Thanks to everyone one of you for watching my videos and reading my blog because not to sound all cheesy but it wouldn't be possible without you guys!!

How to style a maxi dress - Video on themakeupchair
How I wear a maxi dress!
Primark Dress - €2 (On sale!!)
They don't have this one any more but the new ones are cute and are about €11 and they have pockets and I love that I think all dresses should have pockets :)
White cover up - €8 (I think)
You can wear a normal lenght one too, but I think this works better with this style dress
Primark Ring - €1
They have these is the same part of the shop there are a few there :)
Its Friday!! This week I thought I might change it up a little instead of my favourite foundation or blush, this week I though I would do my favourite product with in a brand!
Here are some of my favourite ELF (Eyes Lips Face) product!
Here are just a few of my favourites I think I could be there all day naming all my favourites and I did leave a few things out that you ladies already know like the press powder, the HD powder, the mineral infused primer to name but a few :)
These are the ones that came into my head when I though of my favourites so here they are;
Lily Cole has recently collaborated with The Body Shop as she becomes the global ambassador for the brand. I was super excited to try this because Lily has such a light complexion I though Hey! finally makeup for us pale gals! :)
What I do like is that it doesn't just seem to be for the lighter skin tones but for a mixture! Take the lip and cheek tints - Comes in two shade; Sheer Pink (Pinch Me Pink) and Sheer Peach (Crazy for Coral) Both these shade would work on a variety of skin and if I ever came out with a makeup collection myself a peach and a pink blush would differently be a starting point.
Crazy in Coral
€15 - Top bare lips. Bottom swatch.
Review:
*The large dome works perfectly for easy application on the cheek not so much for the lips. (A bit big)
*The colour is sheer and great for those "I don't wanna wear makeup but I do" days.
*Felt kind of greasy at the start and I worried about apply it on the cheek but it blended nicely perhaps not totally suitable for those with super oily skin though!
*I can see why this would be her favourite piece. On her skin I think this colour would be amazing but on darker skin I still think this would be awesome :)
*If you are a fan of multi-purpose then this product would be great option.
Liquid eyeliner in violet, €13.95
Once again pretty great pick - this purple liner is just the right tone to work on different skin types from very light to dark. Also purple is one of those shades that work on so many different eye colours! Good choice Lily!!
Review:
*Take a little time to set at first but once its sets it SET! *The felt tip is definitely easy to use!
*The colour has a slight metallic finish which is cute and fun!
Top left - Think Pink Bottom - Go Violet Top right - Live Lilac Bottom right - Tint it Pink
Coolest thing is you can take the cudes out and move them around, at first I thought they were pigments but they are pressed! Just lovely love them!
Review:
Think Pink - Not sure why its called "Think Pink" its not very pink, more coppery shade but that's in a name. Anyway its super cute I love it prefect for green and brown eyes.
Live Lilac -This is the sheerest of the shade on my skin anyway, on darker skin it would probably show up more. As with all the shades its like silk to work with.
Go Violet - Hmm...not sure about violet its a burgundy/aubergine shade but you know that's what she wanted to call it that's cool. This is my second favourite shade actually I LOVE it! Can't wait to do a smoky eye with it!!
Tint it Pink - Champagne with a hint of pink! This one is my favourite. Great highlight shade. Once again shimmy, silky and truly lovely to work with.
So my mum was free and I though "hey lets do your makeup yay!" So I created this kind special look. If you want a more natural look let me know. We might have a haul video coming soon too!
