How do I make my eye makeup last longer!

Hi there I am Andrew James and I post about hair, makeup and skincare over at beautyandtheboy.com. I am guest posting today for Beauty Queen UK. I thought it would be a good idea to post about one of the questions I get asked a lot social media, "How do I make my eye makeup last longer?" Personally I would say by using primers or bases. Eye Primers work as a magnet for eye shadow, some will even out the surface and colour of the lid some extend the wear of eye shadows and some just make the eye shadows more vibrant. I’ve chosen a few products I think you will like. The products range from drug store all the way up to luxury, including different textures for all skin types so there is a good mix for everyone.

Firstly, we have an old makeup trick that has been used by makeup artists for years. The “secret" is to just use some plain old pressed powder after you've applied your foundation. Applying powder to the eye will give it a good base to start working on that way your eye shadows will go on smoothly and blend evenly. As you can see above, I picked Collection Cosmetics Lasting Perfection Powder as it’s a long lasting, finely milled powder, a great pick from the drug store

Here we have some products that will either give you a smooth base or make your eye makeup last much longer, I put these products together because you don't want a coloured base so these are all either clear or nude this way you won't see them when you apply eye shadow on top. On the far left is the Illamasqua Sealing Gel which on its own doesn't do much, although when mixed that's when the magic happens sometimes I find myself mixing this with eyeliners, eyeshadows etc. This will make sure your eye makeup won't crease and will be particularly good for those of you with oily lids. Next we have the NARS Pro Prime and Laura Mercier Eye Canvas which both contain starch to help control oiliness on the lids which causes the creasing of your eye makeup. NYX Jumbo pencil works better for those with normal/dry skin as it tends to crease a bit on oily lids. I find the NYX Jumbo Pencils work best when set with eye shadow.

The above products are for those of you who want a bit of colour on your lid but want the eye shadow to last. I often find myself using coloured bases a lot, I’ll usually put down one of these then use a powder to blend over the top and work from there. I would say the key to good long lasting makeup is using what works for your skin type and layering products on top of each other that way they don’t wear away as easily.

My favourite coloured bases have to be the OCC Cream Colour Concentrate which is basically a cream eye shadow that sets down and dries which is a god send for oily lids. These blend really well too if you just want to use this on the lid as an eye shadow without powder. A more affordable version of the Cream Colour Concentrate is the Maybelline Colour Tattoo which works in the same way although it’s a bit drier. The last 2 products are more for your normal/combo eyelids as the Chanel Illusion D'ombre. These set and it looks absolutely beautiful although I’ve found they don’t tend last as long with oily lids. CKone Eyeshadow Bases are great for a wash of colour before doing a smokey eye they work the same as the others but this one has a more grungy tone that then others

Makeup Wishlist

Over the weekend I was sat browsing the interweb as you do, debating what I need to spend my Christmas Vouchers on, yes I still have them. With vouchers for New Look, Debenhams, House of Fraser and Next.

There are so many dresses and tops that I want to buy right now, but I made a promise to myself not to do so until I had cleared out the wardrobe, same with shoes and boots, so that leaves Makeup, for which there is always room for more. Rather than spending my vouchers online, I have instead complied a wishlist of items I want to buy and here it is:

I have become a tad obsessed with the Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Range and whilst I have one of the lipsticks, I absolutely adore this Blusher palette which retails for £35. Staying with Urban Decay, I have been hankering after this Naked Skin Illuminating Beauty Balm which has SPF 20 ever since I swatched it. It is said to hydrate and prime, almost like a multi-use product and costs just £24.

You can never have too many lipsticks as far as I am concerned and there are two that I currently have my eye on. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire in shade Berry Beret, I just love how these lipsticks are designed to look and match one of my favourite bottles of perfume. Then who doesnt want a bit of Tom Ford and his boys? I have a list as long as my arm when it comes to these beauties, especially in shade Luciano. What I love about Tom Ford is the sleek chic design.

