Products we love: My new favourite bronzer for fair skintonesNov 15I don’t have a Kiko store near me so it’s an absolute must to pop into their store when I’m in Italy and Spain and see one. I did a quick smash and grab visit to their Palma store a couple of months ago and picked up amongst other things the Kiko Rebel Romantic Perfecting bronzer […] Read More
Products we love: Le Volume de Chanel MascaraAug 15 I never would have tried this mascara if I hadn’t have been given it as a sample on the Chanel counter in Harrods. I’m a complete drug store mascara lover. I like to replace them every 4 or so weeks so it gets a bit spendy if you’re doing that on the Chanel counter. […] Read More
Products We Love: Kevyn Aucoin Celestial Powder Candlelight ReviewJul 15Contouring your face every day is a little bit like too much effort for me.

Products we love: The most magically flattering blush for anyone over 30Jun 15Ok so this product doesn’t look like much. A skincare-looking bottle with a pump that dispenses a dose of liquid blush in a nondescript peach shade. But don’t be fooled. Studio 10 Youth Lift Plumping Blush – Glow Plexion is MAGIC. I use the tiniest amount – maybe half a pump and pat it over the […] Read More
What’s in my Makeup Kit? – Primers I’m lovingApr 15I cannot help but be a sceptic when it comes to primers – they often make big claims which I don’t see when applied. Plus let’s be honest it’s a great way for makeup companies to sell an extra product to you. Saying that I do always ‘prime’ the skin so to speak before applying […] Read More
Travel: My 5 favourite makeup shops in NYCApr 15During a very cold and snowy week in March I went to spend a couple of days with my ex-pat English friend Laura (and meet her new husband) deliver a couple of kgs of Cadbury’s chocolate and splurge on a large amount of new makeup kit. I’m not sure I can call this post a […] Read More
Products we love: L’Oreal Infallible FoundationApr 15I bought this foundation on a whim on a rushed trip to Boots.

I love the […] Read More
Products we love: L’Oreal Paris La Palette Nude reviewMar 15Here’s my L’Oreal La Palette Nude review. There is no doubting that these cute little nude palettes by L’Oreal are very similar to the super famous NAKED palettes by Urban Decay but at less than half the price they are definitely more affordable! You can pick them up for £14.99 (each) at Boots.com. These palettes are brilliantly […] Read More
