There’s a lot of buzz around Real Techniques brushes isn’t there? I know a lot of well respected bloggers rave about them, so when I needed a blush brush I thought I’d give them a go. I should explain that prior to buying this brush I was actually using a Mac 187, which I think … Continue reading
I think it’s fair to say that I’m much more uncontrollable around skincare purchases than make up, but I was quite taken with this stuff and read oodles of reviews for weeks before I finally put in my order. The trouble was, it doesn’t seem you can buy Daniel Sandler products from any actual store … Continue reading
So I did promise myself that I wouldn’t buy any beauty boxes for a few months whilst I worked my way through the product backlog, and I’ve thus far avoided Glossyboxes and the launch of Birchbox in the UK, but this collection from Latest In Beauty suckered me in when they offered free postage. It’s … Continue reading
This was in my October Glossybox and I’m very impressed with their choice. I absolutely love iridescent nail polish, especially blue so this was pretty perfect for me. What’s supposed to be so great about this polish in particular is that Sally Hansen claim to have built all the steps of your manicure into it: base coat, … Continue reading

Wow, I am way past overdue to give you an update on how I’m getting on with this. Sorry! If you haven’t read my original post you can access it here. It has been nearly two months, so am I well on my way to being smoother than a baby’s buttocks? Disappointingly, I do still … Continue reading
Not normally one for buying a lot of nail varnishes I have recently had a bit of a splurge, caused in large part by Rebecca at Be Beautiful following this post which reminded me I hadn’t had a good browse on Fragrance Direct for ages. This was only 99p and apparently has an RRP of … Continue reading
This was waiting for me when I got home from work last night so this is just a quick post to show what I got and I’ll follow up with proper reviews when I’ve tested the products. What I got: DHC Deep Cleansing Oil 30ml – £3.50 I like the idea of oil cleansers and … Continue reading
About a month and a half ago I wrote a post here about how I was trying out using castor oil to see if it could make my hair grow faster/better/longer/stronger. Well, I went to the hairdresser recently and she commented, unprompted, on how the thickness in my hair was really coming back. I have personally … Continue reading
