Learn skincare with me. Lesson 3: SPF
To be honest, I don’t know why I haven’t made this the first post in the series because is there really anything more important?! By now we are all aware of what the sun can do and what damage it can cause, so it’s ultra important to use SPF and protect our skin as best…

Learn skincare with me. Lesson 2: Hyaluronic Acid
The next instalment of ‘Learn skincare with me’ is focusing on another ‘top dog’ ingredient in the skincare world: Hyaluronic Acid. It sounds scarier than it is – it’s definitely not going to erode your face when incorporated into your routine. In fact, the results are so good that you’re doing your skin a disservice…

The skincare brushes you didn’t know you needed (you don’t… but you do)
I’ve always hated sticking my fingers in pots of products, regardless of how clean they are. It just feels like I’m contaminating the rest of it. I especially can’t stand when I have to scrape it out from under my nails afterwards (ugh!). Brands seem to be getting better at including spatulas etc, but there’s…

The 7 critical beauty commandments you need to commit to ASAP
(As per my opinion). There are so many things that I’ve learned over the years that I absolutely should have given more weight to.

Learn skincare with me. Lesson 1: Vitamin C
Vitamin C: one of the superheroes of skincare. I could dive right in and ramble on about vitamin C in my typical fashion, but I actually want to structure the information as it’s a pretty important topic when it comes to skincare. I’d be pretty surprised if you’ve not heard of the wonder-nutrient in skincare…

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…

My experience with Beautypie part 2: Makeup
Naturally, after reviewing the skincare products I’ve used from Beautypie it makes sense to follow-up with my thoughts on the makeup products too… I haven’t used as much of the makeup range as I have the skincare, but that definitely doesn’t mean I haven’t found some products that have earned their permanent place in my…

My experience with Beautypie Part 1: Skincare
If you haven’t heard of Beautypie and you’re into makeup or skincare, you must have been living under a rock. I’m a bit late to the party in opining on the brand so please forgive me. Better late than never and all that jazz, and trust me: Beautypie is still very much relevant! A bit…

My experience with Facetheory skincare…
I’d had my eye on Facetheory skincare for quite some time, but early in the year I went for it and bought a few products. Initially I had just bought the cleanser, night cream and the serums. After a few weeks I went back and bought the eye cream and the sets of 2 of…

Easy Cute Cat Nail Art – Nail Stamping
Round two of testing out the nail stamping bits I recently bought, and I thought the perfect theme would be cat-related (of course). I have a black and white cat, so naturally I HAD to go for black and white nails… So let’s get started! I started with the Holo Taco Long-Lasting Base again. I…
