Hey, i just wanted to let you all know....

on April 24th this year, Me, my mum, sister and godmother will be taking part in the 10k “celebrity” Sunwalk in Southampton, We will be power walking our way around town with thousands of others in our bra’s to raise money for a very worthy cause.

If you sponsor us, your money will help the thousands of people who’s lives each year are affected by breast cancer. So, if it's something that you feel is worthwhile, please give generously...

However, if you need further incentive, please take note of all of the points below!! • We are normally allergic to exercise, therefore not extremely fit!! • We are forbidden from stopping off in pubs along the way to rehydrate!! and • We will be walking in a very fetching bra decorated blue peter style!!! So come on, we know this isn't the best time to be asking people to donate money but, if you can spare any for this very worthy cause, we’d be really grateful. So please sponsor us now!

Anything you could give would be brilliant, as this is a charity very close to my heart and the cause is great! To donate pleas visit... www.walkthewalkfundraising.org/watermelons

thank you x

one eye only...

Ok, so i was half way doing a sparkly purple look, and my sister is rushing me out the house to go food shopping. so YES, im going out with one side of my face done! i'll count the funny looks i get!

Books im loving right now...

So i got a parcel in the post the other day (parcels are always brilliant) and it was 3 books i ordered off of amazon; Francois Nars - Makeup your mind £17.83, Bobbi Brown - Makeup Manual £12.18 and Linda Mason - Eye Candy £5.24.

My favourite of all 3 is definetly the Bobbi Brown Make-up manual, because it has so many important parts to it from Skin care, actual application and getting into the idustry. It's brilliant that she write about all aspects of the job and not just the application. Although i know i want to go into television and film, she has opened my eyes to other areas. i think its great how she talks about all the different areas as anybody unsure will get some kind of idea. She also talks about how to break into the industry and advice on how to build a portfolio and professional kit.

Eye Candy - Linda Masons book is brilliant for ideas for use of colour. before getting this book i was worried about pairing certain colours etc but she gives examples for almost every possible look from Funky to flirtatious.

If you own alot of Nars products then Make-up Your Mind is the book for you as it contains looooads of looks using all the products. It gives a before and after shot with a accitate page inbetween sectioning out where he placed the products, if you dont get what i mean and or havent already checked it out Pixiwoo/Fashionfacetv made a video/blog post about useful books for make-up artists and this one is on there along with a looad of other fabulous make-up books! Also gives you a professional opinion!

I however dont own any Nars make-up products cause right now i have to back do with mostly drugstore, so all i can do is imitate the looks but i still love it as some of the looks are amazing! I copied a look from there recently and will post pictures, but right now my mum has gone on holiday and taken the camera lead with her! boooo.

Anyways i hope this was useful and i extremerly recommend getting these books they are brilliant! Blog again soon, dont forget to follow :) ciao xo

first EVER post eeek :)

Hey guys and girls, i thought i would make a blog just to get my name and work out there in preperation.

I am 16 years old and currently studying Law, Psychology, sociology and Communication & culture at a local college, a slightly weird choice considering the name of my blog. So, since being at college i have realised i have the power to do what i really want to do. Therefore i have recently enrolled in another local college studying part-time Make-up for Fashion. Make-up has always been a massive passion of mine but i never thought it was a realistic career choice hense studying Law. However now more then ever i am determined to make it as a make-up artist. I know that it is a hard industry to get into, but you only get out of life what you put in and im so ready to work for this, you have no idea.

Anyways, so if you feel like clicking FOLLOW go ahead, it would make my day. I am considering starting YouTube videos so look out for me on there. I was very unsure about writing this blog out of thought of what people might say, but what the heck, you HAVE to put yourself out there. Thank you very much for reading and wish me luck for my journey ahead! Tooooodles :) xo
