Beauty Pie is a brand that’s been on my radar for a while, but a combination of “I don’t need anything new right now”, “I’d rather buy something exciting while travelling”, and “can I be arsed to bother with a monthly fee?” meant I put it off for well over a year before finally taking … Continue reading
The Japanese beauty industry is well known for it’s innovation, with many products landing on ‘cult beauty buy’ lists around the world, and a selection of these become available at a premium online here in the west.

[Comfort Zone] is a brand I’ve heard of, but always in a spa capacity so I hadn’t gone out of my way to try any of their products. But, by chance, I had the luck of being offered a sample Day & Night kit to review and now I’m keen to try other products in … Continue reading
Considering how many of my beauty posts reference La Roche-Posay’s Serozinc, I’m surprised I hadn’t put fingers to keyboard to write out a review just for it! So now that I’ve replaced this original can several times, it’s time to dedicate a post to the beauty that is Serozinc. Continue reading
This is a blog post I’ve been meaning to write for a while. Well over a year, in fact, but one excuse lead to another and I never got around to it. But a couple of weeks ago a colleague approached me for some advice about managing acneic skin. They asked if I could email it over … Continue reading
