Just because the colder weather is upon us , it doesn't mean that your skin needs to suffer.  Forget about cracked cuticles and flaky skin — those are officially a thing of your past. You need to up your beauty routine to include products that will help to nourish your body from the inside out. Reach for products that offer hydrating ingredients and powerful proteins to revitalise your skin from head-to-toe.

Before I became a makeup I always used to keep my old mascara wands (and no its not some weird hoarder thing!) as they can be a great tool (and of course I would wash them before using them).  Nowadays I don't bother saving my old wands, (or spoolies) I buy bags of disposable mascara wands.  The main professional use for these disposable ones is so that I can hygienically apply makeup to my clients.

Choosing the right lipstick for your wedding day makeup can be difficult.  I often find this is the most time consuming part of a a bridal trial, as slight changes in lipstick colours can significantly alter how the makeup looks as a whole.

I think many brides-to-be often ask themselves whether booking a professional makeup artist for their wedding day is really worth it. After all, they do their own makeup day to day & often feel very comfortable doing so why pay someone else to do it?
