Months and months ago Becca had an online sale and I purchased some loose powder and these Pressed Shimmer Powder Compacts – they are actually due to be discontinued so are still half price at the moment (£15). They say: A delicately fine shimmer powder that lights up the complexion, illuminating darkened areas and lackluster […]

Look, Don’t Touch! Hera Multi Shimmering Pact Review
I keep discovering new Korean make up to try out, especially high end ones and Hera is one of my discoveries. Hera Multi Shimmering Pact is one of the prettiest palettes I have ever seen: I believe it is a fairly high end brand as this palette cost me £26. There’s also a pink version […]
Aube Couture Designing Highlight Under Eye Setting Powder Review
Sofina’s Aube Couture is what I’d call an elegant brand – it looks chic, the range is chic, the colours are chic. For that reason I also find it a little dull and expensive. Shiseido’s MAQUillage is expensive and chic but more exciting than Aube Couture. Having said that I will still buy odd things […]

Ever pass on a Limited Edition item only to regret it, then find it impossible to find one later? I had this kind of regret with this pretty Shu Uemura blusher/highlighter called STEAM a while ago.

I have never tried a macaroon until recently, when I went to a Bodyshop Bloggers event – there were tons of them on the table! Almondy…crunchy….creamy….nom!

Review: Etude House Top 10 V-Line Maker Highlight & Contour
Contouring, I find, makes a big difference to the face, even if its just a quick bit of shading and highlighting. I bought this unusually names Top 10 V-Line Maker from Ebay, by Korean brand Etude House. As well as being a bronzer, its also a ‘V Line’ maker – V line? Do they mean […]
Review: MAC Colorcraft, Dazzleglass and some other rubbish
Gah! I don’t get the obsession with MAC most of the time – the packaging doesn’t change except for a few vinyl stickers, the colours always look the same to me even when they are supposed to be part of a new range, there’s no (or shall I say slow) innovation in terms of texture […]
