Mummy Makeup

July 23, 2009

I love make up, I love dressing up and I LOVE SHOES! In a world where physical beauty is a priority, it can be hard to find the balance between inner beauty and outer beauty. I love this verse from the bible:

Charm can be deceiving,
and beauty fades away,
but a woman
who honors the LORD
deserves to be praised.
Proverbs 31:30 CEV

I think it is important to take care of how you look without it becoming your main focus. Below I have 2 Mummy Makeup ideas that are quick and simple to do. One for day outings and one for going out at night. This make up is designed by a Mother, for a Mother. The emphasis is making it quick, easy and effective.

NOTE: You will have to forgive my narration in the videos, it is pretty hopeless… hehe, but I think you will get the drift.

My Best Beauty Tips for Busy Mums

  • Get a tinted moisturiser with SPF
  • Buy a good foundation – trust me it will last 3 times as long so you end up paying the same in the long run
  • ALWAYS have lip gloss in your hand bag and nappy bag
  • Drink lots of water
  • Eat Well
  • I’m not going to say get plenty of sleep…. cause, that ain’t going to happen :)

Great Links
