Review and EOTD: NYC Best Of Broadway Eyeshadow Quad Palette

Review and EOTD: NYC Best Of Broadway Eyeshadow Quad Palette

I’m always looking for products that make  life easier, or that are nice and simple. Months ago I bought the NYC Union Square Eye Quad Palette (Review Here) and to be honest used it a few times and pushed it to the back with some other palettes I don’t often…


Review: Murine Hayfever Eye Drops

Review: Murine Hayfever Eye Drops

It won’t surprise many of you when I say I have hay fever. Like many people in the nation I suffer year in and out and have to take both tablets and eye drops (Sometimes even a nasal spray too). My hay fever isn’t just down to the hot days…

Review: Sun Protection from Eau Thermale Avene

I know what you are thinking, ‘Mel, have you seen the weather outside?!’ Yes, I know its wet, cold and miserable here in Britain at present (Probably will be throughout the whole Summer too, but we can but live in hope!) but that doesn’t mean than some lucky people won’t…


NOTD/Review: Original Sugar’s Velveteen (The Velvet Manicure)

NOTD/Review: Original Sugar’s Velveteen (The Velvet Manicure)

As many of you will know if you have a bit of obsession for on trend nails; texture is the new gloss! Many of you will have previously seen caviar (Nail beads), decals (Stickers and gems) and air brushing designs (Using nail varnish and even stencils with glitters). There’s so…

Review: Ahava Dermud Nourishing Body Cream

I have used many products now in the Ahava range and always been very impressed with the results I have achieved with them. So much so, I even use the Ahava Dermud Intensive Foot Cream on clients (Review Here). I was recently asked if I would like to try and…

Review: Abi O Soft Sun Self Tan For English Roses from the House of BeauBronz

#The sun is out, the sky is blue, my skin looks pale, what shall I do?# Yes it looks like the UK is about to get a little sun again which means many of us may be exposing a little bit of skin. Except mine is looking closer to a…


Review: Montagne Jeunesse De-Clog Pores Nasal Strips (Part of the Skin Heroes Range)

Review: Montagne Jeunesse De-Clog Pores Nasal Strips (Part of the Skin Heroes Range)

No matter how old we are, lets be honest… We’ve all had a black head or a blocked pore on our nose at some point. In fact, I openly admit I still get blocked pores on my nose now and its something I hate. Granted, they aren’t very noticeable and…

The Liz Earle Colour Range With Swatches

As many of you may know I am a massive fan of Liz Earle products and have reviewed many products in their skin/body range. I find everything I’ve used to be of the highest quality and many products I have repurchased so I can still use on a day to…

Review: Liz Earle Make Up Brushes (Powder, Blush and Precision Brushes)

This is going to be the first part of my Liz Earle makeup reviews as I was sent some products from the Liz Earle Colour range to share with you. I am splitting the reviews as there was a lot of products and if I put them all together I…


Review: Eau Thermale Avene Ystheal+ Anti-Ageing Emulsion

Review: Eau Thermale Avene Ystheal+ Anti-Ageing Emulsion

Eau Thermal Avene products have completely changed my skin for the better and something I swear by. I use them on a day to day basis and can’t praise them enough when it comes to problematic skin like my own (Eczema and Psoriasis). After reviewing the Eau Thermale Avene Ystheal+ Eye…


Review: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum (In 53 Light Beige)

Review: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum (In 53 Light Beige)

It has taken me nearly 3 months to right this review, not because I procrastinate (Which I do) but because I have had trouble deciding whether I actually like it or not. When you really like a brand like I like Bourjois, its hard to then give something an unflattering…


Review: Percy & Reed Hair Products (With Tips and Tricks)

Review: Percy & Reed Hair Products (With Tips and Tricks)

Having worked in the hair industry it means I got to try products that many haven’t. I couldn’t list all the brands over the years I’ve tried, but it doesn’t mean I don’t still look for new things. Its what I love about being a Blogger and reviewing. I was…


Review: Carmex – Making the Most of Your Lips

Review: Carmex – Making the Most of Your Lips

My obsession for lip balms is ridiculous at times, overall I wear more lip balms than lipsticks. I like to keep my lips in tip top condition and lip balms help me achieve just that. I was sent 3 lovely goodies from the people at Carmex to share my thoughts…


Review: Garnier Caffine Anti-dark Circles 2-in-1 Tinted Eye Roll-On in Medium

Review: Garnier Caffine Anti-dark Circles 2-in-1 Tinted Eye Roll-On in Medium

I think dark circles under your eyes is something that effects most people at some point in their life time. Partying and working hard when I was younger was a huge factor, then came children and sleepless nights… Now I think its more of an age thing. I’ve always used…

Review: L’Occitane Pivoine Delicate Limited Edition (A Few Products From The Collection)

Whenever I get L’Occitane goodies in the post I let out a little squeal of excitement! The quality of the products in the L’Occitane range is high end in my opinion and it makes me feel luxurious wearing them. What was even more special about this parcel was the collection…
