Prom day last week for this amazing young lady... I was honoured to be asked to do her makeup, hair styling and nails for her special day and to turn her vision into reality. She looked absolutely fabulous don't you think! 😍🥰🤩💃💚

Sicilian tiles inspired nail art felt appropriate for the warm weather.



(And a bonus photo from a recent trip away)

'Tropical' themed gel nail art. A recent look that really drew attention.

Simple, elegant, timeless design for a quick update of my gel polish overlays.

Spring florals... again something I've not had time to do in ages. It was great to be able to play with nail art again and I enjoyed creating these hand painted flowers. Though I did question the idea when I then had to match up the other hand. 🤭😆

When inspiration strikes... a quick playtime one evening. Half an hour's fun and various elements I'll likely play with in my makeup looks in the coming weeks. 😊

Sunscreen
Continuing from my post about facial suncreams I use, here are my options of sunscreen for my body. I need strong protection as I've got very pale and delicate skin which burns super easily. I therefore have found clear spray sunscreens are much easier to manage (easier for quick top ups on the go too) than traditional sun creams.
Lancaster is my absolute go-to favourite over the past years. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, protects really well and is an easy to apply, clear spray.
UltraSun is a brand that's often easier to find and also do a similar product.
Boots spray is my least favourite of these, but a continuous spray which can be convenient when trying to get hard to reach areas with none to assist. Also a handy size to pop in a bag for days out in sunny weather.
I have another favourite when I'm out in Italy, but can't remember the brand name. It's again a similar type (clear spray, SPF 50+) and can be found in some local pharmacies where my English favourites can't.

Suncream
With the recent lovely weather it's a good time to think about suncream. These are my current choices of facial sunscreen.
Rituals - a new addition I've taken a liking to
UltraViolette - a favourite over the past years
Envie De Neuf - a sample I really like from a foreign brand (has to be ordered from abroad)
Chantecaille - a favourite skincare brand of mine and a serum like texture

My main skincare selection at the moment.
Some old favourites I stocked up in the past, some newer favourites I've adopted into my routine and some sample sizes I'm enjoying trying out. These are the options I currently pick and choose from daily, whilst the rest of is stored away tidy.
