Apologies in advance: this post may make you want things. Because they are pretty bloody good, the products from Sunday Riley. I can't say that I have tested the entire range, just a few of the hero offerings, but what I have tried I have loved. My face has loved....
I don't ever tend to get too excited about nail polishes - give me a nude or coral to bung on and I'm happy - but when these little delicacies from new brand Soigné landed in my PO Box...well. I have to admit that a little sigh of pleasure escaped from my cynical,...
I mentioned La Roche-Posay's Toleriane Fluide a couple of weeks ago, but here it is again with its own full page review. Because it deserves one, absolutely; it's a great option for people who would like a very lightweight, non-oily moisturiser that will hydrate and...
Goodness me, I'm ever so late to the party with YSL's Kiss & Blush! Ironic, really, because I had these in my hands way before anyone else had even seen them - I was working with YSL on some how-to videos last year and they were one of the "top secret" products! I...
A still image from my latest video (a lovely one, it's about styling greasy hair!) and the light is hitting my eyelids in just the right way to show off the colours from the Laura Mercier shadow quad that I wrote about yesterday. How lovely is the pearly pink? It's...
Oops! Always take your product shots before you start clarting about with something... Oh well. I like to see something well-used. And I have been using this baked eyeshadow quad from Laura Mercier almost every day for the last couple of weeks; its pinky-warm tones...
I have never had incredibly oily skin but once a month, for just a few days, my face decides to produce more grease than is either necessary or particularly polite. (It's around the same time of the month that I have to resist the urge to batter people around the head...
I've had a can of Dior's Airflash foundation hanging about at home for a while and I have to admit that I hadn't liked it very much: until I found out that I've been using it in completely the wrong way! I've been spraying my face as though painting a car and - as the...
Oh dear, I look rather threatening in the photograph above, don't I? I'm brandishing my monthly favourites in one hand whilst wearing a somewhat hostile expression - not intentionally, I hasten to add. I just tend to get very fed up by the time I've filmed a video...
Clinique's new Long Last Matte lipstick formula is, to me, pretty much faultless. It's beautifully pigmented so you get a good, bright hit of colour and the matte finish is modern without looking dry or cracked. It's possibly the most comfortable matte lipstick I've...
If you follow my Instagram and Twitter feeds, you'll already know that last week I got to do something quite amazing and magical. After thirteen years in "the business" I'm not that easily impressed by fashion or beauty stuff (I've worn a lot of fine dresses and had...
Oh, what a beautiful collaboration this is! I already adore l'Occitane's Amande range with its perfect green and white packaging and its warm, comforting scents, but throw a bit of ballet into the mix and you have something quite gorgeous. l'Occitane have teamed up...
