Every now and again I like to unleash my inner rock chick, so when an invite to the UK and Ireland press launch of Kat Von D Beauty arrived, I cleared a space in my diary to be there. And what a stunning event! From the choice of venue...
I've never tried By Terry make-up before, but I'm completely in love with this natural finish foundation, which I discovered at one of the brand's recent press events. Light Expert Click Brush Illuminating Flawless Foundation Brush, £48, claims to sculpt, smooth and offer a natural finish with buildable coverage. Containing correcting...
I'm a little bit fussy when it comes to foundations, BB's and CC's, and have tried many top brands to find that they just don't seem to work on my dry/dehydrated skin. As some of you will know, I've been going through an extended mineral make-up phase...
Sleek MakeUp is another affordable cosmetics brand that you seem to love, and I don't blame you, as what you get for the price is pretty impressive. Take the new Eye & Cheek Palettes and Precious Metals Highlighting Palette - good quality packaging that looks five times pricier...

LOLA's new collection is what far-flung destinations are truly made of; if the colours don't give you a lift and put a spring in your step I don't know what will! The Spirited Away spring/summer colour collection was inspired by desert skies and sun-baked vistas, and...
If you like a bit of Bourjois - and let's face it, who doesn't - you're going to love the forthcoming Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick (£8.99). Possessing the hot new finish of the season, matte, the colour pay-off is excellent and the formula feels light-as-air when...
Giorgio Armani Maestro Fusion Makeup (£39) is actually the first base from the brand I've ever tried - and according to Linda Cantello, International Make-Up Artist for Giorgio Armani Cosmetics, it's not a foundation but a 'complexion perfector'. The formula is really quite unique and clever,...
