When your career or running your business means attending lots of networking events and dinners etc, and it’s so important to feel comfortable in these situations. As our appearance is one of the biggest factors that can determine whether we feel confident or not, we asked The Eyewear Stylist aka Daniel Scott, on how we should approach buying eyewear and the psychological impact it can have on you.

SUMMER MAKE UP TRENDS

Wanting to wake up your complexion from dull to full of colour?

Here’s a view to an ultra glossy look with flushed cheeks that is a hit this summer.

Mid tone blush is a new trending technique for blurring together your blush and under-eye makeup for a seamless finish. To achieve this dewy glossy look use a BB cream for your base only in the areas needing coverage.
First, dab the light-tone face powder under your eyes, on the side of your nose, and all the way up to the edge of your eye to cover up any under-eye bags or blemishes

Then I like to use cream blush to sweep over eyes, lips and cheeks.

I love to take my brush very close to the under eye, then taking the excess up onto my upper eyelids and then over the bridge of the nose.
Taking a cream highlighter, lightly dab over the high points of the face and the centre of the nose creating a glass skin effect.

Also bold blush is definitely a trend to try paired with current siren eyes to get anyone hot under the collar.

My top cream blush products:

“The Miracle Balm from Jones Road stays true to its name, adding a light veil of colour to enhance skin with a natural-flush appearance and a flawless soft-focus finish.”

VIEW ON WEBSITE

“The go-to for a healthy-looking complexion, Flush Blush is our creamy formula that builds and blends in seconds so it’s impossible to overdo. Forget clown cheeks – this is your post-pilates glow.”

VIEW ON WEBSITE

“Veil the cheeks in radiant colour with the VIEVE Sunset Blush Balms, a liquid blush packed with skin-loving ingredients designed to help pamper the skin.”

THE 10 MINUTE MAKEOVER FOR BUSY MUM’S

by Sally Rowe | Feb 20, 2023 | Edition 10, Featured, Style

Mornings can be the most chaotic and super rushy part of the day, what with getting the kids up, fed, dressed and ready for school. All kicking and screaming. Also bags packed with numerous fillings such as packed lunch, PE kits and unfinished homework!
Already your zen has been compromised by the fact that you have cursed more times than a stuttering monk chanting his morning “ohm shanti” mantra!!
All that being said and you still have to find that minuscule window to make yourself even the slightest bit presentable and somehow manage to do your makeup in the process.

Here is a step-by-step simple yet flawless 10-minute makeup routine that will have you feeling fabulous and ready to take on the day with confidence.

THE 10 MIN MAKEOVER FOR BUSY MUM’S

NO.1

Start with a clean face and neck and prep with a spf tinted moisteriser like the Ultrasun SPF30+ face sun cream

…and mix a couple of drops of BB cream to give your skin a healthier glow.

I use Clarins BB Skin Detox Fluid.

NO.2

Next frame your face by applying your brows, brush upwards and pencil in the gaps, defining your arch by using a brow pencil with a built in spoolie brush for ease.
My absolute favourite is the Laura Mercia eye brow pencil.

Suggested: Eye Brow Pencil | Laura Mercier

NO.3

Suck in those cheeks and swipe a contour stick into the hollows of your cheeks, across the forehead and jawline and blend out using your fingers or a fluffy brush, creating definition and that sun kissed look. I also grab some of the product on my finger and dab onto my eyelids, as bronzer is more forgiving than an eyeshadow and it can blend effortlessly into the eye socket.
I just love the Mini Matte Bronzer by Milk Makeup.

NO.4

Add a pop of colour to your cheeks and lips using an easy to blend cream product and apply with your fingers for a quick and easy application.
Im loving the Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip & Cheek Glow, it gives such a youthful glow with its sheer texture and luminous finish.

NO.5

Last but not least make your eyes sparkle and look brighter by applying mascara for fuller looking lashes.
My go to is Benefit’s They’re Real Magnet Extreme Lengthening and Powerful Lifting Mascara. I find its super long lasting and makes my lashes look longer.

why it’s still important to wear an spf

by Sally Rowe | Oct 20, 2022 | Edition 7, Style, Trending

How important is it to still wear an SPF?

There goes the sun! But does that mean your SPFs are discarded till the sunshine reappears next year? Or you get chance of that winter vacation in the sunshine?

If you’re not wearing an spf everyday on your face, even when cloudy or you’re indoors then it’s time to start!

Wearing sunscreen is one of the best and easiest ways to protect your skin from harsh effects UVA and UVB rays.

But how does it go beyond benefitting your skin other than protecting from the sun and why it should not be reserved only for the summer months.

Here’s why…..

– [ ] Helps prevent premature aging

We all want to look younger right? Sun exposure is damaging and can cause visible wrinkles and fine lines and over exposure can even change skin texture. Try and keep your face and neck out of the direct sun.
Even those winter days those pesky rays can still come through clouds, rain, glass or snow so wearing an spf is an important preventative to be worn daily all year round.

– [ ] Reduces the appearance of sun spots

Sun damage causes hyperpigmentation which can look like large freckles. Wearing an spf is clinically proven to reduce photoaging by 24% so therefore I recommend wearing a high protection 50 spf. Apply regularly throughout the day. This will promote even skin tone.

– [ ] Prevents skin cancer

SPF’s play an important role in blocking UVB rays. Therefore It’s clear the best way to protect ourselves is wearing sunscreen, it reduces the risk of Melanoma by 50%. So slather it on. Prevention is better than cure! !

So Avoid peak sun
Seek shade, wear that hat! Cover up and wear your favourite SPF!!

I recommend my favourite go to for that all year protection:

How important is skin prep to improve makeup application?

How important is skin prep to improve makeup application?

If you want to avoid those skin moments where your foundation or concealer has faded or melted away to the point that looking in the mirror has become frustrating on an evening out or your just tired of keep touching up throughout the day then it’s worth thinking again about your skin prep and taking that additional effort with your skin routine.
Knowing your skin type is super important to your skin care routine so make sure you use the correct products to get the best results.
I find using an exfoliant once a week helps with removing dead skin and the appearance of pores and also brightening my skin thus helps your moisturisers to penetrate deeper, creating smoother hydrated skin. This one change alone in your skin care routine will help your makeup game.
There are many types of exfoliators on the market for example I love a more physical gritty scrub however this can be quite abrasive so you may want to opt for a chemical based formulas which break down dead skin cells and help them fall away. Sensitive skin types should be a little more careful when using chemical exfoliators.
Cleanse and tone and moisturise daily am and pm especially before your makeup routine. Toning will close pores and trap moisture for a smoother complexion.
Hydrating your skin will help foundation glide on effortlessly, buffs evenly and not sit on top of the skin looking flakey, giving your overall look staying power and a flawless effect.

My top picks for the best exfoliators:

Sensitive skin: https://www.paulaschoice.com/

Dry skin: https://www.murad.co.uk/product/aha-bha-exfoliating-cleanser/

All skin types: https://zoskinhealth.com/products/exfoliating-polish?variant=31618259779699
