Pantone, the colour mixing company have announced the colour for the year 2019 as “Living Coral”

The Gorgeous people at The Publicity Loft have shared their top picks of Coral/Peachy tones we can add to our make up bags.

Personally I always have Coral/Peachy tones in my kit to warm up cooler complexions, even the dullest of skins can benefit from a warm hue of the wonder that is coral!

Even if you’re not a fan of peach or Coral you’d be quickly converted but a little coral blush lightly applied to the top of your cheekbones giving you a pop of colour and a youthful glow to your skin.

Still not a fan, pop some Coral/Peach lipliner,Lipstick or Lipgloss on to get the look in a more subtle way.

I was privileged to see the preview of Penneys/Primarks Autumn Winter 2018 collection and I loved so many pieces my bank account is going to be very quickly emptied when it hits stores!

My love for animal print and anything sparkly was reignited when flicking through the rails.

Let’s Get Nude, PS…Nudes by Primark/Penneys Launch

Last week I attended the Launch of PS Nudes and it was such a good event.

Mylah Morales, the make up artist for the likes of Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez and most recently Actress Storm Reid who stars alongside Oprah Winfrey in Disney’s A Wrinkle In Time movie out in March.

I stood in awe of Mylah as she spoke to Beauty Journalist/Writer/Columnist Louise Mc Sharry about her life and her dislike of women wearing too much make up, not blending their contouring and to embrace their best assets.

Mylah demonstrated the Nudes range and the palette which is only €10 an unbelievable bargain buy and a must for your make up table as the colours are just so fab!

It was so lovely to meet Mylah and I got a pic with her and the gorgeous Jen From Matte To Metallic

I was also so delighted to meet Lisa Jordan AKA Just Jordan and we took a selfie! She’s so tiny, that accent, that hair, that smile, so lovely!

The venue Royal Hibernian Academy was transformed into a girls dream of pinkness to showcase the Nudes range in all its glory by The Publicity Loft I just loved the lighting, the music and not forgetting the mini pancakes which were yummy!

PS Nudes range will be in stores nationwide next week, predicting it’s going to sell out fast 💞💓💞

Primark’s latest PS… beauty collection, PHr, is turning its attention to giving you confidence while getting active. The 11 piece collection, Perform, Hydrate and Recover, is about looking your best while you work out and providing the skin with key functional products that care for your skin before, during and post physical activity. These efficient products help you to recover and prepare for the next stages of your day.

The collection is divided in two categories with the first half focusing on performance products and the latter ensuring that hydration and recovery periods are covered – getting you prepped for your busy daily life or simply brunch with the girls.

The PHr waterproof mascara and PHr waterproof eyeliner are everyday products, perfect for anyone heading straight from the office to a hard-core HIIT class. These handy products will make sure you’re top of your game and help avoid any sweaty selfies or post-workout panda eyes. The PHr Pressed Powder BB Cream, the PHr Concealer Sticks, and PHr Lip and Cheek Tint are all smudge proof and convenient additions to any makeup bag.

Post workout the PHr lipstick with hydration core comes in four shades and nourishes the lip to prevent dry lips, perfect for chapped lips exposed to extreme temperatures of outdoor activities or hot gyms. There is also a PHr Liquid Lip Balm for those looking for something a touch lighter. The stand out product is the PHr cooling recovery primer which helps cool your skin whilst swiftly reducing redness. It’s also the perfect primer for makeup application, making it ideal for those heading from weights to work life. The PHr Cool Setting Spray is handy not only for workout enthusiasts but as a handbag essential, cooling you down on public transport or for when the days get warmer.

The PHr ethos is that fitness and wellbeing is for everyone – whether you are totally beauty obsessed and love trying out the latest beauty innovations or you are simply a dedicated gym bunny wanting a beauty buddy to get you through your workout confidently, these products are for you!

Penneys SS2018 preview of women’s wear and accessories 

Yesterday morning I was privileged to attend the Penneys preview of their Spring Summer range and it’s fab! 


It was held in Penneys Head Office in Dublin and the place was jam packed with press. I managed to take a few pics.



















The collections are all well made and there’s a collection for everyone whether your into striped nautical, floral, denim, faux fur,faux suede or pleather. 

I snapped the collections and the feedback was people loved the Rugrats tee shirt, nod to the 90’s, sliders are staying and the cut off denim shorts. 

I’m always happy to see Spring Summer clothes just right when I’m sorting through my winter wardrobe so I see an end in sight and don’t get depressed by the dark mornings and driving home in the dark. 

So if you like what you see don’t forget to make a note of the items so you don’t forget them. 

OXO Ann-Marie ❤️
