re.commed: SALE at Illamasqua!

Just a quick post to alert or remind you of a great sale going on at Illamasqua.com at the moment. It's a great brand and they've added a few new lines to the sale here  including some pigments that I've been waiting to try out for a while now in 'Ore' and 'Furore'. I've also just placed an order for some of the powder and cream blushes.

Expect reviews soon (I also have a long line of recently bought products to write up about :s sorry!) but I would grab these pigments while you can! Vivianna Does Makeup has done a review of 'Ore' in a makeup look which you can check out here  and a charming birthday look here . Beautiful!

re.commend: Everyday makeup brushes!

As many of us do, I recently went home to visit my family over the winter holidays. Trying to pack light, I faced the perpetual dilemma of what makeup to pack! In the first of a mini-series, I'll be sharing you the essentials that I managed to pare down my routine to. I will be posting about the brushes I eventually packed (actually turned out to be slightly different from these), the makeup I packed to travel for two weeks, skincare, and extra bits and bobs of beauty essentials. 

First up - my everyday brushes!