Staying with the theme of lips, Benefit Chachabalm Lip Hydrator (£14.50) and is said to not only add a tint to the lips but is also super hydrating, which at this time of year we ll need.

YSL are another brand I also love, mainly their lipsticks and I am a big fan of YSL Touche Éclat, but there are two other products that I am intrigued by and want to try for myself, more so because they have got mixed reviews. The first is Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Foundation (£32.50) and then the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Blur Primer (£30). 

As a Mascara fiend, again a product you can never have too much of, I have been wanting to purchase a full sized Lancôme Hypnôse Drama since having a sample size which had dried out before I had time to use it, but instead of throwing it away, I washed the brush and used it with my Benefit Mascara and loved the brush.


The final item on my list is from the fabulous Laura Geller, whom I have been lucky enough to meet and it is the Easy Cover Up Concealer Crayon which caught my attention because it is infused with super antioxidant Italian Tomato Extract to protect, hydrate and help firm skin and Hyaluronic Filling Spheres hydrate skin and fill in fine lines for more youthful look! How amazing and all for £18.

Have you got any products on your wishlist currently?

Benefit and Starbucks February Collaboration plus FREEBIE

Barely able to contain my excitement that Starbucks have got some new flavours to try (I miss the honey and almond hot chocolate already) with Pistachio and Rose Mocha or a Burnt Caramel Latte, they then add to it by teaming up with Benefit for the whole of February!

Purrfect Box for Cats - February 2016

The big pink cat box arrived with some excitement for my boys this morning. The Purrfect box** of which we have had a few now, is a UK subscription service which allows you to treat your cat, or your dog (Pawsome Box)and each month you will receive each month treats, toys, accessories, hygiene and personal care products customized and based on the cat's age, size, weight, fur type and preferences. Anyone who reads my blog or follows me on Instagram will know what a big part my three cats play in my life, Hector even has his own Instagram!

Each month has a different theme so you get different goodies each month. The cost is £19.50 per month or £15.50 if you subscribe yearly and this was what was in the box.  

The box was again packed to the top and as soon as I ripped the lid off, as you can see my boys wasted no time inspecting the contents.  There was a bit of a fight over a few of the toys, but that was soon sorted out and their attention was diverted with treats.

First up there is some Cat Caviar by Schulze. Cat Caviar is a delicious treat for your cat, that you can either sprinkle over your cat's usual food to enhance the taste and diversify, or you can just give it to him as a reward when deserved. Then we have Cat Munchies in Fish flavour.  These treats are cereal, gluten and wheat free, made from 100% natural quality fish fillet, is naturally Low in fat and calories and easily digestible.  Both have been received with glee and I have no doubt they will be consumed within no time at all.

Then come the toys.  This time we have three toys and you would assume three cats and three toys would make for an easy dividing up of the assets right? No... They all wanted the Dolphin. There is very little information on this Dolphin Plush, but it is handmade and does contain catnip, it is obviously quite strong as all three cats wanted to claim it as their own.  This is followed by A Trixie Cat toy.  Trixie is a brand I am really familiar with and we have a lot of Trixie cat toys already.  This one is a bird of sorts with a fluffy tail which catches their attention as they chase it around the floor.  The final toy is from a company called Pet Brands and it is a crocheted ball with a bell on the end, bright yellow in colour and not too noisy, thankfully!

The final two items in the box are useful ones for cat owners.  The first is deodorising cat litter crystals and these are to be sprinkled on the top of litter to mask the odour that they omit.  The second is from Wolf and Tiger and it is a cat brush, which I had been meaning to purchase as the one I had seems to have grown a pair of legs and walked away.  All three of my boys absolutely love being groomed, so I know they are going to love this brush.

So there you have the February Purrfect Box and as I have said before, it is a real treat for my boys to get and as soon as they see the box they know exactly what it is and cannot wait for me to rip it open. If you have a friend who has cats, then this would make a fantastic present!

Valentines Day with Lush Cosmetics 2016

Do you want to buy your other half something more exciting than flowers and chocolate (actually still get those) for Valentines Day? Well now is the time to get in the mood for love with this new collection of limited edition Lush treats and a Valentines collection is always one not to be missed.  

