Artistry Signature Colour Lipstick*

Hello Dolls.

I was kindly sent two lipsticks from the Artistry Signature Range last week. To be honest I never heard of the range but after a little but of googling and research I have found them to be one unique and beautiful brand. 

Artistry specialize in makeup, skincare and cosmetic accessories. All which look quiet amazing and interesting. 
I was sent two different lipsticks, one from their signature range and another from the sheer signature range. 

At first glance the packaging is super sleek and stunning. Bold metal and luxurious looking.I really loved the feature of the bullet, Twist and Click! Super unique and such a great idea to ensure it wont open in your bag. I feel a great Idea. 





The colours I got were really wearable and beautiful. I got Velvet and Honey (Sheer lipstick). Both two different shades. Velvet is a pink toned red, not really my kinda red usually, but I did find it really wearable on me. Honey on the other hand it what I consider a brownish blonde toned colour. A great everyday colour. Surprisingly, the textures where amazing. Honey is like a balm with a great pigment and Velvet has a lovely soft and moisturizing texture. Both so wearable both day and night. They look great and they do not bleed at all. A great benefit is also contains Vitamin E, which keeps your lips soft and hydrated. 


Left: Velvet, Right: Honey

There are over 16 different shades to choose from in the orginal signature and sheer range. One which will suit everyone. 
They are priced at €25.10 and can be found on Amway.

A great lipstick also for this season of LOVE <3

Have you tried anything else from this brand? Will you try these lippies?
Get in touch and let me know!

Happy February! 
Sharing the LOVE <3 right here!

Whether you are buying for your Wife, Girlfriend, Partner or Friend that is a Lady, here is my guide for Valentines Day.
For me I love Valentines Day, a day to spend with your loved one or ones and enjoying a night out, dinner or simply watching a dvd or having a glass of wine!

I have divided these posts for Him and Her and on each post I will help you choose for a Long Time Love or Just Dating. It will also be high end and budget friendly. So all to suit everyone at any stage of their relationship or budget. 


Perfumes:

Beyonce Heat. You can pick this up from all good pharmacies or fragrance counters. A great pick for Valentines day, not only for its colour bottle being fitting and the name, but the scent.

A nice present and not going to break the bank. Prices go from €15+ in selected retailers. 


Valentines Usual's:

I have chosen all these from Feehilys Florist Sligo . 
If perfume and jewelry are not your thing and you want to get something more Valentines themed like Teddy, Flowers and Chocolates, here are some picks...

"Long Time Love..<3"

Cookie Bear, €27.95. A cuddly friend for your lady. Every lady loves a teddy. And this guy is my favorite from the lot.


"Just Dating"

Single Kiss Rose Vase. €26. Perfect to show your romance and love even when you are just dating. A lovely gesture and a single rose can be even more romantic than a bunch of roses.  Beautifully put together from Feehilys.

Valentines Tulip Vase *

Valentines Tulip Vase. €39. As beautiful as roses and a great alternative if your lady isn`t into roses or likes to be different. Stunning!

Day 30 of 30 Day Challenge

HELLO DOLLS!

Can you believe. Last Day. January flew I am telling you. How did you find the start of the year, was it GOOD or BAD or JUST THE SAME?
Did you like these sort of posts? Would you like to see a similar post? More beauty, lifestyle,food,  thoughts or photo challenges? Let me know or link me some that you think I should do, as I do love doing these things. 
So whats for the future?

"A thing you are excited for?"

1.Get Fit, Die Trying!

I want to be healthy and fitter. Not collapsing as I reach the top of a set of stairs or panting after a run. I suffer with asthma, and I know as I have been feeling the benefit of exercise, that it has opened up my lungs and I less and less need my inhaler. I want to feel healthy and less sick. I also have some tight muscles and and tendinitis in a few joints so, movement of those are important. I want to get into loving running, but I still love a walk and soft jog and really do feel the benefits.

Get Fit Or Die Trying

2. Be more confident!

With anxiety, you pair yourself back from situations and kinda like your own comfort. Also with having gained weight, you do feel crappy. So since losing what I have I want to work harder for my goal and also start being confident. I am a naturally quiet and observant person, which can taken the wrong way, but I do want to break that mould and be a more happy me. 

need to keep reminding myself of that. i am way too hard on myself. a struggle i have to face.
image pintrest


3. Work more on my blog!

Even though you have heard from me alot this month. I defo want the motivation to keep going. I want to write better, create a new banner and theme, be better at photos and more creative. So little by little I hope I can do that.

