The 'renewing elixir' Crème de la Mer has been on my wishlist for a long time so I was thrilled to be given samples of five La Mer products to trial over a 7 day period. I was actually given the samples over the summer during the heatwave and did a little test then but … Continue reading A Week Of La Mer
Whew - I can't believe how long this heatwave is lasting! It feels like we are having a proper summer for once. Although I can't help but feel absolutely exhausted come the evening where there is no respite and the house is boiling hot. I write this as the England/Croatia match is on, sitting by … Continue reading Summer Skin
I tried a few products from Charlotte Tilbury and think I finally found the perfect eye cream
I can't believe I haven't written in so long and it's not that I don't want to. I often think about this blog and ways to improve it, but alas other things (i.e. work) always get in the way and I end up prioritising them.

This started when I was in my 30s as I know the skin around the eyes is particularly fine and gets more so as we get older. I'm pretty fortunate to not have dark circles (I … Continue reading Eye Know, I Haven’t Written In A While…
It's that time of the year where Christmas madness descends on towns and cities. Websites are slow and shops are heaving; full of harassed, frantic looking people desperately searching for the perfect gift for their spouse, mother in law, 'secret santa' colleague and cat. I have managed to avoid all this because, don't hate me, … Continue reading That Time Of The Year
The days are getting darker and colder so I've been in need of a heavier foundation. I was browsing my local Marks & Spencer recently and they do a vast array of cosmetics and beauty products that you won't find in your local Boots or Superdrug. I used some of the Autograph range of make … Continue reading A Fantastic Affordable Foundation
