Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
This whole organics thing is a bugbear of many bloggers - and beauty writers - because the area is so woolly. Global brand H&M have announced the arrival of what they call ‘a skin care range with organic ingredients’. Well, uhh, that’s not the same thing at all as an ‘organic’ [...]
Another iPhone Beauty
Submitted by Beauty Brains Blog
We usually blog about anti-aging technology but here’s a new gadget that actually ages you: it’s a beauty app for the iPhone that makes you look older.
It’s called “Hour Face” and it’s designed to take a picture of your face and show you how you’ll look when you’re an octagenarian – [...]
Shu Uemura UV Underbase
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Hmmm, not sure if these have launched here yet…I’m guessing not, but these new underbases come in a watery texture and are infused with Shu’s famous Depsea water and SPF20 to protect from the sun. It’s designed to even out the complexion and provide a perfect, flawless canvas for foundation.

The Balm For Keeps Watercolour Lipstains
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Loving the look of these lip palettes that launch at Harvey Nichols in the first week of March. Apparantly, they are the first ever lipstains to start as a powder colour - you need to add water to activate, meaning more control over coverage and intensity. They’re £19 each, and you [...]

Guerlain Super Aqua-Eye
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
So while I was lying in bed this morning feeling especially un-beautiful, I thought I’d try these de-puffing eye patches from Guerlain. The Super Aqua range uses desert rose to retain moisture and hyaluronic acid to plump skin. It’s also got a kick of Terminalia Sericea (hey, don’t shoot the messenger…I [...]
‘Liggers With Laptops’
Submitted by British Beauty Blogger
Oh, you gotta love Fashion Week! It’s almost more entertaining for the staggering quotes on bloggers than it is for the fashion - in fact, I would say I have learned more about fashion writers’ views on bloggers than I have about any autumn/winter collections (other than Jaeger patent biker boots [...]
Why Does Foundation Make My Face Photograph White?
Submitted by Beauty Brains Blog
Karina’s question… Could you please tell me what the ingredient is in foundation that makes your face look much whiter in photos?!?! Is it just one ingredient, or a combination? Could you recommend any brands which don’t do this? Thanks.
The Right Brain’s response:
Karina, we’ve never heard of this problem before but [...]
Everything’s Coming Up Roses For The Organic Pharmacy.
Submitted by Organic Beauty View Blog
I used to think the smell of roses was something my grandmother might like but certainly wouldn’t pass the test of my modern girl olfactory senses. How wrong could I be! If you’ve ever plunged your nose into a fresh, powdery rose bloom on a warm day, you’ll know what [...]
