I've been a big fan of Urban Decay products for a long time. I've written about how much I loved their Blackmail lipstick palette, and their Vice palettes are some of my favourites. I am lucky enough to have friends who indulge my makeup addiction and so I found myself at the Look Fantastic x Urban Decay event [...]

As a recent adopter of blonde hair, I have come to realise that looking after your new 'do isn't that simple!

The Tarte tartelette tease palette came into my life when I purchased the limited edition tartelette faves discovery set. This little eyeshadow kit contains six neutral eyeshadows (my fave) in a slim casing, making it perfect for travelling. I wouldn't say any of the shades are particularly groundbreaking but there are some really solid neutrals in [...]

Everyone loves looking picture perfect as often as they can and this new collection claims to keep you looking selfie ready all day long. The collection is made up of a number [...]
I've had sensitive skin since I was a teen. As a general rule of thumb I can usually get away with using slightly "harsher" products on my body, but never on my face. I remember using a Lush bath bomb once and accidentally getting some of the water on my face. After I stepped out [...]
