Make Up That Wakes Up!

Dewy, glowy, illuminated...whatever you want to call it, most of the Beauty Method Tribe that I work with have one thing in mind when they seek my advice and services.'

They want to glow!

Whether you combine a liquid illuminator with your foundation or amp it by layering liquid and powder illuminator, we've got the low down of the best to have you Ready, Set, Glow!

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter in Opal : I haven't yet found a powder illuminator that I love more.

For the ultimate POP, dust this over a liquid illuminator like Josie Maran or Becca with a fan brush or the Nars Mie Kabuki Brush

Not to be outdone by the more expensive products, Nude by Nature's Touch of Glow Highlighter Stick is a fool proof liquid illuminator which lets you literally draw where you want to apply. I love using this one across the collarbones at night

Josie Maran Cosmetics Argan Enlightenment Illuminiser is organic gorgeousness and it won't disappoint - a little goes a long way and an added bonus...it wont break the bank!

Becca ft. Jaclyn Hill's Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid Champagne Pop is my new fav, amazing blended through your foundation or as a base for the Becca Pressed Highlighter...it is as the name suggests the ultimate 'skin perfector'!

Hourglass Universally Flattering Highlighting Powder is a very subtle, long wearing formula that is great for when you need a work day make up skin pep up)

Mac Strobe Cream in Peachlite is part moisturiser part illuminator and is perfect for the Girl on the Glow. Use it as a Primer or combine it with your BB Cream or Foundation for a subtle, yet instant skin pick me up.

The unique difference of Estee Lauder's Double Wear Cushion Stick Highlighter is its clever little retractable applicating sponge which allows you to get the perfect amount every time. The Double Wear collection has a great reputation and this highlighter doesn't disappoint. It highlights subtly to give you a your skin but better result.

Add to cart, away you glow! xx

Cognac Leather...

Like the drink, cognac leather is sophisticated and creates a certain sense of warmth. Let's face it any design feature that involves a fine liquor in its name has to be up there on the list of favourites!I love the idea of layering textures and this fabrication, which is dyed into gorgeous caramel hues, allows you to do just that.
Whether you want to go masculine and chic by teaming with deep navy or go island luxe with creamy textiles, kilim rugs and raw materials, anything goes...
