4.95 for TWO blush formulas? MUA Cosmetics have done it again 👏🏼

The new Colour Play Blush Duos give you the best of both worlds - a creamy blush for that fresh, skin-like flush and a powder to build, set or layer depending on the finish you want.

Enriched with Vitamin E + jojoba oil, vegan and just £4.95 each.

This is what I love about MUA - affordable never means compromising on quality. Really beautiful formulas that perform without the premium price tag. 🤍

All of the shades are now available to shop at or on MUAstores.co.uk

I could have tried to be everything to everyone… but I’m so glad I didn’t.

Over the years I’ve learnt that there’s so much power in knowing what you’re good at - and leaning all the way into it.

Soft. Glowy. Timeless. Skin that still looks like skin. 🤍

Trends will come and go, but this will always be my kind of makeup.

And after 15 years of doing this, I think trusting that little voice was one of the best things I could have done for my artistry. ✨

Aussie glam just hits different 🤎☀️

Bronzed skin, warm tones, soft definition and that perfect pinky-brown lip.

Glowy, effortless and just the right amount of glam ✨

Would you wear this look?

A little behind-the-scenes of getting Paige ready ✨

One thing I always say is that beautiful makeup isn’t about piling products on-it’s about building them up in the right order.

Skin prep. Thin layers. Blending. Stepping back and reassessing. Then adding just enough.

The final look might seem effortless, but it’s all the little layers underneath that make it last, photograph beautifully, and still look like you.

Bonus points for me and the little assistants making an appearance in the background 🤍

What part of a makeup appointment would you love to see more of-the skin prep, product choices, or finishing touches? 🤍

What she said in the first 30 seconds changed the entire look.

One of the biggest misconceptions about makeup is that it’s all about the products.

It’s not.

Before I picked up a single brush, Paige told me how she wanted to look and feel, what she usually likes, and what she definitely doesn’t.

Those details shape every decision I make.

Because great makeup isn’t about copying a photo or following a trend.

It’s about understanding the person sitting in the chair and creating a look that feels like them—just elevated.

The finished result wasn’t an accident. It was built around that conversation.

And that’s why no two faces ever leave my chair looking the same.

One of the biggest makeup mistakes I see? Adding more coverage when what you actually need is more balance.

A little skin prep, strategic correction and a touch of colour will almost always look fresher than a full face on camera.

Less product. Better placement. Bigger impact. 🙏🏼

I'm no wavy girl expert but at the moment this is the routine I follow. I also only use heat on my hair maybe once or twice a week max.

Hope it helps ❤️🙏🏼

Great bridal makeup isn’t about adding glow. It’s about creating dimension, balance and skin that photographs beautifully from every angle. ✨
