Huda Desert Dusk Palette

Huda eye shadow palettes have been all over the media on beauty pages & vlogs. We always loved the idea of an eye shadow that looks the same colour when applied to the eyes and Huda delivers.The pigments are so rich and it feels like a creamy powder that glides onto the eyes.

Julia: "I believe it contrasts beautifully with both light, dark, shimmer & matte. You can literally create any colour for any occasion. It makes this the go-to palette for night or day.I would say the price is reasonable for what you can create."
Collette: "I agree. Its perfect for wearing to meet friends for coffee or for parties. My favourite colours from the palette are Celestial, Angelic and Blood Moon. What colours do you use when borrowing this?"
Julia: "I like Cosmo, Amber and Twilight. I had a combination of those for my college awards night."
Collette: "Your look was stunning. I am glad you returned this palette as its my favourite."
Julia:" You nearly didn't get it back."
Collette:"I know where you live.It's fine."
*Laughs*
Collette; "What Huda palette do you really like the look of? Which palette has the best colours?"
Julia: "I like the Rose Gold Remastered Palette. The colours are diverse."
Collette: "I really love the Nude Eye Shadow palette that Huda make. It's on my wish list."

A Haunting Memoir: Part one

My story starts when I was a young child. I was born in Scotland but moved down to Somerset as a child. I loved it so much. I loved the flowers and the conkers I’d collect on the way to school. I remember all the frogs in my garden and how I'd name them. I moved twice down in England. The houses were always large and I’d get the rooms mixed up, trying to remember where to turn to find my bedroom. I would visit London where my relatives stayed. I loved the vibe of London. One visit to my Nans, we walked down to Church Street market and seeing so many interesting people. The one man with dreadlocks holding a large ghetto blaster on his shoulder playing Bob Marley passed me. I couldn’t get enough of the place. One stall had toys on it. I bought some wooden blocks and a handheld electronic mini piano. They were perfect mementos to remember my visit. When we returned to Scotland I unpacked and placed my electronic piano on my bedside table. It had colours on the notes and London Bridge

L’Oréal Revitalift

L’Oréal are an established company that have delivered quality beauty products for over a century . L’Oréal is a brand I can trust. I worked with L’Oréal by trying the Revitalift range of products over six months. This range offers more than the skincare I was using. I invite you to read more about Revitalift and my journey with this range. ~ Collette. Revitalift is a range of products I had seen advertised and heard amazing feedback from others. I was thrilled when L’Oréal invited me to try these products over the lockdown months. I am in my 40’s and I struggled to find skincare that is effective. Lockdown has taken it’s toll on my skin. I have new wrinkles from tears and frustration like a lot of people. Firstly I tried their Revitalift Laser Renewal moisturiser. This was lovely and light on the skin. This moisturiser is the first moisturiser I used. It has a subtle colour to it that leaves a gorgeous glow on the skin. Revitalift Laser Renew is light on the skin. It gives skin a

Beauty Ties creator: Collette

Hello BeauTies, I have always loved art from an early age. Taking photographs and drawing or painting. I have designed two wedding dresses for friends who got them made up. I've adored beauty products since I had my Victoria Plum nail polish and lip balm from Avon as a child. I love beauty products and how they make me feel. The colours and scents. I get so much joy from trying new products and photographing them. I skipped the afternoon one day at school and ended up in a movie. That was unexpected and it fuelled my passion for creativity and how things are made. It was an experience I will never forget. My name was taken by someone in the crew to go in the credits but when I saw the movie I was not on the credits, sadly. I will never forget the joy I got from being in it. Long days from early mornings and late finishes. The photo from the press shoot hangs in my hallway. Julia urged me to hang it up rather than feel ashamed of it. So it’s hanging up in my home for the first tim
