It may well be the 15th, but the valentines romance doesn’t have to end here. Whether you’re looking to treat yourself or surprise a special someone on love’s version of boxing day, I’ve got some great idea’s for you! Working with the Roxoa group I have the wonderful opportunity to see all the amazing new releases from some of the UK’s finest jewellery brands first hand and really get an appreciation for the passion and craftsmanship put into these luxurious pieces. It was a total treat creating make-up looks to match these valentines collections knowing that soon people across the country would soon be receiving these pieces as a testament of love. Here’s a look at why you should check out each brand and what I used to create each look. I hope you find something you like and if not you can always try the gift of make-up with Delilah Cosmetics.
