Best of 2019: My Skincare and Haircare Favourites

Best of 2019: My Skincare and Haircare Favourites

Here are my 2019 favourites for skincare and haircare, including the latest shampoo discovery that actually changes the entire feel of my hair and the skincare that'll make a proper difference to your beauty routine. I was going to do a bodycare version of this 2019...

My Five Best Summer Beauty Buys

My Five Best Summer Beauty Buys

Slipping in with my summer posts just before summer comes to an end - I'm nothing if not reliably tardy! I still haven't done my 2019 sunscreens roundup and I remember setting aside time at the end of April to write that... It's fortunate that the majority of my...

Bringing Favourites Back (Not SexyBack)

Bringing Favourites Back (Not SexyBack)

I'm toying with the idea of bringing my Favourites back. It's like bringing sexy back (Justin Timberland reference, because I'm down with the kids), except that it's videos with really good beauty products in, rather than a sultry man in a sharp suit singing about...

Autumn Favourites (Luxury and High Street)

Autumn Favourites (Luxury and High Street)

And so here it is, the Autumn Favourites video as promised. I'll now be doing my favourites videos seasonally, or with a theme - for example, "Haircare Favourites" or "Favourite Budget Bodycare". The seasonal favourites videos will be a light-hearted overview of the...

Favourites: August 2018

Favourites: August 2018

(links marked * are affiliate links, for more info see disclaimer below post) Well I'm not at all sure what happened to this video when I put it up on Youtube; the views crept in so slowly I thought that maybe I'd accidentally put some kind of explicit content warning...

Favourites: July 2018

Favourites: July 2018

Interesting fact: when I went to write the title of this post I couldn't remember what year we were in! I typed 2017, but that didn't look quite right and then I typed 2019 but that just seemed very unfamiliar and then my mind went blank and I simply couldn't recall...

Favourites: June 2018

Favourites: June 2018

In a Monthly Favourites first, I have included something that only appeared on the scene a few minutes before I started filming. In fact, when I think about it properly, it shouldn't even be in the June Favourites because I got it in July! Oh well, let's not split...

Beauty, Fashion and Home Favourites: May 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Home Favourites: May 2018

It's time for the May favourites. A mixed bag again, this month, as I'm featuring more beauty in the 5 Most-Used videos. So there are two beauty things (both of which you can read more about here on the blog, links below the video pane), one sort-of-beauty favourite...

Beauty, Fashion and Book Favourites: April 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Book Favourites: April 2018

It's a good Top 5 Favourite Things video, this month. I had time to really ponder my favourites, save the best of them into my brain and then build them up to almost mythical levels of amazingness. To be fair, Grace Timothy's book, Mum Face, is already actually at...

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: March 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: March 2018

It's safe to say this hasn't been the best month of my life; but then again, I think I said that about February, too, and I'm not sure whether March was slightly better or ever so slightly worse. So forgive me if my mind wasn't 100% attuned to remembering things to...

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: February 2018

Beauty, Fashion and Interiors Favourites: February 2018

I've changed the format of my favourites video, you may be interested to know. After the roaring success of my 17 Most Used Beauty Products of 2017 video, I decided to make the "most used" aspect a regular feature so that you could see exactly what I've been reaching...

Beauty Favourites: November 2017

Beauty Favourites: November 2017

Forgive the radio silence: I've been moving. I feel as though I've said that a lot over the last few years, but I'm hoping that this will be the last time. Actually, I can tell you that it will be the last time - there's no way I'm moving again. For a start, I'm in my...
