Quite Clinique-heavy, this video, but by total coincidence. It just so happened that the cleansing balm came to my attention at the same time as the utterly superb compact foundation and then I had been testing the new Repairwear eye cream which fit quite well with...
I thought that I'd share with you my current foundation "routine". Obviously it varies a little from time to time; I adapt it to suit the weather, how my skin's looking and the products that I want to test out, but this is the general gist of it. I've used a radiance...
This video is about my wardrobe essentials - coats, shoes, jewellery and good jeans. If you've followed me for a while then you've probably seen a lot of these things before, but I thought that it might be useful to recap on my favourite, most-used things. I'm going...
A voiceover video for you because I can't yet talk for more than two minutes without breaking out into the most unladylike, honking cough. It's actually surprisingly difficult, when making videos, to get all of the different elements to come together without error; to...
I'm really quite ill at the moment - a cough-cold turned into what I think was flu which then developed into some kind of horrendous sickness bug. Throw in a few extra maladies which I won't go into and you have a thoroughly broken-down Ruth. I feel as though my body...
I made this video to mark an interesting occasion: 100,000 subscribers on Youtube. I say "interesting" because I honestly didn't set out to make Youtube videos - A Model Recommends, for me, was mostly about the writing. I made little product review videos to embed...
I'm considering (possibly unwisely) having my hair cut. I always want to get my haircut once I've grown it long, it's a vicious cycle that I fear I'll never really escape. I get easily bored with my hair and I'm also terrible at making the effort to style it, so when...
Following on from the diet tips video (see here for that) we have my top five fitness and exercise tips. All common sense, again, with a few rambling old thoughts thrown in for good measure. I'm on a bit of a fitness kick at the moment - I want to try lots of new...
Sorry, I look a bit moody here don't I? I do smile but I never catch it on camera properly for a stills shot. I always get myself mid-grin looking like someone who's escaped from an institution. Oh well. It won't affect your enjoyment of the video, I hope - it's an...
Are you keeping up with all of the brilliant recipes coming out with Feel Good Food? There's one a week! I've been filming again this week - another eight recipes - so lots more to keep you going. I know that many of you love cooking, so I hope that you find these...
I wanted to do a bit of a perky-skin tan video this week, what with all the snow here in the UK. It's easy to feel pasty and pale and sometimes nice to look a little sunkissed even if summer is ridiculously far away. I have a little colour on my face to begin with as...
I pretty much stuck to the same makeup look every night that I was away on holiday - boring, I know, but I just couldn't be bothered to play around. I had only taken a few key items away with me, anyway, and had done on purpose so that I couldn't be tempted to do any...
