To celebrate the summer equinox season I am really excited not announce Herbowski Soaps and Oils as the next release from Untitled No 1, Joining the founding Jo Leversuch brushes as the latest products in the range.

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. I wanted to share with you today one of their latest releases and what I use with it to create my own natural looking brow. 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...

Back in March you might remember I held an event with Kiss the Moon where I was introducing my new businessUntitled No 1 and its first collection of bespoke vegan makeup brushes. Since then I've been hooked on a few products of their own that we decided to pull together a few key products that really spoke to me and create the "Loved By Jo" Bundle! That way you can conveniently pick up my favourites to add to your collection.   If you weren't already aware, Kiss the Moon was founded in 2019 by Jo Foster in the search of using cruelty free, 100% natural ingredients...

I recently received a review from a very happy customer who was one of the first to buy brushes from my new range and it was exactly what I was hoping people would feel when I started Untitled No 1 with these brushes. I loved what Harriet had to say about her Detailed Brush and thought it was the perfect way for people to get to know this brush so I'm going to share it with you here. For all the technical aspects she may mention the self care element is my favourite, because at the end of the day that's what is so important to me too! "After receiving my Detailed Brush from Untitled No 1 I couldn't...

It's time to break the rules and carve out our own path to modern beauty. This week I'm sharing with you how, armed with my Untitled No 1 brushes, I am creating my own version of just that. Featuring in F Word Magazine, an eclectic platform practically overflowing with up and coming talent featuring people from fashion, art, music, lifestyle fields. Feeling inspired by the colours of the sky, the flowers and the insects of Spring and Summer Equinox seasons resulted in this delicate beautiful make-up look. Captured in a clean and perfected manner by none other than Lee Scullion. Later stitched...

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...

This week I'm sharing with you my work with END. to mark the 35th anniversary of the Air Max 1. They were celebrating in style with the 'La Ville-Lumière' release especially for the anniversary and had me on board to create a look for the shoot. They had asked for a soft matte skin base which was perfect play off the harsh urban environment and the energy of these effervescent pastel sneakers. It was nice to mix things up after playing with a lot of glow and shine in my work lately, so I was excited I got to do a more neutral matte effect. I achieved this by prepping the skin with a delicate...

I might be biased, but this week I've got a shoot to share with you from the best bridal dream team the North East has to offer! I love working with these two on shoots and weddings, it's always such a relaxed vibe, good laugh and the end results are always exactly what I envisioned. I think the results here speak for themselves at both of their talents. You might recognise the photography style from last weeks blog, as it's none other than Lee Scullion I'm talking about who also shot the wonderful Leaf for her wedding. The member of our creative trio is Gareth Lambert, who never fails...

Where do I begin with the wedding of Mr and Mrs Goddard? As I am writing this blog post and scheduling it to go out, it is exactly two years ago we were put into that first fateful lockdown and all weddings were postponed until further notice. It feels like so much longer now as we all start to catch up with our new normal and almost everyone who has faced a postponement has finally said their vows. The mad rush to fit every Bride in and the non-stop work I have been ever so grateful for to get back on my feet, it's been a whirlwind.   Amongst that whirlwind was the wonderful...