There are so many products to choose from this year, whether it is a single item or a gift package, that walking into Lush makes me want to grab everything and shove them into my basket, but instead I have been quite restrained. However I did manage to have the chance to play with and test a lot of products whilst wandering about and here are some of my favourites:

Top right we have Roses all the way soap which smells amazing! When I washed my hands with it in store, I was expecting it to look as though I had had one massive accident with blood red water, but instead it turns into a creamy lather which definitely made me look twice, possibly in confusion, but what is amazing is the scent.  If you love the smell of rose, in particular Turkish Rose which is both delicate but fresh scented, then this is one for you.

Unicorn Horn is a well loved Bubble Bar and even now I am still obsessed with all of the magical colours.  This is one of my favourite bubble bars because of the scent and its ability to make me feel instantly relaxed.  Using Lavender and Neroli is always going to get the thumbs up from me, but make it bright and pretty and mention the word 'Unicorn' and what is not to love?  This is one of those bubble bars that you can cut in half, or be like me and chuck the whole lot into the water crumbled up for lots of bubbles.

Cuteness alert with the Ladybird Bubble Bar which is new to Lush and is technically for Mother's Day but its far too cute not to want for Valentines Day. This one is a beautiful bright red and purple spotted being which when crumbled into the water uses both Geranium and Peppermint to relax the mind but uplift the soul, so if you are having one of those 'everything has gone wrong days' and the stress levels have hit the roof, then Ladybug is the perfect antidote to clam you now, chill you out and make you smile - it creates loads and loads of bubbles and turns your bath water a lovely shade of red!

Finally another newbie for Lush with the Lover Lamp Bath Bomb. It smells like a chocolate orange and uses Fair Trade Vanilla Absolute and Brazillian Orange Oil and once you chuck it in the bath and it begins to whizz around, slowly melting away, the oils when they hit the steam are just magical. The scent is amazing and it leaves your skin smelling good enough lick, never mind eat and the scent stays with you pretty much all day.

If those haven't really tickled your fancy or you think your wife/girlfriend/best friend or even the man in your life deserve a little something more, then there are of course the gift packages and again, they are just amazing and there is something for every budget.

In your Dreams is just under £10 and inside are two amazing products. Unicorn Horn which i've mentioned above and Tisty Toasty Bubble bar which is based on a medieval love potion. Studded with seven real rosebuds, it is scented with a captivating combination of floral orris root powder, rose, and lemon and it is just divine.

Two Hearts is again a total bargain at just £13.95 and it contains trio of bathtime treats with Tisty Toasty as mentioned above, Lover Lamp which again ive mentioned above and Sex Bomb bath bomb which uses a fragrant blend of jasmine, ylang ylang and clary sage will soon have you relaxed and feeling in the mood... Jasmine is an ancient aphrodisiac, used as a sensual perfume in India for centuries and in aromatherapy to ease stress and anxiety. Clary sage clears the mind, while ylang ylang is renowned for soothing worries.

The final package is Lots of Love and it costs £27.95 and is just brilliant. Inside this box are six amazing products which are - Tisty Toasty, Lover Lamp, Sex Bomb and Unicorn Horn all of which are mentioned so far.  The final two are ones I also adore and the first is French Kiss Bubble Bar which when crumbled under running water creates a paradisaical bath full of the lavender and rosemary scents of Southern France. Relax as your troubles bubble away and extra virgin coconut oils softens your skin. Finally is Rose Jam Bubbleroon which is just incredible. Pep up your spirits in a bath filled with Rose Jam: lemon, rose and geranium oil will help perk you up, while Fair Trade cocoa and shea butter leave you feeling gorgeous. You’ll end up feeling as cheered as though you'd been been given a bunch of flowers. Rose oil and rose absolute give a double dose of rosiness, helping to clear the mind and boost your mood.

