| After my make-up lesson at Peaches & Cream. |
My boyfriend is
from Liverpool so this means I spend a fair bit of time there. I went
yesterday to see him and thought I'd book in for a make-up lesson at peaches
and cream. They do hair and make up as well as sell gorgeous jewellery , hair
accessories, makeup ,even bejewelled festival bras! Girl heaven.

| Statement Necklace and Eyelashes from Peaches & Cream (Liverpool). |
I started following
them on instagram and have even been in the store before and purchased some of
their eyelashes and a gorgeous peach statement necklace (which I wear all the
time). I then saw that they did make-up and hair lessons and really wanted one.
I saw they had a promotion on for a make-up lesson for £25 so rang up and
booked a place!
I had my lesson
with Katie and she was so lovely and showed me how to apply different products
to create a contoured look with a brown smokey eye and a peach gloss lip. I
always thought I was okay at make up but this lesson showed me how to do it
flawlessly. I was shown what brushes to use and how to hold them. The lesson
also included a free pair of their own eye lashes as part of the make up look
and a booklet with a step by step guide for when you get home and a list of all
the products used (They use a lot of MAC products as well as Lancome, Urban
Decay and their own brand, Katie was really helpful though and talked through
what products I could replace them with out of my own make-up bag at home).
I would definitely
recommended the lessons, they do one on one and group lessons as well as hair
ones too. Check out their website (they have an amazing online store that
sells their jewellery, make-up and even hair pieces!):
And Instagram.
I also bought the
brush set they used while I was there and a new quilted make up case. So
excited to use them! (The case and 12 brushes
came as a bundle for £60!!A bargain as the brushes are really good quality and
comparable to the mac ones : here on website).
I also went into primark whilst there and bought two new tops. A sport hipster esque one and a pink girly one, because I'm lazy and wanted something to throw on with jeans.

| Peaches, Primark and Debenhams purchases. |
My final purchase
was a basics naked palette from debenhams in Liverpool one . I own the naked one
palette but wanted a black and a paler beige but couldn’t justify getting the
naked 2. I though this palette was also great for my handbag!
 |
| Almost Famous Burger. |
After the shopping
spree, me and my boyfriend headed to almost famous burgers on part street. It
has a student diner vibe, with a Jukebox and crazy cocktails. We opted for a
double cheese burger, chilli fries and pulled pork fries. I'd recommend this
place plus it was cheap, 3 drinks and all that food for two for £30! Which is
okay, plus we went a bit over board with the chips (they were pretty big
portions).
The night finished
back at his watching the British bake off! Perfection.
 |
| Moose Coffee (Crosby and Liverpool). |
We'd usually get up
and head to moose in Crosby (there's one in Liverpool too) for a Canadian
breakfast, think cookie dough milkshakes and eggs benedict , pancakes and
caramel coffee with lavishes of cream. My boyfriend was working though so no
alternative breakfast for me.

| Antony Gormley- Another place - Crosby Beach. |
If anyone visitors
Liverpool I'd recommend peaches and cream (down the road from moorefields
station) and the famous burger company and moose, for something different!
There's always the docks too if you fancy a drink in a bar and a look round the
Tate, the maritime museum and the museum of Liverpool. Or if you’re in Crosby
check out the Antony Gormley ‘Another place’ – basically a load of naked iron
men statues on the beach. There's so much to do!
