Chanel Les Beiges: The Marinière Edition

Chanel Les Beiges: The Marinière Edition

If you use your Chanel Les Beiges powders on a near-daily basis (I do) then you will most likely want to snap up one of the new, limited edition Marinière versions. They give the same perfected glow as the standard Les Beiges powders but with a bit of extra - very...

Custom Cover Drops: The Ultimate Customisable Foundation

Custom Cover Drops: The Ultimate Customisable Foundation

As promised, a more in-depth study of the Custom Cover Drops from Cover FX. There's been quite a bit of hype surrounding this little bottle of foundation pigment and I will start by saying that the hype is not unfounded: this is a rather revolutionary makeup product...

Guerlain Maxi Lash: If Porsche Made Mascara

Guerlain Maxi Lash: If Porsche Made Mascara

  Oh my God, behave! This mascara from Guerlain is almost too sexy to be legal! I'm a long-term Guerlain Maxi Lash fanatic, so this new version was bound to tickle my fancy, but still: even I was taken aback at just how gorgeous the packaging was. (If you need...

Maybelline Brow Drama vs Benefit Gimme Brow

Maybelline Brow Drama vs Benefit Gimme Brow

After my raving review of Benefit's Gimme Brow, many people very kindly suggested alternatives for me to try, or requested comparisons with similar products. I've been quite busy (!) but have managed to test out Maybelline's Brow Drama and compare it. I ordered the...

Laura Mercier Foundation Primer: Instant Radiance

Laura Mercier Foundation Primer: Instant Radiance

I realised that I've featured the Laura Mercier Radiance Foundation Primer in loads of videos but it doesn't have its own post here on the website. And it deserves one. This is a primer so glowy that - if you're not careful - you're in danger of looking rather...

Tinted Lip Balm: Three Delicious Options

Tinted Lip Balm: Three Delicious Options

Three juicy tinted lip balms for you - two rather posh and expensive ones and then a high street challenger with the most sumptuous and buttery texture. Tinted lip balm is a great way of wearing colour if you hate the maintenance of a true lipstick or want something...

Clinique Lip Pop: Lipstick for Learners

Clinique Lip Pop: Lipstick for Learners

I was sold on the Clinique Lip Pop Colour and Primer Lipstick the moment I first put one on - it has just the most buttery, smooth and sumptuous texture and the colours are punchy and bright. Application is almost foolproof. If ever there was a "lipstick for learners"...

Dior Tie Dye: Tan Glow Enhancing Powder

Dior Tie Dye: Tan Glow Enhancing Powder

I don't mind telling you that this blush and I got off to a bit of a rocky start. I applied it all over my face like a maniac, thinking that I'd given myself a "healthy glow" when in fact I'd turned myself orange. (Cue Mr AMR "what have you done to your face? It's...

KIKO Modern Tribes Maxi Bronzer

KIKO Modern Tribes Maxi Bronzer

There's a bit of a bronzer review "run" at the moment, so do bear with me! I wanted to get them all tested out so that I was ready for the summer - you saw the Guerlain ones yesterday, and there are still a few more to go. Unless Baby AMR emerges before the end of the...

Guerlain Terracotta: Bronzers in a Sexy Summer Shell

Guerlain Terracotta: Bronzers in a Sexy Summer Shell

Bronzer with a "rugged" outer shell? I can get on board with that. Because I do tend to throw my handbag about with gay abandon half the time, accidentally swinging it into brick walls and standing on it and squashing it into impossible spaces in the overhead locker...

Summer Beauty Products: Part 2 of About 3,245.

Summer Beauty Products: Part 2 of About 3,245.

I will readily admit that I've gone a bit gah-gah for the idea of summer; I can't wait to sit in my garden (if I ever get back to my house to sit in my garden!) and feel the warm sun on me as I quietly work my way through the pile of novels I have waiting. (Obviously...

Chanel Summer Makeup Collection: My Top Picks

Chanel Summer Makeup Collection: My Top Picks

I've been playing about with the Chanel Summer 2015 Makeup Collection - Méditerranée - and am completely head over heels with pretty much all of it. But especially - and this was something of a surprise to me - the "Stylo" eyeshadows, which are basically very...
