5 min gym makeup

Gym makeup should be as quick as getting dressed ..
There is no reason for it to take long

Top tips

•Have your makeup brushes in order
I like to keep my face brushes together and eye brushes together

• Choose an easy to use foundation and a kabuki style brushes to give super quick coverage and blends to give an even coverage

•Using palettes for makeup are ideal as this gives you choice,
all your eyeshadows are together in one palette and this means you don't have to run around looking a highlighter or a blending colour ...

•my main advice would be to define the lash line with a dark shadow and a flat liner brush or an angled brush this adds definition to the eyes with out gel or liquid eyeliner .

Products I used are from www.fanaticcosmetics.com

Please back up you laptop / computer / phones

Hey guys
Happy Sunday to you all hope you are all having a lovely weekend .
I just want to do a small post on backing up your laptop.
In January we got a new laptop my other laptop was around 18 months old, but it had gotten slow due to all the added programmes and photos.

For the past 8 weeks I had a wee voice in my head saying "pull out your hard drive and back up your laptop"
With the many millions of things that get in the way of doing something as boring as backing your photos I never got round to backing up the laptop.

The day it happened was one week ago today the laptop froze it wouldn't turn of it completely lost life.. So i tried to a few simple resets but nothing happened now the laptop wouldn't turn on.. So I don't know if I had an outer body experience but I hit full system restore .. When I realised what I had done I tried to stop it but basically it was too late.
I had no choice but to do a full system restore which ment i lost Everything!!

I lost all the photos that had been taken in sculpt makeup academy since we opened, unless of course they are on a social media site, probably the hardest thing for me  was the kids photos - 18 mths of their wee lives gone.Thats not to say i dont have photos of them i do but its just heart breaking to think the photos are gone especially since they grown so quick.

The moral of the story is back up your devices and machines our lives are on the things and one wrong slip of a finger and its all gone.

have a fab day what ever you are doing
