5-minute face!

[Saffron]

Following on the birth of Little Saff nearly a year ago, my make-up routine went from absolutely beautiful, to absolutely abominable! Five minutes is REALLY all I can spare for make-up, and I'd like to learn how to make the most of it. I asked my friend and very talented make-up artist Fiona Tanner about doing capsule parties for a 5-min face. Here's her reply:

'I can do ?15.00 per person up to 4 people and ?12 for 6 or more. I can bring a small kit. If the ladies bring their make up bags then I can advise on each-if they explain their routine I can offer helpful hints- It takes about 20-30mins per person. -Best Fiona '

A couple of friends have already expressed interest, and I'm happy to host at mine. Get back to me with your thoughts (wk day/wknd?, morning/afternoon?) if you want to join the fun. :-)

How's Wednesday the 15th daytime (little 'uns welcome)...? Give me a PM and we can narrow down some hours that work well for everyone! xxx

Hi all.

This is confirmed with Fiona for Wednesday 15th December at 2pm.

I will get back to everyone on the PMs with all the details shortly, and if anyone else is interested, let me know. There is still space for one or two more.

Just a note to say thanks for joining the fun, ladies. We were a small group in the end, so Fiona was able to take extra time with everyone. It was so much nicer than a slap and dash at the counter in Selfridges!

If anyone is interested in organising their own capsule party with Fiona, or looking for bridal make-up etc, Fiona's website is http://www.ftmakeuplondon.com/.

I went to the 5 minute face party at Annas-thanks so much for organising and hosting at yours

Fiona was absolutely brilliant-she identified all the areas I wanted to focus on without me even saying anything and took time to explain correct application techniques.My husband said I looked 10 years younger after the makeover(with a bit of prompting )and had kissable lips !Well worth the money and a very enjoyable experience.

I can recommend eyelash extension! They last for weeks without the need for mascara so u can actually be ready as soon as you wake up! and just add some blusher and lipstick if you like. so thats 2 minute Face!

I have had it done myself and it was fantastic! it lasted for 6 weeks even while i was on holiday swimming!!! it was ?60 for a full set. If your interested call/text 07956 017 595 or email [email protected] you can also visit www.extensionsrus.webs.com to have a look at the website.

I noticed Rhea already has a recommendation on here under Eyelash extensions. :))

This sound great, I'm sorry I missed it. Is there anyone else who missed out and might be interested in organizing another one?

[Saffron]

There were deffo a few people interested who couldn't make it round mine. Maybe start a new thread, so people know you're up for another get-together? I'm sure Fiona would be very happy to make a date for you. (Eyelash extensions sounds cool too!)

All the best :-)
