Family Time >
I’m currently on holiday with my family so felt the below was very appropriate for today’s Hump Day message.
So true! For almost 8 years I lived on the other side of the world, away from my family. Since returning to Europe in 2010 I have loved being closer to home and being able to spend quality time with my family. It has realise definitely made me; you only have one family and they offer unconditional love.
I am a very blessed girl to have them ♥
I hope you all have a fantastic Hump Day! xoxo
The Super ‘O’ Glow – NARS Illuminator
“RADIANT. SHIMMERING. SEDUCTIVE”
No I am not talking about myself in those three words; I am talking about NARS Illuminators! :)
“NARS Illuminators are a collection of light-reflecting liquids that glide on to refresh the skin, enhance the complexion and create a shimmering incandescence”. These great multi-use illuminators come in the shades Laguna, Orgasm, Copacabana and Super Orgasm.
♥ Silky, shimmering highlighters that create instant radiance and luminosity
♥ The translucent weightless formula makes skin look glowing and refreshed
♥ Flattering on all skins and dermatologist tested
♥ Can be worn alone or mixed with moisturizer, primer or liquid foundation to provide a subtle luminescence!
I have the NARS Illuminator in the shade ‘Super Orgasm’…
Super Orgasm is a gorgeous peachy liquid infused with gold shimmers to give you a dewy glow.
The illuminators are not marketed as a blusher so don’t expect it to look like the Orgasm blush (which is one of my all-time-fave beauty products). The illuminators are very blend-able so can be used all over the face and even on the body. I think it looks absolutely stunning on the cheekbones, collar bone and your decollate for a sexy, chic look.
It may seem quite pigmented at first swatch, but don’t worry it blends out very easily once on your cheeks! One quick tip: Give the tube a little shake to make sure it is all blended before applying.
A tiny bit of this illuminator goes a long way so the 30ml tube will last you ages.
I like to apply this with my fingertips by patting a small amount of Super Orgasm onto my cheek bones, and bring it downward for a radiant, healthy glow. Or I mix mix a small dot into my foundation to add instant warmth with a slight shimmer to my complexion. 
NARS Illuminators are available online here or at your local NARS counter at £22 for 30ml.
Do you have any of the NARS Illuminators and if so how do you like to wear yours? xoxo
