FRIDAY FAVE! BY TERRY HYALURONIC PRESSED HYDRA-POWDER

Friday Fave! By Terry Hyaluronic pressed Hydra-Powder


A Skin care first pressed powder!


Contains70% mineral-based ingredients and 8x Hyaluronic Acid Types Exclusive Technology.


 Vegan and clean formula & Talc free.


Perfect for on the go or if you dislike the mess of a loose powder complete with integrated mirror & puff to keep your makeup perfected and protected all day.


A translucent pressed powder that sets, mattifies, blurs imperfections, fills in pores, fines lines & wrinkles on the skin without drying out the skin. Oils are controlled whilst keeping the skin in its natural radiance.


Skin really does look flawless and perfectly smooth personally I love the way it magically erases my pores and fine lines!


The science bit!

The 8x Hyaluronic Acid Types Exclusive Technology in three molecular weights 

- The high-molecular-weight Hyaluronic Acid delivers immediate and intensive hydration to the surface layers of the skin and prevents dehydration.

- The medium-molecular-weight Hyaluronic Acid plumps the skin and provides a smoother skin surface.

- The low-molecular-weight Hyaluronic Acid ensures a deeper, long-lasting hydration of the epidermis.


My Pro tip! Apply a very small amount to a brush/puff and press onto the back of your hand prior to application so that you do not apply to much product in one application, then build and layer by applying two to three times in the same way.


Application results in the complexion looking matte and even. Imperfections such as open pores are definitely disguised. This powder is perfect for creating a full matte finish.


I would recommend this for paler skins as I do find you have to apply quite a bit of bronzer and or blush to warm the face after application so it would not be the best option for all skin tones in my opinion!


Overall I love this powder it is a new firm staple in my personal makeup bag as well as in my professional kit.


RRP £42.00

October Update!

Wow! Wedding season has officially come to an end, what a year! I had eleven beautiful Bride's in October unheard-of!  It has been such a busy fun filled year of work and I am so grateful for every Bride that chose me to be a part of their special day and all the other clients that booked me this year too... what a come back after covid shut down mine and so many other businesses and very sadly some that were not so lucky to survive.  

I still have a few more winter weddings but the peak is over so definitely a couple of weekends off for me ahead! 

What gorgeous warm sunny autumn days we are having!  I have been enjoying some lovely dog walks and just check out so many clear bright blue skies in my photos!


















Here's a few of my recent work pictures captured on my I-phone!

Coltsfoot country recent has been my office for the last three Sunday's working inside a cute little shepherd hut surrounded by sheep! 































































I met beautiful Karla for the first time on her wedding day at Sheen Mill, she did not live nearby so there was no opportunity for a trial run. This rarely happens but on the odd occasion it has I am pleased to say all has gone very well! I did both Karla's hair and make up.





























I visited stunning Notley Abbey this month a venue I have not been to in a while but definitely a favourite!

























































I also visited Plum Park hotel, my first time to this venue but hopefully not my last.  The staff here were extremely helpful to me when I arrived.











































I was at Luton Hoo for my last October bride where I am lucky enough to be a Recommended supplier, such a beautiful location to work at with the best bridal preparation views I have seen.   
I loved creating this hairstyle, part up part down variations are definitely my favourite style to do.
 




























Pendley Manor was the Location for this beautiful Bride's hair and makeup.













































As a Recommended supplier at beautiful St Michaels Manor it is definitely my favourite venue locally, and what a gorgeous October day it was for a wedding here!





















































































I am taking bookings for 2023/24 weddings. Book early to avoid disappointment via www.nikimakeup.co.uk

Friday Fave: Becca Under Eye Brightening Corrector

BECCA Under Eye Brightening Corrector gets a thumbs up from me!

Relatively new to my professional kit I have been using this for the last couple of months and I am liking the results!

This creamy corrector banishes under eye darkness by brightening under the eyes and correcting the skin tone. It does not settle in fine lines and wrinkles and prepares skin beautifully for concealer.
A creamy consistency that offers perfect coverage and illumination to the under eye area.

Available in two shades Light to Medium and Medium to Dark.

Simply pat on using fingertips or apply with a synthetic haired makeup brush.  I like to blend this pink toned camouflage into the skin using my ring finger to neutralise any darkness, it blends and melts into skin effortlessly.

To prevent the product from drying out keep the cap tightly closed.




£24.00 Available at www.spacenk.com

Friday Fave: Paul Mitchell Color Protect Daily Conditioner 300ml

This week's "Friday Fave" is Paul Mitchell Color Protect Daily Conditioner which I have been using for a good month or so now.  I am a huge fan and indeed of the daily shampoo.

This is excellent for colour treated hair.  My hair colourist for the first time ever said my hair seemed in much better condition, I am convinced it is totally down to this Paul Mitchell shampoo and conditioner combo!

Enriched with proteins, amino acids and panthenol it strengthens and moisturises helping to repair colour treated hair.

Apply a small amount to your palms and massage into the hair, you will notice hair instantly de- tangles and feels silky and smooth.

My hair feels shinier and healthier than it has in a long time. I recommend using this in conjunction with the daily shampoo (£11.75).



Paul Mitchell Color Protect Daily Conditioner Retails at £14.50
