I saw this little feature on BeautyBay the other day and thought that it was well worth a mention. I know the concept of 'splitting' value packs and gifts is a pretty obvious one, but it's not something that you'd usually see a retailer promoting! You could 'split'...
Interesting, I think, that 'The Slap' has been adapted for television. It will be aired in a ten-part series from this Thursday on BBC4. If you've read 'The Slap', you'll know that the subject matter is quite uneasy; a man slaps a misbehaving child (not his own, not...
I have only just read the bottle properly and realised that this calming mist can also be used on the body - what a bonus! I had wondered. One supposes that if something is gentle enough to spray onto bedlinen, it's gentle enough to spray onto skin, but you can never...
I wouldn't usually love a video enough to embed it here on A Model Recommends (unless it's one of my own, naturally! Hahaha...) but this just absolutely blew me away. Make sure you watch it, it's quite an eyeopener! Just a few questions: 1) Is this is the bloke from...
I got a little put off writing about fragrance after my (quite frankly terrifying) foray onto Basenotes, the forum for people who take perfume extremely seriously. But then I thought, what the hell! If I want to use layman's terms to describe my perfumes I will! Part...
I love my Apple Magic Mouse, I truly do. I don't have to do any scrolling or manual zooming in, I don't have to click a button to move a page forward or back - everything is done with a small swoosh of the fingertips without having to even move my hand from the...
Scenting my office this week: Jonathan Ward's Santissima Amalfi Candle. I'm by no means a candle connoisseur and so I shall keep it brief and say this: it's very potent. Even unlit, it is managing to overpower the various battling odours surrounding my desk, which...
To become a model you must get an agent. Not just because that's how you get to go on castings and book jobs, but for your safety and well-being. An agent acts as a 'buffer' between yourself and the client - if there's a problem between you and a client, then the...
Er - irons have moved on a bit since 1998, haven't they? I say 1998 because that was - honestly - the last time I picked up an iron. I must have been ironing something for my after-uni office job that I used to do. More on that another time. Anyway, since 1998 I have...
I spotted this on FeelUnique and thought that it was quite good - you can't get Clarins 'Gift with Purchase' that often online. This is a 100ml Renew-Plus Body Serum and a 50ml Hand and Nail Treatment and a little 'Vanity Purse'. Am I the only one who would prefer it...
Apparently, people queued from 6am to get into the new Westfield Stratford City. 6AM! Why? I ask that question not because I think that Westfield isn't worth queueing for, but because at 10.30am I waltzed straight in and up the escalator! I mean, it was busy - rammed...
**UPDATE: the winner of this prize is "ANDREEA A" who has been contacted by email! Well done Andreea! xx** To celebrate their 125th Anniversary, Avon have recreated one of their first ever fragrances - Little Dot. Originally, in 1886 (!), Little Dot was a gift set of...
