Skincare Stocking Fillers: The Soothing Mask | AD

There's a new addition to L'Oreal's Pure Clay mask range and it couldn't have launched at a better time. The Pure Clay Soothing Mallow Mask has been formulated with more sensitive skin in mind which makes it perfect for winter-worn, partied-out skin that needs a bit...

Skincare Review: La Solution 10 De Chanel

Skincare Review: La Solution 10 De Chanel

I had forgotten how much I like this rich, instantly-soothing face cream from Chanel. It contains just ten ingredients (hence the Solution 10) and has been carefully and cleverly formulated so that it's suitable for even the most sensitive skin. No fragrance (a rarity...

What’s In My Makeup Bag? Autumn 2018

What’s In My Makeup Bag? Autumn 2018

Here are the contents of my makeup bag, accurate to two weeks ago today. In all honesty, I'm not a huge fan of the Camo Luxe palette and so that has since been swapped out (for Tilbury's Vintage Vamp, if you must know, which is one of the greatest eye quads of all...

Best Budget Beauty Buys with Nadine Baggott

Best Beauty Buys with Nadine Baggott. There are a lot of Bs in that title - it's a good job Nadine wasn't named Brenda! I have two very professional, completely serious videos for you to catch up on. I promise you that there are absolutely no rude bits whatsoever and...

Skincare Review: Herbivore Pink Cloud Cream

Skincare Review: Herbivore Pink Cloud Cream

As I scrape the very last remnants of cream from the bottom of the glass jar, I find myself missing Herbivore's Pink Cloud Rosewater Moisture Cream before it has even reached the recycling box. Unusual for me, because quite a lot of the time I'm in a rush to try the...

The Classic Red Lip: A New Way To Wear It

The Classic Red Lip: A New Way To Wear It

Here's the classic red lip but with a new way to wear it. Which makes it the un-classic red lip, I suppose. It's soft and diffused, the edges are patted down and blurry - it's easier and more wearable than the traditional hard-edged, punchy red lip but still vibrant...

October Beauty: What Really Worked?

October Beauty: What Really Worked?

A new format for you; I've rolled the October monthly "favourites" and "most-used" into one mega-video to create - wait for it - October Beauty: What Really Worked? Now don't get me wrong, I love picking out the most exciting new launches and best old-school beauty...

Five Beauty Products That Changed My Skin

Five Beauty Products That Changed My Skin

A new video for you here, but as it's proved to be such a popular one already I'll give you a bit of an extended blurb. The Five Beauty Products that Changed My Skin has a slightly confusing title, I suppose, because it's more about the five "types" of product that...

Autumn, Dry Skin and the Aveeno Dermexa range | AD

After the best summer in living memory (for me, at least; those older have enjoyed banging on about the summer of '76 which was, of course, hotter, longer and tougher) we find ourselves hurtling into autumn. The leaves are starting to fall, the nights are drawing in...

Hotel Life: Satan’s Shampoo

Hotel Life: Satan’s Shampoo

I've made the dire mistake, numerous times this year alone, of using the free shampoo and conditioner provided by whatever hotel I've happened to be staying in. Now I hate to generalise about hotel shampoos and conditioners (especially as I'm later going to present a...

Skincare Review: Bioderma Sensibio Eye Contour Gel

Skincare Review: Bioderma Sensibio Eye Contour Gel

I first bought Bioderma's Sensibio Eye Contour Gel a few years ago in Paris; I had forgotten to pack my beloved Pai Echium Eye Cream and so I hot-footed it to the nearest Pharmacie to find something similar. I was in Paris for a cosmetics shoot and my call sheet...

Best Supermarket Beauty Buys: ASDA

Best Supermarket Beauty Buys: ASDA

The supermarket beauty series continues; this time I trawled the aisles at ASDA to find the best skincare, makeup and haircare morsels. There wasn't so much choice in the way of niche beauty at ASDA but - and this takes us tailspinning into an entirely new and...
