I'm back with another Beauty Reviews video; this time it's Dior's new Diorskin Star Foundation that takes centre stage, along with a brilliant primer from Smashbox and an old makeup favourite, Pixi's Natural Brow Duo. I'll be talking about the Smashbox primer in...
This year Max Factor are celebrating 100 Years of Glamour. It has been a whole hundred years since Mr Max Factor (real person!) launched his first ever cosmetic, his Flexible Grease Paint Foundation. Max Factor was a bit of a mover and a shaker in the makeup world; he...
I really need to get some kind of video-posting system going; I publish a video and then it takes me about five weeks to write about it! I am mid-way through a website re-structure (if you ever come to the site during the witching hours (2am-4am) you'll no doubt see...
1) I saw this article in Stylist magazine and thought that it was just brilliant; I hadn't heard of Life Hacks before but now I'm going to be sat there thinking them up all day! Life Hacks, according to Stylist, are little "tips and tricks to get rid of the tiny...
I asked Lily from LilyPebbles.co.uk to tell me about her favourite summery nail polishes and then - try not to die of excitement here - I told her all about mine! Granted it's not one of my top ten conversational topics of choice, but we were supposed to be chatting...
A much-requested video; half the world now seems to be obsessed with the mysterious delights that are kept locked up in the legendary French Pharmacie. I don't tend to go pharmacy shopping as much as I used to, and that is mainly because the things that I used to...
I made a nice little bronzing video for The Telegraph this week; I was trying to channel 1990's Kate Moss, so very dusty bronzed skin with nothing much on the eyes or lips. I put to use one of my favourite summertime products, Chanel's Tan de Soleil, which is a cream...
Here we are once more; monthly favourites. I have Caroline Hirons with me again so you'll need to prepare yourself for a fair amount of chatting. In Caroline's skincare video, at any rate - I edited the makeup video down from thirty-two minutes to about nine, but...
Just as a bit of fun; I filmed an "Ask Me Anything" video. You ask, I answer. (Within reason, of course! Ha!) I'll be doing another one soon, so click through and leave your questions on Youtube, or you can pop them in the comments section below if that's easier. I'll...
Some holiday (or pre-holiday) skincare essentials. The VO5 Hot Oil is a bit of an anomaly because it's for your hair and not for your face, but it was orange and summery and looked good in my photographs! Hot Oil is one of those beauty products that seems very old...
Some of you may be bored to tears at the prospect of watching me talk through a series of empty plastic shower gel bottles and toothpaste tubes, others may be overjoyed. Whichever camp you're in, you may find it quite interesting to see which products have actually...
Sorry, I was late with the video and I'm even later with this post! It's quite a mish-mash, this favourites video; jewellery, sunscreens, a pair of ballet pumps... You can read more about the wonderful lightweight sunscreens in last week's post here and I'll be doing...
