I spent the majority of my allotted filming time for this October Favourites video clarting about with my hair, trying to arrange it so that I didn't look like a Cluedo character. (Miss Scarlett, if you're asking. There's something about blonde hair of a certain...
Beauty Favourites: September 2017
I filmed this month's beauty favourites on my new iPhone 8 and I'm actually quite pleased with the quality. One would hope that it would be good, considering the handset costs around the same as a small second-hand car, but it actually exceeded my expectations. Apart...
Beauty Favourites: August 2017
I'm still keeping myself amused with the bobbly-shafted Wonderball waver from Lee Stafford. Not in the biblical sense - let's keep things clean! - but it has been presenting me with plenty of opportunity for a bit of immature banter. "Have you felt my cool-touch...
Beauty Favourites: May 2017
There's rather a summery theme to this month's beauty favourites; it feels a little early in the year to be cracking out the sunscreens and the beachy scents but we've had a run of hot days and so I've been in all-out floaty dress and flip-flop mode. Talking of beachy...
Beauty Favourites: April 2017
Did you ever play a game when you were little called Kim's Game? We used to play it at Girl Guides. It probably has loads of different names and ways to play it, but our version was this: you'd have a tray with a load of objects on (things like pens and buttons and...
Beauty Favourites: March 2017
Back to the beauty favourites - a good mix of body, hair, skincare and makeup this month. Oh, and some panty liners thrown in for good measure. I deliberated for ages (ten minutes) over whether to include panty liners - they're not exactly the most glamorous of items...
February Favourites
The February Favourites, as promised; mostly beauty but then a couple of fashion finds that have cheered up my "capsule" wardrobe no end. (When I say capsule wardrobe, I mean it quite literally - I have only one pair of black leggings that don't hurt my c-section...
January Favourites
Excuse my blusher overload in this video - I got rather carried away testing that new Hourglass palette that everyone is raving about. (It's nice, very glowy, not for everyone. God forbid any of the powders catch you around the eye area - it's like putting a spotlight...
December Favourites
This video wasn't supposed to go up until Sunday, but something odd and enthusiastic happened with my Youtube scheduling, so here it is: the December favourites. I spend almost the entire video wearing hair rollers, which is a bit weird, but there are some real beauty...
November Favourites
There's a bumper skincare crop in this month's favourites, as promised. Not as bumper as it could be, but my legs had completely fallen asleep during the making of this video and then I got to that stage where the blood starts to flow back in and it's impossible...
October Favourites (Likes and Dislikes)
A few dislikes in this month's favourites video, because I know how you all like a little moan! You already know that Clinique's Superbalanced Makeup didn't quite float my boat, so that won't come as a surprise, but there are a couple of books this month that I really...
September Favourites
Another mixed-bag favourites video for you; this one has a harrowing book (sorry), some bump-covering dresses (niche!) and a few brilliant skin perfectors that'll give you a flawless, glowing complexion. (Special mention goes to the new Bourjois blurring concealer...
