Another great moisturiser from La Roche-Posay (I already really rate the Toleriane Fluid for very light, effective hydration): the Toleriane Ultra Overnight Care. This is an intensely soothing, comfortable night cream that feels very rich but doesn't leave any...
I have finally moved Baby Ted into his own room, which means that I been able reclaim my old bedtime routine. When there's a baby in the bedroom, it's inadvisable to turn a light on after they've fallen asleep, so activities such as reading a book - or searching for...
I appear to have developed a penchant for the sort of beauty packaging that looks as though it's come straight from the set of an Alice in Wonderland film. I've become a real sucker for vintage-style perfume bottles, interesting pots, dainty tins, jars with fancy lids...
I spent the majority of my allotted filming time for this October Favourites video clarting about with my hair, trying to arrange it so that I didn't look like a Cluedo character. (Miss Scarlett, if you're asking. There's something about blonde hair of a certain...
I've filmed a lovely video with John Lewis, all about Autumn skincare and pepping up your routine by adding in little beauty treats to prepare for the colder weather. You can watch that video here but I wanted to have a run through the products, because some of them...
I'm very excited to announce that my Colab Dry Shampoo is now available at Boots, both in-store and online! If you're not already a "Colab Convert" then it's now far easier to get hold of a can and give it a try - loved all over the world for its clean, residue-free...
It feels like the battle of the goody bags again - lots of the beauty retailers seem to be doing high-value gift-with-purchases in the run up to Christmas and everyone seems to want to out-do everybody else. I can't remember when the last big run of GWP madness was,...
After my brief financial misdemeanour the other week (see unicorn boots, here) it brings me great joy to show you two very cheap and cheerful things that might just brighten up your wintery day. First, the "j'adore" t-shirt from Boohoo at ASOS*, which is a tenner....
I have been desperately trying to divert attention away from my undereye circles by smudging on loads of eyeliner. An old trick utilised quite frequently in my more hedonistic (read youthful) modelling days, when I used to think nothing of staying out at a party until...
There seems to be a bit of a thing for longwear foundation launches at the moment, and I have a handful of those that I'm testing on rotation, but I wanted to kick off this run of reviews with Dior's new Diorskin Forever Perfect Mousse. Although it actually...
I've been back on the foundation testing train (first scheduled stop, Dior's new Forever Perfect Mousse, toot-toot!) but before I hit you with a slew of in-depth reviews, let's talk about the chunky brush I've been applying my bases with for the past few months....
There has been a huge kerfuffle around the UK launch of Glossier, the beauty brand from brilliant website Into The Gloss. Created by the Into The Gloss beauty editors and very much developed by listening to comments and feedback from their readers, Glossier is a...
