Well here we are LOCKDOWN! I hope you’re all doi Well here we are LOCKDOWN! I hope you’re all doing ok?
I’ve been thinking about what I’m going to do over this time period and how to get the most out of it.
Being the final 6 months of my PhD, I will have to start writing my thesis now instead of later but to break that time up with more fun things (not that science isn’t fun 🙄). I’m thinking baking, play the piano and experimenting with makeup! It doesn’t matter that no one is going to see my makeup or hear me play, I’m doing it for me but at the same time I’m not going to force myself to do to anything I don’t feel like or feel pressured to learn something new or start something big just because we have this time. 
I think it’s important to take a break and reset without anything or anyone sucking your energy. Only do things that you really want to and help you feel better now and for the future when this is over.
What are your plans for lockdown?
For me makeup is art. Your face is the canvas and For me makeup is art. Your face is the canvas and the fact you can take any colour/finish/texture and create something that completely reflects your personality and mood is amazing and yes maybe it also fuels my need to have so many pretty palettes!! The @jackieaina @anastasiabeverlyhills eyeshadow palette is incredible! The colours are soooooo pigmented but still really wearable. It’s like a work of art itself.
What’s your favourite ABH palette?

#ad | For someone who loves makeup, if you saw me #ad | For someone who loves makeup, if you saw me on a day-to-day basis, you’d have absolutely no idea! There’s enough to do in the mornings before work without having to spend half an hour doing up your face. However, when I do wear makeup, even just a little, I feel more confident, put together and ready to tackle the day. 
That’s why I’m loving @Primark.Beauty to create a super quick, everyday look to help me look glowing and more importantly, at really affordable prices.

Who else loves earrings?! I really need to wear th Who else loves earrings?! I really need to wear them more often because 1. Jabbing them through the piercing that has been empty for months is no fun and games 😂 and 2. They just elevate your look to the next level!! Seriously, whether they’re long, studs, gold, sparkly, colourful, patterned, they make me feel so put together. 2020 is my year for accessorising!
Gifted| Back to work and I’m really not here for Gifted| Back to work and I’m really not here for it! What I am here for is these natural Wispies eyelashes from @ardellbeauty. I do love false lashes but because I don’t have a lot of lid space, I find they always look heavy and unnatural on me so I give up and they get shoved in a drawer. That’s why I was dubious at first with these but the second I put them on, I fell in love. The natural style adds volume to my lashes without looking heavy and really do pass as being my own, even in person!! They’re easy to put on as the band is nice and flexible and stay put throughout the day. These are my lashes for sure! Have you tried Ardell lashes before?

The World’s Largest Lush Store – Liverpool

When you hear the words World’s Largest, you know it’s going to be good right? I mean no one could say the world’s largest pizza or world’s largest bed is a bad thing. So when I heard whispers surrounding the opening of the world’s largest Lush store, I knew it was time to get excited. Three whole floors and 1,380 square meters of vibrant colours, fresh scents and upbeat sounds await. Welcome to Lush Liverpool – the largest Lush in the world!

Never mind Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, this place is a real life fantasy factory and a beauty lover’s dream. Whether you’ve come to stock up on some essential Lush bath bombs, fancy treating yourself to a treatment or want to try something new, this is the place to be.

Get your Flower Fix

The second you enter you’re greeted with that familiar scent of essential oils, fresh ingredients and a florist. Wait, what? Yup you heard me, the Lush store at Liverpool is the only one to have a permanent florist filled with locally sourced and seasonal bouquets. As well as potted plants, you can choose from a selection of flowers to put inside a giant bath bomb and create your own personalised bath experience. They’re even wrapped in 100% compostable packaging to keep your bouquets safe for their journey home. The perfect environmentally-friendly flower fix.

Makeup Madness

As a self-confessed makeup addict, I love to try new products and the entire makeup range at Lush Liverpool has my interest piqued like never before. More than ever I am aware of my impact on the environment and my personal plastic consumption. My makeup products have always been one of those things I’ve accepted as being overly packaged but Lush are here to say no more and offer everything you need to start your own eco-friendly makeup collection.

From naked foundation, refillable vegan lipsticks to package-free highlighting sticks to get you glowing for the beauty gods, this is makeup with a difference. You can even book in with a professional makeup artist to find your perfect everyday look or go glam with a more dramatic finish for an evening out.

Lush care about haircare

It’s time to get this mane in order at Lush’s first in-store HairLab. With over fifty new haircare products, including thirty exclusive items, the HairLab provides cuts, treatments and styling that are tailored to your locks and lifestyle.

The hair technicians at Lush identify the most suitable products and treatments to get your locks in tip top condition and provide exactly what your hair needs. As a naturally curly-haired gal, it’s great to see a whole range of products designed to enhance my curls and cater to all different hair types and styles. Why not try one of the exclusive hair pods at the infusion bar or spend some time relaxing in the lush green surroundings of the styling area, where you could be fooled into thinking you’re on a beautiful tropical getaway.

Time for a pick me up

I think we can all agree shopping is thirsty work, that’s why Lush Liverpool also has its very own tea and coffee bar. Simply bring along a reusable cup or purchase one at the bar and pick from the variety of hot drinks and vegan milks on offer.

Why not sip your coffee in the perfume library and let yourself unwind to the eclectic sounds of Lush’s music collection. Learn about perfumery, aromatherapy and essential oils from the large selection of books recommended by the CEO of Lush and gain an insight into the inspiration behind your favourite products. It would be rude not to try out the fine fragrances whilst you relax and you never know you might even find your new signature scent!

The Lush Spa

Need an escape from the hustle and bustle of the world? Six treatment rooms await you inside the Lush spa to help you fit a little bit of calm into a busy day/week/month/life. The second you step through the spa doors, you’re met with serene atmosphere with gentle, relaxing music to help you unwind.

Whether you’re after a bit of me time or fancy a pamper with your pals, the Lush spa can do it all. Why not try the exclusive Shop, Don’t Drop treatment, only available at Lush Liverpool or one of the many wonderful spa treatments that will make you feel like a whole new person.

Lush at Liverpool is more than just your average Lush. Imagine starting your day with a facial and full body massage, followed by hair styling and a makeover all accompanied by a lovely cuppa. From head to toe, there is a product or treatment available for you as well as many exclusive and classic favourites to try at home. There’s even a party area complete with musical jellies and a bath bomb selfie wall! Lush, Liverpool is not just a shop, it’s a full on sensory experience.
