Bringing Glamour to the offices across the UK or possibly your first date or simply to be INAA fabulous. Looking forward to this season, finding that we need to introduce colour with smoulder eyes. The product every girl needs and some men that like to play with the best friend or girl friend makeup bag.

I smoulder smoky eye pencil and shadow from New ID studio has a range of impresive colours. A beautiful product has a special place in anyone's makeup bag, to create a smoky eye without using brushes special for the lady on the move or simply to refresh for bizz lunch.

Simply apply the liner arround your eyes, then go over with the shadow to create a softer effect ot's awesome. Celebrities to be watching out for is one of my faverite Kim Kardashian her long hair styled with GHD s also useing your GHD to create Kira Knightly waves on short hair -  very Chanel.

GHDs are stronger than ever with the limited editon pink with a cluch bach that nicely fit the irons into plus £10 pounds of every pair sold goes to breast cancer simply amazing... creating waves and volume will feel lovely lush waves not like a hat :)

Yours truly, Zak Coldicutt

Keep it cute ladies...

 

After years of long hair 2 years ago I took the plunge and had it all cut off, I loved it for a while but soon starting to grow it out again. Then early this year with my almost shoulder length hair while at my best friends house I found out she wore clip in extensions. This is my best friend and I never knew! She explained she wore them for volume not for length and it had made her feel a lot more confident about her thin hair. It got me thinking; maybe extensions could be the answer for me.

About 10 years ago I tried bonded extensions and they were terribly applied and left my hair frazzled so I was dubious about extensions. However after reading up on clip in extensions I knew they were the way to go. I ordered my first set of 150g extensions there and then and they arrived shortly after. Since then it’s rare if I’m out that I don’t have extensions in. I feel lost without them, I love that I can change my hair from shoulder length too my waist in 10 minutes flat!

People who know me obviously know I wear extensions but people who don’t would never know. My extensions are coloured by myself so they perfectly match my hair. I sometimes wear them curled so it blends better with my own hair or run straighteners through them to blend the ends. I have 3 set of extensions now in different lengths and thicknesses; I tend to wear my Halo Hair Extensions the most as I find them very comfortable and soft. The clips are really secure and then look very natural.

No matter what the day I feel lost without extensions in and with new things coming onto the market every day I don’t think I’ll be giving them up anytime soon. I am soon to be trying a product called the ‘Halo’ by Halo Hair Extensions where the hair is on a wire you wear on your head and doesn’t have any clips at all! This would save me even more time on getting ready and less time doing my hair. I think almost anyone can wear hair extensions if they have some length to their hair. Whether its length, volume or both there’s extensions for everyone!

Lots of Love, Mel xxxx

The Coming trends for this season are still focusing on colour on the eyes and the lips. So ladies get those seductive eyes at the ready, Along with a pop of colour it will facinate your man, bring in some fresh meat maybe neither of the above but at least you will look beautiful?

Colours? Its all about YOU, in this world there is no need to dictate what is good or bad what is right or wrong as we are all individuals, and should follow that through to our apearance. There is no harm in asking the experts, any high end brand will have someone on hand to match you up and advice you whats best for YOU. Contrasting colours with your eyes has an amazing result. Blue eyes I would suggest a brown even bronzey smokey eye, It will make your eyes POP. Brown eyes? Go for highlighters a good shimmer even a little glitter will look AHMAZING, as a brown eyed girl a colour I like personally is purple!

Lips, GLOSS GLOSS GLOSS, I used to HATE the stuff with a passion but its something I have recently fallen in love with, line your lips first and just a simple plain gloss goes a hell of a long way. Even with a strong red lip always add gloss to the middle of your lips as it will make them look bigger (industry secret)

Girls GET YOUR GLAM ON

MAKE IT UP.

We have spoken about hair previously, we’ve covered how important it is and the IMPACT it can have on your image, this season L'Oréal have hit the nail on the head.

WOW people with your hair, even a blow dry at a city salon can be the perfect start to your night out, GET IT RIGHT, Advise? Girls stop back colmbing your hair. The sleeker and glossier the hair the better. You dont have to get a crazy hair cut to make a hug difference even the way its styled can completely change your image so get on it girls.

 

Skin, look after YOUR SKIN. It is the largest cell on your body and we all take it for granteed. The skin on your face should be the one and only key factor you INVEST YOUR MONEY IN.

The clinique three step process is one of the best and its something we all should follow regularly

Cleanse

Exfoliate

Moisturize

Whether you can afford clinique or not there are hundreds of lotions and potions out there, I personally mix it up, I don’t have dry skin, its more oily, Moisturing my face can sometimes put too much moisture into it  and has a bad effect on my pores. The nivea products are a safe bet when looking for a light moisturizer, again if you have a bit more money in your purse the MAC moisturizer if a firm favourite with all my make up artists. (they always have all the tricks of the trade so I trust there judgement) Also moisturizing your skin before applying make up can help the make up commit to the skin for longer.

Clansing and Exfoliating, I use dermalogica, again a more high end brand but so good for your skin, I have used the MAC cleanser also which is amazing for taking make up of but its a little bit oily and as I said before I already have that to start with so I use the MAC one to take off dark make up.

Experts suggest you exfoliate your skin once or twice a week, I do 3 times.  Be very careful about the company you shop with as when getting my skin mapped the girl told me that products like clearasil although good for spots are infact way too strong for your skin and can do more good than bad.

So keep your skin happy, invest a little money I promise you YOUR WORTH IT

Love INAA
