What’s in your bag – Emma

by Tuesday, December 31, 2013
whats in your bag

We love reading posts about 'What's in my bag' (maybe we're just nosy?) so we thought we'd all do one each so you get to see a little bit about each of us. This week it's Emma and an insight into her everyday bag with her essentials for organisation and beauty! I always carry my purple makeup bag with me, and it includes the usual essentials - powder, concealer, blush so if I head out after work I can easily top up my makeup! My favourite at the moment is Daniel Sandler Lipstick in red (number 4). It's perfect for adding a ...

Step 1 Prep the nails with a base coat and once completely dry, apply your chosen ...

Little Mix are certainly upping the style stakes at the moment with each of them carrying their own unique style.

We loved her latest look so we've put together a tutorial on how to get the look yourself. Step 1 Start by adding I&K clip in hair extensions.

It has been on the catwalk, in magazines and at all of the major celebrity events. What am I talking about here? Ombre hair!

From the ‘on purpose roots’ look, it has evolved to even more gradual colour changes with the popular dark brown roots flowing to medium brown in the middle and down to ...
