“I was never allowed to wear make-up as a child or young teenager, so only really discovered the joys of make-up at the age of 16 or 17 and I’ve enjoyed it ever since! While I love to wear make-up for work and special occasions, I also really like having make-up free days wearing just a little tinted moisturiser and lip balm. It’s all about balance.
I love art, so I view make-up as similar to creating a drawing on a blank canvas. I really enjoy contouring and experimenting with different shades and colours. Make-up should enhance our own features, rather than completely hide them. So I try to start lightly and build up coverage and colours as I need them. Also, I love red lipstick to feel extra glamorous or if I haven’t had time to do my eye make-up!
Day-to-day I use a tinted moisturiser, mascara, a bit of blusher and lip balm if I’m not working and just shopping or meeting friends. For work and nights out, I love smokey eyes, black eyeliner and a flattering, shimmery blusher like Nars Orgasm.
I love highlighters, MAC Soft and Gentle is one of my favourites, mineral foundations and dark purple mascara to make my brown eyes pop! I have more than enough make-up at the moment but I always keep an eye out for exciting new brands or products. I love trying out new mascaras and lip glosses, they’re my weakness!”
