It’s been a while since I mentioned skincare, I think – which is mainly because I have a rather settled routine at the moment, which I’m a bit loathe to change before the weather does! And the title’s a misnomer too, as I actually have two skin care routines, one am and one pm! So here’s my evening routine first: ( (L-R) Alpha H Absolute […]
Some people might know that I’m more of a bath person than a shower person, so this is a hodge-podge of bath/hair and shower products, but this is everything I have in current rotation – and more! From left to right: Aromatherapy Associates Deep Relax bath/shower oil (just visible) – I adore this stuff, and have been through several bottles of it. I will never […]
Psst! I forgot to mention in this post that if you follow @welbeckclinic on Twitter, they’ll give away the full package of Zoom2! Whitening (exactly as I had) once they reach the magic figure of 150 followers! So, if you fancy whiter teeth, and my description hasn’t scared you off totally, go follow @welbeckclinic now! It could, as they say, be you … This post originated […]
So, the amazing people at the Welbeck Clinic have finished whitening my teeth, and I can’t wait to show you the results. Before: After: I couldn’t really be happier, I went a whopping six shades whiter! (Important note: no photos in this post have had the colours adjusted in any way, the only changes I’ve made to the originals has been to crop them) the […]
At the moment, I’m on a bit of a cleansing kick, and when the opportunity came up to try this one out, I leapt at it, as it sounded intriguing. It promises an “innovative formula” which contains oxygen molecules to stop your skin being lackluster and promises a more youthful and “refreshed” look. In use, this light, apricot coloured gel transforms into a mousse, […]
(l-r: Rose, Rhubarb, 101, Dark Honey, Apples) I popped along to Boots on Oxford Street last week, and noticed they now have Lanolips in store. They’ve been available on Boots.com for a couple of months now, but it’s good to see them in-store finally. Even better, they’re currently on 3-4-2, so it was an ideal chance for me to pick up a couple or three […]
I could give a stuff about Katy Perry, and the associated crackle polish from her recent collection for OPI, to be honest, but even so I can’t deny this deep fuschia-purple shade that’s just packed with glass flecks is almost too gorgeous for words: I’m about to get MrLippie to paint my toes with this too… Don’t tell him! Perfect happy-making shade for a wet […]
I saw this just after Christmas in some promo pics, and I have to admit, I fell in love a little bit. Chantecaille has always been a brand I’ve admired, but have never really seen what all the fuss is about previously, but this palette might just be the one to change my mind. It’s beautiful. A shimmering sand shade, a glimmering brown, a multi-tonal […]
Before I discovered Browhaus, I used to alternate between going to Blink at Selfridges and Malika in Westfield to get my eyebrows done. Both are marvellous, and I never had a bad eyebrow shape from either of them, pop along if you get the chance, you won’t be disappointed. However, just because I’ve sold my eyebrows to Ellie at Browhaus, doesn’t mean I’m planning on […]
As beauty bloggers go, I’m a bit of a scruff. Okay, a lot of a scruff. Oh, and I’m a bit lazy too. If there’s a choice between an extra ten minutes in bed, and giving myself a blow-dry in the morning, I’ll take the ten minutes in bed, and go to work with wet hair. Yes, I have no shame. But I will always […]
One of the things I really really like about Guerlain is that they bridge an amazing history with really forward-thinking packaging and amazing textures. It’s a great contrast to think that they’ve been making perfume since the 1870’s and yet, the packaging of their Rouge G’s has more than a little hint of the space age about it, I’ll say one thing for them, they’re […]
