It's safe to say that if you're going to use a product like cleansing wipes to treat your skin, you want them to come from the best, and Dr Murad products have an amazing reputation for fighting spots. Therefore, when the opportunity arose to try the new Murad Clarifying Wipes, I thought I'd give them a go even though I'm generally quite anti-wipes and definitely do not recommend them as part of a regular skincare routine! The Murad Clari[...]

Ages and ages and ages ago, right back when I was bang in the middle of my miserable first trimester full of horrid all day morning sickness, I was invited to an event at the Michael Van Clarke salon. I'd heard such amazing things about the venue and stylists, but unfortunately the nausea meant I couldn't attend. Thankfully, a few weeks later I was invited along for a personal visit where I was given a tour of the facilities as well as a cut a[...]
If you follow me on Instagram (seriously, you really should...I update it like my life depends on it) then you'll know that I've had a few Jurlique products to play with over the past few weeks. I attended an event to be introduced to the brand who have recently launched into M&S Your Beauty, but I didn't want to post about the launch until I'd had a chance to try out the products. Thankfully all is well, they are an awesome range, and I'm[...]
Two months in and I'm still enjoying putting these Instagram posts together, so I really hope you're enjoying reading them! Top Row I had a day of indulgence which started with an amazing facial with Biologique Recherche (them of P50 fame) and yes that really does say Placenta... ...before I treated myself to a tea for two, for one. Unless you count baby. Which I did... ...then a final bout of bliss at K West Spa for a pregnancy[...]
I'm no fragrance snob; a scent doesn't have to be exclusive or expensive for me to love it and I've fallen equally hard for £10 perfumes as I have for £100 perfumes. However, if you had told me last year that I'd not only consider a celebrity-endorsed fragrance, I'd actually really like it too, I'd have definitely thought you were winding me up...Yet here we are with my review of Taylor Swift's fragrance and I'm happy to report it's a bit of a[...]
I love a good powder foundation as it's the easiest way to achieve high coverage on both spots and spot scars. It's easy to work with, stays in place and works brilliantly with oily skin which is why it's something I often reach for, especially during bad skin periods. Clarins Skin Illusion Loose Powder Foundation is like a luxury take on the typical, bog standard powder foundation. It's beautifully packaged, well formulated and very easy to[...]
Here we have my last post letting you know about the new collections from Models Own. This one is another glitter launch, which you might find a little overkill considering how much sparkle there is in the newest Models Own launches, and I wouldn't be in complete disagreement with you to be honest, however, there are a couple of gems to check out, so do keep an open mind! The Models Own Fireworks Collection is actually quite well thought[...]
It's now 2 years since I started this blog, if you can believe it? 2 years! Time really does fly when you're having fun and that saying could not be more apt when discussing my blogging escapades. This year also marks 10 years of the cult Elemis product, Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, which any skincare lover will know has cult status as being one of the few moisturisers that really delivers on everything it promises; the best part is that it's not[...]
It's Models Own weekend on Beauty Geek it seems! This is the second of three posts regarding new releases from Models Own and I think this collection is probably my favourite. Models Own Velvet Goth contains five beautifully vampy shades that are well pigmented and contain a good amount of glitter. However, interestingly, they dry matte, meaning the finish is sort of a textured, gentle take on glitter; glitter for growns-ups is probably how I perc[...]
It's that time again; time to pick a winner of my Philips Visapure competition! Thanks to all who entered and sorry I couldn't give away more than just the one facial brush. If you're a skincare fan, I have a couple of amazing competitions coming up, featuring one of my all-time favourite skincare brands, so definitely keep your eye out for those as I'm so excited about them! Lots of you took advantage of the multi-entry options which resu[...]
