Laser for Pigmentation Removal – Before and After

It’s been three weeks since my second laser treatment and it’s about time I shared my before and after pics with you. For those of you wondering what on earth I’m going on about, you can read about my first experience at the laser clinic here.  The second treatment was definitely more painful than the first, and I don’t mean to scare people...

Vintage Style Wedding Makeup

As it’s coming into Wedding Season (actually it’s probably already in full swing) I thought you might enjoy a Bridal Makeup tutorial. This is the kind of look that I get asked for a lot, it’s soft and girly with just enough definition to get picked up in flash photography. I will probably do another makeup look using warmer tones soon, for those of...

GreenSmoke -How to Rock a Sexy Green Smokey Eye!

This was look was a total fluke. I seriously had no idea what on earth I was going to do and looked to my less loved green eyeshadow palette for inspiration. It almost turned into a disaster with the addition of a bright green pigment, but with the words of the cool, calm and collected Tim Gunn ringing in my ears, I made it work! I’m actually really happy with...

How To Apply Perfect Eyeliner Every Time

This video has been a long time coming, I’ve always wanted to make an eyeliner tutorial but have held off until my camera and lighting set up were perfect. I don’t think there’s any point in making a tutorial about eyeliner without being  able to show clearly exactly what’s going on. This is also my third attempt at making it, my previous...

May Monthly Round-up – What Did You Miss?

I must admit, I’ve fallen off the wagon a bit when it comes to updating this blog, so I thought it would be a good idea to round up all of all of my activity from the month of May, just in case you missed anything. The YouTube subscription module has been notoriously buggy lately with a few of my subscribers reporting that some of my recent videos haven’t...

My Easy Everyday Makeup Routine

My Easy Everyday Makeup Routine

I never really thought that I had an “everyday” makeup routine, I like to think I’m a little less predictable than that, plus I like to give all of products in my collection a turn in the spotlight. It seems unfair to the rest of my makeup if I continually use the same 10 products over and over. Is that weird? Yes probably….. But as I was in...

Get Ready With Me! Dinner and Drinks!

Get ready with me video’s have become my favorite to watch recently, there’s something about seeing the complete transformation that really makes me feel like I’m friends with the person and I literally am getting ready with them! (is that sad? Perhaps….oh well) This is my second “Get Ready With Me” video and this time I’m...

Beauty Icon #5 – Sophia Loren Makeup Tutorial

After putting this off for a week I finally made a Sophia Loren Tutorial, and it was a bit of a nightmare to create. After attempting to do the liner on my right eye first, off camera, and failing, I realised that my eye shape is completely different to Sophia’s, making it next to impossible to get the same extremely lifted effect. *sigh* I persevered and...

Karlie Kloss Met Gala Makeup Tutorial

While there were some er, “questionable” getup’s at the Met Gala during the week, there were also some absolutely stunning looks and Karlie Kloss did it for me in the makeup stakes. Other favorites for me on the night were Cara Delevigne (she can do no wrong as far as I’m  concerned), Rooney Mara and Lena Dunham. I know a lot of people...

Beauty Icon #5 – Twiggy 60′s Makeup

I have to be honest with you, this is not the first time I’ve recorded a Twiggy tutorial, in fact it’s not even the second time. That’s right folks, this is my third attempt at recreating Twiggy’s iconic 60′s makeup look. I could never quite put my finger on why I’ve never been happy with previous efforts, but upon finishing this...

Laser Treatment For Pigmentation – My Experience

Some of you might know already that last week I had laser treatment done to remove some of the pigmentation from my face. Being an Irish woman, with stereotypical Irish skin it’s fair to say my skin has not fared too well with the harsh Australian sun. I have had freckles just about all my life, most of the pigmentation has come from when I was a child, but...

Beauty Icons – Marilyn Monroe Makeup Tutorial

Hello my lovely! First I must say a massive thank you to everyone that requested this look, and there were a lot of you! I had so much fun making this video, and I even wore the makeup out that night( although I did adjust the lips to a more normal shape and took off the wig!) I was actually quite anxious about making this tutorial, because Marilyn’s has got to...

Beauty Icon – Grace Kelly Inspired Makeup

I can’t believe I’m making the third part of this series already, time is absolutely flying by! In today’s video I am recreating the inimitable Grace Kelly’s makeup. I decided to base this look off of her character Lisa Fremont in Alfred Hitchcock’s film Rear Window, I just think her whole look in that movie is the epitome of Grace...
