You know, although I need a Beauty Box subscription like a hole in the head, I still get it anyway. I’ve tried others and found that Look Fantastic’s Beauty Box is generally my favourite. This isn’t an ad, I buy and pay for this myself. I have a rolling subscription for £15 per box plus…

My Fast Face – Express Make-up
We’ve all been there. You roll out of bed, rub the sleep from your eyes and climb into your smartest work leggings. With no meetings in your diary you might brush your teeth and/or hair but as far as personal grooming goes, that’s going to be it today…Until your manager/friend/parent etc calls and says the…
New Year, New Empties
Greetings all! It’s certainly been a while since I posted. I actually hummed and hah’d about whether I should let the blog go altogether but when push came to shove (or the email came in from WordPress about renewing my domain name) I couldn’t quite let it go. During lockdown I’ve been getting a bit…
Inika – The Next Big Makeup Brand

My Don’t Buy List
The Don’t Buy List OK first things first, this isn’t me holding a grudge against anyone. As a blogger and media professional I know I’m incredibly lucky to be sent a lot of free stuff. But just because it’s free, doesn’t make it good. Of course others will have used these products and loved them,…

My five best tried and tested lipbalms (with a bonus)
Have a Field Day with home fragrance candles
I’ve never blogged about interiors before but I do love them. I’m as much of a sucker for a good paint colour or stylish sofa as anyone else, but my real weakness is candles. I LOVE candles. Any trip to Ikea will see me come home with literally hundreds of the things. When I shop…
Kiss -Luscious Lashes and How to Love Them
I’m just back from a brilliant event by Kiss – the company that specialises in nails and lashes at Belfast’s Merchant Hotel. We were treated to nibbles, cocktails and the awesome Paddy McGurgan and his team from the Make-up Pro Store who spent their time fitting us with nails and lashes. I’m actually partial to…
