It’s been a busy few weeks at SamKingBrowArtistry HQ!
We judged and did a live demo at WULOP (World Universal League of Permanent Make Up) Ireland. Such an amazing event with unbelievable contestants and guest speakers. We celebrated our wedding anniversary; got spoilt rotten! We went to Dublin to watch Matilda and stayed at the Marker (absolute unreal service) and we celebrated our best friends birthday and new job with a gorgeous, albeit messy afternoon in Belfast!! All in the while, I was still able to curate a list of some YES items in the basket this week!! Enjoy!!
01 - UNIQLO
I always forget about this store! Somewhere resembling Gap, this is great for more reasonable priced staple pieces. I grabbed the Cotton Volume Easy Trousers, a joop of the Cos volume barrel trousers which i adore. While they aren’t quite as thick, the slightly narrower leg makes them easy to roll for an easy, casual look.
UNIQLO COTTON VOLUME EASY TROUSERS
02 - SALOMON TRAINERS
The marmite of trainers in my opinion (the haters know who they are). These are hands down the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever put on my feet. I’m loving the OFFSPRING collab!! Can’t even believe they’re on my list.
03 —MEDICUBE PDRN STICK
100% not a hype; this stick is unreal at adding volume and hydration under the eyes, around the mouth and between the eyebrows! I’ve been using mine daily for 6 weeks and the difference is insane. (Also available on amazon if you aren’t patient)
04 — LIPBLUSH
Is it wrong to self promote?? I have had it myself for over a year and it is a GAME CHANGER. If you feel you have a lack of volume in your lips, have a look at the edges and check that it’s not a lack of colour on the actual lip tissue. IF that’s the case, it can be easily blended and replaced to make the lips appear fuller and more youthful.
04 — THE PARTY BOX CO
Two of my favourite things; a gorgeous local business woman and picky bits. Sarah does beautifully curated party boxes for girls nights, family gatherings and special occasions that are delivered to your door or can be sent as gifts.
05 - PILATES
Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a Pilates die hard! I train with best at Fitness Pilates Newtownards for years and both Cara and Kerri are absolute angels and friends. The game changer for me and what I swear is paramount in my lack of injuries or gripes at nearly 43. They will work specifically with you and encourage you to try new things. I promise when you try it, you can’t help but love it.
(Special mention also goes to Alan Turtle who has pushed me out of my comfort zone with weight training which i do in tandem with Pilates. An absolute gentleman whose knowledge of health and fitness is unreal!)
