Lancôme’s new spring 2011 collection



This morning I was lucky enough to meet Lancôme’s global artistic director Aaron De May. Born in New Zealand and having moved to New York to work, Aaron is one of the most passionate most experienced make-up artists I’ve ever met. Lancôme’s new spring collection contains glittery highly pigmented pressed powder shadows, a rich dirty lilac coloured Hypnose mascara, soft shades of rose lipstick and Aarons new favourite, the Dewy Glow Base which is a delicate mist (containing essentials oils and which smells like a spa) that you spray onto cleansed skin to prime and over make-up to set. Genius.

Cake and beauty combine...




Mama Mio and Primrose Bakery have joined forces to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month which runs for the whole of October. Mama Mio will donate £1 from every one of these cup cakes sold to the Look Good...Feel Better charity. There has never been a better reason or time to buy cake - lots of cake.
