I've been working on a gorgeous new launch project with one of my most-loved beauty brands, Roger & Gallet, and today I'm proud to introduce their first ever skincare line, Aura Mirabilis. Small but perfectly formed, it shows the same impeccable attention to...
Never before had I been in such dire need of a break. Avid readers will have heard me bang on about my desperation to go on holiday many times, this year, but somehow - what with work commitments and baby stuff and Mr AMR never being free at the right moment - time...
From Clinique's perfectly formed Pop Matte lipsticks (yesterday's post, read here) to a decidedly more cheery and cheeky matte offering: Tanya Burr's Soft Luxe Matte Lip. I came across the one I'm wearing in the photo below, which is called Puppy Paws, completely by...
With the Pop Lip Colour + Primer, which launched last year, Clinique brought us a lipstick that was just about as perfect as could be. Great, intense colour, an easy to apply formula, a comfortable feel and a juicy, non-greasy finish. I had thought before testing them...
After the feedback on my budget foundations video, where many people expressed frustration at not being able to get a suitable - affordable - foundation match for their skintone, I decided to do a bit of research and see what was available on the high street. Not a...
Something weird happened to me just over a week ago and I wanted to put it out there to see if anyone had ever had a similar experience. This, admittedly, would probably be a post better placed on my baby blog, The Uphill, but that would mean logging out of this admin...
The world has gone pineapple crazy. They're on everything from baby clothes to writing paper, from bikinis to candle holders. Here's a little roundup of the totally tropical things brightening up my week... Vero Moda Pineapple Bikini Top, £18 at ASOS here. Now look,...

Thank you to the various people online who reminded me today that I needed to do a baby and body update - I hadn't even realised that it was the 17th! And actually, loads of things have happened this month, so it's a good one to write. Though I am trying to write it...
I totally forgot to post these up in the Sunday Tittle Tattle, as promised, so here goes - the winners of the PhytoPlage giveaway. Well done - the brand will be in touch via email for your postal addresses, so do not be alarmed and do check spam if you haven't heard...
As many of you will know, I often make videos for the Beauty Recommended channel, which is owned by P&G*, and in preparation for these videos I get to trial lots of different products. Whitening toothpastes, new razors, brightening face creams, I give them all a...
I'm always on the hunt for hair products that can transform my dry, slightly frizzy ends into something more sleek and presentable. I do like a serum for the quick-fix appeal and instant shine that it gives (most-used is probably Toni & Guy's Tropical Elixir), but...
