It’s a rare moment that I get excited about an upcoming MAC collection. I generally tried to avoid the hype – excluding the In the Groove collection, but more on that later. I almost squealed with delight last May when I heard that Disney and MAC were collaborating in an upcoming collection. To...

I’ve changed my skin care routine up a bit over the past few weeks. I was suffering from breakouts go leoir but also dryness and sensitivity. My new routine has improved the situation enormously. Here is the video - It’s a fickle world so no doubt I will change my routine again...

I’m back to share some goodies that arrived from Eyeko last week, as promised. I was very late to the Eyeko party. So many YouTubers and bloggers rave about their range so I’m chuffed to have the opportunity to try their products. Here is what I received and my initial impressions: L...

MAC Peechykeen and Springsheen are amongst my favourite blushes. I was recently asked by a reader to do a comparison for shopping purposes. I was happy to oblige since waffling about make-up is my thing. Here are the two beauties in question… Left to right: Peechykeen, Springsheen You’ll...

Penney’s / Primark is a great shop for picking up cheap seasonal accessories that are often identical to those sold in high street stores. I found the same bangle in Penneys and Warehouse, €3 and €16 respectively. You can’t go wrong. Here is what I bought… Have you...

After a hectic day I came to a Delivery Notice’s from the postman. I begrudgingly drove around to the sorting office, they must be sick of seeing my mug at the hatch every day. I collected the packages, not expecting anything exciting. Wrong! One of the packages contained a little Estee Lauder...

Rose hip oil is something I use often on my sensitive skin. I read an article some months ago detailing the benefits of the oil for use on the skin.This is mainly down to the fact that it consists of 80% essential fatty acids. I have heard that many people drink Rose hip tea as it’s chocker...

Before I went away I ordered a few lip products on ebay. Three of them arrived in this mornings post and I felt the need to share them with the world – Ok, so maybe not the world, rather the beauty junkies who inhabit it :) Did I branch out and try something exciting? No, in fact these three...

Yes, I am 26 years old and I have never owned a compact mirror. How is  that possible you ask. Simple, I just never look when I’m re-applying make-up. I’m not a fan of re-applying make-up. I don’t mind lipgloss but I don’t cart extra make-up around with me. When I do need...

The postman brought me some Lush goodies this morning. I love when I tear back the envelope and the scent washes out. Inside there were two things: 1. Keep It Fluffy bath ballistic (€3.50) Smells floral like the dear departed B Never too Busy to be Beautiful; Vanilla, rose and jasmine. I usually...
