I have been whizzing through a few books recently as I have been sat on the tube quite a lot (which is when I get most of my reading done!) - I have just realised that 'sat on the tube' could sound quite odd/rude to some people, so I'll quickly clarify that I mean...
Prepare for a rant, because this angry person recommends... 1) Not ever upgrading Mac software unless it has been properly tested and glitches have been ironed-out. I'm talking about OSX Lion, which has rendered my £2000 iMac pretty much unusable. I'm going to have to...
I have just registered for my free limited edition Burberry Body fragrance sample - Burberry are giving 40,000 of them away! All you have to do is fill in your details on the Facebook Page here: Burberry Facebook The fragrance doesn't actually launch until September...
Sorry to those of you who got a mix of old and new posts on yesterday's email - there may well be an odd mix today, too, but after this is should be plain sailing! (And hopefully this will be the last boring admin post on the matter, too!) Emails will now be sent...
Duh. I ran a little giveaway for The Forum users to win mini shampoos from Lavera, but it was only open to people with UK addresses... So how I was expecting to randomly pick 20 people from my list of registered forum users without knowing who was UK or not, I have no...
Errrrr - LOOK WHAT CAME INTO MY INBOX LAST NIGHT! Just as I was contemplating how to write up my Educogym interim post (results after the first twelve days) this email literally pinged through and I couldn't believe my eyes! Educogym are offering the twelve-day plan...
Those in the UK (and probably worldwide, I should think) will have seen coverage of the London riots on television, heard about them on the radio or read about them in the papers. I sincerely hope that all of you are safe and well. As an East-Londoner I'm pretty...
"Crikey! I haven't done a Friday Flash Review for absolutely ages! Better make this a good one then.... What can I write about? Beautiful skin? Shiny hair? The newest, glossiest lipstick? Hmmm..... Bad breath! Let's not go too far into the whole bad breath thing -...
It's that time of year again - the Cosmo Blog Awards! I almost died of a heart-attack last year when somebody tweeted me to tell me that I was on the short-list, so it would be lovely to have that near-death feeling once more. (Joke!) Please can you all do me the...
Excuse me if I get a little overexcited here, but this (above) is where I'm off to in the not-so-distant future. (I might even be there right now - it depends when I hit the 'publish' button!) Sun Rocks, Santorini, Greece. Only for three days, but still - amazing. I...
"Hahaha! Just laughing out loud like a lunatic about my choice of photograph - doesn't tell you much, does it? This is the new Mega Impact Eyeliner from Avon, all set to replace the wondrous Supershock Gel liner. In fact I have a sneaking suspicion that it has already...
I have noticed that more often than not, eye creams don't have an in-built SPF. I always find this rather confusing, as the skin around the eyes is thinner, more prone to damage and signs of ageing - surely if there was anywhere you'd want an SPF, it'd be here! I...
