Yves Saint Laurent: Vernis À Lèvres Vinyl Cream Autumn 2016 Look

Last week (September 19) I was invited to Yves Saint Laurent for a masterclass with the brand’s European Makeup Artist Fred Létailléur, to discover their newest innovations from the Autumn 2016 ad campaign, Vernis À Lèvres Vinyl Cream featuring model Cara Delevingne. The event was the perfect pick-me-up and as you know, I adore YSL makeup, so it was an event that was truly meant to be. For the…

My Top 5 – Lip Gloss, Balm & Oil

As you know I’m a big fan of lipstick, but I’m also a lover of lip gloss and the benefits of lip balms & oils. On days where I’m wearing strong eye makeup, or matching my jewellery to my outfit rather than my lips, I opt for a glossy finish because I find it a…

My Top 5 – BB/CC/Concealer

As you’ll remember, I’m doing a My Top 5 beauty products series, and today’s post is the third in the series. This is all about the tricksters of makeup & covering up, that help minimize spots, dark circles and even out skin tone with just one little product. When I began using makeup, I had no clue…

My Top 5 – Lipstick

As you know, back at the end of August I started ‘My Top 5’ beauty products series, and today’s post is the second in the series. Like mascara, lipstick is one of my all-time favourite pieces from the beauty drawer. When I wear lipstick, I always feel confident, sexy and ready for what the day…

Steal Her Style: Cara Delevingne

I’ve updated the Steal Her Style: Cara Delevingne post, as it’s been a top search & most-visited piece this past month! Cara Delevingne has no doubt been one of the biggest models on the planet in the last few years. She became a working model at the young age of just 16 (and she’s only 23!), and has walked…

My Top 5 – Mascara

So I’ve been toying with the idea of writing a ‘My Top 5’ beauty products list post for a while now, and I’m starting the series with my top five favourite mascaras. Mascaras are one of my all-time favourite pieces from the beauty drawer, it was one of the first pieces I picked up when…

Yves Saint Laurent: Les Sahariennes Summer 2015 Look

Last month I was invited to Yves Saint Laurent in Brown Thomas for a “Face Date” with Rebecca to try out their newest SS15 products from the Summer 2015 look for their latest ad campaign Les Saraheinnes Sun-Kissed Blur Perfector that features model Cara Delevingne, similar to my exclusive invite with Fred Létailléur. I adore receiving invites to events & launches, and…

Review: Yves Saint Laurent Eyeliner Effet Faux Cils

For the past two weeks, I’ve been testing & wearing my newest eyeliner from Yves Saint Laurent. I’m sure my readers know that I am a fiend for anything by YSL, from their lipsticks to their skincare and their fashion counterpart Saint Laurent, I just love it all. At Christmas, I was lucky enough to have…

Killer Fashion in 2014

Well I thought to reminisce on the fabulous blog year that was 2014. Although my personal life had a rather rocky year, the blog is what really kept me focused on what I wanted to do with myself. Beyoncé dropped her mind-blowingly amazing fourth album, BEYONCÉ, with zero promotion at the very end of 2013. This…

Yves Saint Laurent: Black Opium Autumn/Winter 2014 Look

At the beginning of the month I had an exclusive appointment at the Yves Saint Laurent beauty counter in Brown Thomas, for a one-on-one consultation with YSL Northern European makeup artist Fred Létailléur. Meeting this renowned makeup artist was so exciting (he’s featured in many of YSL’s emails!), and together we discussed their new products,…
