Make-up & Beauty love

Random make-up obsessions of the month...

For those who don't know I am a fully trained beauty therapist. I studied hard for 2 years and got distinctions in all my exams I love beauty soooo much, even sometimes i find im obsessed with it. I am very very girly soo love everything to do with beauty, i find myself looking at magazines, films, books, programmes anything with people in to see different make-up and beauty techniques. The make-up colours for Autumn/Winter 2013 are all berry's colours pinks/purples/nudes/reds/ blues and greens there are some really gorgeous looks about. These colours are also associated with vampires, which i am also obsessed with, well im obsessed with Twilight and vampire looks not that I actually want to be one, so needless to say I was very, very excited for the winter months to turn up so I could mix up my make-up. I only have a couple of berry colours at the moment, but my sister recently found an amazing mac make-up outlet site which has lipsticks for €2 so I'm stocking up for Christmas.If you remember from last months post we have been watching arrow, there is a character in it called Felicity Smoak, I love her! She has a really bubbly, slighty cringey personality she reminds me a lot of me, and she constantly wears amazing lipstick, I look forward to watching it every night so i can see which shade she wears. 

If your from Africa, why are you white?

I love Autumn and Winter months, dressing all snug, being all cosy at home, lots of fires and heating, but why do I have to be soooo white? I am a huge fan of fake tan in the summer months, well actually all year round (when Kelvin's dad first met me he thought I was Indian because of my tan yeyy) but recently I have neglected putting it on, and now I look through pictures and literally look like the ghost of Christmas past. Its hard enough being the whitest in my family with my brown husband and super brown baby, but seriously I am soooo white right now I HATE it!! I got a gorgee spray tan last time I was in England for only £10 but im not going to be there for ages, so I decided yesterday to start using a little bit of Dove gradual tan, its already making a difference. There is just something amazing about having a tan, i always feel skinnier and I find I can actually go out without make-up and not look like I've just risen from the dead. Hopefully soon I'll match baby Kelvin's perfect tan!!