This is just an insight into some of the products available from Lush and there are many more to look at - Prince Charming Shower Gel, Heart throb Bubbleroon and Love Spell Massage Bar to name just a few!

Have you gone to Lush for a Valentines Gift? 

Barbour New Fragrance Range

The iconic brand Barbour, who are perhaps better known for their wax jackets, motorcycle heritage and love of the British Countryside, have recently launched a fragrance** for him and for her in Selfridges.

Designed in a beautifully etched bottle which features the iconic checked design, the fragrances are just stunning. The rounded bottle which has a more feminine touch for the ladies and the rather square and chunky bottle for the man.

Barbour for her brings into the use the trend of rose gold with a chunky lid and lettering which add a touch of class to the already beautiful bottle. The scent, as you might expect is divine and perfect for those of you who like a fragrance which encompasses both floral and fruity notes. Opening with fresh, sparkling fruity notes of red currants, contrasted by spicy pink pepper which are the first things you notice upon spritizing, it settles down on the skin to reveal an elegant floral blend of rose, jasmine and blush peony are complimented by notes of musk and sweet vanilla, which are not overpowering but instead work with the other notes to make what is a fragrance perfect for spring and indeed the summer. 

Once on the skin, it has an amazing lastability, one spritz in the morning when I am getting ready and I can still smell the perfume at lunch time, right through the afternoon, only needing to re-apply if I am going out or have an event in the evening afterwards, even then, it is more for my own paranoia than need.

Barbour for him, has been created for a man who loves spending time in the British countryside. Using a warm layer of frosted violet leaves and cinnamon which are cast on a bed of vetiver, sandalwood and musk, while a burst of grapefruit and hint of black peppercorn enliven this captivating blend makes for a truly stunning fragrance which has real longevity when wearing. 

The mister is about to do a review on his blog, so if this is a fragrance you are thinking of purchasing, then a male view point is well worth waiting for. For me, I really like it and it is a scent that lingers on the skin enough so that when you are walking down the street, you leave a trail behind you.

Both fragrances are available at Selfridges and are priced from £40. Perfect if you haven't yet got that love of your life a gift for Valentines!

Wedding Outfit Tips

We all like weddings. They are days that create great memories and fantastic photos. Most people love the opportunity to dress up.

Going out shopping for a wedding outfit is always fun and interesting. Often you end up trying on clothes you would not otherwise consider buying. As a result, you usually gain some extra insight into what clothes look great on you. It is a chance to experiment and shake things up a bit. A wedding forces you not to be lazy and just carry on buying the same style of clothes you always do.

Buy wisely

Naturally, you want to look your best, which means buying good quality clothes, which are expensive. If you are invited to several weddings in one year, being able to afford a complete new outfit for each of them can be impossible.

Fortunately, there is a lot you can do to get around this problem. If you follow my tips, you can buy a good outfit that you can adapt and update throughout the year. That way you get a new look for each wedding without having to pay for a complete outfit each time.

Buy for both weddings in one shopping trip

If you know for sure that you are going to be attending more than one wedding before you go out you have the chance to shop for both outfits together. With shops changing their range on six or 8-week cycles this is the wisest approach.

If you do not do this, you run the risk that styles will change drastically between shopping trips. Should that happen, it will become more difficult to buy accessories that fit together nicely with the outfit you have bought.

Accessories are the key

How you accessorise the outfit has a big impact on the overall look. Bear this in mind when choosing what you buy. You are looking for a dress, or maybe a suit, in a colour and fabric that is easy to match with different colour and styles of shoes, belts, scarves, handbags and hats.

Go classic

Choosing a classic cut improves your chances of being able to find the accessories you need. If you choose a radical look, your chances of being able to do this are reduced.

Think about the type of weddings you will be attending

Just as important is thinking about the kinds of weddings you will be attending during the year. A formal suit, in a luxurious fabric, may be perfect for a classy city wedding. Whereas, for a countryside wedding venue such as Heaton House Farm it won’t work so well.

