If you’re a polish fanatic then US 4-free brand Zoya will be firmly fixed to your radar: it’s got amazing shades, incredible finishes and is praised up and down the beauty blogosphere like you wouldn’t believe. Problem: we couldn’t get it here. Solution: now we can! An Irish distributor has now taken the 300+ shade [...]
It’s hard to believe, really, but it’s now almost a full three months since I went under the laser to have my short-sightedness corrected. As I’ve previously mentioned, it wasn’t a decision I took lightly, partly because of the expense involved and partly because, as plenty of well-meaning individuals reminded me on a near daily [...]
Does this look like Rachel Weisz to you? By now many of you will have seen that the L’Oreal group got yet another ad campaign pulled for ridiculous overuse of Photoshop. This time it was the turn of the very beautiful Rachel Weisz, a woman so gorgeous that she’s the friggin new bride of [...]
This is for those of you who love colour and aren’t afraid to show it! As always, you don’t have to use the exact same products as I did, in fact I recommend fishing about in your current collection and pulling out those unused super-bright palettes! 1. I started off without any base, as I [...]
After a bit of a shaky start with this new BB from Estee Lauder (my skin was crap so everything looked rotten; I thought it was giving me spots but it turned out my period was just due, whoops!), I’ve decided that I’m actually really impressed with it. The shade I was sent, fair, is [...]
At last my love – you’re here. Oh how I love Friday!
Poor Gwyneth! Although she has a happy smile and lovely gleaming skin in these photos taken for the March issue of Harper’s Bazaar, she cannot hide the fact that THERE IS SOMETHING TERRIBLY WRONG WITH HER LEG. It seems to be contorted at an impossible angle – how could this have happened? It’s as if [...]
There’s loads coming from Bourjois for February and we’ll be blogging about more of it soon but lets have a look at a couple of complexion enhancers today. These fit into the Healthy Mix/Healthy Mix Serum suite of products: this is Healthy Balance Unifying Powder 10 hour, it’ll be €11.99 and will be available in [...]
The bottom of my handbag is a sea of bus tickets, lip-balms and, mostly, loyalty cards. If a store has a loyalty scheme, you can bet your bottom No7 voucher that I’m a part of it. That you can collect points as you spend really lessens that guilty post-splurge feeling. Sure it’s nearly as good [...]
The other night, watching another Peter Barlow and Carla post coital scene, I was hard pressed to tell which of them was wearing more make up. Peter’s lipstick/heavy eyeliner/blusher habit has been going on for quite some time now. It seems to me that when he’s not having affairs with Carla/Cruella and fleecing people in [...]
Retro: the Clinique Computer Remember the poor auld Clinique Computer? A bright idea in its day, its low-tech abacus-style approach is pretty outdated in gadget and interactive-savvy 2012 and though it’s still used on counters, at Brown Thomas Dublin, it’s just been superseded by something else that’s really rather good. More on that in a [...]
We’ve seen eye-colour specific products before in the shape of things like Smashbox Photo Op Eye Enhancing shadows and L’Oreal Paris Luminizer mascaras and liners, but none have been quite so affordable as NYC’s take on things. Their IndividualEyes Custom Compacts clock in at €3.99, and contain a quartet of shadows created to suit blue, brown, or green eyes, [...]
