WORK XMAS PARTY

Friday was my works xmas party. I think it was my favourite of the parties we've had, I've worked there 7 years now so I've been to quite a few!



I had a minor (read major!) dress dilemma mid-week. I thought the dress I had would be okay but it wasn't so I made a frantic after work trip to Debenhams on Wednesday and picked myself up this Warehouse number and all was right with the world again.

For hair I washed with my usual Aveda Camomile shampoo followed by Dove Nourishing Oil Care Express Treatment conditioner, then I towel dried and applied Tresemme Volume and Lift mousse (amazing by the way!) and blow dried upside down, then I curled it with my Babyliss Conical Wand and liberally doused my head with Tresemme Extra Hold hairspray. To fluff it up a bit I backcombed the ends a little, to add a bit more interest.

For make-up I used Mac's Prep & Prime Skin, MUFE Face & Body foundation (thank you Lydia!), a smidge of Mac's Matchmaster foundation, powdered with Mac Sheer Pressed powder, Bobbi Brown Aruba bronzer, Mac Mineralise blusher in (I have no idea because I pinched it from my mum!), brows were courtesy of my Bobbi Brown Brow palette, eyes where a mixture of Urban Decay shadows from my Naked pallette, Mac Blacktrack Fluidline, lots of Mac Zoom Lash mascara, some Kiss lashes and lips were YSL lipstick in 148 with Mac Pink Poodle lipglass on top.

When are your xmas parties ladies? What will you be wearing?
