Look of the day #2

Thought I would share my make up for today. I went for a meal with my boyfriend so it was nothing too special, but I am in love with this lipstick colour! It's Grenadine by Smashbox. I do believe its a discontinued colour but you may still be able to get it at your local counter which is where I bought mine.

Sho Gallery Cardiff!

Last month I discovered an art and gallery shop just off Albany Road on Inverness Place in Cardiff that has been there quite a few years so I felt really ignorant that I hadn't noticed it before!
I was drawn to the mix of art there which included original art and prints, art materials and collectibles. It spreads over two floors and contains art from artists from around Britain.
After much deliberation over 3 wonderful pieces of art I finally decided on a piece by Katy Christianson which is a limited edition screen print, the piece is untitled.

If you're in the area I advise you to pop into the gallery, you might see something you'll like! There were many unusual pieces there, it was hard to choose. The atmosphere was friendly and I was ease wandering around looking at the shop and gallery!

LGFB + Benefit Blogger event, with Gimmie Brow and Big Easy!

Last week I decided to go along to the Benefit Blogger event which was also an event to raise money for the Look Good Feel Better charity, which deals with people who are going through cancer treatments and suffering with the visible side effects. It teaches them how to apply cosmetics, skincare, anything that can make them look good and feel better.
Their main focus was the brows and their newest brow product, Gimmie Brow, which is a micro fiber gel product which thickens the brows appearance. It was also a sneak peak session to see their newest product, Big Easy, which is described as being bigger than a BB.
