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…

Learn skincare with me. Lesson 5: Ceramides
Ceramides are one of those words I’ve heard thrown around in skincare a lot, but never knew too much about what they were until I did a bit of digging. A lot of skincare products include ceramides (for good reason, of course) so back in the day when I was throwing products on my face…

Why all the hype around Olaplex?
I’ll tell you why: it’s amazing. I’m going to be completely honest here and admit that I very rarely cut my hair (I know, terrible!) so it’s almost always in need of some TLC. I’ll give it a trim myself occasionally (you can get away with it on long hair, I swear!), otherwise it’s just…

Galaxy Nail Art – Nail Stamping
My first time stamping! Ok, I know it’s not perfect but my back started aching…. I’m a bit of perfectionist, so I had the image of how I wanted these to turn out and I was going to get as close to it as possible. I actually attempted this to try it out and then…

Lip Balms that ACTUALLY work
I’ve been having such trouble with my lips for weeks. The relentless dryness, burning and stinging really started to take its toll on my mood. After countless Google searches for ‘the best lip balms for dry/sore lips’ and whatever other variations I could think of out of desperation, I’d started to despair as nothing seemed…
