MAC Prolongwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation (shade NC20/ 25ml/ £25.50). I was first in line at my local MAC a few months ago when this launched and I was so excited to try it and maybe find a new holy grail foundation, but unfortunately I was pretty disappointed. So firstly the packaging is great as it is in a tube so you have full...

Everyone loves a good dupe so I thought I'd share my latest find with you... Recently I picked up MACs Prolongwear Lip Pencil in 'Etcetera' (£15) on a whim (it's a rich nudey brown shade with a slight orange undertone) and when I got home I realised I already had a lip liner which was practically identical, the Kiko Smart Lip Pencil in No. 700...

Maxfactor 2000 Calorie Mascara (£9.99) I recently spotted this mascara in Boots and it brought back memories of when my mum used to use this all the time, back then it was in a more rounded tube and was navy blue in colour, clearly they have had a packaging re-think and brought it a bit more up to date with a sleek black...

Simple Micellar Water (200ml/ £4.49) I was all out of my Garnier Micellar Water and had spotted this one on the shelves so I thought I'd try something different.  This Micellar water is designed with sensitive skin in mind, it says it contains 3 vitamins, 2 skin loving ingredients and no artificial perfume or colour. I am actually really impressed with this so...

Kevyn Aucoin The Celestial Powder in Candlelight (3.1g/ £35) I've been obsessed with my Benefit High Beam liquid highlighter lately but with my weird skin type I can only really use it when I'm using other cream products (or I can layer it straight on top of my foundation) and because Summer seems to be here (kind of) I wanted to get a...

I have done a nude nail post before, but since it is my nail colour of choice I have added quite a few to my collection since then so I thought it was time for an update. Some oldies have stayed such as the Models Own 'Buff Pink' a perfect barely there nude pink which never quite goes opaque but has just enough pigment...

Ruth Crilly Colab Dry Shampoo London (200ml/ £3.49) Ruth Crilly Colab Dry Shampoo London Extreme Volume (200ml/ £4.49) I've finally got around to trying the Ruth Crilly Dry Shampoo and here are my thoughts. I chose the London scent for three reasons one it was the most classic scent, two I preferred the black packaging and three it's London. The scent reminds me...

1. Ren Rosa Centifolia Express Make Up Remover Just repurchased a new bottle of this, this is a thick cream cleanser which removes every trace of make up, leaves skin feeling ridiculously soft and hydrated without leaving any kind of film on the skin. 2. Korres Jasmine Lip Butter A soft, sweet smelling balm with a tiny hint of milky pink colour that...

As soon as I saw Caroline Hirons' Instagram about the new Muji Skincare line I knew I'd be taking a trip there at the next possible moment.  The line has been in the making for a long time and has clearly been very thought through, it is all water based and the water is sourced directly from a fresh mountain supply in Japan,...

Burberry Eye Colour 'Almond' (2.7g/ £23) I popped into the Burberry Beauty Box with the intention of picking up the famous Pale Barley, but I left with this and it has quickly become my go-to shadow of choice. The packaging of course is amazing, gunmetal grey with the burberry check embossed on the compact and the product, magnetic closure and a decent sized...

Ren Rosa Centifolia Express Make Up Remover I used this so much this month that I just had to repurchase, it's so effective but so gentle at the same time, doesn't leave a film on the skin and feels super moisturising. Tea Tree Water I recently reintroduced this old favourite, I don't know how I've been without it, it's really refreshing, helps with...

I had yet another trip to one of my favourite shops the other day and picked up a few new bits I thought I'd share with you guys. I love the whole & Other Stories aesthetic, it's so clean, chic and grown up, it just really appeals to me, I always get inspired when I go there and even when I'm searching the...
