Beauty Embrace your Natural

We all love a glamorous, fully made face but sometimes it is refreshing to opt for a simplistic makeup look, letting your natural beauty shine through. A natural look is also easier and faster to apply so you can have a couple extra minutes in bed! In 2018 there has been a real divide in the makeup world, brands such as Glossier have placed a huge emphasis on skincare, using makeup to add a finishing touch to your look.

You don’t have to go completely fresh faced to be effortlessly beautiful. Here’s our top tips for achieving a fresh and minimalist makeup look.

1 2

Skincare is Fundamental!

We highly recommend getting a professional facial to ensure that your skin is getting personalised care for maximum results!

Ditch the Full Coverage Foundation Foundation can be too heavy and can act like a mask. Go for a tinted moisturiser, they're easy to use and they often feature sun protection which is key to preventing wrinkles!

Embrace your natural beauty

Brow Gel is the Way to Go! Eyebrows help frame the face and make you look put together. Brow gel gives you a natural, soft look as it enhances the individual brow hairs and sets them into a desired shape.

Bronzer or Blush? It’s up to you!

Sweep bronzer under the cheekbones to add dimension to your face. Sweep blusher onto the cheeks and onto the bridge of the nose to mimic where you would naturally blush.

Effortless Lips Bold lipstick is fun but no-one likes the constant need to reapply. Choose a care free lip look by using a tinted lip balm or a clear lip gloss. Your lips will be hydrated and it doesn’t look too obvious when it has worn off, you are just left with soft lips!

Serving Looks The Hottest Autumn Trends We are now in the midst of saying goodbye to summer and hello to autumn. A new season calls for a new look, cold weather doesn’t have to mean frumpy jumpers. You can stay warm and look stylish at the same time. We have been keeping our eyes peeled for the hottest high fashion trends to keep you fresh, up to date and oh so stylish.

Here are the top new trends for autumn to get you inspired!

These stunning styles will be in your local boutique and high street store anytime soon!

Versace have opted for an edgy look with strong 1980’s influences. Lashings of tartan, bold prints, contrasting colours and most importantly, lots of deliciously dark burgundy leather. The main colour theme for Versace is pairing burgundy, blue and yellow for an edgy autumnal look. Versace have said no to the traditional beige, orange and red autumn tones, instead they have gone for a bold look that is almost reminiscent of 1970’s Vivienne Westwood looks.

Givenche has placed heavy emphasis on gloriously shiny leather in a variety of deep, divine jewel tones. Full outfits in one stunning tone looks classic yet modern. Givenche has opted for a classic retro look with focus upon neutral tones and the occasional deep jewel tone. Full body faux fur, fitted leather and striking blazers. The tailoring and choices of fabric really steal the show.

RADA

Prada has interestingly gone for something completely different, no 1970’s or 1980’s influences here! Prada has gone for a stunning futuristic look. Neon colours, unique, never seen before styles of tailoring. Layering contrasting fabrics, oversized items paired with figure hugging items. So fresh that Prada is beyond cool and modern, they are futuristic.

Gorgeous at any age Is your makeup ageing you?

Makeup when used correctly can enhance your natural beauty making you look and feel drop dead gorgeous!

However when makeup is used wrong it can look unflattering and even make you look older! No matter what age you are, here are the reasons why makeup can age you and how to fix it!

1

Use a Primer Makeup can settle into fine lines and can enhance areas of uneven skin texture making the skin look worse than it actually is. Using a primer creates a smooth base for makeup to sit on top of providing a flawless, youthful look. There are a variety of primers for different skin types, oily, dry, dull skin, you can get a perfect base for your skin type at a variety of price points.

2

Avoid Heavy Powder Vibrant, glowing skin is the vision of youth. Heavy, matte finish powders ruin this vibrancy making the skin look dull, flat and lifeless. Maintain the lustre your skin has by avoiding a heavy powder application. If you have oily skin just use powder sparingly on the T-zone are (forehead, nose and chin). Be sure to leave your cheeks free from powder as the light will bounce off your dewy cheekbones giving you a youthful finish.

4

Make your lips pop!

