Hello new beauty friend! Another palette for my collection. Yes, I already have a full drawer dedicated to palettes and it's almost full but there's always room for another. Especially a do-it-all palette. Palettes that have essential light and dark eye shadows, completion powders to contour and highlight plus a pop of colour of possible. 

There's nothing I love more than do-it-all palettes but is it possible for a perfect palette that has everything? Well the new Charlotte Tilbury Instant Look In A Palette is pretty close!

 Hola new makeup launch!! I love a good launch, getting to draw all over myself whilst drinking champagne and eating teeny tiny canapes. Is that not the best way to spend a week night?

  Last week it was an unveiling of the GOSH Copenhagen SS16 beauty buys but which are the makeup must-haves and which should be left on the shelf? Let's take a closer look..


Inspired by the moody greys, raw nature and nordic heritage, the new GOSH Copenhagen collection is full of cool colours and wearable shades. But does the quality match up?  I've not bought GOSH makeup before, so I was really interested to see what it was like.

With New York Fashion Week in full swing, I'm frantically considering my options for LFW. I think it's probably one of the only times where I actually try something remotely trendy and where I finally wear something different. (what, no workwear and blazers??? Shock horror)

Same with the makeup, whether it's an obscure colour lip (remember this lilac lip fail anyone?) or a bold eyeshadow, it always tends to be about going outside the colour comfort zone. So what's new for eyeshadow this season then?

It's all very well and good rocking giant purple eyeliner and blue lips on the catwalk or the Somerset House quad but can ANY of these looks actually translate to the real world? 

So it's been a lucky week for me, not only did I win the biggest blogging gig of my life, I was also lucky enough to win a brand new (limited edition!) Urban Decay eyeshadow palette from London Beauty Queen. Cheers LBQ!

And it's not just any Naked basics palette though, it's the limited edition Pulp Fiction palette, beautifully inscribed with Pulp Fiction quotes and 90’s graphics.

Isn’t it BEAUTIFUL?! I only got it yesterday but I couldn't wait to crack it open and give it a go. Consider this post hot off the press!




What do you think? Is this one for your list?!
HAPPY WEEKEND! Hope it's a lucky one for you.

Hola Face Value friends! Today's makeup look is a rose gold inspired face. Think burnt copper, crushed gemstones, glints of champagne reflected by candlelight - today's makeup look is Summer's answer to smokey eyes and is perfect for a dinner date or a cheeky stopover at a chic wine bar.

Rose gold can be flattering on so many skintones and it's not just for your cheeks or lips. I never really wear colour on my eyes but rose gold is so subtle - it's almost like taupe and it really works! 

I'll be honest, when I first tried it, I just looked massively boooooozed (thanks, asian drinking genes!) but with the right balance of smoke and definition ie superfine eyeliner and a coat of fluttery mascara, it's really very, very easy.
 And the real beauty is ...I've only used 2 products to achieve it! 

What did I use?

Today's review has generated a lot of questions from my Instagram and Facebook followers. Mainly, ZOE, WHAT IS THIS and WHERE DID YOU GET IT FROM? 

As a big makeup fan, messing around with new makeup is always fun and when Glo Minerals asked me to create a "Pretty In Pink" look using their mineral-based makeup range, I was like ch-YEAH.

Glo Minerals then sent me three great products to use and I spent yesterday morning messing around with them. It's a bit like that round on Masterchef or Ready Steady Cook where the chefs are given some ingredients and expected to make a masterpiece. But was my look going to be Pretty Pinky or Pretty Stinky? 






What have we got and how did I use them??

It's the New Year Party and what did I wear on my face? (Other than a big boozy smile of course..)

Obviously there was a whoooole load of slap on there, but today I'm going to talk about the look I created using a couple of Oriflame products which were sent my way. 

Being a beauty blogger, there's always a bit of a focus on how you wear your makeup. People aren't going to read my beauty blog unless I prove my salt, so let's take a closer look!
