Lush, as a store, is a feast for the senses. The colourful creations; the powerful scents; even the textures (I can't be the only one who enjoys a little dabble!). And their face masks, sitting in the crushed ice-filled sink, is such an inviting set-up. I want to try all of them! Having already ...
L’Occitane Divine Eyes Cream
Easy on the eyes I've previously posted about the wonderful (and aptly named) Divine cream; so I thought I would try out the L'Occitane Divine Eyes cream to go alongside it. This little eye cream from L'occitane's Divine range is as lovely to use as its big sister. Of course, with eye creams ...
L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Cream
L'Occitane Immortelle Divine Cream I thought I’d dedicate a little post to one of my skincare heroes, the L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Cream. L’Occitane is one of my favourite beauty brands. As well as conjuring up whimsical visions of Provence (which this girl is a total sucker for), they create ...
European Drugstore Haul | Catrice Cosmetics Review
Catrice Cosmetics Review What is it about makeup? I have plenty of it - I have no need of anymore - yet I can't resist picking up more things to try. Being in Munich, I've been able to check out some of those European drugstore brands that aren't available back home in the UK, one of them being ...
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer When it comes to concealers, I've been around the block, several times. And while many have been good, I am always on the lookout for something that bit better. Enter NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. This concealer hides a multitude of sins (and dark circles). Many ...
The Ultimate Red Lip
The Ultimate Red Lip Although Autumn is so much about rich berry and nude shades, a good red lip is always in season and I wanted to share my latest addition, a gift from Jamie. It is by Artdeco, a liquid lipstick in the shade 'Iconic Red'. It's as the name suggests - a classic red, one that ...
Four Products That Didn’t Live Up To The Hype
Disappointing products We've all been there, haven't we? Rave reviews all over the blogosphere and in our favourite magazines about the latest 'must-have' products, that are unlike anything we've tried before. We occasionally splurge on these, because they must be worth it, right? Well no, quite ...
Benefit Big Beautiful Eyes
Benefit Big Beautiful Eyes I bought myself the Benefit Big Beautiful Eyes palette after having my makeup done at the Benefit counter several months ago. I don't have a huge number of eyeshadows, but I'm beginning to get more into wearing them and I absolutely love this little kit. The colours ...
Dior Addict
Dior Duluxe Holiday palette: No longer available but similar here | Dior Rouge Lipstick Ever since my teenage years, I have always had a little bit of Dior in my makeup bag. It has been my favourite foundation since way back then and I have always been very loyal to the brand, admiring the ...
My little bag of tricks
My little bag of tricks... AKA my makeup bag! A sister of the blogger classic 'What's In My Bag?', I love seeing what others have in their makeup bags. It's a great way of gaining insight into new products we wouldn't have been familiar with, or were curious about. I'm no expert (take it from ...
L’Occitane Verbena
I am a long-time-lover of L’Occitane. And who wouldn’t be? When I think of L’Occitane (and when I smell their products!), I have whimsical visions of Provence; fields lined with glorious lavender, wicker baskets piled high with refreshing verbena and the wonderful scents filling the air. This, ...
L’Oreal Colour Trophy!
I was recently the lucky hair model for my hairdressers' entry into the L'Oreal Colour Trophy! The very talented Emma and Carrie reached the final of the competition in 2012, so we were very excited in creating this look, and so delighted with the results. I absolutely love the colour; rich, glossy ...
