STYLE STATION
I had the opportunity to help out one of my fellow M.A.C.H team members on Saturday, Hair & Make-u Artist Ashleigh Turner. It was great to get involved with such a good cause, raising money for breast cancer care. I also made some great contacts with stylist Denise Mac from company Pink Dotty and Joy Clothing which I am looking forward to working with on their VIP event in November.

Bank Holiday Weekend
I'm sure by now most of you are in full swing of the bank holiday weekend celebrations! I passed a few, might I say looking a little worse for wear this afternoon around York! Its a cup of tea for me as I best be getting home to pack my kit for a commercial clothing Brand shoot tomorrow..... yes that's right work on bank holiday Monday! Hope you all have fun tonight and the heads aren't too sore in the morning!
Sam's wedding
Just finished packing my hair and make-up kit and cleaning my brushes in preperation for Sam Plummers big day tomorrow. Looking forward to spending the morning helping Sam and her party get ready. Can't wait to see her in the dress! As it looked amazing from the sneak preview xxx
Special effects
London was fab last week, I took part in a five day intense refresher course in special effects make-up. Loved it! Created some wicked stuff and met some fab girls.
Fresh Minerals
As a true Mac queen and an avid fan, I never thought the day would come when another Make-up Brand truly rivals Mac in my mind!
Ever since I can remember I have loved Mac for its array of colours, its true staying power and pigment and for been at the forefront of fashion.
Whenever I find myself in front of the Mac counter I often feel as though I am that child again in a sweet shop, with the truly challenging decision of what to choose next, knowing its all of it I want really!
Now I am not saying for one minute I am discarding my Mac..........
Never..........
But I am definitely finding fresh minerals a real competitor. Having just completed a three part training course, Debut, Masters and Bridal class in fresh Minerals. I have discovered so many benefits about this make-up. Like Mac it too boasts rich pigment and staying power.
As a skeptic like many of you probably are about the mineral Make-up....
"What a powder Foundation, Nah! you wont get the same coverage as a liquid" I have now been proven wrong!
Whilst on the course we really got chance to get stuck in and try out the make-up. Its now the only base I will use on a daily basis on my skin. I find once it warms on the skin it gives the finish of a liquid foundation with a radiant glow but has the added benefit of been one of the most natural make-ups you can apply to your skin.
It stacks high in its list of positives, it doesn't contain toxic ingredients, chemicals, synthetics or harsh binders meaning it allows your skin to breath and doesn't block your pores. It is also beneficial to your skin, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties provided by the titanium and zinc oxide found in this product. Its also certified Vegan and Cruelty Free.
So as you can see it gets a huge thumbs up and I can definitely see it as something thats going to be stacking up next to the Mac in my make-up box.......

Easter Weekend
Phew...... What a fun but exhausting weekend I have just had!
I have just spent the whole of the Easter weekend face painting at Castle Howard.
I've had a fab time painting an array of faces with the lovely and extremely talented Jude.
We were blessed by the sunshine for most of the weekend, which been in a small markee in an open field in the midst of Castle Howard is most definitely a bonus and a far better way for us to spend it this year in maxi dresses and summer shoes, rather than the wellies and woolie jumpers which we were sporting last year.
The queue was endless for the full four days and so a massive thanks to all the parents for the moral boosts to the two weary face painters.
Bring on more fun times of summer face painting :)
This is Jude's website, definitely worth a look www.artifaces.co.uk (check out the gallery page)
