Serums have become an obsession of mine in the past years. Jurlique is responsible for the latest addition to my skincare kit: the Rose Moisture Plus Daily Moisture Balancing serum
Review: Garnier Ultimate Blends Honey Treasures Strength Restorer
One thing I love is honey, so there was no way I’d say no to Garnier’s new addition to the Ultimate Blends range, the Honey Treasures Strength Restorer, with honey, propolis and royal jelly.
BFI Marilyn Monroe season
Marilyn Monroe season has been declared by by the BFI Southbank. How much love do we have for them now?
In June, the star’s birthday month, they are screening 15 films starring one of Hollywood’s most iconic actresses, including some rarely-screened ones (like We’re Not Married and Clash By Night), in partnership with Stylist Magazine.
Apart from Hollywood starlet, sex-symbol and tragic heroin, Monroe is also a fashion icon, having donned one of dresses that made fashion history to grace her famous curves – who can forget the white halterneck with flowing skirt (by costume designer William Travilla) over a New York City subway grate, from the 1955 film Seven Year Itch?
Cinematic and fashion history birds with one stone, I say.
To buy tickets, head to the BFI website, where you can also explore more about Marilyn.
Review: Eucerin Sun Fluid Mattifying SPF 30 and Sun Creme Tinted SPF 50+
This probably got mentioned before but I always block all sun from my face and correct the colour with makeup. I do that because I think it is just not worth taking sun on the face.
Eucerin has a fantastic line of sunscreens and their face products are not different. I was very happy to try (and be using) their Sun Fluid Mattifying SPF 30 and Sun Creme Tinted SPF 50+.

Nails of the week: Black and white
Lately, I’ve been a bit lazy with my nail art; this does happen to me from time to time, and at the moment I am going through an almost “cannot be bothered” phase.
Review: MAC Wash & Dry Morange lipstick and Freshen Up Highlighter
I am a sucker for packaging. Now that is out of the way, let me tell you about the two items from the MAC Wash & Dry limited edition I bought.
Sucker no1 here succumbed to a lipstick and a highlight powder. It could’ve been worse.
Review: NYX Doll Eye Long Lash mascara
I never turn down the chance to discover a new mascara and previous experiences have proved that expensive does not mean good.
The latest on my lashes is the NYX Doll Eyes mascara, which has an hourglass shape brush to create unreal dolly eyelashes.
Review: Schwarzkopf got2b Mind Blowing express styling range
Even though it is not a great thing, we are all rushing people. I, for once, always seem to be running that little bit late. Tools that helps us save a bit of time are always welcome, so I was glad to try the Schwarzkopf got2b Mind blowing range.
