When I hear the words ‘radiance enhancer’ I am straight on it! Radiance, in my view, is the single most enhancing quality skin of any age can have. It’s the thing that makes complexions look full of vitality and light and is an achievable goal with some care and attention. I’ve trialled Emma Hardie Midas…

Complexion bases have a lot of work to do – they need to adaptable, effective, multi-functional and affordable. Hitting all those points is the new e.l.f.

Remember when beauty advent calendars weren’t a thing? Now they are SO much a thing and we have so many to choose from that it’s paradise for beauty lovers.

I will say straight away that this amazing offer for the Bee Good NectaPerfecta Mask is for a very limited time – 48 hours in fact! I’m sure that some BBB readers will remember that this honey based brand featured in one of my beauty boxes a few years ago, quickly becoming a firm favourite.…

A tenth anniversary really is something to celebrate – I have a special bond with the Emma Hardie brand because I was there at the first launch a decade ago. I can remember it really well – Emma was informative, full of personality and such a wonderful, passionate advocate for skin care and self-care that…

There are few skin care brands as adept at speaking to all women as Liz Earle. Remember when Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser arrived? It took the beauty world by storm and still sells at rate of one bottle every 17 seconds – for good reason. Not only is it a super-effective cleanser, but…
