i’ve had the tinted moisturiser which seems to last forever and the cleanser and toner is amazing on my skin type. so soft. charlotte x

pretty good but i probably could have gone in more… charlotte x

thank you! charlotte x

i wear fake tan most days and the days i don’t i’m in between applications so i’m either exfoliating or moisturising (like today!). i use a combination of loreal nutri summer lotion, garnier mist and st moriz dark mousse. charlotte x

honestly, i’m not really sure. i have quite normal skin but with the tendancy to dry out a bit so i moisturise as well as cleanse, tone and moisturise a lot before i put my make up on. i used to use smashbox photo finish primer but when i ran out i tried out elf’s primer and i found they both work out pretty well. i’ve ran out of primer now though. i use 24 hour stay maybelline foundation and usually mix it with bourjois healthy mix under pressed powder and i never ever touch my make up. i don’t even reapply during the day. charlotte x

sorry, did you ask something because i don’t think it came through. charlotte x

hi, it’s a size 8 i usually find that a lot of leather jackets on the high street are fitted anyway so i think it’s important to consider what you can fit underneath it in terms of knitwear etc. haha, thank you, i’ll try! charlotte x

i have a pair of ‘wine’ coloured jeans from topshop and i find they pair best with stone or natural colours so my trench coat and slouchy knits. charlotte x

oh god i have no idea! default killer heels, glitter, faux fur, high hemlines… charlotte x

i know i know! charlotte x

have you thought about pairing it with slipper loafer shoes? i often find that works. if not i’ve seen quite a few people pull that sort of look off with riding style black boots. charlotte x

i don’t think you could show bare legs during the day in christmas without freezing! things i’m looking for include a metallic jean, a coated or waxed jean, a printed or patterned tailored trouser, a body con midi dress which can be easily layered and a darker jewel coloured maxi skirt. just a few things! charlotte x

i think i’m probably going to try and take care of my hair a bit more, stay healthy and work harder. i don’t really do new years resolutions but they’re just some things i’ve been thinking recently. charlotte x

i tend to ask for beauty products and perfume for christmas so on top of my list is ysl black liquid eyeliner after recently running out, chloe perfume, chanel cleanser and toner.. my mam and grandma are normally really good at sussing me out! charlotte x

i didn’t think i’d be as easily sucked in by the glitz and glitter that the high street produces every christmas but i’m finding it pretty hard to resist this year. i especially love those oversized sequins as seen at marc jacobs and prada. if you’re worried about being ott i’d probably suggest maybe wearing a simple dress that suits your shape, maybe a skater style dress in a block colour - black or red? and then using your accessories to play around with it. perhaps pair an animal print http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=4312255&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208548&parent_categoryId=204484&pageSize=20 with glitter or metallic surfaces http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=4186328&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208542&parent_categoryId=208492&pageSize=200 charlotte x
