Tweet Remember when Barry M brought out the crackle nail polish and everyone went nuts? Geez, even Mr C amazed! I got bored of crackles pretty quickly then there was magnetic polish – once again a really really clever concept but one I have yet to master! Korean brands have been making crackle and magnetic polishes for a while now with lots of shades to choose from. I picked 3 shades from the range and the magnet. Here are the {Read More}
Tweet I have a massive spot spot for make up range, Heavy Rotation – now made by Isehan, the range is quite bold as far as Japanese make up ranges go – lots of black smoky eyeliners and nude lips! They released 4 new cream blushers and 4 lipglosses – I got 2 of each to try: The whole range is very pink based! I got:
Tweet Dear Readers… This week I am moving house! To say it has been a stressful time is an understatement – work (real day job!) has been busy, I have been very tired, I’ve had 8 weeks to plan a wedding, and we only confirmed our new pad TWO days before we had to leave our current place! However, it wasn’t our fault, with a lot of let downs and screw ups, all I can say is that me and {Read More}
Tweet My skin over the last few months has been a little bit crazy; it’s been very very sensitive and very very dry. I have been getting less spots randomly appearing but those little red flare ups are appearing all over the place! Eek! When it comes to finding something for dry and sensitive skin, I am not usually swayed by brands when they drop in that their products are ok for sensitive skin. I will know very quickly if {Read More}
Tweet I am a bit of an eye drop addict! As crazy as that sounds, there are some interesting eye drops out there mainly from Asia which are supposed to refresh and moisturise the eyes. Japanese eyes drops tend to err of the minty refreshing side - this is a real shock to the system if you’ve never used it before! It’s ok for some days but it’s not so great if you just want some eye drops to quickly hydrate {Read More}
Tweet KATE (a Kanebo brand) is one of the old schooler’s of Japanese drugstore cosmetics. I used to place the brand head to head with Lavshuca and there was a phase when both of the brands would release killer ranges every season but Lavshuca has been majorly disappointing of late, as has KATE. Nevertheless I picked up 3 products from their newest Spring 2012 releases. I got their dual ended eyeliner pencil which has a black liquid liner on one {Read More}
Tweet I’ve been dying to try something from the JASON naturals range for a while. You may have heard of them; they have a huge range of skincare and haircare products in lots of different ‘flavours’ and the entire range is based on natural goodness: The J?SÖN® brand is devoted to using only ingredients from the rich source of goodness that is earth’s garden and its natural resources. There are no artificial colours or animal by-products, the packaging is bio-degradable {Read More}
Tweet Mr C tried out a rather funky looking haircare range for me from Schwarzkopf called [3D] Mension (geddit?) many months ago. I don’t know about the man in your life, but Mr C is not particularly disciplined about the products he uses although he does get a bit excited when I give him something new to try. He tried the Activating Shampoo, Mattifying Cream and Activating Serum Shots: Mr C isn’t actually bald, he has quite a lot {Read More}
