Watch the video below to witness a full-on disintegration of my mental faculties. It happens at around three or four o'clock every day and apparently this isn't a temporary pregnancy thing: it stays after the baby has been born! Please someone tell me that their brain...
The Burberry AW15 Makeup Look – Effortless and Cool.
I've been working for Burberry* for the past couple of days, following the behind-the-scenes "journey" of the makeup look for the AW15 show. You'll notice, if you scan back through previous Fashion Week posts, that it's the Burberry show that always grabs my...
Dior Rouge Balm for Plumpy, Tinted Lips.
I mentioned this tinted balm right at the end of last week's "What's In My Makeup Bag" video but have used it so much that I thought it deserved a proper post. I hadn't tried a Dior Rouge Balm (or Baume!) before this one - where on earth have I been? I've looked...
How to Contour. Or Not.
I did a little contouring kit comparison over on my Telegraph "hub"; Clinique Chubby Contour sticks vs the Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate. Tom Ford's "S&I" was one of the first contouring products that I remember seeing on a cosmetics counter; now the world is...
What’s In My Makeup Bag?
I went to my Mum's for the weekend and in a quiet little moment to myself, thought I'd film a "What's in my Makeup Bag" video. I haven't done one in ages and I wanted to show you some of my current essentials, though I am something of a creature of habit and so you'll...
The Five Minute Makeup Challenge…
Just a bit of fun; I was tagged in the "five minute makeup challenge" by fellow beauty Youtuber, Marnie Goldberg, and decided to accept. I have never done one of these "tag" videos before, usually because they involve tasting weird foods or getting your boyfriend to...
January Beauty Favourites
This came around quickly, didn't it? I'm still recovering from cooking the Christmas dinner! January Beauty Favourites; we have some hair stuff, some nice morsels of makeup and the results of my sponsored Olay skincare trial*. I also have another giveaway for you (UK...
New on the Chic and Sleek Makeup Scene: Delilah Cosmetics
A new makeup brand that could prove to be rather irresistible; Delilah Cosmetics. Chic, heavy packaging, wearable, flattering shades and beautiful textures that sit lightly on the skin but that still manage to do a brilliant job of enhancing features and adding the...
Behind the Scenes at the MinMax Beauty Shoot
A few weeks ago I did a shoot for the amazing new online magazine MinMax Beauty. MinMax is the brainchild of top photographer Elisabeth Hoff and is as glossy and gorgeous as magazines get; every shoot is perfectly executed and has some kind of twist or unusual element...
October Skincare and Beauty Favourites
Is it me, or does the last beauty favourites video only seem as though it went up about a week ago? I feel as though I've been sucked into some kind of space/time vortex! Oh well. Some nice new discoveries, this month, including the excellent exfoliating facial pads...
How to Cover Dark Circles
As promised, a video dedicated to undereye circles and ways of disguising them. My dark circles are ridiculous today - so much so that I'm almost regretting filming the makeup video when I did, at the end of last week. It would have all looked so much more dramatic if...
An Indulgent Autumn Makeup Look
I was tinkering about with some gorgeous Tom Ford makeup over the weekend, experimenting with a few products that I want to include in upcoming videos. I loved the autumnal feel of the photograph above; warm, slightly tawny and beautifully glowing. The skin is less...
