I just can't seem to keep away from favourites videos. I stop doing them and then I start again, always returning to make just one more. I stop because I think that they're generally a bit formulaic, but then, a few months down the line, I start to miss making them. I...
Best Budget Beauty Under £20 – with Nadine Baggott
It's Best Budget Beauty time again and who better to join me in my bargain-hunting exploits than the self-confessed dupe-obsessive Nadine Baggott? Nadine has decades of experience as a beauty editor and presenter and spends an unholy amount of time chasing down...
What’s In My Makeup Bag? The Time Capsule
After writing off my "daily essentials" makeup bag, thinking I had lost it at a hotel, I was excited to find that it was, in fact, stowed away right at the back of the glovebox in my car. Behind the owner's manual and the pile of old MOT certificates and the broken...
My Current Skincare Routine: Winter 2020
I've made some quite significant changes to my skincare routine since Christmas and so I thought it might be time for an update. This wasn't the easiest update video to film, mostly because the issue of the hero product's price-tag was hanging over me like a spectre...
Soft AF: Trying on the Basics
I did an Abercrombie & Fitch order last week because the knees had gone through on my favourite skinny jeans. To be quite honest with you, I'm no longer sure that superskinny jeans are really the best cut for me anymore, but they seem to be the only jeans made...
Best of 2019: My Skincare and Haircare Favourites
Here are my 2019 favourites for skincare and haircare, including the latest shampoo discovery that actually changes the entire feel of my hair and the skincare that'll make a proper difference to your beauty routine. I was going to do a bodycare version of this 2019...
How To Do A Glow Job
Stand down, Outraged of Welwyn Garden City, I said How To Do A Glow Job not blow job! To be honest, I'm almost forty and still couldn't tell you how to do the latter that well, so the chances of me writing a post about it (or - urgh - making a video) are slim. Hohoho....
Gold Digger, Morning Breath and a New Red Lip
We need to talk about BBC's drama Gold Digger, but also about a hot red lipstick. Weird mix, admittedly, but I got distracted halfway through recording my makeup video and ended up talking about Tom Hardy, morning breath and implausible storylines. Sorry about that....
Cinematic Views and a Mouse’s Back
I interrupt the gift guide frenzy to bring you some videos that have somehow slipped the net, here on A Model Recommends. Firstly, this house update and then - perhaps tomorrow if I get a move on - a rambling makeup try-on with a fancy new red lipstick and a chat...
What’s In My Makeup Bag? Autumn 2019
Ah, there's nothing that marks the passing of the seasons quite like one of my makeup bag videos. You could set your clock by them. (I'm being facetious, obviously; I never get these seasonal makeup videos out at the right time.) This (un)timely makeup offering is for...
When Grand Designs Go Wrong…
I must admit that the title sounds slightly click-baity, but I filmed my latest house update when I was still waiting for the big glass doors to arrive and all building work had come to a total halt - it felt very appropriate. Like that bit in Grand Designs when...
Vlog: It’s Very Stiff
Good God, this is my lowest innuendo-based titling moment yet. I'm afraid that titles have never been my strong point - perhaps I should hire someone who writes catchy titles for a living. Someone with a good grasp of popular key words and most-searched categories and...
