Click play to find out which beauty products I've been using most frequently this month - if you want the spoiler list then it's below the video pane. I know that some of you secretly read my words when you're at work and can't play the videos, or browse through when...
This Eucerin Eye Cream has been mentioned many times over the past couple of years, but it's never had its own review page. And seeing as though it can be relatively difficult to find good eye products with added sunscreen, I thought that it would be handy to have a...
It's been over a year since my first (and last) "seasonal" skincare update, so that idea for a regular feature worked out well, didn't it? Why do I have such an aversion to my own deadlines? I can spend three hours thinking and writing about sink design, a topic so...
I feel as though I've almost written an entire review on this sunscreen already, but as the mentions are dotted about in different posts I thought I'd collate all of the information into one neat review. Because this CeraVe Facial Moisturising Lotion with SPF 25 is a...
I'm being rather slow on the whole sunscreen-testing thing, aren't I? In truth, I have made extensive notes on dozens of sun creams - all tried very carefully and objectively - but my written reviews are, for some reason, slow to materialise. Perhaps it's because I...
I inadvertently opened up what can only be described as a "beauty time capsule" the other day and was almost knocked sideways by the smell that came out of it. I was looking for some bikini hair removal cream (as you do, once a year if you're me - it's wedding...
The recent prolonged spate of hot weather has given me a good chance to do some proper sunscreen testing. I've tested matte ones, mineral ones, budget ones and ones that require a second mortgage; moisturising sunscreens, apply-once sunscreens and mists that are...
The title of this video should really be What's In My Makeup Bags, plural, not Bag, singular, because - at last count - I have four different versions on the go. The first one (my special edition Swag Bag with Scamp & Dude - all profits go to my chosen charity,...
The other week I stayed overnight at a friend's house and made the mistake, the following morning, of applying the world's richest, stickiest night cream to my face and neck. I'm not going to say who makes it, because I used it at the wrong time of day and had I used...
Well it's been a while, hasn't it? I promised a whole slew of foundation reviews on a very regular basis and there hasn't been one since Clinique's Even Better Glow, which was months ago. It was also, admittedly, a hard face base to follow and I didn't really want to...
It seems like only yesterday, but it's actually a whole year since I wrote my post on the Anne Sémonin made-to-measure skincare routine I had been prescribed. You can read about that here, if you'd like a quick trip down memory lane!) It was quite a complex routine,...
Goodness me. Can we just take a moment to appreciate the effort that's gone into designing these Guerlain Rouge G lipstick cases? Rouge G has always been a favourite of mine, with the slide-out lip colour and pop-up mirror. It weighs about the same as a four-oven AGA,...
