ASOS market

Ollie May is branching out! You can now also find us on ASOS Market, which is all very exciting!! 

I am currently writing this blog whilst listening to a pretty impressive thunder storm outside (o wow it is now hailing) so it seems fitting to post the photos from our ASOS photoshoot as it was a beautiful summers day (please come back!!) 

Now you may be wondering why the photos aren't all glitzy and fabulous and that is because there are certain rules that must be applied before selling in the Market. All photos must be taken in natural light and not edited (scary) so the customer can see the items for what they actually are (makes sense).

So here are a few of them - modeled by yours truly (don't laugh)

Enjoy!

SUMMER LOVING!!

Oh my goodness can this weather be any more beautiful!?! Tan me up baby!! Who needs to go on holiday when the UK is this HOT!

So what does one wear in this weather? Shorts and a crop tee....borrrring! Today I've channeled my inner Greek Goddess, and I am loving it! The dress is Ollie May (of course) and is called the Kayleigh Dress, whats even better is its only £27.99! This dress is so easy to wear - floaty, light, and covers all the right areas! I think what I like so much about this dress is you can wear it casual or really dress it up - perfect :)

Quick Summer Fix

Hey everyone!

Just thought I'd do a quick blog on my summer makeup essentials right now - and they're all at an affordable price!


Starting off with Garniers BB cream! In the summer I like to stay away from heavy foundations and coverage and lean towards something light and easy to apply. Let me tell you Garnier have answered my prayers and more! They call it the "Miracle Skin Perfector" and they did not lie! This liquid formula is so light it feels like I'm wearing nothing, not only that it gives me a natural glow and covers all my blemishes!.....perfection!

Moving on to Rimmels "Wake me up" concealer. This concealer promises to contain an anti-fatique effect and a radiant glow, and if I'm honest....it really does! Fabulously I'm blessed with horrific dark circles permanently under my eyes, so this little gem is a god send to me! I am extremely fussy with concealers as I find many to be either too cakey, hard to blend, or just dries my under eye skin out....not an attractive look. But alas this concealer is easy to apply, blends well and keeps my skin hydrated! 10/10

Next on the quick fix list is another beauty from Rimmel and that's their ScandalEyes mascara! If you want defined long eyelashes that doesn't look like a spider has befriended your face then this is the product for you! Eyelashes look darkened and enhanced but still with a natural feel to them, which is perfect for an everyday look. Not to mention its really easy to take off....don't you find some mascaras an absolute nightmare to get rid off and the end of the day?

Nearly finished.... I love a good winged out eye for a day look, and I find a gel liner and essential to create this. I swear by MAC gel pot Fluidline in the shade Black Trick. This little pot lasts for ages! I find so many gel pots dry out really quickly, but no this little guy just keeps going! I think the two things I love mainly about this product is 1. its so easy to apply  2. it stays put for the whole day. What more could you want hey? Apply this gel liner with a small angle brush, I recommend MAC 266 brush.

And FINALLY we are left with my favorite product of the moment and that is L'Oreal's lipstick in the shade 501 Nude Ingenue! This lipstick in my opinion goes with EVERYTHING and will match every skin tone. It glides on with such ease, has such a lovely natural shimmer to it and smells like pink icing! LOVE LOVE LOVE!....may I also add the packaging is super chic!

And that's it for you guys, my quick summer fix! Hope you enjoyed reading it and feel inspired! Scroll down for the finished look and prices!
