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…
Clarins – The Signature Facial @ House of Fraser
There are aspects of blogging I really love and being invited to try a Clarins Signature Facial is absolutely one of them. My very first facial was a Clarins one but that was a very, very long time ago, so I jumped at the chance to experience it again. I was delighted to meet Emma…
I heart Pixi Beauty

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,…

Beauty Review – Pestle & Mortar Pure Hyaluronic Serum

My five skincare rules
So I’ve been thinking about skincare recently and thinking about the basic skincare rules that I always follow. I’m not going to talk to you about the best moisturiser, if you should retinol or Q-10 or the best chemical peel. We’re all different with different kinds of skin and you know best what works for…
Product Review – Benefit Puff Off
Let’s face it, you either love Benefit or hate them and I have to say I’m coming down on the side of love. At the launch of Benefit’s Roller Lash Mascara about six months ago I was also given some of the new Puff Off eye gel. As you would expect this aims to reduce…