Bright colours make your face look vibrant. Hot pinks, reds and oranges are fabulous and elegant. Avoid darker colours as they can make your lips look smaller. Lip gloss is amazing at making your lips look more plump as it reflects the light for a pouty illusion. Make a statement with a fun pop of colour but make sure that your lips are suitable with the rest of your makeup. A heavy eye look and a bold lip is very severe and can be ageing so make sure your face is balanced.

Avoid Harsh Dark Colours Dark eyeshadow colours can be make you look drab rather than fab. Dark colours can look severe and dominate your face rather than accentuating it.

Bronze, gold and brown tones for the eyes are always a winner no matter what your eye colour is. A bronze eyeshadow look paired with lots of mascara is always flattering and glamorous. If you have fair skin and blonde hair then you may want to consider a dark brown mascara instead of black for a softer look.

Gossip has a visit from

High Tide!

Gossip shows what it takes to make a magazine!

G

ossip Magazine had the pleasure of working with the High Tide Foundation to teach a group of lovely young people about what it takes to make a magazine; all the way from an idea to seeing it become a physical printed reality. The High Tide Foundation is a registered charity, created and driven by port related businesses to provide opportunities to the young people of Teesside.

We started the day with a presentation showing them our early ideas for articles, our reasoning for creating certain articles and what we bear in mind when creating content. What is relevant?, what is the reader demographic?, what is going on in the local area?. The group were shown various drafts and versions of pages in our August edition to see how magazine pages are reworked and tweaked, they got to see the full creative process!

The group had a go at creating their own brief, what they wanted their page to be about and what it would look like, there was so many fantastic ideas it was hard to choose a winner! Our winning brief was done by Will!

you can see it in the right hand corner!

The Gossip team discussed our individual roles and how each role is very important, team work is essential! The group got to see how our team works like a chain.

We loved how fresh and current his music page idea was, we made his brief into a reality,

GOSSIP Ideas are passed from our editor to our marketeer, who then creates a brief for our designer. Our idea then becomes a visual reality! However this isn’t the end of the process, time to head to the printers!

The group had the pleasure of visiting PBL Print to see our August edition getting printed! We were given a very warm welcome and were given a grand tour. The August edition was so hot off the press that some copies were still being printed!

The group got to see our pages that were shown in the powerpoint being printed. They got to see the journey from initial idea, the various drafts and then the final version being printed.

MY MUSIC

RECOMMENDATIONS Winning article by Will Jeffrey

Albums to Acquire The Arctic Monkeys Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino A controversial album as it is so different to their well love previous album, AM.The Artic Monkeys have gone for a glam rock, experimental sound with definite David Bowie influences.

HHHH

The Vaccines Combat Sports A grunge, garage rock sound. A modern polished version of 1970’s and 1980’s rock.

With influences from Big Star, Todd Rundgren and Leonard Cohen.

We were taken round the factory and shown the full print process, moving from one machine to the next; huge sheets coming out of the printer then how they get cropped and bound. We were even taught how different types of magazines, leaflets and brochures are made! After a very informative visit we were all kindly given goody bags as a souvenir from our trip. We all thoroughly enjoyed our day and we hope that we have sparked an interest in magazine production in the High Tide group. We would like to thank High Tide and PBL Print for a fantastic day!

HHHH

Travis Scott Astroworld Astroworld has been noted as a hip hop album, incorporating elements of trap and psychedelic music.

Receiving rave reviews from critics and performed well commercially. The album title is named after the closed-down theme park Six Flags AstroWorld located in Houston, Texas.

My name is

Shelly Wright

IN BUSINESS My name is

Christine H Roelebninson

I have recently started up my own business called Rustic Wood Design Studio (RWDS). I currently appear to be the only sign making event business in the UK. I spent 20 years working within the social care sector with adults with learning disabilities and I then worked for the North East Ambulance Service for 10 years. In May 2014 I injured myself and applied for a senior position as a clinician at headquarters. Regularly driving home after 12 hour night shifts became dangerous. The decision was made with my husband to find a new career path. My husband and I got married in 2015. We had a rustic wedding with tipi’s, log centre pieces and mis-matched dinner plates. From my love of all things rustic RWDS was born. I offer sign making workshops, due to my skills and experience, I can tailor the workshops to suit people with all disabilities allowing everyone to feel welcome and able.

www.gossip-uk.com

BUSINESS In the age of the keyboard warrior we have to accept that people will talk about your business online, whether their experience was good or bad.

