So on the 27th February I entered the giveaway face Halo was sharing on their instagram page. It was to share a photo of you using a face Halo cloth and to use the #facehalo and #whoIamisenough then tag a friend in the post.

Then on the 1st March I woke up to a lovely surprise that I had won the giveaway and would be receiving a years supply of Face Halo makeup removers. I was so excited and couldn’t believe that I had won.


Yesterday 15th March I received my goodies. I don’t know what it is, but when I first heard of face Halo sometime last year I instantly took to them. I love what they stand for as a company and the product itself is just fab.


A non toxic microfibre pad that you can put into the wash and use up to 200 times. The founders Bec and Lizzy are busy mums and just wanted to find simple and easy solutions for us all with our busy lives.


How you use these pads, you just need water that’s it. I use mine to wipe off face masks and also they are fab to add makeup remover and just wipe away if you feel you need more than just water. I’ve wiped away a full face with just water.


Ladies they are fab for those lazy nights when you just want to get into bed without having to do the whole skincare regime.. but I do highly recommend sticking to your routine. These pads are just a fab way to remove it all.


So if you fancy giving Face Halo a try

you can grab some from BOOTS, BEAUTY BAY, MISSGUIDED and ALLBEAUTY.


Or you can go to www.facehalo.com and set up a subscription. Every 3 months they will automatically ship out to you a pack of 3 to last you 3 more months. You decide...


My sisters have already bagsied a packet each to try, that’s how much I go on about them. So I suppose I could give them some to try (Laughing).


Speak to you next week...

Ok, 2019 is well underway and the trends for this year have been announced and I am excited to share some of my faves.


Well, let's start with the Pantone colour for this year... Living Coral, I actually like it. Coral was the colour theme on my wedding day twelve years ago.


So let me talk skincare... I love skincare and I think yes it can be very overpriced, but can you really put a figure on keeping your skin looking good as we all mature? It is worth every penny to invest in the largest organ of your body.


This years focus on skincare is all-natural ingredients. I have a fab homemade soup I am going to share live on Facebook in February to help get your skin glowing, so stayed tuned.

Have you heard of You.ology? Well, you have now and get excited, it's going to be the future of skincare. You can create a customisable routine to suit your skin needs and yours only out of 40,000 combinations... yes you heard 40,000. How can this be possible, well we take a quick quiz and it gives us the combinations of what our skin needs.


Makeup


NUDE - Is in for this year too as barley there makeup looks are definitely the thing of 2019. What are you thinking about highlight on the eyelids rather than on your cheeks? Yep its all about the eyes baby.


GLOSS - Lip gloss is one for the make up bag and its not just for going on the lips. Ladies, you can apply on your eyelids too. Lip gloss is very 80's. Bright lips would look fab with the gloss.


Hair

So the colour for this year is the natural grey ladies and lilac even though I am loving the peach styles. I think I need to ask my hairdresser and see what she thinks.


Nails


Well, we can not forget the nails now, can we? Almond-shaped nails are in with on ombre finish look. I was explaining to my nail technician, the look I got was like, don't even go there. Yep, she likes the boring old way lol... She will kill me and laugh at the same time.


Fashion is my favourite blogger's department Fashionlifeforward so go check her out.


Well, that's it from me, see you all soon.

P.S stay tuned, for Take Care February.
