October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and as a woman in my 30’s, having seen first hand the impact this disease can have, I think it’s so important to highlight it and encourage women to check their breasts regularly. So, to get everyone in the pink mood I decided to share a few of my favourite pink make-up items…

First up in this gorgeous Bobbi Brown Metallic Eyeshadow in Pink Pearl. Gorgeous all over your lid for a pretty daytime look or for a night time smokey look use it as a highlighter in the inner corner of your eye.

MAC do fabulous pink lipsticks ranging from soft & girlie to dark & bold. There’s a pink to suit your every mood and I think every girl should have a gorgeous pink lipstick in their make-up bag!

I adore NARS blushers, they have a great range of colours and this gorgeous pink is called Desire. LOVE it!

I couldn’t live without my Tweezerman and this limited edition, white tweezers with pink crystals has been created especially for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It not only looks gorgeous but part of the sales will go towards cancer research.

Two of my favourite brands of nail polish, Essie and Rimmel have lots of fabulous pinks to choose from and these two, Angora Cardi (Essie) and Portobello Pink (Rimmel) are perfect for adding a pop of pink to your look. A lot of people only wear pink in the summer but I love it all your round.

Back to MAC again and this is my favourite lip gloss called Ample Pink. I carry this everywhere with me, perfect when I need a quick pop of colour to my make-up during the day. I also love using it on my brides because it suits everyone and smells fab too.

Lastly, these make-up brush sets from Sigma are the perfect way to inject that extra bit of colour into your make-up bag. I love the case and not only do they look good but the brushes are great quality, just as good and a fraction of the price of the more expensive brands.

So, that’s it… think pink ladies 🙂 and look after yourselves and each other!
