October Update!

October has been a quieter working month for me so I have tried to slow down a bit and be in the moment and enjoy some time outdoors in the autumn sun with my new puppy Rufus, we have had some fun times exploring together...he even made his first train journey into London.  Sorry to bore you with puppy photos but he too cute, you can follow him on Instagram and Tik Tok @rufustheredtoypoodle if you are a crazy dog lover like me!

I was invited to do hair and makeup for a model shoot for https://www.thecotswoldhatclub.co.uk, do check out the gorgeous hats if you are in need! I used natural autumnal shades of makeup and softly waved the model Amber's hair.

I did hold some makeup workshops at my home studio as well recently which is a really great fun way to learn some new makeup skills and some of my pro' tips in small friendly groups, plus there is fizz, nibbles and a goody bag! 

I am a recommended supplier at https://www.offleyplace.com and attended their wedding showcase at the beginning of this month.  I am also thrilled to be a recommended supplier at https://stmichaelsmanor.com, two stunning Hertfordshire venues, do check them out!

I had a lovely wedding for Michaela at  https://www.millingbarn.co.uk who opted for soft, modern vintage hair and makeup and her beautiful maid of honour who went with her natural curl and natural makeup.

I have been doing some collage and painting too in my spare time, you can follow my art account @nikicreates on instagram.

I have limited peak wedding dates available next year now so do book all of your favourite suppliers early to avoid disappointment.  I am also now taking bookings now for 2026 dates.

FRIDAY FAVE! Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Fair Lipstick

I confess I brought this colour to add to my pro' kit but I absolutely love it and haven't stopped wearing it in the last two weeks I have had it, so I will have to order another for my kit as this one is staying firmly in my handbag!

Pillow Talk Fair is cool toned pink with a satin finish, the perfect shade for fair skin tones. It reminds me a lot of MAC Faux for any MAC lovers out there, which has always been a personal favourite of mine as it is the only lipstick I have ever worn that my husband said he liked! 

I like to apply the original 'pillow talk' lip cheat pencil to define lips prior to applying this colour as I find it gives a little more definition on the lip shape, but it obviously pairs perfectly with lip cheat liner 'pillow talk fair' as well.

Pillow talk lipsticks are long lasting and conditioning so feel very comfortable to wear not to mention the gorgeous rose gold packaging.

With one Pillow talk product selling every two seconds what are you waiting for!
