Fancy a delve into my springtime makeup bag? Why does that sound so dirty? Is it just me? This is what happens when I spend days editing content all by myself without any sensible adult conversation... You should know that I very rarely change my makeup looks...
I took a little makeup bag with me on an overnight trip a couple of months ago and then when I got home again from my travels I forgot to unpack it. I only happened upon it by total fluke, the other week, when I went searching for one of those sticky clothes rollers...
I think that one of my all-time favourite foundations has been knocked from its winner's podium: I've finally found a longwear makeup base that I love more than Lancome's Teint Idole Ultra Wear. It's - wait for it - Lancome's Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care & Glow....
Arriving in London with a makeup bag that had apparently been packed by a drunk baboon forced me to be a bit creative with my products. I honestly have no idea how I ended up with four bronzers and two foundations but absolutely no brow stuff, no lipstick and only one...
I've made some little tweaks to my makeup routine and committed them to video: one of the changes involves my eyebrows, and you might already know about that one, but the other four are relatively new and snazzy. I know that the suspense will be killing you, so let's...
First post of 2023 and it's straight in with my current makeup routine and some incredible new makeup discoveries. I don't use the word incredible lightly, either: some of these products have completely changed my makeup routine and had my husband asking questions...
This trend for the dribbling of skincare products directly onto the face really bemuses me. Ditto foundation dribbling. Pipettes are enough of a faff to use when you drop the product into the palm of your hand, why on earth would you ever attempt to pipe the product...
At the very real risk of boring myself to death with the same makeup look over and over again I thought I had better jiggle things up a bit. There's nothing wrong with "sticking to what suits you" when it comes to putting your maquillage on but sometimes there's a...
I've been doing some quick little makeup videos on Instagram and Youtube and thought I'd start to share them here. I love before and afters, the transformation from normal to glam or from washed-out to a bit more lively. And this video just shows you the process in...
Here's my current makeup routine, including a rediscovered foundation that's perfect for the summer months (ultra-glowy but lightweight and non-greasy) and what is possibly my all-time favourite mascara. I'm going to break it down into steps for you, but please do...
Hello! It's been a while. The month-long pause to "write a book and spend quality time with the family" seemed to very quickly and easily turn into a three-and-a-half-month break from the blog that has proved quite difficult to come back from. I was planning a bit of...
I have a new eye makeup tutorial for you with some top tips for creating a foolproof smokey eye. This tutorial is in collaboration with Boots who are running a campaign called "Eyes on the Prize", encouraging people to try bold new eye looks for the party season. With...
