Tweet I am not a big buyer of Solo or Single Eyeshadows, because I dislike the fuss of having to find all the colours you want, opening lots of different separate compacts…I like one palette with all the colours I could possibly need. However – it was a long day – we were on a trip and because of a motorway accident, a 3 hour trip took 7, so I ended up taking advantage of technology and purchasing two {Read More}
Tweet I have recently been doing a foundation audit and the amount of bases I have is RIDICULOUS. But I can’t help it…whilst I definitely have some loves (and they are nearly always the pricey ones) I don’t have one Holy Grail foundation that I prize over others because my skin changes, the season changes, my needs change. On this basis, I think it’s totally fair that these three Estee Lauder foundations have entered my life: Estee Lauder foundations are {Read More}
Tweet Skincare is a difficult thing to review – everyone has different skin concerns and it’s hard to recommend a product sometimes because it just depends on how your skin is at this moment it time… With that in mind I find it hard to recommend skincare products unless I think it’s given me visible results. It’s been a while since that has happened, and as you can imagine, I do get to test a lot of products out. Then {Read More}
Tweet When it comes to feeling like you’ve had a luxurious make up treat, there’s nothing quite like a bit of Chanel to perk up the day. When I saw their newest powder, Les Beiges, fronted by Gisele, I squealed a bit because I love base products and the new nifty compact is oh so chic. I also took this opportunity to try their new Perfection Lumiere Long Wear Flawless Make Up Foundation. Perfection Lumiere Long Wear Flawless Fluid Sunscreen {Read More}
Tweet I really can’t resist a nice lipstick…maybe it’s because if you find a great one, it’s an instant perker-uper, maybe that’s why I can always be tempted by a new colour or formula. When it comes to Asian brands, the general consensus is that they are glossy, sheer and with sometimes creamy. Even when a lipstick has a word in it’s title like ‘deep’ implying rich colour, the lipstick may still be very much a sheer! These {Read More}
Tweet You guys know that I am obsessed with pencil eyeliner, right? I recently discovered theTaiwan produced brand ‘Solone’ known for their best selling long lasting eyeliners – full review here. I liked the eyeliner enough to purchase more colours… So here are just some swatched and quick thoughts…
Tweet My memory of the Hard Candy brand is the multitude of nail polish colours they stocked a Boots which came with a free plastic ring. Even back then they cost nearly £10 each, and I remember talking to school friends and confirming who had a rich dad..’But she’s got 4 of those Hard Candy rings!’. Hard Candy is no more in the UK but it lives on in the US! When I saw this Megawatt Smile Lipstick being recommended {Read More}
Tweet There are two things that I constantly lose; lip balms and tweezers. This year alone I have misplaced three pairs…I think they are hiding somewhere along with some odd socks, conspiring against me. But I digress… A girl can never have enough pairs of good tweezers. As someone who not so long ago picked up some 99p ones from Home Bargains, I can confirm that cheap tweezers that are hard to hold, or don’t quite meet in the middle {Read More}
