Review – Clarins Wonder Perfect Mascara

I love mascara.  Specifically, I love Lancome Hypnose, and Lancome Hypnose Drama (though the brush on that one drives me a bit bonkers, if I’m being really honest), I’ve tried other mascaras, but for me, nothing really comes close. Clarins recently ran a giveaway on their Facebook page, and I was lucky enough to win a sample sized tube, and, I have to say, it’s […]

Makeover: Anna

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 – […]

Face of the Week

Here’s the products I’ve been wearing this week, it’s very plain and simple, but quick, and pretty. Organic Surge Blissful Daily Moisturiser (which I’m trialling for a […]

Eye of the Day – Updated!

So, I decided that yesterday’s picture of my eyemakeup wasn’t the clearest, so I’ve redone it: And here it is with the Urban Decay eyeliner in Ecstasy more clearly visible: A cheery look for a Friday me thinks. Products used: MAC Paint – Untitled (as base) MAC Dovefeather in the inner corner by Terry Black Grape in the outer corner Urban Decay liquid liner in […]

Review – Eyeshadow Primers

Today, I’ve decided to to a side-by-side product test. Two of my all time favourite products are MAC Paint (which I use as an eyeshadow primer, as well as a colour) and Urban Decay Eyeshadow primer. Up until now, I’d be hard pressed to say which was better, so I’m trying them both out at the same time, with an eyeshadow that I already now […]

Product Review – Lancome Hypnose Drama

I am a massive fan of Hypnose, I’ve used it constantly for years. Well, I say constantly, I’ve had occasional flirtations with Max Factor, and Benefit Bad Gal once in a while, but I always come back to Hypnose.
