Foundation Review: Code8 Radiate Beauty Balm

Foundation Review: Code8 Radiate Beauty Balm

I haven't reviewed a tinted moisturiser in a while so let's make a juicy little comeback with this lovely luxurious one; the Code8 Radiate Beauty Balm. Code8 haven't called it a tinted moisturiser but that's pretty much what it is - light to medium coverage in a...

Je Suis Pretty Bloody Relaxed

Je Suis Pretty Bloody Relaxed

I've just been away for four days and I didn't do any work at all! Four whole days without my laptop! Taking childbirth out of the equation (and those necessary, blurry months either side) I haven't spent that much time entirely work-free since I went to Florida for...

My Five Best Summer Beauty Buys

My Five Best Summer Beauty Buys

Slipping in with my summer posts just before summer comes to an end - I'm nothing if not reliably tardy! I still haven't done my 2019 sunscreens roundup and I remember setting aside time at the end of April to write that... It's fortunate that the majority of my...

Bringing Favourites Back (Not SexyBack)

Bringing Favourites Back (Not SexyBack)

I'm toying with the idea of bringing my Favourites back. It's like bringing sexy back (Justin Timberland reference, because I'm down with the kids), except that it's videos with really good beauty products in, rather than a sultry man in a sharp suit singing about...

Foundation Review: Maybelline Dream Urban Cover

Foundation Review: Maybelline Dream Urban Cover

It fills me with absolute beauty joy when I find an affordable face base that behaves like a much pricier one, so I'm going to plough straight on in with my review of the Maybelline Dream Urban Cover foundation. I was going to do a comparison post and review it...

Giveaway: Track Your Exposure to UV, Pollution and Pollen!

Well here's a little something that gets my gadget-geek side a bit overexcited; La Roche-Posay have just launched an incredibly useful piece of tech called My Skin Track UV. It's a wearable sensor that measures your exposure to UV, pollution, pollen and humidity and...

Life Update: Red Wine and Muffin Puppets

Life Update: Red Wine and Muffin Puppets

I always have such good intentions for this monthly life update post (in fact even writing the first part of this sentence seems very deja vu), but however hard I try to do things in advance I always end up compiling it at the nth hour on the 3rd day of the month. (It...

Elemis have launched two new moisturisers into their Peptide 24/7 range; a clever, multi-tasking day cream - Peptide4 Adaptive Day Cream* - and an overnight mask called the Plumping Pillow Facial*, which must be one of the most inviting product names I've ever seen....

The Seven Cs: Your Springtime Skincare Saviours

The Seven Cs: Your Springtime Skincare Saviours

We've had a miniature heatwave here in the UK, which you'll know about if you live in the UK, obviously, but if you don't then perhaps won't. I mention this mini pre-summer (four days of uninterrupted sun in Somerset, temperatures reaching approximately twenty four...

Finding Your Perfect Moisturiser with Estée Lauder | AD

This week I've been testing a selection of moisturisers from Estée Lauder in an attempt to find my perfect fit. In the interests of full transparency, I already had a firm favourite (keep on reading), but being the highly scientific person I am (I'm not) I put my...

Skincare Review: Herbivore Pink Cloud Cream

As I scrape the very last remnants of cream from the bottom of the glass jar, I find myself missing Herbivore's Pink Cloud Rosewater Moisture Cream before it has even reached the recycling box. Unusual for me, because quite a lot of the time I'm in a rush to try the...
