    Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Hair Mist Review

    This isn’t really a review of Chanel Hair Mist because there isn’t actually an awful lot to ponder besides this; it’s beautiful, it’s Chanel and I love it. I was very kindly given the Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Hair Mist on my birthday and since then there’s barely been a day when I haven’t spritzed it into my hair. My first thought when I unwrapped this was ‘Oooooh how lovely!’ swiftly followed by ‘ …but what’s the difference between hair mist and standard perfume? Yes you can spray perfume in your hair (does everyone do that? I always have) but perfume can be extremely drying on the hair strands, which is…

    Charlotte Tilbury Wonder Glow Review

    From watching Charlotte Tilbury YouTube videos and reading interviews, she just seems like such a warm, genuine woman that I almost feel like buying her products is simply the right thing to do! I would love to try every single one of CT’s products but for now I’m sticking with one- Wonder Glow Instant Soft-Focus Beauty Flash.  This is a real magpie product- it’s shiny, quite new and is packed full of shimmery goodness so it’s only natural that people (me) would be drawn to it. Looks aside, this stuff is called Wonder Glow, which just instantly gave me images of walking casually down the street with a perfectly luminous,…

    The Blanket Wrap Cardigan

    I bought this Blanket Wrap from New Look last week and I’ve pretty much been living in it ever since. A little blanket with arm holes and pockets – it’s like the fashionable version of the snuggie. It goes with me to the shop, hangs out with me while I’m working and snuggles up with me on the couch. This particular one is 100% acrylic (no cashmere here) but it’s soft, warm and cosy. I chose this one because black and grey are pretty much my staple colours and I wasn’t keen on a really busy pattern, though apparently I do look a bit like Clint Eastwood in The Good, The…

    Billion Dollar Brows Hint of Tint – A Brow’s Best Friend?

    If you follow me on Twitter you may have noticed my constant tweets declaring my love for Billion Dollar Brows Hint of Tint. I’ve tweeted and Instagrammed about this stuff to the point that I now feel like some kind of voluntary eyebrow ambassador for Hint of Tint. I’m not though. Not officially anyway. Hint of Tint may not be a particularly new concept – a tinted eyebrow mascara so to speak, but it seems that Billion Dollar Brows have the formula, packaging, colour and brush completely spot on, which is a rare feat when it comes to virtually any product out there. I actually won my dinky little tube…

    Rodial BB Venom Skin Tint Review

    That awkward moment when you find something expensive that you would definitely repurchase? Yeah that happened. I went to the Space NK Beauty Anthology shopping event on Wednesday evening and spent a bit of time with a particularly lovely Rodial rep who introduced me to some fabulous bits and pieces including this – the Rodial BB Venom Skin Tint. Touted as a flawless complexion beauty balm with active peptides, and packaged in a slightly sinister looking black tube, the skin tint is just like any other BB cream at first glance, but look a little closer and you’ll see it’s got a playful little twist. The ingredient that makes it…
