Somewhere along the way, did we lose the art of a good old-fashioned lipstick touch-up?

Or did we just start worrying too much about what everyone else thinks? 😂

Anyway, here’s me in Washington Square Park, minding my own business, causally reapplying my lipstick in broad daylight. As one should. 💋

And yes, that’s our new Lilac Lumi-Zoom mirror making a little appearance. 💜

The lipstick is AUDREY, which has unfortunately left the building (sold out!), but a VERY small number will be back mid-November. You’ll need quick fingers for that one.

And if you love Audrey, I have a feeling you’ll get along rather nicely with our ICON gloss, also making its return next month.

Apparently November is bringing a few old flames back into our lives. 💄

A little glossip never hurt anybody. 💋

Some familiar faces. Some new troublemakers. And a comeback that’s been a long time coming.

We’ve been keeping these beauties to ourselves for far too long.

Shall we start spilling the glossip? 👀

Hotel mirrors and I have trust issues. 💋

One last makeup check, a little extra lighting, a closer inspection than strictly necessary… and then I’m off.

Some girls pack an extra pair of shoes. I pack a magnifying light up mirror.

Priorities. 🥂

My little Melli light-up mirror has travelled more than some of my luggage lately.

A little brush appreciation moment. 🖌️✨

After almost 30 years of painting faces for TV, film and everything in between, I can tell you one thing…

Sometimes it’s not your makeup. It’s what you’re applying it with.

The right brush can make a very ordinary Tuesday feel like you’ve got your own makeup artist on speed dial.

And frankly, we all deserve that little luxury. 🤎

Does it glide on? YES.
Can you use it on your waterline? ABSOLUTELY. 💚

The two questions we get asked the most about our Gel Eyeliners. And for good reason.

Nobody wants an eyeliner that drags, skips or needs a wrestling match to get some colour on.

Ours? Creamy, rich pigment that glides on beautifully, even along the waterline.

✨ Applies beautifully to the waterline
✨ Water-resistant & long-lasting

My first morning in NYC and apparently the jet lag came with a side of excessive yapping. 😂🗽

It was my one and only full free day in New York until a dinner and drinks with the Muthership Creator Studio crew so the plan was a very natural makeup look before heading off for a wander around the West Village. No real agenda, just a day of getting wonderfully lost & finding Hungry Llama Cafe & Restaurant which did not disappoint 👌🏻 and met so many doggos along the way on my walk 🐶

I’m sharing a few makeup tips and tricks I’ve picked up over a few decades as a makeup artist, with several completely unrelated conversations thrown in for free.

I stayed at Moxy Chelsea on my last trip and loved it so much I came back for the first part of my trip . Those enormous windows and all that glorious natural light! A makeup artist’s dream. I could quite happily set up camp here.

Anyway, grab a coffee, possibly a snack. There’s a perfectly good natural makeup tutorial hiding somewhere amongst all the yapping. ☕️💄

And if you can hear sirens in the background, that’s just New York providing the complimentary soundtrack. No trending audio required. 🚒�

I’ve got a suitcase full of New York stories I haven’t shared yet. Come find me on TikTok for more of the behind-the-scenes. 🗽

Weddings, parties, long lunches, dinner dates… suddenly the calendar has a social life again. 💋

And naturally, we think a new lipstick should be invited.

Say hello to Love Potion 💄

A fresh lip colour has a funny little way of making an outfit feel brand new. Even the one you’ve worn 47 times.

So, where are we going first? 💄✨
