I made a little video after I had been pulling at my lashes (that fateful week!) to cheer myself up, and I decided that I would go a bit ‘luxe’ and crack out the Sisley products! I love the Holiday palette with it’s wonderful bright blue against the silvery shades, and I decided to do a bit of a crazy eye. Well, perhaps not that crazy compared to some of the makeup looks that you see people creating on YouTube, but crazy enough if you forget that you have it on and catch a bus into town at 11am on a Monday!

Whatever, it cheered me up. The tinted moisturiser (with the usual gasp-inducing price-tag of £58) and the Sun Glow Gel (£47.50) created a really gorgeous, flawless base that would work in all seasons, and the silvery eye colours with a shot of blue reminded me of the evil snow queen from Narnia! All very good fun, and very festive.

Eye shadow palette, £54.50 from Sisley.
