New Nars!

I've recently been on a makeup spending splurge and came across this amazing studio cheek palette from Nars. The palette contains Laguna (the best bronzer in the business), 4 X blush shades (including infamous Orgasm) and a contour and highlight duo. What more could you ask for?! 

I liked to take this on set as I have everything I could need when I'm shooting - but it's a great palette for your dressing table too, look at that mirrored top - swooooon :)

YSL Beauty Haul Review

I've only over used Touche Eclat from the YSL beauty range and having a Frenchaphile moment I recent found myself at their counter.

Their mascara has been recommended to me for years but at £26 I've been resisting!! The first thing you notice about it is the amazing smell; floral and expensive. The product it's self is super dupa black and creamy with a thick bristle brush. After a weeks use, I'd give it 7/10. My lashes look thicker and longer BUT is it a bit smudgy on the bottom lashes...

I also bought their iconic 1 Rouge red lipstick. WOW. This is amazing. It's not totally matte but somehow stays on, doesn't bleed AND has the amazing floral smell too. I'm addicted. Also the lovely heavy gold packaging makes me feel super chic :)

New year; New career!

My next two day weekend course is running 27th and 28th February 2016 and spaces are very limited. Email info@makeupmanchester.co.uk for more info and rates.

Below are some gorgeous BTS images from my January course day two beauty shoot..
