My Favourite Nude Lip Combination

I'm not that girl that wears understated, natural makeup. Nah, that's just not me. My everyday makeup consists of a defined brow followed by bold eye makeup with flawless skin, a nude lip and plenty of highlighter. I've attempted to do subtle makeup several times but I have a habit of adding more and more product until it becomes the complete opposite of subtle. It just didn't work at all. 

I love the drama on the eyes paired with a nude lip. A nude lip can be seen as playing it a little safe but I would choose that over a bright lip anyday. It's all I ever seem to wear lately. In fact, there's three nude lip products that I haven't stopped wearing lately. I haven't used anything else on my lips for months now. They are the perfect nude lip combination.

Saying Goodbye to Beauty Division

2013 was the year I first started this blog of mine. It's bizarre to think it's been nearly seven whole years since that very first day that I posted my first blog post. Oh, back then my photography was terrible, taking flatlays on my parents bathroom floor or on my bed in poor lighting with my mobile phone. I'd post daily for months on end. I didn't care about how my photos looked, how my blog looked and I was rarely active on Instagram. Now, fast forward a couple of years and here we are. I've done a complete 360 turn.

I first started my blog when I was 19/20. It was about a year or so after I finished college and it was just before I started my first job. I was at a loss of what to do. I had in my head for quite a long time that I wanted to start a blog, however I always had that niggling thought in my head that perhaps I wasn't good enough. It sounds a bit silly, but I really did believe that.

In the very beginning I was focussed on beauty content, talking about all the newest product launches, showing my beauty hauls and reviewing every product going, but soon that changed when I became pregnant with my first little boy. I posted pregnancy updates and I talked a little about my life as a mummy. My blog took a different direction for a while, however I never completely stopped talking about beauty. That will always be my niche.
