Yes, the annual candle video is here again. Flame-flickering, wick-smouldering, wax-dripping pornography for those who want their home fragrances hot. (WHERE THE HELL DID THAT JUST COME FROM? You can tell it's nearly the end of the year, can't you?) I love making the...
I have to say: haircare does not make the ideal Christmas present. There's something distinctly unglamorous about even the most lush and effective hair products - I suppose it's just hard to package them up in a sexy way! I have, however, done a little rummaging...
Oh yes, oh yes. I am busy scheduling posts for the next three weeks so that I can turn off my computer, cover it with a dust sheet and not switch it back on until mid-January. I will be checking in, of course, on my iPad and making sure that everyone's OK and not...
Don't be scared - we're not about to embark on a techy-talk here, it's just my run-down of the brilliant gadgetry that has landed at AMR HQ this year. A couple of the gadgets (Babyliss Big Hair and the Kindle) are pre-2012, but no matter; they're the ones that are...
I'm often a little wary of travel brushes; some of the applicators in the mini sets are fiddly and too small to be of any real use. Not so, thankfully, with the Laura Mercier brushes in her Deluxe Travel Brush Collection. The quality is just perfect and really, the...
Cheesy photo alert! I took that with a bad back, as well... Please excuse the quite random zooming and refocusing on this video, and also the weird constant thumping noise in the background. You just can't get the staff these days, and also I had the camera on a...
The part of the gift guide that many look forward to; it's the cute small gifts and stocking fillers section! Hope you like it - I've included some non-beauty bits and pieces too! I especially love the Liberty Hello Kitty things at Boots and also the little Stila...
If there's just one of my videos that you decide to click "play" on, then do make it this one. It has magical shrinking perfumes, sound effects and fake snow and everything. (If it was a project for GCSE Film Studies (or similar) then it would definitely get...a C or...
OK, here it is folks! The first Christmas Gift Guide. I'm only doing a few this year - Luxury, which is this one, Mini, which is coming up (smaller gifts and stocking fillers) and then one on the Christmas cosmetic collections and fragrances. The last two aren't...
At the risk of sending you all to sleep, I'm going to talk about Hibernation again! You did catch my wintery, sleepy video didn't you? If you didn't, the post and video are HERE. I just wanted to revisit some of the products that I included in the video; This...
On Saturday I purchased this brilliant cushion from Rory Dobner. I have wanted one for ages, but they always seemed to be sold out! Now it's winging its way to me and I am pleased as punch. It will make a brilliant focal point in my bedroom - it's very Alice in...
Yes, the Christmas Gifts are starting to seep in I'm afraid! For the bulk of them, you'll have to wait for the Christmas Gift Guide, but there are a few things that I can't resist popping in a bit early. You may well know of my obsession with miniatures by now - if...