Consider the weather

Another consideration is the weather. If you are attending a summer wedding, the chances are you will be fine in just a dress. But, if you want to wear that same dress to an autumn or winter wedding you will need a jacket or shawl. That is a good thing because you can choose one in a different fabric, which will make it far easier for you to give your outfit a fresh look.

Valentines Day with Blossoming Gifts

Everyone loves flowers and there is nothing better than a beautiful bunch of flowers arriving, unannounced to let you know someone is thinking about you, likewise, sending someone flowers is also an amazing thing to do and I do send flowers to friends just because I think it is a nice thing to do.

Blossoming Gifts is a new and exciting flower delivery company based right here in the UK and they specialise in the most beautiful florist designs at a low cost. What I like about Blossoming gifts is that you can shop by flower colour, price range, by occasion or you can simply spend some time looking at each and every offering that there is to see. As well as flowers, you will also find a wide range of hampers, wines, plants and personalised gifts. There is also a section called 'Flowers for Men' which I think is just amazing.  I have many male colleagues who love flowers as much as I do, so it is so good to see someone thinking of the men folk and catering for them.

The 14th of February is on the horizon and for those people who want to send or receive some Valentines Day Flowers, then Blossoming Gifts is a site you need to look at.  I was kindly given the opportunity to choose which flowers I would like to review and actually the choice was a difficult one to choose because there are so many amazing bouquets to choose from, However, as soon as I saw Tuberose as one of the flowers in this bunch, aptly named High Tea, it was a done deal.

The flowers arrived beautifully packaged inside a cardboard box to ensure their delivery to me did not damage them.  Before the box was opened, I could smell the flowers.  Once inside the box, much to the excitement of one lively kitten, I saw the flowers for the first time and they were just beautiful, not quite open, but so incredibly fresh, the scent lingered in my kitchen for hours. The High Tea bouquet is made up of Tuberose, Sweet Avalanche Roses, White Oriental Lillies, delicate tanecetum baya and long lasting, textured, crisp white carnations. Add to that a free box of chocolates and I am one very happy lady.

I have had the flowers in a vase now for 10 days and they are just beginning to wilt, all of the unopened Lillies opened as did the roses to full bloom and they look just beautiful in my kitchen.  Priced at just £31.99 they are an absolute great value for money bouquet and one which is worth every single penny.

Now I have an amazing offer for all my lovely readers from the people at Blossoming Gifts and that is 3% off a bouquet using the code BGIFTS33, the only bouquets exempt from the discount is the 'Flowers By Post' range.  

Will you be taking advantage of my discount code?

Cheerz Photo Printing

Photographs are something I take a lot of, as you would expect being a blogger, but never print them, in fact I can't even remember when I last printed any, so when Cheerz got in touch saying they would love to print my photos, I jumped at the chance. I am sure we all have photos that we treasure, those that just sit in our phones or are shared on social media, but are never printed.

Using Cheerz is really easy and it allows you to print photos from your Instagram, Facebook, Dropbox or even from your Camera Roll. Cheerz have both an app and a website and all you need to do is select your favourites, upload them and pick how you want them printed from a nice array of little designs such as a Cheez Box which filled with 30-45 Polaroid-style Prints, photo booth-style Strips, magnets, posters, and more. I opted for the Love Cheerz Box £13) and the photo booth-style strips (£6.50) and if you 'do' Valentines Day, this could be an amazing gift.

The Love Cheerz Box contains 30 photographs (though you can add more)and not only is the delivery super quick, the quality is just amazing.  I have 5 nephews and 4 nieces, not to mention 3 cats and wedding photos that have never been printed, so I had a lot to work with and decide what I wanted to have printed.  I did part of my choosing via my phone and part via web so I could have all my favourite photos.  You are also told if the pictures you want are not brilliant quality which is really helpful.  

Once you have added your photos, you will be able to crop them, add text, change their look and opt for Colour Block, Vintage style or have an all black or all white background. Once you have completed all these steps, you simply add to the cart and you are good to go.

