This month's beauty favourites - and a book. You already know about the book - Career of Evil - because I wrote about it on Sunday, but it was worth an extra mention because I'm now 60% of the way through and it's brilliant. Very dark and disturbing, but a proper...
I'll be back with more shade details on the new Steven Klein/NARS collaboration when it comes out in a week or so - it's very, very covetable. Though I seem to be a sucker for things featuring the work of great fashion photographers - must be something to do with my...
Apologies in advance for my "before and after" photos (below): I didn't ever think I'd be zooming in so close, so I have millions of bits all over my face! Just to clarify, the black bits aren't flakes of this mascara, they are - shamefully - tiny flecks of mascara...
Rather an exaggerated title, because my skin isn't exactly "dried out", but it is definitely more dry than it was a year ago. Pregnancy seemed to completely throw it off balance and it hasn't yet returned to its "combination" default setting. So, though I have been...
I was sat testing out about ten thousand different shades from Clarins' new Joli Rouge lipstick collection (as you do) and it struck me how absolutely face-changing certain lip colours can be. A tone only needs to be slightly "off" for your skin to suddenly look...
I thought that I'd give one of the Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2015 makeup looks a whirl. On the D&G website, this particular look is described as being (to paraphrase) "naturally warm and sensual", with "golden hues" and "soft pinks". It sounds more like a summer...
Charlotte Tilbury's Norman Parkinson collection has been out for a while, now, but the launch coincided with the arrival of Baby AMR and so I couldn't really make as much song and a dance about it as I would have liked. My top makeup picks from the collection would be...
Good God, I don't half lose my thread a lot in this new video! Sorry! I had filmed a whole makeup tutorial beforehand but my camera card was corrupt and none of it came out - by the time I filmed this one, I was completely brain-fried and couldn't remember what I had...
I found a set of photographs taken a week or so before I went to have Baby AMR - the above is completely unretouched (not that I ever retouch, but just to be clear!) and I haven't added any filters or even messed about with exposure or contrast. To be fair, the light...
*I'm so sorry: this post was supposed to go out weeks ago but I made an error with my scheduling. You may well have already seen the video, in which case I send my apologies, but if you haven't then hurrah for you! My five favourite nude lipsticks of the moment....
If you use your Chanel Les Beiges powders on a near-daily basis (I do) then you will most likely want to snap up one of the new, limited edition Marinière versions. They give the same perfected glow as the standard Les Beiges powders but with a bit of extra - very...
Bronzer with a "rugged" outer shell? I can get on board with that. Because I do tend to throw my handbag about with gay abandon half the time, accidentally swinging it into brick walls and standing on it and squashing it into impossible spaces in the overhead locker...
