I love having black hair.

I don’t know why but with my colouring and having blue eyes, black hair doesn’t look bad on me at all. I have had to adapt my makeup styles though to accompany such a colour change and tried out new products and colours from my normal routine. As I was feeling inspired by this radial change, I thought I would do a post on a look I love to show you. (If reading isn’t your thing, you can watch it above)

I have known of Bare Minerals for a long time now but never really ventured to try out their products. I have heard plenty of good things about them so I knew it was time to go ‘Bare’ and try their range.

Complexion rescue is their latest Creme foundation gel to hit the market and I have been using it ever since. Suede(04) is the shade I have been trying and I love the colour and feel of this product. It’s uber easy to apply (with fingers or brush) and it makes my face and complexion look fresh, non-shiny and clear. If you like a natural look, this product is definitely for you.
Available in a nifty size for your makeup bag, this creme gel is key to any beauty or makeup lover who loves looking naturally their best. I love any products that have quirky packing and Soap & Glory are very good at showing off their product in cutely wrapped boxes.

I don’t do eye liner anymore so it was nice to experience with this Supercat Fat product during filming this clip. With a fat nip and one side flat, it’s an easy pen to use but it did take me a few attempts to get it looking ok (I’m out of practise). If you do make a mistake it’s easy to amend and it looks lovely one! I have tried lots of Essence’s product before so I knew this brown, shimmer eyeshadow would look lovely with my complexion. It’s a really easy eye shadow to use on and feels really soft when you are wearing it.As well as trying their complexion cream, I am also wearing Bare Minerals’ lipstick in this cool purple shade. I think semi dark lips look fab with black hair and it really makes my blue eyes pop too. It’s a really soft and smooth lippy to wear for everyday and is great shade for day to night celebrations. So do you like this look?
