The truth is, I'm just tired.

Always busy, therefore, always tired but how to beat puffy, fatigued eyes and look fresh as a daisy?
On my recent quest to find a soothing eye cream and avoid looking half asleep, I was introduced to Ole Henriksen Truth Is In The Eyes, a clear gel concentrate with the most gentle peeling action to assist anti-fatigue around the fragile eye area, with ingredients that claim to boost collagen production plus 'brighten, lighten and tighten',   I was not going to miss this trick.

I have been patting a minute amount around my eyes both day and night, a much smaller amount than is pictured (I got a little carried away but at least you can see the consistency).  A little goes a long way and for £57 for a 21g tube, rightly so!
The results haven't been taking my breath away...c'mon, what could visibly restore years of late nights though not all alcohol induced, lack of sleep and long working hours! What I am pleased to tell you is I now wake up in the morning without looking like someone has inflated my eye contours but instead performed a calming, ceremonious eye massage.
This products is most definitely becoming my best beauty companion, a few extra hours sleep in a tube.

Rockin' them nails and bling!

Ok, so I wouldn't usually plaster my nails in something quite so bling but at a recent press event I thought, 'Why not?'
This is Nail Rock on my thumb and it did get the thumbs up.  These designer nail wraps are speedy to apply once you've prepped your nails by removing nail polish, shaping the edges and buffing the surface to reduce the chances of lumps and bumps. After selecting the correct size, place onto nail, blast some heat directly for a few seconds, then manipulate onto the nail plate and trim edges.  Blingo!  You have super fast designs in seconds.
Mine were applied on Wednesday by the sought after nail technician, Zoe Pocock, since then I've worked, shopped, showered, bathed, washed dishes, typed and they have remained in tact till today with only slight wear and tear to the tip, impressive, I think so too.  I am now keen to try a tamer style like the black and purple leopard print....!

Pixi Best Picks!

If you're not familiar with Pixi then now might be the time to stop and take note.  It's a pretty looking brand encapsulating girly essentials from lip glosses to bronzers. Ah, the bronzers!  Pixi have a new bronzing palette for Spring but I just cannot stop using their past season Pixi Lumi Lux Bronze Palette which beautifies many skin tones.  The soft pink, bronzed and beigy fairies create contours and highlights as well as flush of colour onto cheeks, there most versatile product I'm sure you'd agree.
The soft, waterproof eye pencil pictured is Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen in Black Tulip, a smouldering midnight blue/purple, which I've been using to finish off smoky eyes by applying along the water line or to add depth to the socket line.  It's a superb alternative to black especially if you're fair or bored of black.
Pixi is now available in Boots.
