Arriving in London with a makeup bag that had apparently been packed by a drunk baboon forced me to be a bit creative with my products. I honestly have no idea how I ended up with four bronzers and two foundations but absolutely no brow stuff, no lipstick and only one...
I was slightly nervous about the fact that the epic Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear foundation had been reformulated. And I say epic with not even a hint of irony because it was just that: very few high coverage, ultra longwear foundations came close to it in terms of...
I've made some little tweaks to my makeup routine and committed them to video: one of the changes involves my eyebrows, and you might already know about that one, but the other four are relatively new and snazzy. I know that the suspense will be killing you, so let's...
First post of 2023 and it's straight in with my current makeup routine and some incredible new makeup discoveries. I don't use the word incredible lightly, either: some of these products have completely changed my makeup routine and had my husband asking questions...
At the very real risk of boring myself to death with the same makeup look over and over again I thought I had better jiggle things up a bit. There's nothing wrong with "sticking to what suits you" when it comes to putting your maquillage on but sometimes there's a...
It's "neutrals with a hint of pink time"! Yes, that's right: whilst the whole world of social media experiments with the mandatory seasonal shades of russet and bronze, I'm still stuck in bronzer mode with a little bit of pretty pink to eradicate signs of tiredness...
Here's my current makeup routine, including a rediscovered foundation that's perfect for the summer months (ultra-glowy but lightweight and non-greasy) and what is possibly my all-time favourite mascara. I'm going to break it down into steps for you, but please do...
I think that this may be my most pared-back What's In My Makeup Bag video ever: really just the very bare minimum, with the few products I did use tested to the absolute nth degree. I filmed it quite a few weeks ago now and I still hadn't really unpacked (catch up on...
You might well point out that I'm a bit late to the party with this particular seasonal makeup update, but apparently we're in for a little heatwave next week, here in the UK. So there. I refuse to let go of summer! At any rate, why be so rigid about the seasons? I...
I've just been scrolling back through all of my previous What's In My Makeup Bag posts and I stumbled across this particular beauty: the Summer 2018 edition. If you don't want to click through and read it then here's the gist of the matter, in image form: Isn't it...
It's Best Budget Beauty time again and who better to join me in my bargain-hunting exploits than the self-confessed dupe-obsessive Nadine Baggott? Nadine has decades of experience as a beauty editor and presenter and spends an unholy amount of time chasing down...
Stand down, Outraged of Welwyn Garden City, I said How To Do A Glow Job not blow job! To be honest, I'm almost forty and still couldn't tell you how to do the latter that well, so the chances of me writing a post about it (or - urgh - making a video) are slim. Hohoho....
