I'm clearing out my beauty room before house renovations begin (don't even ask why I'm going ahead with building work when I'm having a baby in four-months-and-one-week's time!) and I keep discovering very interesting little boxes filled with skincare for various...
Smashbox's Photo Finish Blemish Control Primer has been very swiftly promoted to my "hall of fame" level - or "holy grail" status, as I think the proper term might be these days. It's outstanding, this primer, in that it addresses a concern that deeply affects...
Sorry, I was late with the video and I'm even later with this post! It's quite a mish-mash, this favourites video; jewellery, sunscreens, a pair of ballet pumps... You can read more about the wonderful lightweight sunscreens in last week's post here and I'll be doing...
Pottering around in the City Pharma pharmacy in Paris last week really got me excited about skincare again. I'd been having a little lull, if truth be known. Partly because I'd been using up my Olay Renegerist Luminous and so wasn't trying anything new (good sign,...
Ah, here we are again. Monthly favourites. Apologies in advance; I have been on a bit of a beauty "hiatus" this month, partly because I spent the first two weeks of it watching The Good Wife and partly because I still haven't properly sorted out my beauty room. I...
I've finally managed to get around to filming my Preparing for a Beauty Shoot video and I have a feeling that, in a small way, it may be something of an anticlimax. Because I don't have some kind of crazy twenty-five-step facial routine that I do before a modelling...
OK, so they might not be right at the lowest end of budget budget beauty finds, but all of the products in this video are extremely fairly priced. And good. I use the Weleda Calendula Bath quite frequently, now - it's not the most attractive product when it squits its...
Here's a list of my absolute all-time favourite beauty products. If I had to fit everything into a very small suitcase and go and live on a desert island, then this is what I'd take. This list is subject to change, but it has been exactly the same for over a year so...
My apologies to those of you who were looking for the wrong serum after my milk and spots post yesterday; it's actually called the La Roche-Posay Biomedic Pigment Control serum. You can find it at Escentual and at Boots.com, so pretty easy to get hold of, and I have...
Look, I just want to put this out there. There's no risk-free way, at present, of me proving or disproving this little theory I've come up with, but I have convinced myself that it's true and so I want to share. This isn't intended to be a scaremongering session by...
I've done a little run-down of the top five skincare ranges of 2012. Now I'm talking about entire ranges here, not about individual products. If I did a top five products then the list might look a little different - this is a video about complete (or almost complete)...
There's not a Sunday Tittle Tattle every week, but there must have been a fair few this year. I think that it's definitely here to stay! It's quite useful for me to be able to relay little chunks of info and ponderings that I wouldn't otherwise find space to include -...
