We've had a miniature heatwave here in the UK, which you'll know about if you live in the UK, obviously, but if you don't then perhaps won't. I mention this mini pre-summer (four days of uninterrupted sun in Somerset, temperatures reaching approximately twenty four...
I've already featured this cleanser (in my best of the beauty launches video) but Emma Hardie's new Moringa Light Cleansing Gel is so utterly glorious that it absolutely needs a post of its own. For posterity. And for the fact that I think I might like this cleanser...
This week I've been testing a selection of moisturisers from Estée Lauder in an attempt to find my perfect fit. In the interests of full transparency, I already had a firm favourite (keep on reading), but being the highly scientific person I am (I'm not) I put my...
Oh, hallelujah: I thought that the glorious Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm was on a limited run, once-it's-gone-it's-gone, but I've just seen that it's now a permanent addition to their Pro-Collagen line. (It took me four attempts to spell "hallelujah"...
Here's a visual delight for you; over 15 minutes of beauty confessional from Yours Truly. I talk about the Ten Year Challenge that took over Instagram and how I feel about my skin now that I'm 38, all via a chat about smoking and cosmetic surgery. So if you've ever...

Goodness me, this is a naughty one! I'm afraid those who are on the sensitive side should probably give this video with Nadine Baggott a miss - not only do we launch into an in-depth discussion about pubic hair preferences, Nadine introduces me to Scrotox. Not...
There's a new addition to L'Oreal's Pure Clay mask range and it couldn't have launched at a better time. The Pure Clay Soothing Mallow Mask has been formulated with more sensitive skin in mind which makes it perfect for winter-worn, partied-out skin that needs a bit...
I had forgotten how much I like this rich, instantly-soothing face cream from Chanel. It contains just ten ingredients (hence the Solution 10) and has been carefully and cleverly formulated so that it's suitable for even the most sensitive skin. No fragrance (a rarity...
As I scrape the very last remnants of cream from the bottom of the glass jar, I find myself missing Herbivore's Pink Cloud Rosewater Moisture Cream before it has even reached the recycling box. Unusual for me, because quite a lot of the time I'm in a rush to try the...
A new video for you here, but as it's proved to be such a popular one already I'll give you a bit of an extended blurb. The Five Beauty Products that Changed My Skin has a slightly confusing title, I suppose, because it's more about the five "types" of product that...
