AUGUST UPDATE!

Where did August go? Anyone else feel the same... I feel like it went so fast and the heat wave summer is coming to end which feels me with dread if I'm honest. I am such a summer girl I have loved the ongoing heatwaves! I just cannot get excited about autumn, grey rainy weather and winter clothes argh! Anyway I will throw myself into work to get me through! I have a few exciting projects on the go at the moment and all will be revealed this autumn/winter so watch this space!

Some of my recent hair and makeup work I've snapped along the way this month.






















































































































I have also been working more on creating social content, and dare I say I am actually quite enjoying the creativity of it all! This is a gifted product (3-in-1 Miracle Formula) from the wonderful brand Rosalique which I do use and have used for many years, it is fantastic for rosacea and sensitive red prone skin.

JULY UPDATE!

A whirlwind month of sunny hot summer days, weddings, a makeup workshop, special occasion hair and makeup's, a holiday in Puglia and the World Cup!

Puglia was beautiful, we had a lovely trip! We stayed in stunning white washed Ostuni and hired a car so that we could visit lots of other villages and beaches.  It certainly was a busy trip we saw a lot and there is a lot we sadly missed...certainly is a lot to see and do there!


















































































































































































































Spending time with Rufus outside has been lovely he is such an outdoors boy he loves it as much as me, we are both straight into the garden when we wake up!

















































Weddings at two of my favourite venues including South Farm where I had two weddings this month with its quirky gypsy caravans and Tewin Bury Farm with its Tewin room which is lovely and spacious, bright and airy to get ready in. Also images from a wedding at Shortmead house. Apologies for all the hair images and not so many of makeup but sometimes it is more difficult to take photos of faces.











































































































































































Finally a bespoke natural makeup workshop with this lovely group of friends. October makeup workshops return soon so do keep an eye on dates via my website www.nikimakeup.co.uk and instagram @nikimakeup Book your space early as spaces are extremely limited. Gift Vouchers also available.

































As I write this I am now signing off for five nights holiday in Marbella. 

See you in August and enjoy the rest of the summer.
