Marilyn Monroe Inspired

After writing my Marilyn Monroe MAC post, I was totally inspired to have a play with my makeup.

The next evening was Date Night for Graeme and I as it was his Birthday. We were going out for dinner, just the two of us, so it was the perfect opportunity to glam up a little.

I know I’m not a patch on Marilyn but this is the best I could do!......

Famous Cosmetics Re-Launch

I was a fan of Famous by Sue Moxley, I loved the baked bronzers and the highly pigmented eyeshadows, so I was disappointed when I recently saw the stand in my local Superdrug very bare and everything half price. To me this screamed ‘Discontinued’.

So I was very excited to find out they had actually re-launched the brand as Famous Cosmetics  with gorgeous new packaging, which is so glam, yet sturdy, think TOWIE, bling and animal print. Celebrity inspired product names and fabulous new additions to the line.

Here are a few of my favourite products in the range.....

First Date Blush in Penelope - £4.99

This blush is a beautiful subtle flush of colour, a very soft, natural shade of pink. I love the strap line ‘Get that sexy demour first date blush’. The colour payoff is fantastic, one swipe of this blush on the apple of your cheeks looks so beautiful and natural.

Shining Star Shimmer brick in Rihanna Shimmer - £6.49

I love a highlighter and a healthy glow, so this shimmer brick is perfect. It’s made up of 5 colours, I swirl my angled blush brush over all the shades and apply a light layer over the First Date Blush for a stunning rose gold sheen on my cheeks.

High Five EyeShadow in After Hours - £4.99

This palette consists of 5 fabulously pigmented grey, black and silver shadows. All you need for the perfect Kim Kardashian smokey eye.  The shadows consist of three shimmering shades and two matte shades, including a matte black, perfect for lining the lashes.

I'm currently running a Giveaway  including The Zebera Complete palette and a Spot Light Lipgloss.
