If you're really into makeup, fashion and the world of beauty then you may have picked up on the buzz surrounding the new Val Garland School of Makeup. Val Garland is absolutely legendary in the fashion world; I have always admired her for the way that she constantly...
Just a very quick look at what I had on my face (makeup and skincare) when I shot Tuesday's Colab Competition video intro. I did it all in a bit of a rush because I needed to get the video out early in the morning, but I was nevertheless incredibly pleased at the way...
After a myriad of recent BB/CC/DD cream disasters, I was both relieved and delighted to find that bareMinerals' new complexion-enhancing offering, the "Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream" was something of a winner. It's basically just a very, very good...
I have devised a little giveaway to celebrate the launch of my newest Colab Dry Shampoo product which is, incidentally, my favourite so far. It was rather a labour of love getting the fragrance just right - it's definitely one for the warmer months, all gorgeously...
Sorry, I feel as though I've been spending a lot of time on lipsticks lately. It seems to be a new obsession of mine - strange, considering I have never been a big lipstick wearer. But I seem to be coming round to the whole grow-up, painted lips thing - just adding...
There were quite a few people asking about my skin in my latest videos, so I thought I'd quickly run through the makeup I had on. It was a bit of a glowing skin "Dream Team" to be quite honest - all of the below photographs were taken with just natural daylight (they...
There are two beauty favourites videos, this month - one on skincare and one on makeup - and I filmed them nice and early. I'm trying to do everything nice and early, just in case I get a sudden late-pregnancy energy deficit - or, scarier thought - I go into labour...
Look, I thought that "Coco" was my favourite red from Chanel's new Rouge Coco lipstick collection, but it's becoming very apparent that I may have changed my mind. Sorry. Regardez-vous the very bright, very punchy "Arthur". Is it not an absolute delight? It warms the...
I can only really say one thing about the Clarins Radiance-Plus Golden Glow Booster and that is get it, get it, get it. As a lover of gradual tanners and a hater of full-on fake tan, these drops, which can be added to any body lotion, serum or oil, are just the most...
Ah, you can't fail to have a good day when you're wearing a load of kittens riding around on unicorns. I bought this dress last year from Silken Favours and (in true Crilly style) saved it for a special occasion, tags still on, in the "forgotten" section of my...
Well this is a nifty little number: a non-cakey, long-lasting, matte-but-not-flat foundation that comes in at less than seven quid. I don't usually get on with a lot of the cheaper foundations, but the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Matte applied and blended beautifully on...
I promised some standalone review posts on the foundations mentioned in last week's video and here's the first: Laura Mercier's Silk Creme Photo Edition Moisturizing Foundation. It's absolutely gorgeous - reminds me a little bit of By Terry's Sheer Expert, in that...
