Submitted by Organic Beauty View Blog
Summer is officially over and as the seasons change, so should your skincare routine. When the days are grey rather than blue with not a ray of sunshine to be seen, it’s just as important to protect and nourish your skin those cold, overcast days. Generally a good rule of [...]
Dior Christmas 09
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
I think this is one of the very best pieces to ever come from Dior so far….every year there is a limited edition collectable item that people will go to the ends of the earth to get their hands on. The Cristal Boreale collection includes this stand-out item containing pink crystal [...]
Je t’aime Cinq Mondes
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
On a spa tour yesterday (Sofitel SoSPA in St James - AMAZING (and I hate spas!) place), I came across a skin care brand that I think is completely new to the UK. Cinq Mondes was developed by Jean-Louis Poiroux, who, along with his wife, spent 10 years travelling the world, [...]
I Heart You, Michael Kors
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
He may be New York’s darlingest fashion guru, but I adore Michael Kors for his dry, ascerbic and cutting comments on Project Runway: unmissably funny and light relief when Nina Garcia sits po-faced alongside him looking like she has a stick up her ass. Michael is making a personal appearance to [...]
Bubbles, Dahling…
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Fast forward to the new year, and the perfume name on everyone’s lips will be Maison Francis Kurkjdian. Fragrancer to the great and the good..Dior, Chanel, YSL etc..Kurkjdian is coming to Liberty in London. He’s clearly thinking outside of the box already, producing a fragrance bracelet (that you’d actually want to [...]
Love Dior Palette: Clarification

Ok, need to clarify that when the Dior Love Dior limited edition palette launches at Selfridges on 22nd October, there are literally only 200 in the UK, and that’s where you’ll find them. Internationally, from December it will be available in four or five other stores, again in very limited quantities…so [...]
The ‘Jade’ Manicure: CHANEL
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Okay so this one is definitely a perk of the job…a CHANEL manicure in new colour Jade, which goes on sale on 19th October (I’m told there is already a wait-list). Pics above, with added CC nail charm from nail supremo, Sophy Robson’s own bag of tricks. Although I’ve spent summer [...]
Look What We CAN’T Have…..: Lancome Oscillation Powder Foundation
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Ok, so some pan-strategy pearls of wisdom from internal marketing at Lancome means that this fabulous looking Oscillation Powder Foundation is staying firmly in the States and not coming to counters in the UK. Using the same vibration technology as the Oscillation mascara, it apparantly gives a matte, airbrushed finish thanks [...]
It’s Hair, But Not As We Know It…
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Ok, I’ve been meaning to do a post on wild and wonderful wig designer Charlie Le Mindu for ages, but now that his SS10 show has been and gone, the time to do it is now. The pics tell it all really, but this is just such a good example of [...]
Idiot, Idiot
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Yesterday, I was sent a beauty product called i-shine in a little round pot (see above). The ‘i’ threw me, I must admit, as I slathered it on my lids, hoping to recreate that model wet look. Wondering for a little while why it was scented with vanilla, and pondering also [...]
