I'll be writing up full posts on most of the products shown in the following video; I have loads of before-and-after pics to show you and I don't want to cram them all onto one page! There are some absolute crackers that I've discovered recently - new foundations that...
Healthy Glow Makeup: Guerlain’s Joli Teint Powder
There are two ways of looking at Guerlain's "Terracotta Joli Teint Healthy Glow Powder Duo" (longest product name in the world, and breathe): either it's a finishing powder that you sweep over your skin to warm it up and add that final layer of faked "rude health", or...
Blue Skies and Blossoms: Jo Malone Cologne
Oh dear. I do sometimes think that Jo Malone gets far too much attention from me in comparison to other fragrance-makers; as a brand, they are kind of like a very cute and confident little girl that can't be ignored. You know that type of impossibly pretty,...
Aveda Botanical Kinetics Energizing Eye Cream – Tick!
I mentioned this lovely Aveda eye cream in my March Favourites video but struggled to put my finger on exactly why I liked it so much. A few weeks on, and with many more days of trialling under my belt, I feel as though I can give you a better account of why this...
Bobbi Brown Creamy Lip Color: Finding the Perfect Nude
My search for the perfect nude lipstick continues. And when I say nude, I mean the kind of shade that almost blanks out the lips, not that "my lips but better" kind of shade that's a pale, caramel-beige neutral. "My lips but better" shades are easy to find - there's...
Two Bronzed and Glowing Natural Makeup Looks…
Thank you so much to those who commented on my makeup in the Chanel Rouge Coco photographs; it's actually part of a look that I was filming for an upcoming Max Factor video! To give you a sneaky preview of what I had on my skin; I buffed in the Skin Luminizer...
Pai Skincare: Targeted Treatment Masks for Sensitive Skin
I haven't really gone on too much about my "pregnancy" skin; mostly because, if truth be known, all has been quite plain-sailing. Actually, I'd go one better than that and say that my skin throughout pregnancy (apart from a few dodgy months at the start) has been the...
Chanel Rouge Coco: The New Lipstick
I did an absolutely mammoth lipstick-trying-on session last week; I was seduced so completely by the new Chanel Rouge Coco launch that I spent a good few hours playing about with the different shades. They are just beautiful. Silky-smooth colour with a plumpy, buttery...
Cyber Peach Lipstick, Take Two!
Another bright, peachy lipstick for those of you who are looking for something pretty but borderline-neon for the spring. Last week I discovered Devon Sunset from Burberry; this week's "cyber peach" is from a cosmetics brand called LOLA - you can find them at Marks...
Pregnancy Body Oils: Mustela Stretch Marks Care
I've been testing out quite a few pregnancy body oils recently and I thought I'd start reporting back on a few of them. Now I know that opinion is divided on stretch mark oils, but I do feel that prevention is better than cure when it comes to these things, and...
March Beauty Favourites with Caroline Hirons
Just as an FYI: this video with Caroline Hirons started off being twenty-nine minutes long. Trying to get it down to anything below twenty took an effort of epic proportions, and finishing off with something that was seventeen? Well. I deserve some kind of Youtube...
Burberry Kisses Lipstick Review
Caroline Hirons came over to film with me yesterday and I appropriated a lipstick from her stash. (We were filming new launches, she had gone lipstick crazy.) Behold the Burberry Kisses lipstick in Devon Sunset; a luminous peachy shade that looks almost neon in...
