Makeup that is, but now looking at my mug it’s not really that subtle is it? It’s a medium level of subtle I would say. I was feeling a bit sixties this weekend and I don’t know why. All I wanted to do was line my eyes with brown kohl pencil, applying lashings of mascara and warm my skin up with some bronzer – which is exactly what I did. Maybe it’s because this kind of makeup literally takes five minutes but lasts all day, or maybe it was because I just couldn’t be bothered with any fancy creative type makeup and was feeling a little on the lazy side.

Either way, I used very few products and you know what? It felt good. I think this whole minimalistic approach to makeup is really starting to work for me! My trusty Naked Palette, a Barry M kohl pencil, some gel liner from L’Oreal and lashings of mascara. Simples.

I planned to do a full blown tutorial on it but then I changed my mind and the camera was on and I’d already done my base so I though, ‘meh, I’ll just leave it running’. As a result, my husband, dogs and me speaking with no sound coming out all make an appearance in this video. Exciting. Not!

Hope you’re all having a lovely relaxing weekend!