Being the recipient of negative comments online is never a pleasant experience but they should never be ignored.

The first rule of responding to negative reviews is to apologise for not meeting their expectations. This helps to set the tone that you want to resolve the situation. If you are planning on taking your brand to social media, before you sign up for everything, take a moment to think about who is your ideal customer?

Which platform would they use? We can help you choose what social media platforms are best to reach your target demographic.Whatever platforms you choose, you need to ensure you stay true to your brand, post relevant content that will resonate with your audience and stay human; engage with your followers. The benefits of a website come from understanding what it can do for you. The first thing a potential new customer will do is.. Google you. They will look for your website to find out what you look like and what you offer. They will find you on social media to see what you say and they will check Google Pages to see if you have any reviews. The website will give your potential new customer an insight into what

products or services you offer, what your premises looks like, maybe give prices and advise how to contact you. Most people will do this on their phone or tablet which means your website should be mobile responsive, if it’s not, it will be difficult to navigate and they may just give up. Think of your website as your online shop window, ask friends and family to give you some honest feedback. Does it tell them what you do? Do they know how to contact you?Can they find the information they need easily? ....................................................

There’s also a wide selection of starters, such as salt and pepper squid, spicy chicken wings, and baked Camembert, and mains including lobster, a burger, a parmo, and chicken in peppercorn sauce.

Owner Howard Eggleston states “Our meat is locally sourced - lamb from Faceby, beef from Northallerton, amongst others. We only select native or rare breed cattle Aberdeen Angus, Shorthorn and Hereford. “The meat is dry aged at Country Valley for us in a special temperature controlled chamber filled with Himalayan salt. The salt draws out moisture and therefore helps develop and tenderise the beef. Only after a minimum of 28 days is the beef then good enough for our restaurant.” The restaurant is a huge success, especially the roof top bar, Hide Bar and Tomahawk Steak House is the place to be! ....................................................

Cod Fillets with a Herb Crust This recipe transforms the humble cod into a flavoursome supper dish, thanks to a crunchy topping of fresh herbs and grated lemon zest.

Serve with plenty of green vegetables and a green salad for a delicious healthy meal.

1814

½

What you need

1

Heat oven to 220°C (gas mark 7). The oven can be warming up whilst you make the herb crust mixture.

Prep time: 10 mins Serves: 4

2

Combine the breadcrumbs, garlic, lemon zest and herb. Pour in the butter and mix with a large fork or your fingers, until combined.

Ingredients: • 4 cod fillets • 100g (3½oz) breadcrumbs • 2 cloves garlic, crushed • Finely grated zest 1 small lemon • 1tbsp chopped fresh chives • 1tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley • 1tbsp chopped fresh basil • 60g (2¼oz) butter, melted • 1 lemon, quartered, to serve

3

Place the cod on a large greased baking tray and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cover the fillets with the crumb mixture, pressing down on each. You want a thick application but not too thick. About a centimetre on each fillet of fish, too much crust may not cook properly.

4

Transfer the cod to the oven and roast for about 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden. Serve with lots of vegetables, delicious served with asparagus and baby potatoes.

Cooking time: 20 mins

28

Method

This dish works well with any meaty white fish fillets. Try with pollock, haddock, hake, halibut or snapper fillets.

Salmon is also delicious too!

Book Launch Amazing New Book from Teesside Author Martyn Ellington We caught up with Martyn (Pen name M. E. Ellington) to discuss his new book, Thirstonfield Halt, which is set in Teesside, and to find out why he began writing. Martyn explained that he took to writing in 2011 following a significant change to his personal life. Whilst not giving away specific details he told us that in late 2008 he suddenly found himself out of work and as a single parent to his three young children. He went on to tell us that around the same time he was also diagnosed with a degenerative condition of his spine, which has now left him unable to do many of things he used to love.

His latest book is set in the fictional town of Thirstonfield on the North York Moors. He explains it’s somewhere between Whitby and Middlesbrough. Martyn told us how this book came about “My brother Steven Ellington, who is a spiritualist Medium, had the idea a few years ago for the story and places after coming across a dark spirit in the Newport area of Middlesbrough,” He explained. “I’d just finished another project and asked Steven if we could work together to bring his ideas to life. I felt it was something I could really enjoy writing, and it’s a subject I hadn’t tackled before, so it was a good challenge for me. We worked closely on this to make sure all the details were accurate. A lot of the events which happen are things which Steven has experienced when working as a medium,” He went on to say “It’s a good oldfashioned British ghost story, but set around true events, and is the first in a series of three books. We’re now planning the second title. Writing should begin later this year.”

