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...
To say that I haven't been getting out much is a bit of an understatement. I feel as though I've been locked in my office for months, though it's really only a matter of weeks if I count it up properly. Still, I've been doing the intense sort of work that means you...
I'll start this post with a bit of an emergency bargain announcement, because it might not be around for long and you'll kick yourselves if you miss it. The Rodial Airbrush, an amazing luxury foundation brush with a dome-shaped head and firm, densely-packed bristles...
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...
Award for the most unlikely makeup hero of the year, so far, goes to Chanel's new Baume Essentiel. The transparent version. (There are two.) This is one of the most low-key radiance balms you'll ever find; it's so subtle - Chanel's word is discreet, which I love -...
I wasn't at all prepared for this video; I was on an overnight stay at Heckfield Place (lovely new hotel, incidentally) and in the morning decided, with just a smidgen of a hangover, that I'd film myself putting on all of the makeup in my makeup bag. It was an odd...
I've been raving on about this Becca Ombre Nudes palette for a while now and so - at the risk of over-Becca-ing you this week (see lipstick post here) - I wanted to just do a quick run-down on why I like it so much and why I think it's a good buy. There are plenty of...
I had a can of full sugar coke before filming this video, so you'll have to excuse the tendency towards frivolity. I've managed to get my Coca Cola consumption down to just one can a week, now, and I try to "take it" (like medicinal waters) on a work day when I need a...
Here are the contents of my makeup bag, accurate to two weeks ago today. In all honesty, I'm not a huge fan of the Camo Luxe palette and so that has since been swapped out (for Tilbury's Vintage Vamp, if you must know, which is one of the greatest eye quads of all...
Best Beauty Buys with Nadine Baggott. There are a lot of Bs in that title - it's a good job Nadine wasn't named Brenda! I have two very professional, completely serious videos for you to catch up on. I promise you that there are absolutely no rude bits whatsoever and...
Here's the classic red lip but with a new way to wear it. Which makes it the un-classic red lip, I suppose. It's soft and diffused, the edges are patted down and blurry - it's easier and more wearable than the traditional hard-edged, punchy red lip but still vibrant...
(links marked * are affiliate links, for more info see disclaimer below post) Here we go with the most-used beauty products of the month, that month being August 2018. Confusing, I know, when it's now September but I have to have a bit of time to film and edit these...
