My Current Favourite Moisturisers

My Current Favourite Moisturisers

This post could also have been called My Most-Used Autumn Moisturisers but I dicked around with the title for so long that my hair grew and the leaves began to fall and so I settled on the original title. Does what it says on the tin. My Current Favourite...

The Best Skin-Resurfacing Face Masks

The Best Skin-Resurfacing Face Masks

Sometimes I crave a bit of nitty gritty when it comes to skincare; I appreciate the "kid gloves" approach (which is my own, 90% of the time) but when it comes to my pre-period week or I've been burning the candle at both ends or troughing through vast amounts of...

Facial In A Field

Facial In A Field

I had a facial in the middle of a field and I have to say, without any exaggeration or unnecessary embellishment, that it was one of the best facials I have ever had in my life. Perhaps it was partly due to the fact that I was at a festival with my kids (we'll come...

The Fresh Summer Sunscreen That Feels Barely There

The Fresh Summer Sunscreen That Feels Barely There

I'm supposed to be concentrating on getting my app launched (The Night Feed, it's almost finished!) but I couldn't let a quick review of this new SPF from Elizabeth Arden slip through the net. Because Great 8 Eight Hour Daily Defense Moisturiser SPF35 is absurdly...

Japanfusion: A Truly Supreme Cream

I've just risked life and limb careering up the stairs to get this review out to you; such is my dedication to the beauty cause that as soon as I saw the Japanfusion Supreme Cream back in stock, I dropped my knitting (aka browsing the Rightmove app) and scurried to my...

4 Great Moisturisers for Very Dry Skin

4 Great Moisturisers for Very Dry Skin

Four great moisturisers for very dry skin. Skin that feels tight and uncomfortable and generally as though nothing will ever break through its tough, arid surface ever again. Skin like cardboard. Skin like leather. The first two suggestions are very affordable, the...

Murad Youth Renewal: The Fast-Acting Retinol | AD

Murad Youth Renewal: The Fast-Acting Retinol | AD

You may have realised by now that I'm a total retinol convert; it's an ingredient that seems to absolutely live up to the hype, with the sort of results even the most hardened skincare sceptics would find it difficult to argue with. Since the very start of my...
