Happy Halloween!

Hope you like my new Halloween makeup!!

I haven't done one of these for a while, due to one thing or another...

I think this look pretty much sums up what grieving feels like. Up one minute and down the next   Early days…

I really enjoyed doing this and I didn't feel cringey posting it either! It was very therapeutic doing it and I hope to do more, when I find time...

Just an update to those of you who read my Menopause and HRT blog.  I don't know if you have heard or seen on the TV that the Menopause and support services bill has been passed in the House of commons on Friday!! MP Carolyn Harris was the wonderful lady who made it all happen, (together with lots of amazing other ladies), such as Diane Danzebrink, who I have had the pleasure of speaking with on numerous occasions, Dr Louise Newson, who is my Menopause specialist, Davina McColl, Daniella Frostrop, Liz Earle, Penny Lancaster, and not to mention all of the amazing ladies, and others who had shared the petition to Make menopause matter!!

So, the first part has been passed in England and what has happened is HRT is now free for the WHOLE YEAR! in England, (apart for paying just the once, so just a single charge for a full year HRT!)

The task force is also going to look into GP training and workplace and education.  This is such wonderful news and its long overdue. The revolution has started!

Here is my blog if you didn't read it -

Bookings for 2022 and 2023 are coming in thick and fast! It's been a very busy year, and I am very proud to have been able to work on all but one of my weddings this year, due to my Mum passing away in July.

Thank you for all of your kind words of support and encouragement, they really do mean a lot to me.  Thank you to those of you that have been especially kind, compassionate and understanding.  I really do have the best clients, I am very lucky. You all spur me on, you really do!

2022 is now nearly fully booked with wedding work.  I am also going to be busy with my studio work - so makeup lessons are going to be something I am going to be focusing on next year and I am going to be changing them a bit, so watch this space!..

I am just awaiting another batch of my very popular makeup brushes, so if you would like a set, then please contact me as soon as possible as I won't be putting another order in until Jan/Feb time now.

They come beautifully packaged...

 

I will also be still selling my Re-touch kits when my Brides/makeup guests/clients for makeup lessons come for their makeup trials.

I also have some shiny new Gift vouchers available and I think they look great!...

 

 

Gift vouchers can be purchased in any value from £50.  If you would like one, please contact me - tina@tinabrocklebank.co.uk

Heres a few clients I have worked with recently on makeup lessons and wedding work...

 

I am very much looking forward to meeting my new clients next year, and indeed, some of you will have met me before and booked me so I will of course be looking forward to meeting you again!!

Hope you are all keeping well.

For now, take care and keep warm!!
