I am not going to lie, they are bloody expensive!). So, there you go, my Rae Morris brushes first impressions!

My Made By Mary Necklaces Review
Hello there! I am sure that if you live in Salt Lake City or follow fashion bloggers from Utah, you will have heard of Made By Mary. MBM is a small business that makes handmade jewellery and it is located in Draper, Utah. The majority of jewellery they make is necklaces, but they also make bracelets and rings. Their style is minimal jewellery, that you can layer apart from wearing them alone. They offer many customisation options. You can personalise most of their pieces by engraving important dates, names, coordinates, symbols and initials that are meaningful to you. I could not resist their beautiful pieces, so I ordered some and…
My Brow Technique for Natural Brows
As a nineties kid, I grew up in the small, thin eyebrow trend. Luckily, I didn’t pluck my whole eyebrows off, however, I still wish I had been a little more “frugal”! Yes, let’s put it that way, haha! I like my eyebrows, but there are a few points where they are more sparse. There is not a huge need to fill them in, but I do like them more when I give them the proper attention. However, filling them in with a pencil takes a bit of time if you want to make them look natural. So, what do you do when you are in a hurry and still…

Today I will tell you how I spend time commuting and some tips and ideas you mind find useful. What I do I had an idea: why not improve my listening…
Pocket Beauty
You certainly know my love for miniatures and travel size products! I love the fact that you can take them anywhere and fit them all in a small makeup bag. Here are some of my favourite mini makeup products that can fit everywhere. Cheers to pocket beauty! Base Becca First Light Priming Filter. Years ago I had seen a YouTuber apply a purple hued primer by Etude House, and I thought it was such a clever idea for brightening the skin of your face.

The Colourful Mascaras Edit
With so many colourful eyeshadows, various textures and formulas, we often forget how to spice up our makeup in well known but forgotten ways. Using colourful mascaras is not only an easy and quick way, but also an original one. We have been so used to trying various tones of eyeshadows and lipsticks, that we have forgotten the colours in other makeup products such as mascaras and eyeliners. But why are they a fab way to add colour to your makeup? Swiftness The 3-minute makeup challenge for me consists of applying my concealer in the areas I need it and then mascara. Why not use a colourful one? Within…
My Creations : Orange flowers necklace
I love making jewellery and one of my favourite and easiest ways is to use modelling clay. Today I present you my handmade necklace that I made quite a while ago. I like using polymer clay because you can literally give it any shape, mix colours and give different textures to your pieces. My theme is usually nature, and this necklace is my handmade orange flowers necklace. As much as I love metals, gems and precious stones, I do not “discriminate” against materials cheaper for jewellery. You see, every piece has a different style, it is a different piece of art and you can wear each in different occasions or…
