I am a huge Rimmel London fan, right from my days at the University. I find Rimmel London makeup affordable and perfect for what I need them for. My friend and I were Rimmel London junkies in uni, that was one of the major makeup brands we used back then, and we still love it.

I had the golden opportunity to try out the new Rimmel London Insta Collection, I was blown away by how amazing the products.

These makeup products have filled a massive hole in my makeup bag. I have never had a duo contour stick or a concealer palette for EVERYTHING, and now I do! This Insta Collection is the TRUTH!

Hailey Baldwin Covers ELLE UK July 2017

June 19, 2017 By in Magazine Covers Tags: , , , , , , , , , 16 Comments

The lovely Hailey Baldwin – an American model and daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin. is the cover girl for ELLE UK July 2017, and she is looking fabulous on it.

I really like this cover. I think Hailey Baldwin looks amazing on it. Her hair and makeup is so beautiful. ELLE got this cover right!

Her interview with ELLE Magazine sounds like it would be a great read. This is my first time hearing of her, and I am curious to know more. Here are some excerpts from her interview –

On her modelling career

‘I work my a** off to make what I have and to prove that this is what I want to do,’ Baldwin tells ELLE. ‘I want to be a model. I don’t think I would be where I am if people didn’t see something in me.

I put all my modelling [photos] on my Instagram because I’m showing it to people. It’s not about me getting paid to model for things on Instagram – of course, sometimes we do get paid for things we do for Instagram and Twitter – but there is a line of calling someone an Insta model or an Insta star.’

Good to know she is working hard to make a name for herself.

On her love life

During ELLE’s interview, YouTube megastar Cameron Dallas sits on a table behind with Baldwin’s parents – it was the first time they had met. ‘He’s not my boyfriend yet. Technically, I’m single’ she says, but the meet is making her jittery. ‘It makes me so nervous, oh my God. I don’t want my mom to be like, “So…”‘ she says, flicking her head between their table and where ELLE is sat. The burgeoning relationship won’t be a shock to Mum and Dad, though. ‘My parents know everything. I’ve cried to them and been like, “I don’t understand why he blah blah blah…” And then my mom always says, “You need to show a lot of grace and be patient and forgiving.” And then there’s my dad, who’s like, “You know he’s never going to change.”‘

 

You can read the full interview in this new issue, hitting the newsstands 20th July 2017.
