HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR INSPIRED PHOTO SHOOT WITH CLICK 79 PHOTOGRAPHY

This is another photo shoot that I have done with the talented photographer Lyndsay Roberts of Click 79 Photography.  Lyndsay is a 1st degree qualified photographer specialising in fashion, studio and wedding photography.  We all had a great time working on this Hollywood inspired photoshoot!

For the hair I decided on a up style that was sophisticated and elegant yet still looked contemporary.  Most of the time with make-up you would go with either strong eyes or strong lips, but there are times when you can get away with both.  This is the type of make-up when you can get away with both as it would usually be worn for a glamorous event in the evening.

SPACE NK CHESTER FAVOURITE PRODUCT CHALLENGE

I work with the most lovely ladies in Space NK Chester, so decided to set them a challenge!  I asked them to choose one product that is there ultimate favourite product in the store, you would think this would be easy, but if you think about all the amazing products and brands Space NK sell it is a very hard challenge!
Beauty Advisor - Amy Jones
Eve Lom -  Cleanser

For Amy's favourite product she picked Eve Lom's hero cleanser!
Amy says 'Eve Lom cleanser is one of my favourite skincare products.  It leaves my skin thoroughly cleansed unlike any other cleanser I have tried without a drying or tight feeling.  I love that I don't have to use a separate eye make-up remover as it effortlessly melts away even the smokiest of eye make-up.  I have also found it to be very balancing on my skin clearing up breakouts  and areas of congestion.  It also acts as an exfoliator and toner.  For me it turns cleansing into a luxurious and indulgent step in my skincare routine.  I will use it forever!' 

Store Manager - Jane Meeker
Diptique - Figuier Colour Sented Candle

I was not at all surprised that Jane picked a candle as she absolutely loves them and there is nothing she does not know about candles!  Here is what Jane has to sat about her favourite candle!

'Diptique to me shouts luxury and decadence.  I adore the candles especially figure which you can buy in a beautiful green glass jar.'

Beauty Advisor - Emily Jones
Kevyn Aucoin - The Celestial Powder in Candlelight
Emily says 'I love Kevyn Aucoin Celestial Powder because it gives a lovely glow to the skin.  Its great as it suits lots of different skin tones and gives a sheen to the cheekbone rather than a glitter effect.  It can instantly give your skin radiance and pick me up thats why its my favourite product in Space NK'
Assistant Store Manager - Diane Nicole
Oribe - Colour Shampoo & Conditioner
I let Diane have two favourite products as they do complement each other perfectly and this is why she loves them
'My favourite product is Oribe colour shampoo and conditioner as it revitalises your colour and keeps the hair looking shiny.  Gives you a just stepped out of the salon look and feel.' 

This might give you some good ideas for Christmas presents or what to put on your own Christmas list!
