I was going to do a written post on my postpartum hair loss, but actually you can see the sparse patches better on video, so a video it is. I'm thoughtful that way. And look I know that my hair loss isn't drastic - not by any means - but so many people have expressed...
It's possible I'm having something of a rekindled love affair with highlighters at the moment: pearlescent powders, cream illuminators, even obvious shimmers - anything, quite honestly, that will add some much-needed glow to my knackered face. I had forgotten how much...
After mentally compiling a "best of 2015" list but then completely forgetting to actually write up a post, I thought that I might work my way through and do some standalone reviews. At any rate, the Creme Puff Blush from Max Factor deserves its own page here on A...
For regular readers, this video is just something a bit extra; I'll be doing far more in-depth reviews of the foundations shown on the video here on the website. You know how I like to keep you all in the Youtube loop! See all recent videos... There are quite a few...
I'm starting the new week with an incredibly decadent giveaway for you. Do you remember my summer love affair with the Christophe Robin volumising haircare à la rose? Beautiful, bouncifying shampoo and conditioner with the most delicate rose scent? (If you don't...
If you're intent on overhauling your beauty cabinet this January then now is the time: Clinique have a gorgeous gift available at their Covent Garden store, available with the purchase of two or more Clinique products*. The gift includes a mini of one of my favourite...
By Terry's Hyaluronic Sheer Nude Hydra-Balm: get on my lips! I've been waiting for something like this for months; juicy, plumptious and peachy, sheer enough to be absolutely foolproof to apply, but with just about enough colour to make the whole thing a worthwhile...
Oh, I know we're still in the depths of winter (for people in the UK winter seems to have actually only just started) but there's nothing wrong with a bit of optimistic, forward-looking makeup wearing. Dior's 2016 Spring Look - Glowing Gardens - is actually just as...
I think you'll agree that the below "before and after" photographs are pretty epic: no light or computer trickery has been used. (I don't ever retouch my images, by the way - or Facetune or whatever people use to whiten their teeth and get rid of wrinkles and...
Starting off the new week with a skincare video; here's a roundup of the beauty products I've been slathering on my face in an attempt to beat the dreaded "winter dryness". I think my horrifically dry and tight skin has been more down to being ill rather than the...
I must apologise for my prolonged absence; I'm currently on Day 12 of a horrible cold-cough-throat virus thing that I'm finding hard to shift, and I have, until today, been stuck in bed. But I'm back, albeit mentally limping, and I have a wonderful giveaway for you to...
I wanted to give this sumptuous, buttery face moisturiser a bit more of a try before writing a full review, but I've noticed that it has a third off at Escentual.com at the moment and - as it's not exactly cheap - thought that I'd give it an early shout-out....
