It wasn’t until I started to suffer with eczema badly that I considered natural products, whether it be for hygiene or for beauty. The idea of putting chemicals on my skin isn’t so appealing anymore and ever since that revelation of mine, I haven’t looked back. Here are three of my main ‘natural tricks’ I’ve...Read More
I’m a lover of makeup, but I’m not such a makeup guru that I’d be willing to pay over £20 on a new MAC lipstick on a weekly basis, or £80 on a foundation just because it’s ‘high-end’. £40 is the highest I’d go for my Clinique Foundation and anything higher I would kindly ask...Read More
My friend had her first baby six years ago and, as a way of saying thank you for a gift that I gave her, she handmade me a personalised Thank You card. I loved it. I still have it to this day and it means as much to me now as it did then. A...Read More
Dear Daughter, I was thinking about you today and what you might be like. See, you don’t even exist yet. For now you are but an idea – a beautiful idea that I will, god willing, one day have the chance to make a reality. I’ve written this in preparation of that moment and I did...Read More

Yet when I began to read...Read More

Trying them all out and having huge make-up faux pas until you find the right one, on the other hand, is not as fun. It can...Read More
Just when we thought we’d conquered contouring, along come new trends that dominate the beauty pages of every fashion bible on the shelf. It’s costly enough topping up our make-up bags with our everyday essentials, but when new looks arrive it can be hard to know whether we should invest our pennies in new products and...Read More
Some we commit without really knowing we’re doing it, and others we’re often blissfully unaware that it’s even on the naughty list, but beauty crimes come in all shapes and sizes and do us an injustice that only we ourselves can stop.
