Payot have released two new body products for May and I have been using their Nutricia Intense Body Nourishing Cream (the other product release is called Celluli-Ultra Performance). When it’s cold I find my skin tends to really need that added hydration, and this jar of cream is certainly helping in that department. The scent [...]
One of the first things I ever learnt when I was in beauty school was the importance of eyebrow shaping. The wrong shape or the wrong thickness can change your entire look so it is important to get it right. Just like fashion and hair, eyebrow trends go through stages and the “2012 brow” really [...]
Mode Cosmetics are constantly adding new shades to their nail polish collection – and there are five pastels which have made the cut and joined the other 66 in time for Autumn. Remember, Mode polishes are just $2.45 and come with a flat edge brush for easy application. I wear these on my toenails (right [...]
I can’t go past a perfume in pretty packaging, and the new fragrance from Nina Ricci – “Nina Fantasy” is packaged in a lovely glass bottle. The apple shape feels relevant to all those Snow White characters currently on screen, but without any kind of dark edge. Against the white background there are touches of [...]
Normally when you purchase a hand wash you don’t pay attention to the packaging – but I did take notice when I first saw the hand wash from Grown. It comes in a box and the plastic pump bottle is dark brown making it a little different, while giving you a hint of the natural, [...]
Spiderman is one superhero who never goes out of style, and to celebrate yet another movie starring the red man OPI have created shades to reflect the action packed release. The movie is called The Amazing Spiderman and will be in cinemas from July. It may seem like a strange combination (nails and spiders) but [...]

It washes off the next day and is transfer resistant, keeping your clothes clean and your legs beautiful.’ When I have a tan my confidence is increased [...]
ORLY’s Nailtrition is a “Nail Strengthening and Growth Treatment”, a little pot of muscle to help peeling, brittle nails. You apply the product like a nail polish, every day for two weeks and remove at the end of each week. This treatment is clear with a tinge of pink, and does leave a nice shine [...]
Garnier have added three new hand creams to their collection, with Nourishing, SOS Repairing and Protecting now part of the Intensive 7 Days line. L-Bifidus is their key ingredient which Garnier describe as “a hydrating anti-evaporation additive”, but lets just say they are hydrating and even when you wash your body the moisture doesn’t wash [...]
Luckily my husband is clean shaven, but if he ever did decide to grow a beard I would be fighting it all the way. To me (and this is not meant to offend anyone with a bearded man, personal choice) I think beards are itchy and make men look older than they are. I like [...]
