Peaches & Cream Matt Liquid Lipstick<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In May I went to the \u2018Beauty UK\u2019 beauty trade show in the NEC Birmingham and I came across the makeup brand MUDD Beauty (founded by Alixzondra Samuda) \u2013 WOW! I think what first attracted me to their stand was the beautiful black women wearing vibrant matt lipsticks \u2013 straight away I was like, \u2018I am here for this\u2019!<\/p>\n

Alixzondra being of Indian and Jamaican ethnicity became aware of a gap in the market of high quality makeup with natural ingredients for women with deeper skin tones.\u00a0 <\/span>On 26th November 2017 Alixzondra launched \u2018MUDD Beauty\u2019.\u00a0 <\/span>The\u00a0unique name\u00a0descends\u00a0from mud being a\u00a0biological substance extracted from the earth thus representing the brand\u2019s organic and earthy approach.<\/p>\n

I literally love my lipstick (I purchased Peaches & Cream); the pigment is amazing and it lasts for hours!<\/p>\n

Alixzondra aspires to release a range of foundation to\u00a0accommodate deeper\u00a0skin tones so women of colour can have a makeup range that not only carries high quality pigments but also will look after their skin and endocrine system. \u00a0 <\/span>Alix I am here ready and waiting!<\/p>\n

My Daily Makeup Routine<\/strong><\/p>\n

I really got into makeup after becoming a Mother; the darkness under my eyes, frown lines becoming more prominent etc.\u00a0 <\/span>I am sure it was a lot more noticeable to me, but you know how we are ladies, we see flaws in ourselves that others don\u2019t!<\/p>\n

So I thought I would share my go-to products of how I freshen myself up on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

Skin Prep<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sonya Aloe Nourishing Serum<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Serums work into the skin.\u00a0 <\/span>The Forever Living products main ingredient is Aloe Vera, which as you know is amazing for the skin and body internally & externally.\u00a0 <\/span>I have used their products for approximately 6 years now.<\/p>\n

Sonya Aloe Deep Moisturizing Cream<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Moisturisers protect the top layer of the skin.<\/p>\n

Nivea for Men <\/span>Post Shave Balm<\/span><\/p>\n

I use this as my makeup primer.\u00a0 <\/span>It gives a nice tacky base for the foundation to stick to and it smells gorgeous.<\/p>\n

Foundation<\/strong> \u2013 <\/span>Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

I have been wearing this for some time now.\u00a0 <\/span>It applies so smoothly and does not feel heavy on the skin.\u00a0 <\/span>I just love it! I wear Shade 9.<\/p>\n

Concealer<\/span><\/strong> \u2013 <\/span>LA Girl Pro Conceal<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Daily I wear shade \u2018Cool Tan\u2019, however, if I want more of a highlight I wear shade \u2018Medium Beige\u2019.\u00a0 <\/span>Here is a link t their site, but you can often get authentic ones on eBay for cheaper.\u00a0 <\/span>In this vid, I am wearing Cool Tan.<\/p>\n

Setting Powder<\/span><\/strong> \u2013 <\/span>Ben Nye Neutral Set Colourless Powder<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

I have used this on all skin tones and really does make the makeup stay in place for hours.<\/p>\n

Eyebrows<\/span><\/strong> \u2013You do not always have to use a specific eyebrow product for your eyebrows.\u00a0 <\/span>I am currently using a dark brown eyeshadow from my Morphe Palette.<\/p>\n

Bronze \/ Contour<\/span> \u2013 <\/span>Mac Cosmetics \u2018Give Me Sun\u2019 mineralize skinfinish natural<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Highlight<\/strong><\/p>\n

To be honest, I don\u2019t wear highlight every day, but if I do, for just every day I normally like to wear Mac cream colour base \u2013 improper copper or the bronzy shade from my Makeup Revolution \u2018Golden Sugar\u2019 <\/span>palette,<\/a> which I am wearing in this video.<\/p>\n

Lippy<\/strong><\/p>\n

This changes daily lol! In the vid I am wearing\u00a0<\/span>Mac \u2018Bronze Shimmer\u2019<\/a>. <\/span> Probably one of my favs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
