I reviewed Burberry's Fresh Glow BB Cream two years ago as part of a bigger post on Burberry foundations, but I think that it deserves its own page. So many BB/CC/DD creams have a claggy, SPF-heavy kind of feel and it's a real treat to find one that's fresh textured...
Lee Stafford's quite rude-looking CoCo LoCo Wonderball Ceramic Hair Waver has instantly shot to the top of my "best hair things" list. It's so easy to use that I managed to wave my hair without using a mirror. That's right, readers: I curled my hair using blind faith...
As I've already mentioned, possibly more times than necessary, I've had a bit of a hair makeover. I'm loathe to bang on about it too much, but I can't seem to help myself: I think that I was probably pretty low about my appearance after having Ted, and my new,...
I do love it when I rediscover something utterly amazing; the eye cream that feels instantly nourishing (Elemental Herbology), the face base that feels as light as a feather (Effaclar BB Blur), the mascara that makes me look twenty times more alive (Guerlain Maxi...
Sometimes, I just love the perfected look of a full coverage base; the velvety finish that's so glamorous and Old Hollywood, the way that my dark underye circles are obliterated and the redness around my nose totally erased. Mostly I tend to go for very sheer, "real...
I think I've reached "Peak Fatigue" this week. I could not be more tired. I know we're not supposed to moan about being tired - let's radiate positivity! - but when you feel as though you've been awake since November 1998 and your eyeballs seem to have been replaced...
I'm having a bit of a face wash frenzy at the moment; after finally finishing my First Aid Beauty Deep Cleanser with Red Clay I decided to start not one replacement cleanser but four. The full reviews are coming up, but I thought I'd jot down some speedy notes in case...
Apparently, 30% of women in the UK believe that their skincare stops working - or stops working as effectively - over time. I can see where this idea comes from - it's actually very difficult to see results on your own face when you're glancing at it in the mirror...
I've had a good chance to really test the limits of my new haircut, now, and things have been going pretty well. Which has led me to ask the question: could this be my perfect style? Well: yes and no. Perhaps I'm just in the honeymoon phase with my new, shorter hair,...
I think that OM Skincare's Mindful Traveller is a fabulous idea: a gorgeous, sleek bottle that houses travel-friendly amounts of OM's Pure Glow Cleanser and Daily Radiance Moisturiser. I call it a bottle, but it's not really - it's a lightweight tube, with two little...
Well this is an interesting one. I can't decide whether Chanel's Les Beiges Healthy Glow Gel Touch Foundation should be classified as a foundation, a tinted moisturiser or a complexion enhancer. The best way I think I can describe it is that it feels like a glossy top...
Do you get yourself into a bit of a mess when it comes to bronzer application? I think that it can be really tricky to get right - especially as there are so many different methods shown in video tutorials and beauty pages. The application pattern du jour on the...
