The Week #52


The Week in Instagrams @nanawintour: *A nail update with my colour of the moment-Essie's Absolutely Shore *A face of the day featuring the usual suspects *What made its way into the April Favourites category *Tasting the rainbow with Pebbles, our local version of Smarties *The trusty iPad which served me well for blog reading whilst my MacBook was getting some TLC  *International Beauty offerings from far and wide.

Must-Watch of the Week: Jamie Oliver's transformation into Madonna by the Pixiwoo sisters is something that needs to be seen to be believed. If you want a laugh then give that a watch. On a more serious note, this video on Into The Gloss showing how to clean the face properly is a must-see. Treating the face carefully is constantly in the back of my mind now.

Product of the Week: Benefit's Most Easiest Nudes Ever eyeshadow kit. This is everything you need to create a simple, shimmery, neutral eye. The creaseless shadows last an incredibly long time, even without primer and all the hassle of rummaging through the makeup bag for multiple eyeshadows is taken away. 

Must-Read of the Week: I'm a bit of an eyeliner-phobe. I can apply it alright but anything technical like winged liner or liquid liner is a no go zone for me. Vivianna's post on Eyeliner Tips for Eyeliner Noobs may just have my problems solved. A felt tip liner and gel have been added to the wishlist, Bioderma on standby to fix any shaky handiwork. 

Added to the Wishlist: Believe it or not I only own one blush, Nars Orgasm and while I love it, it does get a bit boring to use every day. Stila Convertible Colour in Gerbera is something that's been on my beauty radar for a little while now. It's a cream product that can be used as both a blush or lip colour, one less thing to throw in the makeup bag. It looks great on a range of skintones too. Hannah and I have a shopping day on the cards this weekend and I'll be surprised if I can manage to walk away from Mecca without this..
