I have recently rediscovered Rimmel's natural bronzer in shade 021, "sunlight". I first bought this on my Honeymoon when I had forgotten to pack a bronzer (duh) and I didn't want to fork out for an expensive one when I had about ten thousand of them at home. The...
Project Sshhh, AKA Keep Calm and Shop!
YAY! I have revealed Project Sshhh today; it is none other than top online luxury shopping guide, Keep Calm and Shop! I have been beavering away all on my lonesome, building a website and filling it with lots of lovely ideas for gifts and there's also a whole section...
Need a Haircut?
Need a haircut? A little trim? My very talented friend Giles needs hair models (any age, men and women) and is offering a cut and blowdry for £10 at the Fenchurch Street (City of London) branch of Toni & Guy! Hurrah! He's already fully qualified but is doing his...
Fabulous Nails Inc Varnishes! Free!
Oh dear. I feel terribly, terribly guilty that I have been ignoring you all - I have been working twenty-hour days on Project Ssshh, which I only started as something fun for you all but have now made into some kind of monstrous time-sapper. Anyway, I hope you...
Elemis Temperley Safari Traveller
I held of buying this set because I wasn't sure on the bag size or quality... Why did I wait so long?! It's amazing! Considering that the value of the products inside actually covers the cost (there's a Marine Cream 30ml that alone is worth forty-something pounds!)...
Sensodyne Repair & Protect
Does anyone else have toothpaste wars in their household? He likes the stripy paste, you like the white one. He likes a pump-action bottle, you think it's ridiculous because it falls into the sink every ten seconds. You like a liquorice flavour one and then it...
Clarins Mosaique Bronzing Compact
Another gorgeous, easy to use bronzer. This one has a whole mosaic (hence the name) of varying bronzer shades on a pale background and the resulting effect is very pretty and fool-proof. Shade-wise, the final 'depth' of colour is about the same as the Urban Decay...
Escentual Blog of the Week!
There's a very lovely write-up about A Model Recommends on the Escentual website. I really couldn't have said it better myself! Escentual Blog of the Week
Some Fluro Favourites
We're getting into 'Summer Proper', (hello? Rain? You can go away now!) and so I thought that I'd put together a few of my Fluro Favourites. Fluros are pretty hard to wear on your face, unless you're ten or going to a fancy dress party, but I've picked out a couple of...
Balance Me Super Wash
Everybody knows that beauty products bought as part of the grocery shop don't count - they're 'free' purchases. If they're in the same trolley as the bread and the dozen eggs, the packets of flour and boxes of cereal, the toilet freshener and the value pack of 4...
Sunglasses Makeup
I love my new YSL sunnies so much that I have dedicated a whole video to them! It occurred to me that we (or is it just me?) do makeup a little differently if we know that our sunglasses are going to stay on all day. Less focus on the eyes, more on the lips! Hope you...
Dior Blue Tie
Dior launch their Fall 2011 collection next month and it's really, really beautiful. I had a sneak preview yesterday and was particularly taken with the Blue Tie palette, a metal case containing four shadows and a lip-gloss. It is so unbelievably chic! Take a look at...
