You've got to love my new Canon 650D. It takes no prisoners when it comes to detail - I zoomed in on the photograph above and it literally took my on a journey down one of my open pores. Scary stuff! But quite useful when looking at how makeup products perform; you...
The Beyond Perfecting Foundation and Concealer from Clinique has seen some love here on the blog before, but it's never had its own standalone review. So here we are - if you, like me, were disappointed with the new Superbalanced Silk Makeup (full review here) then...
I'll start with a spoiler: I did not get on with this foundation stick. I wanted to - I read every rave review under the sun and the Hourglass Vanish Seamless Foundation Stick sounded like just the face base I needed. "Flawless" coverage, a texture that "melted into...
I'm back with another Beauty Reviews video after a little bit of a gap. I really enjoy making these - capturing my reaction to new products when I use them for the first time, watching on the little camera screen as the makeup works its magic (or not!) on my face....
Another week another set of beauty reviews. The Chanel Foundation was reviewed in slightly more depth yesterday, which leave the Amazing Cosmetics concealer and the Miss Manga mascara from L'Oreal. Amazing Cosmetics is a brave old name, isn't it? A bit like This...
The second instalment of my "beauty reviews" - I do hope that this will become a regular feature. It's useful, I think, to see products being applied - obviously you can't feel the texture yourself, but you get a good idea of how a foundation blends, or how pigmented...
I've been rather tardy in getting around to reviewing this foundation from Giorgio Armani. In fact, it has probably been reviewed to death all over the internet by now and you're sick of hearing about it - if that's the case then I do apologise. I'm late to the party,...
Maybelline's Instant Anti-Age 'The Eraser' foundation launches at FeelUnique.com tomorrow and a sample of it landed on my desk this morning for me to try. (It didn't literally land on my desk, because that would be plain weird. How would the post-lady (Dawn!) be able...
I've been back on the foundation testing train (first scheduled stop, Dior's new Forever Perfect Mousse, toot-toot!) but before I hit you with a slew of in-depth reviews, let's talk about the chunky brush I've been applying my bases with for the past few months....
There has been a huge kerfuffle around the UK launch of Glossier, the beauty brand from brilliant website Into The Gloss. Created by the Into The Gloss beauty editors and very much developed by listening to comments and feedback from their readers, Glossier is a...
Imagine how fast my heart was beating when I received this press pack from Chanel - I honestly thought that I had been sent a special travel diary, complete with cute little double-c sticky page markers and lovely postcard inserts. After my eye-rolling over The...
Sometimes, I just love the perfected look of a full coverage base; the velvety finish that's so glamorous and Old Hollywood, the way that my dark underye circles are obliterated and the redness around my nose totally erased. Mostly I tend to go for very sheer, "real...
