I promised a full review on this foundation and then promptly forgot about it. Not because I haven't used it again - in fact, quite the opposite. It has become one of those bases that I feel I can rely on for a good, believable finish that has a nice glow and a...
The Silent Nude Blush (NARS x Christopher Kane)
A few weeks ago I filmed the new NARS Christopher Kane collection for my video section on The Telegraph. I was pleasantly surprised that the entire range, so scarily neon and crazy at first glance, was actually very wearable - even the metallic lilac Multiple, which...
Perfect Brows for Lazy People: Benefit Gimme Brow
I've been raving to anyone who'll listen about my new brow discovery: Benefit Gimme Brow. I find it very difficult to get excited about eyebrows and I must say that I think the nation/world's obsession with these perfect, drawn-on mega-brows is just weird, but...
What’s In My Beauty Kit?
I have a little box of stuff that I keep beside me if I'm doing a bit of a long-haul filming day. My face tends to get really sore if I do more than one makeup change (brilliant asset for a model!) and so I like to have a few soothing things handy, and also a...
Illamasqua Gel Colour: Nearly-Neon Non-Moving Blush
I decided to follow some instructions (for once!) because there were some application tips that came with the new Illamasqua Gel Sculpt Blusher. Tips from the top woman herself, founder of the Illamasqua brand and makeup artist extraordinaire, Alex Box. She said this:...
Mastered: The Val Garland School of Makeup
If you're really into makeup, fashion and the world of beauty then you may have picked up on the buzz surrounding the new Val Garland School of Makeup. Val Garland is absolutely legendary in the fashion world; I have always admired her for the way that she constantly...
Skincare and Makeup: What’s On My Face?
Just a very quick look at what I had on my face (makeup and skincare) when I shot Tuesday's Colab Competition video intro. I did it all in a bit of a rush because I needed to get the video out early in the morning, but I was nevertheless incredibly pleased at the way...
The bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Review
After a myriad of recent BB/CC/DD cream disasters, I was both relieved and delighted to find that bareMinerals' new complexion-enhancing offering, the "Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream" was something of a winner. It's basically just a very, very good...
Catch It Quick: Bobbi Brown Art Stick in Hot Orange
Sorry, I feel as though I've been spending a lot of time on lipsticks lately. It seems to be a new obsession of mine - strange, considering I have never been a big lipstick wearer. But I seem to be coming round to the whole grow-up, painted lips thing - just adding...
The Glowing Skin “Makeup Dream Team”…
There were quite a few people asking about my skin in my latest videos, so I thought I'd quickly run through the makeup I had on. It was a bit of a glowing skin "Dream Team" to be quite honest - all of the below photographs were taken with just natural daylight (they...
April Beauty Favourites
There are two beauty favourites videos, this month - one on skincare and one on makeup - and I filmed them nice and early. I'm trying to do everything nice and early, just in case I get a sudden late-pregnancy energy deficit - or, scarier thought - I go into labour...
Changing Red Lipstick Allegiances: Chanel Rouge Coco in “Arthur”
Look, I thought that "Coco" was my favourite red from Chanel's new Rouge Coco lipstick collection, but it's becoming very apparent that I may have changed my mind. Sorry. Regardez-vous the very bright, very punchy "Arthur". Is it not an absolute delight? It warms the...
