Illamasqua Sob is one of my favourite blushes… the creme texture is a delight and practically blends itself. The colour is a cool, frivolous candy pink and once on, it doesn’t budge. Not even in this heat!
Too hot for much makeup…

Hey Gemma! Thank you xxx
yeah love the eyelashes, I always hit the skin on my lower lashline when i tried to put mascara there or otherwise i put a big blob and it looks horrible! its horrible and rainy in Ireland so enjoy the weather!
I always wipe off as much mascara as possible before attempting the lower lashes, nothing worse than clumps! Yay for rain! 😛 xx
That blush is lovely! You look so pretty!
Thanks Gio! xxx
