I know, sorry, more Beauty Pie, but it's win win for me as I like to talk about them and you seem to like to read about them, so here we are with more Beauty Pie love. Most people rave about the Beauty Pie skincare, whereas I'm much more into their make-up and there are at least three products of theirs that I use on a daily basis (do get yourself the newBlush Trio that I reviewe[...]
Disclaimer: PR Sample - I have not been paid for this feature. Just before my last holiday in May, I got everything waxed and spent the first few days afterwards in quite a lot of pain as my underarms were very sore. I use crutches, so if you think of how moving on crutches works - with the constant rubbing of the arms moving against the torso - this sort of action creates a horrible friction that caused some very nasty sores. I realise this is[...]
Disclaimer: PR Sample - I have not been paid for this feature. I have another fabulous QVC UK TSV for you, this time courtesy of the anti-ageing range Time Bomb. The Time Bomb Apres Summer Shimmer Collection contains five full-sized skin and body products, including a new launch alongside some old favourites. The new launch is the Show Off Shimmer Lotion, of which you get a generous 250ml. This is described as a "body highlighter" that pr[...]
Disclaimer: PR Sample and Affiliate links - I have not been paid for this feature. The Summer Holidays have completely taken over my life, and to be honest, I'm loving having lots of time with my Little Man to do stuff together, but it does mean my lovely blog is getting woefully neglected, and I really should've posted this fabulous NIOD 4 Piece Concentrated Skincare Collection sooner, as it's currently a QVC UK TSV until tonight, so NIOD fans (or[...]
If you're a Murad fan, I strongly recommend keeping an eye on their American site (find it here - it looks like they have their version of an acid toner coming out soon, so looking forward to that!) as it gives you a bit of a heads-up on new launches that might be coming our way...of course it also means that you'll see products that you really want that you might not be able to get your hands on for ages, but that's the price you pay! The Murad 4[...]
Disclaimer: PR Sample and Affiliate links - I have not been paid for this feature. I'll be honest, now I'm in my 9th year of blogging, there are very few brands that get me particularly excited (although there are, thankfully, still a few!) but IT Cosmetics is definitely a brand that I keep a very close eye on, mostly because their products are just so fantastically reliable. They have some of the best eyeshadow formulas I've ever tried, some of[...]
There's a lot to love about the Beauty Bakerie Game of Cones palette...not just the awesome name, but the mix of fun, yet surprisingly wearable, shades that provide lots of colour and lots of shimmer, making this the sort of palette that's handy to have in your collection for times when you fancy a bit more pizzazz. The Beauty Bakerie Game of Cones contains 12 shades in total, all of which have names that you might associate with Game of Th[...]
Disclaimer: PR Sample - I have not been paid for this feature. If you're a regular reader then you'll know that I'm a die-hard retinol convert; I think it's one of the most skin-transforming ingredients out there and I use it religiously. However, when you use a good quality retinol, it's quite hard to slot a good chemical exfoliation in anywhere (mainly because retinol does such a good job at keeping skin renewed) and I've made no effort to ke[...]
I usually focus on foundations that provide a bit of glow, and very rarely allow anything mattifying into my routine as my skin can look really dry under a matte finish, but the MUA Pro Base Long Wear Matte Finish Foundation has been getting a lot of wear recently as the hot weather has resulted in an often shiny face that has actually benefited from a matte foundation. The first big surprise from the MUA Pro Base Long Wear Matte Finish Fou[...]
Disclaimer: PR Samples - I have not been paid for this feature. This weekend sees the arrival of a pair of gorgeous fragrance sets from independent fragrance boutique, Shay & Blue, as part of a QVC UK TSV. There are two sets, Summer and Winter, although the Winter set will only be available later in the year and you need to have purchased the Summer set to be entitled to the Winter set at the discounted TSV price. Just getting that out[...]
I might as well rename my blog Beauty Pie Geek at this rate, since I seem to be featuring Beauty Pie more regularly than any other brand at the moment, but in my defence, Beauty Pie have released some crackers recently, and I think my favourite of all has to be the new Beauty Pie Triple Beauty Good Lighting Luminous Blush Trio, even though it has an inexplicably long name, but there you go. The Beauty Pie Triple Beauty Good Lighting Luminou[...]
