Unwrap the new inner you this year 2012

 With these long winter months and heating keeping us nice and warm, our skin is our biggest organ that holds our beautiful selves together! Distressing our skin from one temperature to another we should give back some thanks by starting this year with a fresh approach.

Here are some handy tips and advice to get you started on bringing out that inner glow.

Tip 1 - Eat healthily. Diet is an absolute essential to healthier looking skin, eat a diet that is rich in anti oxidants, packed with fresh fruit and green vegetables and plenty of fresh water.

Tip 2 - Cleanse, tone and moisturise - By not having a regular 3 step routine a dullness in complexion can occur and pores can become clogged.

Cleanse: to make sure your make up is taken off correctly to avoid a build up of impurities and a break out.

Tone: to restore your skins natural PH level of 5.5

Moisturise: Always moisturise your skin, even the most oiliest of skins need to be moisturised to protect from all the elements (cold, sun protection, UV and Wind)

Tip 3 - Sleep is an essential for beautiful skin, cell renewal turn over is higher at night while we are resting, your routine will help you relax and unwind before you hop into bed for a touch of beauty sleep.

Christmas window display at GlamR

 All started with a Sunday in the shop Me, Emma,  Rian and lots and lots of glitter and Polystyrene Reindeers Snow flakes and stars, with so much happy smiles, untill the Reindeers antlers kept on braking and glued the snow flakes together Ahhhhh, we were all covered in glitter, not the best look to have. So we dropped the glitter and went to the winelodge for a large glass of  wine and some lunch, when we went back hoping the Reindeers where dry, but oh NO!!

So we gave up on the glitter and started to dress the tree,

which was alot easier !!!!!

But it was all worth it we had so much fun,

and got in to the christmas spirit,

I got into the spirit a bit to much with to much wine.

These pictures show the finished results, which we have had some lovely feedback from our clients, and even the passing by dogs seem to be enjoying watching our train going round and round.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

  

Bare minerals ...AND AWAY WE GLOW

One of our favourite sets so far!

This 9 peice set And away we glow is absolutley fantastic value for money. We were all soooo excited when these new kits arrived in at the shop i couldnt wait to open it. Very fancy red packaging sweet for xmas.

Me needing some serious making over.

First i perfected my skin with bareminerals foundation original ( not included in set)
then i got to start playing :) eeeek

Prime time primer shadow in dove grey -pea sized amount ideal for both lid, lightly blended a small amount all over each my lid to create base and prolong the shadow.

Eye colour in swanky - Love the name of this shadow! Frosty white with pink and gold flecks so shimmery almost looks like water on the eye as it catches the light, perfect for those christmas nights out under the twinkly fairy lights, I used the shadow brush included and gently placed a small amount over and blended out,  Better to have small amount on brush and build it up.

Round the clock water proof eyeliner black - Super soft and gentle on the eyes yet easy to apply,  waterproof - this isnt going anywhere! tip work quickly when blending tends to set fairly quick but sets the eyes off amazingly.

Luxury blush - gives a real fresh natural dewy glow apply with contour blush brush included, feels as soft as silk on my cheeks, makes me look and feel like im glowing from within.

Turn on multi tasking highlighter - I applied this to the top of my cheek bones and lightly on the top of my brow bone so that when the light catches me i look healthy and dewy :)

Flawless Definition mascara- does exactly what it sais on the label! wand is perfect for really getting in there and adding length and defining your lovely lashes

Pretty Amazing lip gloss in flair - Wow this is PRETTY AMAZING gives the colour pigments of a lip colour but the shine of a gloss. i was expecting this to be a little sticky if im honest but its so sheer and comfortable to wear doesnt get on my teeth either which i was pleased about  : D - lip stick free smile! woo

AND HERE IS MY TA DA MOMENT!
