July Update!

A LOT of weddings this month I am now in peak wedding season throughout July and August, I still managed to find some time for makeup 1:1 lessons, makeup workshops and trial's ahead of autumn weddings.  I have worked with some stunning brides recently and met such lovely clients this month as well as working with other great wedding suppliers it has been jam packed and fun filled and I've loved every minute!


































































































































It has also been so nice to finally enjoy some sunnier warmer days, I definitely belong in sunshine!

We also celebrated our twelve year wedding anniversary this month and had a lovely Sunday roast lunch at https://thehawksmoor.com in London and a cheeky couple of dinners locally at https://www.primesteakandgrill.com/restaurants/st-albans/ in St Albans and https://vinsantobar.com in Harpenden. All three meals were fabulous and we highly recommend!

Delicious cocktails at Vin Santo










Dessert at The Hawksmoor










Complimentary Dessert at Prime 










I also visited https://smithsrestaurants.com/smiths-ongar/ for my Mums birthday which as always was very nice, especially this dessert!











I have also been doing some painting follow this journey currently @nikicreates on Instagram.

FRIDAY FAVE! ROUGE HERMĒS POPPY LIP SHINE

Ooh this was a nice treat! An anniversary gift from my husband! 

This colour is my kind of colour! I love any shade of coral or orange.  This particular one is a transparent sheer tone combining a subtle sparkly shine.  Perfect for those days when you want to look like you've made little or no effort! The colour enhances lips beautifully with mother-of-pearl micro-particles.

The packaging of this lipstick is just gorgeous! I love to listen to the click as it snaps shut, it simply oozes luxury!  The lip colour is packaged in a cute little cover inside an orange Hermēs box, I feel like I put it to bed every time I tuck it back inside the box!

This one is a definite personal Friday Fave!

Made in Italy and refillable!

RRP £62.00

Friday Fave! Charlotte Tilbury Unisex Healthy Glow

This tinted moisturiser is a personal favourite of mine, a firm staple in my personal make-up bag.

It is super hydrating and moisturising and gives a lovely natural tinted glow to the skin.

I honesty instantly feel more awake and my skin looks and feels so much better once I have this on!

I apply this after my normal moisturiser has settled, you can apply foundation and or concealer on top.

It is easy to apply, squeeze a a small pea sized amount from the tube and apply to the whole face using fingertips to warm and blend the product into the skin.

Containing tanning pigments it cleverly morphs to your own skin tone for a flawless natural finish.

For me it really is summer in a tube!
