Model

Today I had my first experience of being a model for a friend who is doing a beauty course. I had my bikini line waxed with hot wax. I have been waxed before, my 3/4 leg and my bikini done with cool wax with strips so it was my first time with the hot wax. It went well and I do think I prefer the hot wax. Does it hurt? No not really, I must have a high pain threshold though as I know people who can't handle it and have to stop. Being a model for someone guarantees free treatments which if you're pretty poor like me it is great. Something which costs about £20 I'm saving money. The treatments are always watched over by a tutor too so there is nothing to go wrong. It's also great when your therapist is confident because it makes you feel at ease. I have been booked in for an underarm wax next week, I'm slightly more worried about this one.. But I get a free manicure for doing this. I even volunteered to be the model for her exam.
The treatments I'll get for free:
Manicure
Half leg wax
Bikini wax and
Underarm wax.

Honestly I can't wait. If you're interested in doing something like this then go on Facebook and search your local beauty school and volunteer.. Believe me they will be thankful because there will be a lack of models wanting to be waxed. But really it's not that bad.

Barefaced for Children in Need.

I love that the beauty world is getting involved with Children in Need. Kimberly Walsh, Suki Waterhouse and Laura Whitmore are among the stars who have been taking part in this event today. It's for a wonderful cause and it's lovely to see everyone's natural beauty. A few stars have been photographed by renowned photography Rankin to promote this campaign.

So November 8th, today women everywhere are going barefaced to work, at home, everywhere to help Children in Need and the lives of others who need our help.

Are you taking part in this today? I sure am.

No editing apart from a decrease in saturation. #barefaced for Children in Need.

MUA is a band which I keep seeing come up every now and again. The brand is so easily affordable and over time I have gathered a small collection of their make up. For £3.50, this is a complete bargain.

This Pro Brow kit includes some mini tweezers, a decent brow brush, fixing gel and three colours. The three colours are light blonde, blonde and brown to help highlight and shade. Because I have light blonde hair I often struggle which getting a decent shade, either my eyebrows may become too dark or too orange but with this palette I am left with a nice shape and colour. 

Before:

After:

I love these shades and even though I was in  a complete rush this morning and I really need to shape my eyebrows I was happy enough to go to work this morning.

I fully recommend this product and for the price you surely can't go wrong. I'm not someone to go crazy and spend £20/£30 on a make up product for HD eyebrows so I am happy enough with this.

At the moment this product is in the 3 for 2 offer in Superdrug. Buy it here.
