Friday Fave! Rosalique Redness relief day cream

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.

February Update!

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!

FRIDAY FAVE! Dior Backstage Glow Palette 001 Universal glow

Dior Backstage Glow Palette in shade 001 Universal glow.

The Iconic Multi use face palette!

I love this palette mostly because it is so versatile you can use it as a highlighter dusted on the cheekbones, cupids bow and décolleté.  As a glowing blusher, as a bronzer that gives a gorgeous glow and as eye shadows.  I can easily and quickly do an entire eye look with the four colours included. 

Face, eyes and décolleté glowing and gorgeous.

I have one in my makeup bag and one in my pro kit and I wouldn't be without them!

Definitely a firm Friday Fave!

RRP. £47.00

January Update!

I had a lovely Christmas and New Year break, I hope you did too!

New Year was nice and quiet this year we visited Cley in Norfolk for a few days just me, my husband and our little pooch. It was freezing but sunny at least so we enjoyed some lovely country and beach walks alongside hearty pub stops.

I had three stand out fabulous Christmas presents this year a Joseph Joseph makeup station with mirror for my own personal use instead of a makeup bag overspilling and a separate brush set and a separate mirror it holds everything in one place and also a signed Bobbi Brown book which I devoured in a couple of days (I read all of Bobbi's books as teenager and she inspired me greatly to become a makeup artist) plus my cosy John Lewis new slippers which I literally barely take off.

I hate January and winter in general is just awful for me so I tend to hibernate as much as I possibly can... there has been a lot of Netflix and chill mode activated!  Also finishing off lots of Christmas left over chocolates and cakes...finally finished the delicious Christmas cake I made too.

My Chosen Guiding word for 2026 is "JOY" and I am truly trying to find joy in everything I do and bring a little joy to others.  I am making time for painting this year and when not in my makeup studio working I have been painting which has certainly brought me immense joy!

I have even been enjoying getting arty with my breakfast presentation!

It has certainly been a busy time for bookings this month and next year is looking very busy for weddings already so do book suppliers early to avoid any disappointment!

I have held a few makeup workshops this month which I really enjoyed and I have met some lovely ladies along the way.  I am planning lots more throughout this year so do keep an eye on my instagram and website for updates if you are interested. It has also been lovely meeting lots of my 2026 Brides for their pre-wedding trials as well.   I am looking forward to working at some gorgeous local venues over the coming months.
