For me, Christmas isn't Christmas without a festive red lip. Whether it's to brighten up a casual jeans and bobble hat combo, or to add a fancy touch to a Christmas party outfit, a red lip screams 'it's Christmaaaas' à la Merry Xmas Everybody by Slade (niche reference perhaps...?). When I was a teenager, I … Continue reading The Best Festive Red Lipsticks | Blogmas Day 16

About a month or so ago, I did a round up of all the beauty bits I'd recently purchased.

Easy AND Wearable Green Eyeshadow Make-Up Look
Normally, I'm a very stick-with-what-you-know kind of person when it comes to make-up. I love a matte brown or slight golden shimmer on my eyes, maybe winged liner if I'm feeling brave, and a neutral lip, swapped for classic Christmas red at the end of the year.
