Hey Gorgeous Girls and Guys,
Just a quick one to keep you up to date with some fab trends at the moment…I’ve been scouring the internet, magazines and fashion houses for the latest gossip about what’s hot and what’s not!
HOT:
Animal print – Rargh! The rule is that anything Animal is in…but don’t mix too many prints if you’re wearing them. For a more subtle look why not treat yourself to one of the fabulous Jessica Gold Spotted Gift Purse filled to the brim with gorgeous nail care mini’s. Or how about a Tweezerman Leopard, Zebra or Crocodile print Slant Tweezer? Either way your accessories will be the talk of the town, and you’ll look fabulous.
80’s Fluro – Bright, bold and brash…oh and shoulder pads…take the look as far as you want perhaps some hot Essie Nail Polish in Secret Stash or Escapades.
Or how about reviving the 80’s big hair-do with the brand-new (and absolutely fabulous) Tigi Catwalk Your Highness Root Boost?
Sexy Chic – From vampy volume to wonderful waves it’s all about looking sleek and sexy this season. I’m loving the new BaByliss Pro Porcelain Triple Barell Waver in Hot Pink and also BareMinerals Big Tease Mascara.
NOT…So Why Not Try:
Baggy Clothes – This season is tight and sexy, think knee high-boots and leggings!
Boho – Sorry Sienna this season is all about the Rock Chic – welcome Pixie Lott and The Veronicas. Get the rock chick look with a little help from the La Biosthetique Smoky Eye Collection.
Matte Make-Up – Bring on the sparkle! And what better way to fight the drab dull winter than with the BareMinerals Sweet Obessions Gift Set containing nine fabulous colours all with a hint of sparkle?
As always stay gorgeous,

Hey Gorgeous Girls and Guys,
My friends call me Mazpie, because like a Magpie I am attracted to all that glitters and glistens – jewellery shops are a particularly dangerous place to take me! So you can imagine my delight when the strictly Limited Edition Tweezerman Swarovski Crystal encrusted Slant Tweezers landed on my desk…I’ll let you into a secret…I actually ‘whooped’ in delight!
These stunning tweezers have been encrusted all over for spectacular glamour, and whether you are a sultry temptress or a pure princess the two varieties allow you to choose your perfect partner.
The Black Magic is decorated in black sparking Swarovski crystals whilst the Divine White is decorated in gorgeous glistening white Swarovski crystals, both are presented in a delightful metallic silver pouch, which sits inside a gorgeous Tweezerman gift box. As you would expect from a Tweezerman Slant Tweezer, the tweezer tips are hand-finished for precision and professional results – that’s why Tweezerman have been the favoured choice of make-up artists, celebrities and beauty professionals, the world over, for the last 25 years.
So whatever your decision, treat yourself…or make a big hint to a special someone!
As always stay gorgeous,

Oh little uno-brow how you make me sad,
Little uno-brow you shouldn’t be there,
People think me bad because little uno-brow you have so much hair!

Ok so maybe I’m not quite in the same boat as the ‘Uno-Brow’ lot, but I can tell you I inherited bushy eyebrows from my grandmother, and I face a constant struggle to keep them looking neat and tidy. But one little tool that keeps my brows gorgeous is the Tweezerman Slant! It’s almost fool-proof.
Simply line the slanted edge up with the hair you want to pluck, squeeze and pull…et voila! And a little secret between you and me….the Tweezerman Slant is also great at ‘helping’ you in-between those bikini waxes too!
With a huge range of great colours and sizes (check out the Slant Mini’s) you’re spoilt for choice. Also whilst your browsing, make sure you stock up on the hugely popular Tweezerman After Tweeze Soothing Lotion (Our price £7.20), it works wonders on reducing redness and irritation after tweezing.
Next time – Gorgeous sunless tanning; how to not look like an Oompa Lumpa.
Stay Gorgeous,