Love this! - http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/af/e2/a7/afe2a761d1832f7f29b08d77d1689347.jpg

Day 29 of 30 Day Challenge

Hey Ladies,

Have you weird obsessions, guilty pleasures that you turn beetroot over, but still won`t give them up. I think we all have them, right?!

"Five weird things you like?"


1.Peanut Butter & Banana

When I mention this to people I get, "Eewww". I love this combo, there is something so satisfying about it. Really curbs a sweet tooth. 


 10 Snacks under 150 Calories that have a combo of protein and carbs to quickly recharge lost energy. Inexpensive, mostly unprocessed, easy to make and take on the go. Lunch box worthy.

2. Cracking Joints.

I know, I know this is not good for you. But I suffer with tendinitis on my right arm, wrist and fingers and to relieve the strain. When I crack them, you can hear it, but it is such a relief and relaxes them instantly. My boyfriend just laughs when he heres it now! 

Total Body Stretch- This 15-minute full-body stretching routine can improve your range of motion, increase circulation, and calm your mind.

3. Smell of cut grass.

The smell of cut grass is the sign of Spring/Summer. Even though I know suffer with allergies with cut grass, pollen etc,, I still love the smell. 

Settembre e il suo #profumo d'erba, da respirare durante le ultime scampagnate con amici.

4. Smell of cosmetics

I love any lipsticks or glosses that smell amazing. Ones that you would nearly eat. Barry M Toffee and Stawberry milk, NYX Butter Gloss`s & Tanya Burr lipgloss always smell amazing. Its a bonus when you get a great smell from your lip products, after all they are applied under your nose, so you want it to be pleasant. 

Nyx butter gloss in creme brulee love mine!!

5. Taking my makeup off.

I know its a given and as  makeup artist you would think I would love to have makeup on the whole time. To be honest I love doing other peoples makeup and mine for that extra glam for ocassions. But every day I dont wear makeup. SHOCKER! But I love collecting it. Weird!!?
But the feeling of washing your face and it clean, is a great feeling. 

Apple cider vinegar acne treatment. Even works on acne scars.

Day 28 of 30 Day Challenge

Hey Lady..

So if you had the chance to move somewhere and experience a different culture, would you?
I do envy people who can choose to up and leave and follow their dreams, but if you are like me you have close family and love home, its a hard thing to do.  But if you could, where would you go? Or where would you like to visit?

"Somewhere you would like to move/visit?"

I am a typically girl. I love Paris, New York, Rome etc.. All are so romantic, girly and have that aww effect on us.
But if you look at the globe, where else would I go?



AFRICA...


The 10 Most Amazing South Africa Safari Lodges Offering Thrilling Experiences
image pintrest

Can you image waking up to the sounds of Elephants, or spotting Giraffes while you eat breakfast outside. Animals we see in the zoo or on telly, in their habitat, it would be crazy but amazing I think. Pure air and I do feel you would come back feeling refreshed. 


Northern Countries..

Northern lights in Iceland - it's Asgard! I knew it was real and that Thor exists. :)
image pintrest

From Iceland, Norway etc... you will get some opportunity to experience the beauty that is of the Northern Lights. I think I would be a cold, but gorgeous view and beautiful on to go with a loved one. Peaceful, Calm with a wonderful sky show. 


GREECE..

Our own Damon O'Donnell is planning to see Santorini, Greece this year.
image pintrest

When I think Greece, I think Grecian gods and goddess, Athens and the beautiful views, white structures, clean lines, clear seas and colours. I think it would be a fabulous country to visit and the food and culture would be amazing. 


Where would you go to move or visit? I would love to know!

Here is Day 27 & 26

Day 27 of 30 Day ChallengeHe

Hey Girls.

Have any of you any quotes you love or live by? I am totally a Disney freak with quotes, but I am not using one here. But feels free to ask for my favourite ones..(any excuse) haha!

" A quote you live by"

So I may not live by this quote, as I have so many that stick out to me. Thousands really. But I like this one. Its one for the Ladies, no matter what track of life you are on. Quoted from an icon and lady herself Audrey Hephurn.
