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...
Here begins my epic task of catching up on all of the stuff I didn't manage to post before the end of 2019, and I'm going to start with a bit of a Chanel update. Because who doesn't love a dose of double-c luxury to kick of the year? Before Christmas I was invited on...
Why is it that when I have an early wakeup call, I simply cannot get to sleep? And by the way, I'm talking early-early here, when the owls are still hooting and the foxes are still tearing open the bin bags and rooting for chicken bones. Witching hour early, 3.30am...
Oh! Where did the posts for weeks 27 and 28 go? I'm so sure that I wrote them! I also filmed some vlogs, but I have no idea where the footage is. Perhaps I'm finally going stark raving bonkers. It's been on the cards for a while... What's been happening, you might...
Here it is: the women's Christmas Gift Guide. I find that women are much, much easier to buy for than men. My friends like almost anything that smells or looks or feels nice. I like almost everything that smells or looks or feels nice. I honestly don't know how people...
I suspect there'll be some sort of online meltdown on the 10th January because - brace yourselves - that's the day that Caroline Hirons' first ever skincare product will go on sale. If you are an avid Hirons follower (to be honest, I don't know of any other type -...
Well this is an unusual one: a moisturiser that feels velvety to the touch but seems to melt into fresh-feeling perfection the moment it hits the skin. And then, despite this gorgeous fresh feel, manages to keep oiliness in check as well as hydrate. What is this...
I don't usually indulge in "dupes" posts, but I've been beavering away trying to find a good alternative to the red shade in Chanel's Candeur et Experience palette (shade on the far left above), a palette which sold out, unsurprisingly, almost the moment it landed on...
Firstly, thank you so much for all of your comments on the previous VBAC post. I really found them very useful, and somehow quite reassuring - it's easy to get lost in your own thoughts and think that nobody else is in the same boat as you. But it seems that the whole...
My top winter palettes, on video for your viewing pleasure; perfect picks if you like to treat yourself to a little glitzy makeup number before the party season. Or, y'know, at a push, give people presents, but I do feel that these are too nice to earmark as gifts!...
If you're reading this then it means that I'm lying somewhere (probably on the bed) in the manner of a beached whale and can't be bothered to open my laptop to write a proper post. I'm most likely eating something non-nutritious and wearing my new red-checked...
Well it's all go over here! A walking baby (yes, I know, she's a toddler now) and another one kicking around in the proverbial oven waiting for its debut appearance in approximately twelve weeks time. Argh! I think, when New Baby arrives, that I'll do a sort of...
The Beyond Perfecting Foundation and Concealer from Clinique has seen some love here on the blog before, but it's never had its own standalone review. So here we are - if you, like me, were disappointed with the new Superbalanced Silk Makeup (full review here) then...
I was once fitted for a head-to-toe latex suit in a fetish shop. I was to play a superhero in a TV advert (sadly it never happened because I got the flu, if I remember rightly) and I needed to be rubberised - everything from the neck down - for my superhero costume....
I've been using these extra-special cleansers on rotation, recently, as a bit of a winter kick-start for my skin but also as a proper "time out" sort of treat. They're not cleansers in the traditional sense, you see - you wouldn't use them to remove your makeup and...
