I think "the one" has finally been found. During the day, I find foundations too heavy and "cakey" for my skin, as although I complain about my complexion a lot, I do have pretty good skin which tends to behave most of the time. I prefer using BB creams for a light to medium coverage as I find they are less clogging of my pores so the vicious cycle of 'pore-clogging -> spots -> apply more foundation -> pore-clogging -> spots' never really occurs and they are hydrating enough for me not to have to apply a moisturiser beforehand. I must have tried about six BB creams so far in the past year from various brands and I haven't been majorly impressed, then I spotted this little wonder in The Body Shop. I picked up shade 01 in their Colour-Adapting Tinted Cream for £12 last week and I am amazed every single time I use it. The cream comes out white, which at first I found a bit strange but thankfully when it is worked into the skin the...

After receiving the Latest in Beauty advent calendar, I had an abundance of sample-sized skincare products all over my bedroom and I realised I really needed to get some order.

The product itself smells kind of like Sudocreme (which I personally don’t mind) and a little goes a long way, and I think this is the actual full size of the product so it is going to last me a while. When the product is used up I’m definitely go...

Yo! So, for years I have been watching Beauty channels on YouTube and knew that someday I would love to be able to create them for myself. Here's some of my initial feelings when it came to wanting to start a channel... - Talking to a camera is flippin' awkward! My respect for those who post videos on a regular basis has literally shot through the roof. I am constantly worrying that next door can hear me speaking to myself and they'll think I've turned into a lunatic... I've had a few test runs and I'm starting to become a little bit more comfortable in front of the camera.   - I used to worry that people from my school/work would see them and take the p*ss... but now I've realised that is kind of inevitable and it's gonna happen so I may as well just deal with it. - I worry that nobody will want to watch my videos and find them boring... but then I thought, if I just make videos which I know I'd enjoy I'm sure somebody out there would ...
