• I kinda like this eye look. This cool toned smokey eye was done using the @bhcosmetics desert oasis palette, which is also #crueltyfree 👌 . It was nice to play with some makeup rather than all the adulting I’ve been doing lately. 🙋‍♀️ .

  • Have you ever wondered how you can have nail extensions without damaging your nails? Me too and I’ve finally found how! . Ever had your nails done to wake up the next day and they throb with pain? Me too! I used to get this all the time with acrylic extensions and the amount of damage they caused to my nails I decided was just not worth it. However, I’ve found a system that’s not only breathable for the nail plate but also contains vitamin A and E to nourish the natural nail. The system is also 100% #vegan . I’ll be sharing a full blog review on the system, my experience and the end result shortly.. but what I will say is I won’t be going back to acrylics. . Thanks to @the_natural_beauty_lounge and the lovely Arliah for creating a beautiful set of natural looking damage free extensions for me. . #nailsofinstagram #nails #vegannails #vegansalon #veganproducts #veganbeauty #breathablenails #nontoxic #crueltyfree #veganbeauty #crueltyfreebeauty #nailinspo #extensions #nailextensions #bblog #beautyblogger #ukbeautyblogger #beautygram #evonails

  • *gifted When you can’t choose one new colour for spring.. you choose three.. I’m getting my bright colour vibes on. ☀️ . These mini bottles are perfect for trying out new colours. @mavalauk @spaprcompany
  • When it comes to getting that summer glow this has to be one of my favourite products. And @beccacosmetics Are renowned for their glowy skin. . Be a light face palette which includes a brightening powder, blur powder, contour powder and a blush. . Your skin, but better.
  • I’ve been having a little play with some @delilahcosmetics goodies this weekend! . I won this little lot last year but had been saving them until I had a chance to have a good play. They are beyond LOVELY and just look at the packaging... opulence at its finest. Other brands may want to up their game! . The ethics of this company are also right up my street. . Stay posted for my full thoughts over on my blog in the next couple of days. . #delilahcosmetics #delilah #beauty #beautygram #beautygrammer #makeupaddict #makeuptutorial #makeuptutorial #makeupblogger #lipstick #beautycommunity #bblog #blogger #beautyblog #discoverbeauty #lipenvy #makeupgoals #indiebeauty #crueltyfree #crueltyfreemakeup #crueltyfreebeauty
