Prep has begun for the big event...


So countdown has begun to my first ever black tie event! To say I'm nervous is an understatement. I have my dress sorted but struggling to match shoes with it. I'm no fashionista so I got help from Maeve in Love Cherish for my dress and after seeing her this evening on @expose I'm delighted to support the smaller boutique. I love dressing up and being pampered but can't always afford it. So these are my cheat products for in between salon treatments. Firstly skin preparation for tanning later on in the week.

I adore the Soap and Glory range. It leaves skin so soft and tan seems to like it aswell as my tan lasts so much longer when I use it. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water is an amazing product. It not only cleanses skin,removes all eye makeup and lip, it also soothes the skin. My top tip is if you have a rash from using you razor, soak a pad and apply it to the skin. Yes it will sting but redness is reduced quicker with the soothing sensation.
Another great product is the sun-kissed tint body lotion with no streak long wear technology. This keeps my @cocoabrown tan lasting a lot longer. It is a wash off formula but when using with your own tan product makes it last a lot longer.

Another favourite of mine is Aveeno. There are so many varieties in the range but my favourite is the one with Shea butter. It's more nourishing to the skin. The price varies from place to place but as my followers know I work in a pharmacy and we stock a lot of these products. We have Aveeno at €3.99 at the moment which is a bargain!
It's my goal in the next coming months to up my beauty game as I'm not one for making the effort. Most mornings I would leave the house with only using a simple cleaning wipe! Most nights not even taking off my makeup. I would call myself a lazy beauty expert..I have signed up for a makeup course which I will blog about during the week so I'm hoping to become no.1 makeup artist in the world!
Make sure to follow me on Snapchat mylifetheevent as I will be sharing all my experiences on there.
Check out my facebook page also with great competitions on there.
Love you all and thanks for the support
