A Brand for Happy Hair – Kerastase Resistance
It had been years (literally) since I did anything with my hair. I love having long hair, and my reluctance to go to the hair dresser likely stems from those experiences we’ve all had in the past: leaving the hairdresser close to tears after a ‘quick trim’ turned into a whole new, shorter and most […]

The Top 5 Body Moisturisers for Summer*
*According to me… I have such a love/hate relationship with body products. I love using them, but I hate how they feel on my skin. I know, I know, it doesn’t make much sense, but hear me out. I hate the feeling of my skin being dry and uncomfortable, especially when I’m out of the […]

Coco & Eve – The Hair Mask
This is one of those products you’ve probably seen heavily advertised on Instagram over the years. Wonder if it’s as good as the hype? I have very long hair that goes past my waist, so naturally my hair is in need of a bit more TLC than shorter hair. I’ve tried various products to help […]

The Drowsy Sleep Company Silk Eye Mask
I’m a big fan of using an eye mask while I sleep. I’ve been on and off with them for years, but after my cat’s recent habit and ability to wake me up in the night with a whack of the paw to my face, I thought it’s probably a good idea to stay on […]

Why I won’t be buying another Morphe Liquid Lipstick
I’ve come to love Morphe’s eyeshadows. I know there’s a divide among the beauty community around whether or not they’re good, but I’ve personally found them to be great value for what you pay (mostly, at least). The lipsticks however, I’m not so sure… I bought a few of them at once, which included one […]

Ultrasun SPF – Facial Sun Protection
I’ve been a fan of Swiss-made Ultrasun products for a few years now. I’m very particular about sun protection as I’ve had it drilled into me from a very young age. After using Ultrasun body products for quite some time, I ventured further into the brand and tried their face products. At the time, there […]

Herbivore Botanicals – Blue Tansy Mask
Where do I start? Herbivore Botanicals has to be one of my favourite skincare brands. From the product quality, to the packaging design, to the range available – they’re just perfect for me! I had a bit of a buying spree of Herbivore last year and I definitely don’t regret it. I found some staples […]

Why your winged liner doesn’t come out ‘right’
Have you ever tried to recreate a look from a picture/YouTube video that you really like that involves winged liner, but it just won’t go right? I like to think of myself as pretty experienced with winged liner at this point. I’ve been doing it for about 14 years (I can’t count the amount of […]

Caudalie Mousse Nettoyant Fleur de Vigne (Instant Foaming Cleanser)
We all know how important the double-cleanse is, especially for those of us that use a lot of products and are heavy makeup wearers. I absolutely love my stash of cleansing balms, but I realised I didn’t have enough variety of non-balm products (or so I told myself…) I was just looking at some foaming […]

IT Cosmetics
I have found my new holy grails in base makeup. For a long time I’d seen and heard about the It Cosmetics CC+ Cream, but as a heavy-coverage foundation lover I didn’t feel I could justify the brand’s price price for a CC cream. It was only after I received a sample of the foundation […]
