The first makeup brush that I ever bought was the Prescriptives Powder Brush - it's now so old that it's actually the Prescriptives Powder "Bru", as one eagle-eyed Instagram follower pointed out. I bought this brush (see photograph for general condition and...
Oh, oh, oh. Givenchy has pretty much hit the sexy-nail right on the head with their Le Rouge lipsticks. The outer case is metal and black leather - I'll just repeat that: metal and black leather. It just feels so luxurious when you hold it in your hand! Mine has my...
For me, the highlight of Estée Lauder's spring collection (Pretty Naughty) is most definitely the Pure Colour Matte Lipstick. It comes in four shades but my favourites are a peachy-nude, "Naked" and a bold, orange-red called "Rock Candy". They are incredibly pigmented...
I thought that I'd share with you my current foundation "routine". Obviously it varies a little from time to time; I adapt it to suit the weather, how my skin's looking and the products that I want to test out, but this is the general gist of it. I've used a radiance...
You know me, I usually go for very plain, nude nails. I'm not one for any type of glitter or, really, much colour. I like coral shades and really hot orangey-reds, but apart from that I do tend to stick to taupe, putty and pretty barely-there nude nail varnishes. It's...
I've been rather tardy in getting around to reviewing this foundation from Giorgio Armani. In fact, it has probably been reviewed to death all over the internet by now and you're sick of hearing about it - if that's the case then I do apologise. I'm late to the party,...
Here's a handy little cream blush. Completely mess and hassle free. You just pop the lid off, wind up the blush, stripe it on to the cheeks and lightly blend. The result is a pretty flush that's a lot easier to wear than you'd expect - it's not sheer, exactly, but...
A voiceover video for you because I can't yet talk for more than two minutes without breaking out into the most unladylike, honking cough. It's actually surprisingly difficult, when making videos, to get all of the different elements to come together without error; to...
I'm finding it difficult to drum up any enthusiasm for writing about Springtime Beauty at this particular moment. Mostly because I'm still in bed (yes, still) with this hideous flu-with-a-touch-of-possible-pneumonia and my face looks like an old piece of tree bark...
This month's most regularly used lip "things" have been the new Tom Ford Lip Colour Shines. There's something about Tom Ford - everything he touches just seems to appeal to me. I've said this before - Tom and I have very similar tastes. He should probably hire me as...
Dr Hauschka have changed their packaging for the summer 2013 makeup collection and I think that it looks incredibly swish. Rose gold foil with black detailing. I especially like the black pictures of the brushes that run along the length of the packets - there's...
Another week, another new mascara launch. There are so many mascara launches that it boggles my brain, but I'm quite a picky old customer when it comes to my lash-lengthening products, so I don't often post about them. Either the wand is too brittle or the formula is...
