Bringing back the denim

I love that denim skirts have made a come back from the 90s. The hems are longer and they look cooler than ever.

I have rocked monochrome accessories and kept with the fave trend for this season festival.

Natural Collection Eye Brow Grooming and Instant Skin Glow


A lot of my avid blog followers will know I am a massive fan of Natural Collection cosmetics. 

Priced at only £1.99 per product, Natural Collection have become my ultimate unsung cosmetic hero's. All products are available to buy in most Boots stores and online at www.boots.com 

Over the past four months I have been testing and trailing their products and have created three signature looks. Fresh Face Forward , Get Glowing and Festival Make Up.

This summer, much to my excitement Natural Collection have launched three brand new brow and highlighter products to help achieve naturally defined brows and create an instant skin glow. So of course I had to be first to sample the goods and I love, love, love the results. 

Dont forget to watch my video tutorial below and when uploading your selfies to Instagram tag @naturalcollectioncosmetics 



Before testing the new products I created a soft, natural, summer look using the below products. More details on how to apply these products can be found in my previous blog posts (links above.)



Eye Brow Grooming

Look 1, barely there brows using the double ended brow pencil 


This product comes in two shades, medium brown and dark brow. Opt for the shade that is closest to your natural brow hair colour. 

Using light strokes pencil through the brow to shape, shade and colour. Always ensure your pencil is sharpened for ultimate precision. 
Following this use the definition brush to blend the colour, tame any strays and ensure all the hairs are brushing in the right direction.

Look 2, defined brows using the brow kit 


This is the perfect brow compact to achieve naturally defined brows. Define, fill and perfect your brows in 3 easy steps. 


Firstly using the angled brush and soft wax, line the perimeter of the brow to shape and define. 



Secondly using the other side of the brush apply the powder inside the brow, to dense and fill in any sparse areas. 


Thirdly use the comb to blend the colour and tame any stray hairs. 


Instant Skin Glow using Highlighter Sticks


Forget contouring, highlighting is the new in season makeup trend. These sticks are great at creating an instant skin glow and subtle shimmer. Available in three different shades each stick is great at creating a radiant glow. 

Gently apply the product to the cheek bone and dab in softly using your finger.



Look 1 Rose Glow

This shade is perfect for a soft dewy glow, this accentuates the cheeks using a blossoming pink cream shade. 



Look 2 Copper Glow

Use copper glow for a warm, golden, bronze look. The perfect shade for a summer sun kissed look. 



Look 3 Coral Glow

Use coral glow for a warm, shimmering complexion. A golden apricot shade that illuminates cheek bones.
