection Blush In Peach Melba

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
Natural Collection tends to be a brand I’ve ignored in Boots. It just always reminded me of when I was 12/13 and started first playing with makeup. I always thought that because their products were cheap that they wouldn’t be any good.  It wasn’t until a couple of months ago I heard about some of…
