… what I really, really want: A can of this: Just one can. That’s all I want. But can I find it anywhere? NO. Stupid London shops. Sorry about the earworm, it’s bugging me now too.
Or … “Tell ’em about the hunny, mummy …” No, I haven’t (yet) lost my marbles, but there are two products to review this week, and the above quote will make sense when I get to the second one. I hope! The Background: The company says: “Dr Organic utilise only the finest natural and organic raw materials wherever possible. Sourced from around the world, […]
Mainly thanks to the gorgeous Lipstick Rules I bought NARS Pop Life Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Liberty yesterday, and while I was there I very graciously allowed the Sales Assistant to convince me to hand over some hard earned cash for the Skorpios Soft Touch Shadow Pencil too … just kidding, the sales assistant was adorable, and very sweetly left me to my own […]

Another Sunday, another makeover … please meet Anna: Anna came to me a couple of weeks ago, wanting to look more polished, and also to see how to create a smokey eye that would suit her beautiful grey-green eyes. We decided on a neutral brown palette from Pixi to create the look around – I can’t read the name on the packaging anymore, sorry – […]
Even though I use cleansing oils to remove my makeup, it seems I’m still collecting eyemakeup removers at a rate of knots for some reason! This isn’t entirely a bad thing, as I do love me my full on lashes and liner, even with a “natural” look, and sometimes, you just want those bad-boys OFF! If you’ve ever read my Products I Simply Can’t Live […]

Whenever I’m offered a makeover in a department store, I try and take the salespeople up on it, unless the salesperson falls into one of these two categories: a) is wearing black lipliner or b) works for Benefit. Sorry Benefit ladies, you’re all no doubt wonderful people, but I tend to come away looking like I’ve let a toddler loose on my mush face with […]
I’m reviewing several products this week, a handwash, a shower gel, and a shampoo. The background: Tisserand has been making SLS-, paraben-, synthetic perfume-, animal product- and mineral oil-free products since 1985, Robert Tisserand has been practising as an aromatherapist since the late 1960’s and is still involved with the company helping them to put together formulations for their products. Currently they have a range […]
Sorry about the extreme close up nature of these pics, I’m in the middle of a major hair crisis! A really major hair crisis … But this is how my Maybelline/Bobbi Brown makeup looks when it’s put together. I’ve been trialling Lancome Teint Idole, and Clarins Wonder Perfect mascara in this pic too, so expect a post on those later on in the week … […]
There won’t be too many Nail of the Day posts around here for a couple of reasons, the main one being that I’m lousy at applying it, and the other one is that I have truly dreadful nails that don’t grow, and when they do, the second I start to think they’re looking reasonable they start to split, peel, flake and then snap. It’s very […]
