Blimey, I desperately needed a break from talking about Christmas and Christmassy things! Can someone please remind me, next year, to keep my Gift Guides neatly contained within a single week - perhaps the last week of November? - and not a single utterance of the...
Oh, this little mask is all kinds of wonderful. I haven't been getting much sleep recently (have I mentioned that? Oh, at least fifteen thousand times. Sorry) and my skin has been a bit dry and crappy and - I don't know - kind of baggy feeling. As though there's no...
A few weeks ago I embarked on a bit of a mission: to improve the quality of my sleep. It would be completely unrealistic to expect to be able to get more sleep, because I have a new baby and am juggling work, family and a dog who likes to get up to do a wee in the...
I look forward to any new launch from Dr Marko Lens' brand Zelens, but when it's two very potent and impressive serums, I really sit up and take notice. Dr Marko is a world-leading authority on skin cancer and regularly contributes to some of the most cutting-edge...
This video was originally entitled "Pregnancy Skincare Habits I'm Keeping!" but it was all a bit sensational and you know how I like to stay low-key... So we're onto Pregnancy Beauty Tips for Glowing Skin, which is very accurate because my skin has been glowing like a...

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...
This came around quickly, didn't it? I'm still recovering from cooking the Christmas dinner! January Beauty Favourites; we have some hair stuff, some nice morsels of makeup and the results of my sponsored Olay skincare trial*. I also have another giveaway for you (UK...
There have been loads of questions recently about serums; people wanting to know what they are, what to do with them and - this seems to be the most frequently asked question - whether they are worth the money. Are they just another marketing ploy to get us to add a...
Summer is here and - if you're anything like me - you're frantically hunting for your foot file and your gradual tanner to get your legs and feet into some kind of presentable condition. There's a post coming up with some of my most-used foot products, but what about...
