No.7 Pro Artist Moisture Muse Lipstick in shade 'Rose Couture'.
Wow! I am seriously impressed with this sheer lip colour, this is a definite "Friday Fave"!
It is the perfect colour for anyone who doesn't like wearing lipstick or doesn't know which shade to choose. A little rosier than your natural lip colour (cool rose) it really enhances your lips whilst not feeling heavy or uncomfortable to wear. It feels very nourishing and hydrating and adds a hint of colour and shine without being sticky like a lip gloss. I love to keep it in my pocket and re-apply throughout the day.
Do not get me started on the gorgeous packaging! I am absolutely in love with the slim-line casing and the glorious click as you pop the lid back on to it.
If like me you always wear a lip liner pencil which I do recommend to define and make the most of your lips Charlotte Tilbury 'Pillow Talk' pairs perfectly with this shade.
This particular shade is my current staple and will definitely be a firm favourite in my pro' kit too.
PRO TIP!Apply a lip pencil all over the lips lightly first then apply a generous two or three coats of the lip colour for extra staying power.

I have long been a fan of the Rosalique 3-in-1 Anti-redness miracle formula which is excellent for covering redness and has SPF 50. I have used this daily for many years to improve the appearance of my mild rosacea.
However in recent months I have been using the redness relief day cream and I really love it. This cream immediately calms and soothes my skin nourishing it without feeling greasy or heavy. A definite Friday Fave!
I highly recommend this if you suffer from redness or have sensitive skin.
For best results I would follow up with the 3 in 1 Anti redness Miracle formula SPF 50.

This was a pretty cool month even though the weather was still shocking here in the UK as my husband and I got some winter sun in Miami.
We loved it! even though when we arrived it was colder than the UK for the first couple of days - very rare weather for Miami thankfully the sun and warmth soon returned. We stayed on South Beach which was a perfect location to explore. We loved Ocean Drive, South beach, the art and design districts and also visited Little Havana for a cuban coffee and famous cuban sandwich. We also saw a basketball game which was so much fun and definitely a highlight on the trip.
In February I have been busy with makeup 1:1 lessons and group workshops, bridal trials and special occasion hair and makeup. I also had a Headshots shoot in London where I did hair and makeup for twelve Ladies and gents in a Leadership team.
I also made some time to paint and Spring is in the air!
