Top Tips

It's time to let you into a little bit more of my work which doesn't relate to weddings. I love keeping up to date across all avenues in the make-up industry to ensure I'm always giving my brides the best that they can get. I've worked in this field for such a long time now and it never bores me, there's always fresh ideas, concepts and products arriving in unexpected corners of the make-up world and I am so grateful my varied work has given me such a wealth of experiences that I can then pass on to my brides. I've posted about this brand here before but if you're new here then let me introduce...

I'm very specific when it comes to the skin base as you may know, it's what I am most known for in the make-up world and it takes a special product for me to consider using it as part of my perfected routines. I'm not a huge lover of layering lots of product onto the skin, so I can be very selective in what I'm using but as you will see in my video below I think Nanoblur has won me over to be worth adding in the kit!     As soon as I received the Nanoblur I knew I had to try it as soon as possible, it's become infamous since its use on HBO's Euphoria and all their awe inspiring...

As you must know by now a few years ago Soap Brow was born, the mini magic soap in the tin I love to rave on about here and on all my socials. Since then the founding company WBCo have gone from strength to strength as a brand launching several more amazing products.

In addition to the Original and Tinted Soap Brows, they now also offer the Extra Strong Soap Brows. Launched in April I’ve been loving how this stronger edition is perfect for keeping my brows in place all day long...

As one of the Brand Ambassadors for West Barn Co I am so proud to see their latest launch that really hits the spot, literally! WBCo Hydro Dots are tiny, discreet and clear hydrocolloid patches which supply a solution of 1% salicylic acid directly to the source of your problem. Designed to protect the area for healthy healing whilst drawing out and absorbing any impurities and excess oil, these dots are perfect for anyone struggling to control their breakouts!   I know it's the advice none of us want to heed warning to, myself included... but we've really got to stop picking at our spots!...

Peep Club was launched in 2020 with the approach that we need to care for our eyes better. A modern take on eye care, their Instant Relief Eye Spray is especially considered due to all the technology and screens many of us spend our days gazing into now. It's no secret why this little bottle of goodness won awards from the Beauty Bible this year. Since trying it out last June it quickly became part of my daily routine, but it slipped out of habit for a bit. After picking it back up again it's almost a year later and now I'd class it as one of my must have products I carry in my own make-up...

For those of you that know me well you will already know what a huge lover of Steamcream I am. It's one of my must have all time moisturisers that I've used in both my kit and my personal life for many years now. I have tried and tested it up against the many moisturisers that pop up every year promising us the earth, but Steamcream always prevails as my favourite time and time again. This is so much so that the original Streamcream that comes with a delicate lavender scent has almost become a trade mark with me, my regular models and clients know to expect to see it when I open up my kit for the day....

The first day consisted of a very beautiful and traditional church wedding, only to be followed on the second day with a huge party which even included a military presence from the Queen's Guards. It's safe to say this couple really know how to celebrate in style, so to be included as part of the team pulling this day together was a real honour. The vibe of Posie's makeup was really about creating a natural emphasis, an understated no makeup...
