There are some real product raves in this month's video roundup, but if you're an avid reader here on A Model Recommends I'm afraid you'll have already heard me bang on about quite a lot of them. Gems such as the Goddess Skin mask from Charlotte Tilbury (here),...
I will readily admit that I've gone a bit gah-gah for the idea of summer; I can't wait to sit in my garden (if I ever get back to my house to sit in my garden!) and feel the warm sun on me as I quietly work my way through the pile of novels I have waiting. (Obviously...
I've been playing about with the Chanel Summer 2015 Makeup Collection - Méditerranée - and am completely head over heels with pretty much all of it. But especially - and this was something of a surprise to me - the "Stylo" eyeshadows, which are basically very...
I decided to follow some instructions (for once!) because there were some application tips that came with the new Illamasqua Gel Sculpt Blusher. Tips from the top woman herself, founder of the Illamasqua brand and makeup artist extraordinaire, Alex Box. She said this:...
Just a very quick look at what I had on my face (makeup and skincare) when I shot Tuesday's Colab Competition video intro. I did it all in a bit of a rush because I needed to get the video out early in the morning, but I was nevertheless incredibly pleased at the way...
There were quite a few people asking about my skin in my latest videos, so I thought I'd quickly run through the makeup I had on. It was a bit of a glowing skin "Dream Team" to be quite honest - all of the below photographs were taken with just natural daylight (they...
There are two beauty favourites videos, this month - one on skincare and one on makeup - and I filmed them nice and early. I'm trying to do everything nice and early, just in case I get a sudden late-pregnancy energy deficit - or, scarier thought - I go into labour...
Look, I thought that "Coco" was my favourite red from Chanel's new Rouge Coco lipstick collection, but it's becoming very apparent that I may have changed my mind. Sorry. Regardez-vous the very bright, very punchy "Arthur". Is it not an absolute delight? It warms the...
Well this is a nifty little number: a non-cakey, long-lasting, matte-but-not-flat foundation that comes in at less than seven quid. I don't usually get on with a lot of the cheaper foundations, but the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Matte applied and blended beautifully on...
Thank you so much to those who commented on my makeup in the Chanel Rouge Coco photographs; it's actually part of a look that I was filming for an upcoming Max Factor video! To give you a sneaky preview of what I had on my skin; I buffed in the Skin Luminizer...
I reviewed four of the newest foundation launches for The Telegraph last week; I've popped a link to the full video below so that you can see the face bases in action. Foundation reviews are quite tricky to do, because so much depends on skin type, tone and personal...
I can tell you that it is virtually impossible to do a still life photography shoot when you have a large and determined cat like Mr Bear in the house. There's something about the set-up - the pristine white foam background boards, the glossy, clean paper, the...
