Wedding season is such a fun time but whether you’re a guest or a member of the wedding party it can also take a bit of planning, especially when it comes to your look. As the day will naturally involve a lot of socialising and picture taking, it’s understandable that you would want your makeup to be on point, so deciding what products to take with you is pretty important. Here’s our list of Wedding Makeup essentials to take in your handbag, so that’s one less thing for you to worry about!
It’s wedding season which is one of our favourite times of year! All the happy people, celebration and of course champagne really puts us in an amazing mood. As a beauty brand, it’s only natural that we are interested in wedding makeup, which we are aware can be a tricky thing to master. After all, if there is ever a time when you don’t want to get it wrong then it’s your wedding day!
We wanted to source some top information on wedding day makeup for our CODERS and we decided to ask super talented makeup artist and friend of team CODE, Alex Jones. Not only is Alex a pro, she also got married herself this month so we really couldn’t think of a better person to chat to!
Who else is loving the new Wonder Woman movie? We celebrate female empowerment here at CODE so it’s super exciting to finally see a superhero film with a female lead. Leading Lady Gal Gadot is amazing in the film, she is definitely one to watch!
We were lucky enough to have a chat with the makeup artist behind Gadot’s stunning makeup in the film, the super talented Sarah Brock! Sarah is a hugely successful, award winning makeup artist who has collaborated with many a celebrity, you may have seen her artistry on the cover of OK, or Brides magazine. Head to http://www.sarahbmakeup.co.uk/ to check out her work!
This weekend just gone I was lucky enough to celebrate the beginning of summer with a trip to Parklife Festival, a two day multi genre music festival that takes place at Manchester’s Heaton Park.
Here’s some of my highlights…
We celebrate creativity and individuality. That’s why ‘Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful’ is one of our favourite phrases. We have been searching far and wide for a group of awesome people that possess those values to be part of our very own #CODECROWD.
This summer we are going to be introducing you to some seriously cool, inspirational people that we think you might want to find out more about...
As a Manchester based brand we have so much love for the area. Manchester truly is a place like no other, it has community spirit, a rich culture and is an area full of art and beauty.
As you will most likely know, Manchester was recently hit by an unimaginable tragedy. The city is in mourning for the victims and will be for a long time, but at the same time the community’s strength and refusal to be divided is inspiring many. We wanted to give you a little artistic inspiration to come and visit...
If you didn’t already know Manchester is where it’s at for everything from community spirit to music and the arts. The whole city has so much to offer but I have to say, the Northern Quarter is one of my favourite areas.
It's really difficult to write a guide to the Northern Quarter purely for the fact that there is SO MUCH to see and do. As someone who has being exploring the NQ for several years I still feel like I have only seen the tip of the iceberg! However, I still intend to tell you about this truly awesome area as I believe it's somewhere that everyone should get to see, especially if your local to Manchester. Plus I have a list of wonderful places that I love to go on about to anyone that will listen!
Whether your looking to spend a crazy Saturday night or a chilled Sunday afternoon there, there's something for everyone in Manchester's NQ. Here's my guide of places to go.
Every girl needs a little black dress. I don’t know about you but my little black dress looks 100 times better when I wear it with Spanx. So much so that it doesn’t feel right without them! They smooth everything out and allow my dress, and my body, to look the best it can possibly look, and why wouldn’t I want my killer outfit to reach its full potential?
Well what if your mascara was like a little black dress. It might look amazing on its own but is it reaching its full potential? Or does it need a pair of Spanx?
Festivals are my happy place! I love everything about them, the music, the food, the fact that your most likely going to finish the weekend with at least a couple of new friends. But I am one of those girls who panics if I don’t have my whole bedroom with me 24/7, so one thing I don’t love so much is travelling light! It’s really difficult to narrow down the items you want to take to a festival (at my first one my suitcase wouldn’t fit in the tent!) but with a few festivals under my belt I think I have mastered it. Here’s what’s going in my bag this festival season.