The Photo Booth Style Strips, of which you will need to select 20 photographs and they are in strips of 4.  The process is again the same with the selection, upload your favourite photos, decide whether you want the strips to be horizontal or vertical, add some text and again choose your background if you wish to change the colour. Then again simply add to the cart and you are done.

This time I used some of my favourite photos and quotes, so I can either keep them in my purse, stick them to the fridge or give them to others.

What I love about this app/site is how easy it is to use, play around with and it is such good value for money. I created both of my options within less than an hour, the hardest part was deciding which photographs I wanted to print.  The quality is just superb and it is nice to finally have some photos of people and quotes that mean a lot to me, something I can display or carry with me, without having to rely on social media for those reminders.

If you like the sound of Cheerz and fancy having a go yourself, then I have a great offer for you below.

Have you every used Cheerz before? 

Do you have a bunch of photos just waiting to be printed?

Yardley London Hermina EDT + Giveaway

Experts in creating high quality floral fragrances since 1770, Yardley London is delighted to introduce Hermina; an intense, feminine floral woody fragrance inspired by the ‘First Lady’ of the House of Yardley. Named after the wife of William Cleaver - heir to the finest soap and perfumery establishment in London at that time - Hermina’s father, also a William, soon became the first ‘Yardley’ to officially own the business, since the original founder tracing back to the early 17th century. New for 2016, Hermina honours the rich 245 year history of the House of Yardley in a truly modern way, whilst celebrating the high society fashionista that was Hermina Yardley.

With its beautifully designed outer box to the bottle inside, this perfume is quite simply one I was not expecting to like.  Described as follows:

"Yardley London Hermina is an addictive, intense and feminine floral woody fragrance blending pear, lemon and bergamot with basil in the top notes with a sensual heart of fig, peach, black pepper and heliotrope complemented by a warm, woody and spicy amber base". 

 Surprisingly it isn't one of those perfumes which makes you wrinkle your nose up when you spray it, instead it is quite clean and fresh with the pear and lemon notes being really noticeable at that first spray and then as it settles on the skin with the scent of fig being equally matched to the spicy amber.  It is a perfume which manages to mix the floral and fruity with the spicy so that whichever camp you sit in when it comes to perfume, this one might just surprise you into liking it!

If this sounds like a perfume you really want to try, then I have one to giveaway. There is a Rafflecopter widget below to be completed and the winner will be drawn at the end of the 2 weeks.

Roger & Gallet Gingembre Rouge

Until now Roger & Gallet has been a brand which has escaped me until now, but I am so impressed with this Gingembre Rouge Duo, I am wanting to work my way through the entire range. There is something about the fragrances which are so captivating.

The Gingembre Rouge said is said to have been inspired by a stopover in Zanzibar, described as being an energising fragrance that reveals the freshness and sensuality of ginger in all its states.

The two products I have been using in the Fresh Shower Gel (£9) and the Sorbet Body Lotion (£14). The shower gel is an incredibly hydrating formula that is enriched with aloe vera to soothe and moisturise the skin. There is also an exquisite fragrance which derives from the use of ginger, pomegranate and mandarin all of which cleanse the skin, leaving it soft and energised. 

As soon as the gel, which doesn't over lather hit the steam of the warm water, the scent really comes alive and is one which lingers on the skin for most of the day. Gingembre rouge Shower Gel is suitable for both sensitive and dry skin.

When it comes to body lotions, I am really lazy at using them, unless I find one I really really like.  I adore this scent so much from Roger & Gallet that I have almost finished the tube.  

Perfectly packaged with a handy dispenser, this body sorbet is enriched with aloe vera, pomegranate oil and beautifying micro-pearls skin is left luminous and energised. The formula is incredibly luxurious and really hydrating. As soon as it comes into contact with the skin, it melts and absorbs to leave the skin feeling moisturised, refreshed and soft to the touch.

When used after the shower gel, the scent is much more intensified and is just lovely. If you are a fan of fruity fragrances which smell as though someone has just squeezed the fruit into your product, then you will love both of these, it is hard not too.
