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...
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...
I'm trying something a bit new on the video front: A Week In My Life. It's a sort of scrapbook montage of things that I get up to during the week, but it's all very informal and unstructured. As you know, I'm not a natural vlogger. I find the process quite...
People of Kent, a question: is it always so horrifically bad trying to get back into London through the Dartford Tunnel? Every time I've done it there have been huge queues - a few odd times over the years, but four times in the space of the last two weeks. Always...
I've spent so long dithering about the things I want to change in my videos that I completely forgot to post up one that I'd already made! Thank you, by the way, for all of your wonderful comments on the video-making post - I'm reading through them now and they're so...
Some of my summer beauty essentials for you here, all neatly packaged into one (relatively) concise video. Note that I use the word "essential" very loosely; perhaps the only real summer beauty essential is sunscreen, followed by a good, robust cleanser to get it off...
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...
Look, I've already posted this video over on my baby blog, The Uphill, but it takes me ages to do these "day in the life" videos and so I'm touting it out. It's an entire day in my life with "two under two" (New Baby Ted was just nine weeks old!) and has cameos from...
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...
I indulged in a spot of clickbaiting at the weekend. I simply couldn't resist it. Mainly because I was looking forward to the comments from people utterly incensed that I would dare use the word "sex" in a video title (disappointingly few, I must say - I obviously...
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...
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...
