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

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
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: 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
Reviewing my USA beauty buys: pharmacy buys
When I was in the USA I did some (we all know that’s an understatement…) beauty shopping (you can read about that here!), and as part of that I found myself at CVS pharmacy. Here’s what I bought at the pharmacy, and what I think of each product… Continue reading
My latest travel skin care favourites & routine
You guys, I think I’ve cracked it: my ideal (for me) skin care routine while traveling! I’ve been regularly travelling internationally for years now, and every time I fly I find my skin gets irritated and breaks out. But during my recent USA holiday I found a routine that seemed to keep everything in check… Continue reading
Get Ready to GLOW with Caroline Hirons and Amanda Bell at Pixi on 11 June 2015
As an avid reader of Caroline Hirons’ blog I’d heard lots about the Pixi Glow Tonic, and as someone with acneic skin I was pretty keen to try this toner with 5% glycolic acid, aloe vera and ginseng. So when she blogged that she would be at Pixi’s Get Ready to GLOW event, I decided to pop by … Continue reading
Reviewing my French beauty buys: Caudalíe Purifying Mask
OK, so, I have a bit of a confession to make: as much as I love skin care and beauty, face masks have never really been ‘my thing’. I’ve tried a few that I really like, but I never used them often – just here & there when I had a particular skin concern to … Continue reading