You can see all of Martyn’s books under his pen name, M.E. Ellington on Amazon, and on his website: www.martynellington.com @MartynEllington Also you can visit Steven's website: www.stevenellington.co.uk/

1838

Since then Martyn has written and had published three books including the thriller, The Martialis Incident, and the climatefiction title; Devolution of a Species. He’s also made the Amazon best-seller lists and is producing two audiobooks. He is currently working on a fourth title with a writer in L.A. He told us that this title – yet to be published – has just become a finalist in a major Competition in L.A. “It’s very surreal to have one my manuscripts recognised in such a huge competition.” Martyn explained.

utumn is on it’s way, your dogs can't wait to play fetch and run through piles of crunchy leaves. Your cats will love curling up in front of the fire. As the weather gets colder make sure your pets stay warm and cosy! Make sure you buy them a snuggly winter coat to keep your pets snug when you are taking them for walks in the fresh autumn air. When you are out on your walk be careful of wild mushrooms as they flourish in the damp, cool autumn weather. So keep an eye out when you take your dog to any woodland areas. While you are relaxing and eating hearty autumn snacks make sure your dog doesn't have a nibble when you aren’t looking. Chocolate and other high fat foods can cause stomach problems in pets so make sure it is only you who is have a nibble! We hope you and your pets have a great autumn.

ARMANI Neutral tones such as grey, beige, black, navy blue and white are always style staples but this autumn they are bigger than ever. Armani have made neutrals a main focus, with a heavy focus upon grey; entire outfits of black and grey create a powerful and understated look. There is a strong 1940’s influence with some outfits bearing a military reference.

Lots of knitwear and tailored pieces layered to create a smart yet casual look.

Fendi have gone for a 1970’s throwback with a modern twist. Slacks, corduroy trousers, raincoats and blazers are dominant in Fendi’s autumn winter range. Leather and knitwear is key to achieve a Fendi inspired look with a brown and beige focused colour palette. The jackets are perfectly tailored but the rest of the range is very oversized and casual. Perfect for a comfy everyday look.

If you’re looking for something simple and classic then Mathew Miller is your main point of inspiration. Precision tailored rain macs are a key theme of this autumn range.

Mathew Miller has opted for some military references in a similar way to Armani.

GOSSIP The Inspirational Story of Elaine, Eaglescliffe.

Slimming World Woman of the Year 2018 Elaine is 72 and lives with her very supportive husband Barry. When she was 60 she had an awful accident with serious repercussions. Her husband bought her a puppy for her 60th birthday. She hadn’t noticed the puppy had weed on the floor whilst taking her husbands dinner to him. She slipped and badly shattered her ankle. It was pinned with metal plates but she was plagued with infections so they had to take these out and put in a ankle replacement. The infections didn’t stop and they had to figure out how they could fix this.

She was at an all time low. Her friend told her ‘you’ll never lose weight being in a wheelchair’. Being a fighter she decided to do something positive and looked for a local Slimming World group and found one on a Tuesday morning in Eaglescliffe.

She loved it, all the tips, ideas, enthusiasm and so friendly it was like a family. She has lost nearly 2 stone so far and her fellow members admire her so much they voted her Woman of the Year 2018 for her Eaglescliffe group. She has made great changes now eating healthier and the benefits of less pain in her joints, breathing better are well worth it. She feels she is getting her life back.

Before her accident Elaine was very active mountaineering and rock climbing. Elaine is a lovely lady, always joking and pleasant which is admirable with all she has been through.

you’ll never lose weight being in a wheelchair

To make things worse Elaine then had a stroke which affected the opposite side of the body to her injured ankle, leaving her in a wheelchair.

After this she got breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. It was no wonder she turned to food for comfort, biscuits, chocolate, wine, and cheese.

The weight started to pile on and her health was suffering. The last straw was when, early this year, her 10 month old great granddaughter died.

If you would like to succeed like Elaine join us at one of our Eaglescliffe or Thornaby groups.
