Having joined the ranks of commuters to the job Mecca that is Dublin, during our annual fortnight long heatwave, I’ve gained a new appreciation for base products that REALLY stick around. Leaving the house with a gorgeous, dewy glow unfortunately morphs into a sweaty, melty mess by the time I hit the lab,...
So in the dead of the night while you were all sleeping, I snuck up an oul YouTube video. How very crafty of me! In actuality the video’s ETA was sometime yesterday afternoon, until all manner of technological mishaps befell me. Woe is me etc etc. Well finally here it is, the Lip Product Addict...

You might have already seen my first impressions video of the Kevyn Aucoin Creamy Glow Duo #4 in Sculpting Medium/Candlelight which I uploaded earlier in the week. I’ve been trying to write this post since then, but my feelings on the product kept changing! At first they were mixed. Then...
It’s Monday. I’m sure we’re all feeling a little worse for wear, and our skin probably reflects that. I know mine is white-undies-mistakenly-thrown-in-a-darks-wash grey. Annoying eh? Well today I’ve got two little products to share with you which totally add some glow to your...
This is gonna be a photo-heavy post. Bear with me ladies! So if you watched my 2013 Makeup Favourites video, you’ll know that second only to Urban Decay’s Revolution Lipsticks, my favourite lippies have to be The Body Shop Colour Crush range. They’re soft and moisturising, yet pigment...
