Recently while on my hunt for perfect skin I came across a skincare brand that I wasn’t totally familiar with – sk:n. Luckily I had the chance to get chatting with the team, and the opportunity to trial a significant portion of the range. sk:n was introduced to me as a skin clinic offering ‘more … Continue reading

Get the look: 3 London Fashion Week Hairstyles for curly / wavy hair
London Fashion Week was a while ago now, but it’s that time of the season where I’m starting to think about all the upcoming holiday parties – and more specifically, how I’ll dress at these parties. (Confession: I recently impulse bought a sparkly bag and skirt because I’m sure there will be an event to … Continue reading
Introducing: Kiehl’s x Tinie Tempah for MTV Staying Alive Foundation
If you follow me over on Instagram you’ll know I posted a picture about this on Friday, but I was so excited about the charity cause I wanted to write a post about it, too! Last Friday I received this special face cream and message from Kiehl’s, which celebrates the Kiehl’s and MTV Staying Alive Foundation partnership for 2015.The … Continue reading
Get the look: everyday hairstyle for curly / wavy hair
I’m pretty lucky that my hair can go curly easily (though it’s naturally wavy with an uneven curl, so it does need a bit of help looking good!) and also looks great straight. (While I don’t own straighteners, I love when my stylist, Ryan, agrees to straighten it post-haircut because it just looks so different!) … Continue reading
Reviewing my USA beauty buys: Kiehl’s
It feels like forever ago that I picked these items up in the USA, but that’s my fault for sitting on this review for ages. Now that I’ve had plenty of time (that’s an understatement!) to form an opinion on these particular products, it’d be rude for me not to share with you… Continue reading
Review: Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm
This has been a staple in my skincare routine for a few months now, but for some reason I’ve only mentioned it once as a favourite for travel skincare – which makes no sense because I clearly love it! So, I’m righting that wrong and putting pen to paper (fingers to keys?) and writing (typing?) … Continue reading
Reviewing my USA beauty buys: Kate Somerville & Sunday Riley
With Sunday Riley and Kate Somerville this post is all about my luxury beauty buys from the USA. While both brands are available in the UK, they’re not the easiest to find in brick & mortar shops and the prices are eyewatering on this side of the Atlantic. (While they’re a bit more affordable at … Continue reading
Review: New Jane Iredale Smooth Affair for Oily Skin Facial Primer & Brightener
For months I’ve been using the Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Facial Primer & Brightener* underneath my foundation, and I’ve always been happy with it. However, I think it’s found a rival: the new Smooth Affair for Oily Skin Facial Primer & Brightener*. Continue reading
Review: Kiehl’s Daily Reviving Concentrate
It’s been a while since I was gifted the new Kiehl’s Daily Reviving Concentrate*, but after more than a month of using it near daily I thought it was about time I actually got around to writing about it. I mean, what on earth was I waiting for? I’d obviously already made up my mind … Continue reading
Review: Jane Iredale Longest Lash Mascara
For the second year running, Jane Iredale has won the Gold Award in the Make-up category of the FreeFrom Skincare Awards, this time for the Longest Last Mascara. (Last year they scooped the Gold Award for their Eye Pencil.) After winning the award, I was lucky enough to receive a sample to try out and review. Continue reading
