You must watch this What's In My Makeup Bag video, if only to see my miraculous hair transformation in the last twenty seconds! In one frame I have quite an uninspiring 'do - I'd just let my hair down from a mini-ponytail - and in the next, I have volume not...
In this video I show you the easiest smokey eye ever. I realise that's quite a claim, but I honestly can't see how an eye look could be any simpler than this: you draw on the eye crayon (it even uses a crayon, for Pete's sake!) and then smudge it out with a brush. It...
My last post (for now!) on fair/foolproof/hint-of-sun bronzers. I realise that I'm at the risk of boring to tears anyone who doesn't need, want or suit them, but at the same time I've been trying to work systematically through my beauty backlog and Subtle...
My lovely sister-in-law came to visit me over the Easter weekend and, as she's a true makeup junkie, I decided to have a delve into my various storage boxes and drawers and offload some of my unused cosmetics. (Note that I say unused and not unwanted: I want...
The title of this post suggests that you're about to see a load of limited edition makeup from the Spring 2017 collections: not so. Including the season and the year at the end of the title is just a way of me giving some sort of "time stamp" to a feature that I'd...
Well I do hope that you're all having a lovely little break? I'm afraid I'm doing a bit of a fast-forward to the future (albeit near future) and talking about the New Year - or New Year's Eve to be more specific - and some glitzy, shiny makeup that'll get you in the...
My top winter palettes, on video for your viewing pleasure; perfect picks if you like to treat yourself to a little glitzy makeup number before the party season. Or, y'know, at a push, give people presents, but I do feel that these are too nice to earmark as gifts!...
I've been going a bit russety around the eyes for this year's Autumn Makeup Look. (I say this year's look as though I do a different look every year, but as we all know, all of my "looks" tend to be a subtle variation on "natural" or "smokey eye"!) I always...
The "Ten Under £10" edition of the Weekly Window Shop was so very popular that I decided to make it a regular, standalone feature. Because who doesn't want a round-up of brilliant and affordable stuff? Ten Under £10 will concentrate mostly on beauty, but if there's a...
I was in Paris with the beautiful skincare brand Darphin the other week and decided that instead of having a blissful, baby-free lie-in at the hotel (Le Meurice), I'd set my alarm for 6am and get some filming done. What a berk. As it turned out, it didn't get light...
Here it is: my verdict on the Victoria Beckham makeup collaboration with Estée Lauder. What I like, what I don't - what I'd spend cash on and, importantly, how I'd wear it all. There's a video at the bottom of the page, which is possibly the key element of this...
I told you this week would be rather heavy on the Chanel, but I couldn't write about their amazing Nail Gloss without then going on to reveal the ins and outs of the new autumn launch, Le Rouge Collection No.1. (If you're astute and read between the lines, here,...
