I bought primark matt, i liked it but i dont have spots or blemishes plus i am a darker skin tone being asian. Therefore i did not need a lot of product for coversge. I felt it gave me good coverage compared to boots number 7 and was more pigmented.
Hey! This is an old video, and my skin is completely clear now but you are totally right microneedling did help with the scarring - it's not recommended over active acne because you can puncture and spread the bacteria but on healed acne marks it was brilliant and I did do it! I have a new skin problem (that I haven't filmed yet 😂) I have pigmentation from pregnancy, I've had 2 kids since this video! Thanks for commenting xx
Hey! I'm so sorry I missed your other comments! I was a freelance makeup artist and beauty journalist, and then I went into teaching :) I own my own makeup school in Ireland now and we've been open 3 years xx
I know it had been 9 months since you made this video but I wanted to ask about your skin routine. I was 13 years old when I tried Clinique facial bar soap 🧼 which is roughly $12 usd so I assume under £10 for you. But it very very good and I’ve used it whenever I was experiencing not so great face days. I really recommend it. I might even send you some if you want! I feel like I made a new friend from the UK but you just don’t know it yet lol☝️🤪
Where are ya from luv! I’m from Honolulu, HI:) I think every place has its own beauty within:) on Oahu (my island) it’s very tropical and Sunny even now during Christmas week. I wish I could go visit the big island which is the biggest south of the Hawaiian islands and there is SNOW ❄️ there at Mauna Kea (White Mountain 🏔) but we’ll see as I don’t believe traveling even inner island is safe during covid.
Thank you. Thanks for showing us how to hold the brush because the tools we use, which tool when, and how to hold..pressure all of that isn’t shown in videos when you get excited watching say IG and you love the look enough to want to re-create it. But the tough part can always be where to begin. Which initial brush is best. It all matters😊👌Thanks!
Hey! I'm so sorry I'm only seeing this now 😭 but I got it in the arts and crafts section in Mr. Price which is like a euro shop type store in Ireland. But I've picked up paintbrushes in the art sections of any craft store with synthetic stiff bristles over the years and they work so well xx
Hi Lauren. Have you ever tried Biofresh skincare products? Or even heard of them? Check out Kerrinicoleblanc on Instragram. Her skin was very bad with acne and she did a blog on her page about her journey using these products. I use their undereye cream it's amazing. These products might help you. Kerri is now a brand ambassador for their products now.
Hey! I can't remember the lip liner but looking at this video I would guess it's Spice from MAC and Abu Dhabi from NYX, I went through a phase of that being my go to combo x
Hey Samia I'm just seeing your comment now! Yes it does oxidise a little bit, I found it went a little more dark as the day went on. But I actually bought a shade that's a little bit light for me by accident so I didn't mind x
Beautiful and skilled buildup and blending of the base makeup, more is just more. So important in a glamourous "made up" look that blows Your socks off…. Irish and British girls are so good at these super glam expressions. I would love to see more vids like this.
Fantastic expression girl. You look gorgeous, beautiful skin pigmentation, love a bold intense skin look, and the magic of liquid eyeliner. How about a 2020 update, including the " How to create this beautiful and powerful base makeup" part, left out in this short video. So much energy and sexappeal in this look, very well done.
Hi Lauren, just wondering how you did your eyeliner on your inner corner and lower lash line? It looks fab but I can’t do it, every time I attempt it, it looks terrible! Xxxx 💞💞
