Tweet There are some scents which we most of us associate with old ladies; lavender, musk, Elnet, mothballs, Savlon…. I must admit when I saw this very pretty soap by Roger & Gallet I thought it looked nice but a grannyish. But hey, vintage look is in – I am all for the boudoir, floral, pastel look! They say: With their springtime, romantic and crushing perfumes, the Roger & Gallet floral soaps are the echo of a marvelous garden filled {Read More}
Tweet To be completely honest, when I hear the world Enzyme in a product I get worried and my face itches in anticipation. Why? Because my skin is sensitive darling, it has feelings. I learnt the hard way, recently, that using anything too fancy makes my skin go a little nuts. It doesn’t matter if it cost a fortune – if my skin hates it, it punishes me for weeks and weeks. So as much as I like Elemis I {Read More}
Tweet I was sent a number of hair brushes from Goody to try months ago and they were all good quality brushes but two deserve a special mention. One is now the only hairbrush that I use every day, and I nearly cried when I thought I left it on the tram. The brush of my affection is the Goody Ouchless Smooth Brush! This is the Handbag size (I don’t have the full size) and it lives permanently in my {Read More}
Tweet I was actually being nosy when I found out about Chi Keratin mist as I heard Arlene talking about it – something about the name Chi appealed to me. Chi is energy. Chi, if harnessed correctly makes you into a kung fu master. Or something like that. Anyway on to the hair product. I don’t use leave in treatments that often because I find them heavy although judging by how dry my hair is these days, I certainly need {Read More}
Tweet Sometimes a brand just totally gets me excited and Melliesh was one of them! As soon as I spotted then I picked up the lip gloss, blushers and liner. The brand is by Yui Kanno (I think she is a Japanese model/actress) and the look seems to be the Gyaru look, in a soft, pretty form. Melliesh also makes lashes and eyelid tape. Anyway! My gorgeous glosses! I bought three for about £9 each (the exchange rate is SO {Read More}
Tweet I don’t watch Strictly Come Dancing so wasn’t too excited when I saw the exclusive make up range at Boots – and then there was this gorgeous 12 colour nail collection (part of the gift 3 for 2 sets): This set costs £16 for 12 nail polishes – they are split between three categories, Salsa (the brights) Ball room (naturals) and Latin (dark shades). Whenever I see these TV/Celeb endorsed products I always wonder about the quality. I have {Read More}
Tweet Me and the 10 year old had a debate as I thought that these Mooks were pronounced Moo-uk and she said it’s MUCK. I suspect she may be right. That’s the last Happy Meal she gets from me. Mooks are a cross between a magazine and a book. They’re better made than books, are highly collectable and come with fabulous gifts! I don’t buy these very often but this year I ordered Jill Stuarts Mook and Mary Quant from {Read More}
Tweet Dollywink Nail Colors have been on my hit list for a while because they are just soooooo cute. There are 10 polish colours and 4 glitters in the range, 4.5ml in each bottle. The colour range is quite nice – they vary from pastel to brights to a few neutrals and I chose a wearable pink and lilac and the matte black just because I thought it would be interesting. None of the colours have glitter in them or {Read More}
