Makeup & Curls

Ok guys, you know those Instagram posts of people using Olaplex on clients and they have perfect silky hair afterwards? Its no joke. I went in to Empire Hair a few days ago to get an Olaplex treatment in my hair and I am so happy with it. As everyone knows I have unruly, frizzy, curly hair that has seen way too much heat and colouring in my 22 years on this planet. I got the Olaplex treatment done and its actually so repaired and healthy now. Also can I just say that the new salon on Patrick's street is absolutely gorgeous - it's an official Olaplex salon 😍 I got a two step Olaplex treatment and it was so relaxing I almost fell asleep! The first step also involves your hair being wrapped in a warm towel which is so lovely. When the treatment was finished Lynn gave me the most amazing cut and blowdry as you can see from the pictures. My hair has genuinely never felt this soft in years and its so smooth and replenished.

Hi guys! I put together a detailed step by step picture tutorial on how I do my teal eyeshadow. I usually pair it with a pinky nude lip, rose toned blusher, and sometimes fake freckles. I was out in the sun lately though and now I have freckles of my own!

You probably don't need this many at all but this is how I like to get depth to a look. I also use more or less depending on the day but these are pretty much it.

Hi everyone and happy new year! Lets look beyond the fact that I haven't made a blog post in 3 months can we please? Funnily enough, final year in college requires work - so I have spent my last 12 weeks trying to learn all about sand, waves, and flip-flops.... So apart from learning about electronics, I have learned a lot about makeup and makeup products in the last year. I thought I would share a small few of my favourite products and how I use them to their full potential or ways that I find work anyway. MAC - Prep and Prime Fix + Setting Spray This is such a versatile product. I use it so many ways and I can't do my makeup without it. Recently my skin has gotten a bit dry with the cold, Winter weather, so I love to use it as a primer to my foundation. I like to spray it in half pumps on my face. I find this gives more control over how it disperses and prevents actual droplets of the product forming on my face. If I prime using another product, I like to spray my
