#LIPSTICK DAY - JULY 29th 2016...

According to Days of The Year.Com Friday 29th July is classed as 'Lipstick Day'...

Lipstick Day has been formed to celebrate that lovely stick that we all use on a daily basis whether to use it for a beautiful pout, to flaunt with or for a message on a mirror. We ladies do adore our lipstick.

And did you know that Sarah Bernhardt created a scandal by applying lip rouge in public and also that Queen Victoria considered makeup 'hugely impolite' and intended only to mark the most 'impolite' of women.

Yet, Winston Churchill found lipstick to be a wonderful morale booster and refused to limit its production during World War 11.

WHAT'S IN YOUR MAKE-UP BAG?...

What's in your make-up bag? I keep a separate make-up bag which has my core essentials in it for when I go away so that I know I won't forget anything.

I couldn't live without my eyelash curlers which I heat up with the hair dryer first as I find this makes my eyelashes really curl up. Do take care not to burn yourself though.  My mascara is Rimmel Wake Me Up Extreme Black Mascara.

I then use Sleekmake-up.com's Clear Eye Brow Gel for my eye brows. I love the gel as being a brunette my eye brows are very dark but this clearly defines them and keeps them looking perfect all day.

At the moment I have a bit of a tan on my face so I only need some blusher and my favourite is L'Oréal  Le Blush 145 Rosewood which I apply with a Boots Blusher Brush. I wasn't really into L'Oréal until my daughter started working for them but I really like their cosmetics now.

 

After reading an article about which type of eye shadows you should use if you are over sixty, I bought L'Oréal's Matte 101 L'Ombre Pure Eye Shadow as it was in matt. The reason I was looking for a matt eye shadow was because the article stated that a matt finish disguises lines more than  glossy eye shadow do. L'Oréal have a great tutorial video on 'How to get the Matte Eye Look'.

I also use Boots Natural Collection Eye Shadow Fragrance Free Crush Walnut and Sea Shell to finish my eyes. Although these do not state that they are matt they are definitely not glossy.

For my lips I use a lip liner first and will only buy the ones that you can twist to open and not the pencils as I find them hard to sharpen and look as good as new. Rimmel is one of my favourites and the one I use is Rimmel Lip Pencil Exaggerate 024 Red Diva. I then finish it off with Miss Sporty My Bff Lipstick 201. I was introduced to Miss Sporty while on holiday on the Costa del Sol when my own lipstick had melted in the sun. The Supermarket I popped into had this particular range and the price was so good that I decided to give it a go. You cannot fault the fantastic choice of colours they have and at the very reasonable price of only £2.99 !!!!!

Well that's my summer's cosmetics - what's yours? ...

BACTERIA IN YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES...

Did you know that your beauty brushes can hoard bacteria and should be cleaned regularly?

According to an article on Bloglovin written by Sania Claus Demina, our brushes should be cleaned preferably daily or if not at least once a week. Sania points out that if you think about what your brushes pick up every day, makeup, dead skin cells, dirt and dust, oil from your skin and bacteria which then goes straight back into your skin.

There are numerous 'brush cleaners' available on the high street. Some well known ones are available from Amazon like the eBoot 3 piece makeup brush cleaner.

Marks and Spencer has a vast choice of makeup brushes but they also have this antibacterial brush set which is on offer at the moment for £28 instead of £35.

AN EXFOLIATION FACIAL TREATMENT...

An exfoliation facial is a treatment that can not only help to remove dead skin celss but can also slow down the rate at which skin ages.

Cleansing alone will not give the same effect on your skin but exfoliation helps to slough off these cells, and it's not used strictly on your face it can also be used on your body. I recently had a back exfoliation and it was amazing how different my skin felt afterwards.

You can buy different types of exfoliaiton products around from powders to electrical gadgets. However, a professional exfoliation facial given by a qualified beautician will give you the best results.

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH A SCALP MASSAGE...

A scalp massage is not only extremely relaxing but it can also stimulate the nerves and blood vessels beneath the skin while calming muscle tension around the head. Tension is felt within the head and neck, so scalp massages can be very effective as a stress reducer.

The therapist will use their fingers to rub the base of the scalp beneath the hair, the sides of the head, the forehaed, chin, hairline, neck, shoulders and spine. Some use warm oil to massage into the scap. It is one of the most relaxing massage treatments available.
